“When Van Toffler [President of MTV's Music/Films/Logo groups] and I sat down Boss to Boss, a global quintuple threat takeover was masterminded,” Snoop explained in a statement. “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,” he added. “‘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 mindstate of the most prolific, authentic game spitter. And tha sh*t is funny, so show me da money!”
Snoop also announced details of a new album, ‘Malice In Wonderland’, to be released later this year, while songs from his back catalogue will become part of ‘Rock Band’.
