SNOOP DOGGY DOGG
Snoop Dogg, originally Snoop Doggy Dogg (born Calvin Cordozar Broadus, Jr.; October 20, 1971) is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, record producer, television personality and actor. His music career began in 1992 when he was discovered by Dr. Dre, and as a result he was featured on Dre’s solo debut, “Deep Cover”, and then on Dr. Dre’s solo debut album, The Chronic. Snoop’s debut album, Doggystyle, produced by Dr. Dre and released in 1993 through Death Row Records, debuted at number one on both the Billboard 200 and Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts. He has since sold over 23 million albums in the United States and 35 million albums worldwide. Snoop holds the dubious distinction of having 17 Grammy nominations without a win. (More from Wikipedia)
Snoop Dogg (originally Snoop Doggy Dogg) was discovered in 1992 by one of the bandmembers in N.W.A., Dr. Dre; he has been seemingly omnipresent in the entertainment scene ever since. Snoop became known for his nearly unintelligible, mumbled speeches at music awards shows and other such, often featuring his own vocabulary, such as “fo shizzle”.
