Snoop Dogg
Calvin Cordozar Broadus, Jr. (born October 20, 1971), best known by his stage name Snoop Dogg (formerly Snoop Doggy Dogg) and now also using an alter ego pseudonym Snoop Lion, is an American rapper/reggae singer, record producer, and actor. Snoop is best known as a rapper in the West Coast hip hop scene, and for being one of Dr. Dre’s most notable protégés. Snoop Lion was a Crip gang member while in high school. Shortly after graduation, he was arrested for cocaine possession and spent six months in Wayside County Jail. His music career began in 1992 after his release when he was discovered by Dr. Dre. He collaborated on several tracks on Dre’s solo debut, The Chronic and on the titular theme song to the film Deep Cover.
