Snoop Dogg recently announced that his new album would be produced by Dr. Dre. Snoop dropped the bombshell during a recent appearance on Stephen A. Smith’s Know Mercy podcast, where he revealed the project is called Missionary and is due to be finished in November, although it’s unclear how soon it will be released.
Snoop and Dre last joined forces on the former’s first album Doggystyle, which extended the winning partnership they formed on 1992’s The Chronic — to record-breaking sales.
While speaking on the podcast, Dogg said:
“I’ma tell you this, you’re the first one to hear this: me and Dr. Dre have been working on an album for the past two months. And it’ll be done in November. It’s produced by Dr. Dre, it’s our 30th anniversary to Doggystyle. And the name of the album is Missionary.”
The host Smith then asks, “Why the name?”
The first album was Doggystyle,” the rap legend replied.
“That is beautiful. I love it, man,” Smith continued.
This year’s Super Bowl halftime show proved that the Snoop Dogg-Dr. Dre partnership remains alive and well.
At the premiere of his new movie, ‘Day Shift’ the legendary rapper told ET:
“I don’t wanna talk about it too much, but we’re back together again. It’s been 30 years since we worked on a record, and we’re doin’ something, we’re workin’ on something.”
