Following in the footsteps of other famous stoner musicians -- ahem Willie Nelson -- Snoop Dogg has announced that he will be releasing a reggae album later this year titled Reincarnated. To go with his new sound, Snoop will go by a new name for this project: Snoop Lion. If that sparks your curiosity check out his new single "La La La" below and let us know if you dig it, or if you are more of a hip-hop fan.

ROLLINGSTONE.COM reports:
Snoop Dogg will be making a foray into reggae on his next LP, Pitchfork reports.

Reggae

As a musician, Hip Hop artists aren't musicians, it's a different type of performance which does take talent, but not musical talent. Reggae is real music and a challenge for me to play because I don't have the need for it very often, but do enjoy listening to it.

Hip-Hop

Neither one is my fave type of music, but Snoop Dogg rose to fame when I was at that perfect age....him and Dre will always be classic to me, bringing back great memories of the best rap ever!!! I'd rather just remember him like that.......Snoop Lion...I hate it...he will always be Snoop Dogg to me!

Is anyone else offended by Snoop's fake Jamaican accent? The Police didn't need one.

Actually, I like Ska, the predecessor to reggae.

I'm Jamaican and I think Snoop pulled it off nicely, we love it when Americans try to imitate us. it's the stupid Jamaicans I don't like that use the American accent every time they go abroad, they pretend that they weren't born on Jamaican soil. and their phony accent is full of effort and sounds so fake. people should speak naturally in the constraints of they own tone and pitch.

The Police didn't need to pull off a fake accent and yet Bob Marley loved them. He said they were doing reggae properly.

Oh well. To each his own.

snoop is about the only "hip hop" I like but Reggae is cool..I remember when I was in the Virgin Islands, I listened to a bunch of reggae, it totally set the tone....It's not something I like to listen to on a cold winters day though, but I will :-)
