SNOOP LION; The Artist Formerly Known As Snoop Dogg
After spending some recent time in Jamaica, Snoop Dogg returned a Lion; after a religious and artistic awakening. Rastafarian priests bestowed the, "Snoop Lion" name upon the former Rap superstar when he visited Jamaica in his search for "a new path."
"I didn't know that until I went to the temple, where the High Priest asked me what my name was, and I said, 'Snoop Dogg' And he looked me in my eyes and said, 'No more. You are the light; you are the lion.' From that moment on, it's like I had started to understand why I was there," he explained at a press conference.
Snoop, born Calvin Cordozar Broadus, Jr., has always felt a special connection with Jamaica's most celebrated music legend, according to news.com.au. "I have always said I was Bob Marley reincarnated," says Lion. "I feel I have always been a Rastafari. I just didn't have my third eye open, but it's wide open right now."
This spiritual journey has seemingly opened another chapter in Lion's artistic career. After years in the Rap, Hip-Hop, Pop industry, the scene started to go flat for the 40-year-old musician. Ever since the beginning, Snoop has been a gangster/pimp icon in the rap world.. But Lion welcomes musical change and growth.
"I've been on the top ever since I've been in it," he explained. "I got rap songs that will never die. And that ain't with no disrespect but I'm tired of rap."
"I've been on the top ever since I've been in it," he explained. "I got rap songs that will never die. And that ain't with no disrespect but I'm tired of rap."
While in the studio, Lion proclaimed his new self as someone completely different from his old persona saying, "F*** Snoop Dogg. Don't think about none of the s*** he rapped about: hustling and making money and drug-dealing and shooting. All that s***'ll be out of here."
Lion explained that ever since his start in the Rap industry, he has always wanted to be able to perform for the children and his grandparents, however the dialogue of past performances were not necessarily appropriate for such a crowd.
"I'm a wise man in the music industry," he said. "Not that I'll never do rap again because I'm always gonna do what I love, but right now I'm Snoop Lion and I'm having fun with this reggae movement so hopefully you guys will enjoy it as well."
Keep you eyes out for Vice Films' upcoming documentary showing Snoop's recent transformation from Snoop Dogg to Snoop Lion. This documentary will be featured at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 7 of this year.
