AceShowbiz - Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre are back together for the first time in nearly three decades with the release of their new album "Missionary". Dropped on December 13, the album captures the magic that made their initial collaboration, "Doggystyle", a landmark in hip-hop history.
The excitement around 'Missionary', produced entirely by Dr. Dre, has been building ever since Snoop Dogg announced the project on social media. In the promotional video, two Mormon missionaries are humorously greeted by a lingerie-clad woman who quips, "What the f**k? Your ad said you were dedicated to missionary work," setting the tone for the highly anticipated sequel.
"Missionary" features a star-studded lineup including some surprising collaborations. The album includes previously released singles "Gorgeous" featuring Jhene Aiko, "Outta da Blue" featuring Alus, and "Another Part of Me" featuring Sting. "Gorgeous" even brought the iconic West Coast duo back to Billboard's R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart for the first time in 13 years, debuting at No. 29 and peaking at No. 26.
This album marks the first full-length project together for Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre since Snoop's 1993 debut studio album "Doggystyle", which topped both the Billboard 200 and Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts. "Doggystyle" was a commercial success, breaking records and earning a Grammy nomination for its hit single, "Gin and Juice."
