SNOOP DOGG BRINGS DEATH ROW CATALOG BACK TO STREAMING: 'THE TIME HAS COME'
Snoop Dogg, the West Coast rap legend who owns Death Row Records, has announced that the label's catalog will be returning to streaming services. The move follows Snoop's removal of some of Death Row's catalog from major streaming services almost a year ago due to gripes about artist payouts. Fans can now access classic '90s rap releases such as Dr. Dre's The Chronic, Snoop Dogg's Doggystyle and Tha Doggfather, 2Pac's All Eyez On Me and The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory, and Tha Dogg Pound's Dogg Food. Doggystyle is missing "Gz Up, Hoes Down," along with many of its skits and interludes. The return of Death Row's catalog comes via a joint venture between Snoop Dogg and gamma, the new music company launched by former Apple and Interscope executive Larry Jackson. The partnership will also include two new albums from Snoop himself, one of which could be Missionary, the joint LP with Dr. Dre he announced last year. The project is expected to arrive in 2023 to coincide with the 30th anniversary of Doggystyle.
