After a 2013 trip to Jamaica, rap legend Snoop Dogg returned to the game as Snoop Lion, ending a two-year hiatus from recording with the release of Reincarnated, his 12th studio album. At his 2013 live concerts, Snoop treated ticket buyers to his signature smooth flow, pumping audiences up and keeping them on their feet with extended sets of his greatest hits alongside recent favorites like "Sensual Seduction" and "Wet." Reincarnated has earned critical acclaim as a brilliant transition from Snoop Dogg and hip-hop to Snoop Lion and reggae, and saw Snoop collaborate with a wide variety of artists, including Miley Cyrus on "Ashtrays and Heartbreaks" and Drake on "No Guns Allowed."
Snoop has sold over 30 million albums worldwide since his debut in 1993, when he first collaborated with record producer Dr. Dre on his debut album Doggystyle. The album was an overnight success, landing at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and producing some of the most iconic rap hits of the decade, including "What's My Name" and "Gin and Juice." The two would continue to work together for the next two decades, resulting in a series of critically acclaimed albums including The Doggfather, Ego Trippin', and Malice in Wonderland. With 15 Grammy nominations under his belt, Snoop has become one of rap music's most notable figures, and one of the top sellers in the genre. Snoop Lion's Reincarnated tour in 2014 will feature shows all over the world, including California, New Zealand and Australia. Fans can catch the freshly reincarnated Snoop on tour in 2014; his name may have changed, but his ability to put on one of the most entertaining shows in music hasn't.
