Remembering Mama
For those who may not know, Snoop’s mom, who passed away in October 2021, played a pivotal role in shaping his life and music. She was a church choir director and instilled in him the values he shares with the world today. “The spirit of my mother will forever live within me,” he reflected. That’s some deep love right there!
The Album’s Essence
Describing “Altar Call,” Snoop says it’s “a reflection of what she has taught me — to use my voice and my platform to spread love and heal the world.” He likens this album to “another chapter out of the Bible of Love,” referencing his 2018 gospel record, “Bible of Love.” What an incredible way to keep her memory alive!
Exclusive Collaborations
And it doesn’t stop there! The album features performances from talented artists like Jamie Foxx and the Death Row Mass Choir! Talk about a powerhouse collaboration! The excitement builds as we await the release of the first track, “Mother I Miss You,” followed by another single set to drop on April 18. This album is shaping up to be a celebration of love and remembrance.
A Personal Touch

In a fun twist, Snoop’s iconic stage name was actually inspired by his love for the Peanuts character Snoopy! Can you believe that? “I watched so much, I started to look like him,” he said during an interview. It’s fantastic how personal experiences intertwine with his artistic journey!
