Snoop Dogg has signed a deal with MTV that will not only see him air his own show, but the company will also release his next album.
The rapper will star in new variety talk show premiering on MTV next week (Tuesday February 17th), titled 'Dogg After Dark'. The show will feature interviews with A-list celebrities and musicians, sketch-comedy segments and musical performances from the hottest artists.
The MTV Entertainment group will also release Snoop's new album 'Malice In Wonderland' and tracks will be available through the Rock Band video game. The record sees production from Dr Dre and Pharrell.
Snoop Dogg says of his deal: "When Van Toffler and I sat down Boss to Boss, a global quintuple threat takeover was masterminded. As the world of entertainment keeps changing, we felt it was the right time to let Snoop Dogg back on MTV so we could continue to run thangs with music, movies, DVDs and bring Hip-Hop to Rock Band."
"So screw ya wigz on tight and tune in on Tuesday nights for the first step to the next level of Snoop D-O double G. Dogg after Dark is the only nightclub tv show hosted by you know who. So take a journey with me through the mind, body, soul and musical mind state of the most prolific, authentic game spitter. And tha sh** is funny, so show me da money!"
Earlier this week Snoop Dogg announced he had parted ways with his former label Geffen / Interscope.
