Snoop Doggy Dogg
Biography
Cordozar Kelvin Broadus Jr., known all over the world as Snoop Doggy Dogg or Snoop Dogg, was born in California in 1971. Kelvin got his love for music from his father, who played in a gospel band in 60's. His relatives called him Snoopy for his fondness of cartoons and clothing style. The artist played the piano and sang in a local choir in his childhood. However, the youth became a real rioter in the high school and joined to the local bandit gang Crips. Several cousins of the future artist were rap performers. Snoop Doggy Dogg organized a band with one of them, titling it 213 - which is the Long Beach code of that time. One of the relatives arranged a meeting of Snoop Doggy Dogg and Dr. Dre. The famous producer and musician got interested in the young man. Dr. Dre invited him to the Death Row Records, where Snoop Doggy Dogg took part in recording his album The Chronic. The artist met and made friends with Tupak Shakur at the same place.
