The Kid Skoob — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 14:00:02 +0000

Snoop proved he's still got the skills that's made him one of the greatest MC's of all-time when he completely annihilated the freestyle session on The Come Up Show. Shortly thereafter he released some new music alongside Tha Dogg Pound, "Make It Hot," who will be releasing both an album, Alumni, as well as the D.P.G.C'OLOGY mixtape.

Now the Doggfather is moving forward with his own work, and took to Twitter to make the announcement of his new studio album.

While we await a release date on the project, we can surely look forward to the Vice Party Legend, providing entertainment in all forms. More specifically, giving advice on relationships, as he did with NJ Nets Forward, Kris Humphries, after his recent divorce with Kim Kardashian.
