Snoop Dogg is reportedly planning to release a full gospel album in 2018.
According to reports, while the project has yet to be named, Snoop has been teasing the gospel project since June.
Speaking on the project, Snoop says it was inspired by his mother, who gave her stamp of approval for the album.
Snoop Dogg may have gotten his start in hip-hop, but over the years he’s become one of music’s most notorious nomads. His ceaseless exploratory enthusiasm is one of the reasons he’s been a mainstay in music for so long. In both solo projects and collaborations, Snoop has tested nearly every genre, from country to disco, to old-school West Coast hip-hop, to reggae and now gospel.
In 2013, Snoop temporarily rebranded himself as Snoopzilla for a collaborative album with California funk musician Dam-Funk. While Snoop always had pretty evident funk influences, 7 Days of Funk was his first full-blown foray into the genre. The name Snoopzilla was inspired by Parliament-Funkadelic’s Bootsy Collins, who went by Bootzilla.
In perhaps his most famous cross-genre experiment, Snoop Dogg changed his name to Snoop Lion and took on reggae. After a pilgrimage to Jamaica, Snoop re-emerged with a documentary film and a reggae album, both titled Reincarnated. “I have always said I was Bob Marley reincarnated.”
