Snoop Dogg announces 'Reincarnation'


We've just heard he's done it again. Snoop's back with his 20th studio album. To be called 'Reincarnation', the project will also come with a full length documentary.

We've got our hopes up high for this one...as long as the dogg stays away from the 'pop' temptations of David Guetta and delivers a solid west coast set of bangers, we'll be waiting.

In the meanwhile, check out our coverage of Regulate featuring Warren G and Snoop from this summer, live in London...
