Snoop Dogg Drops ‘Iz It a Crime’ Album Featuring Sexyy Red, Wiz Khalifa & Pharrell: Stream It Now

Snoop Dogg’s longevity, work ethic and versatility can’t be matched by many — if any — in the hip-hop realm. The Death Row legend returned on Thursday (May 14) with his 21st studio album, Iz It a Crime?
The project boasts 21 tracks with features from stars like Pharrell Williams, Sexyy Red, Wiz Khalifa, Charlie Bereal, Jane Handcock, October London and more. The title track from the LP fittingly samples Sade’s “Is It a Crime.”
Snoop stopped by The Breakfast Club on Wednesday (May 14) where he detailed how he’s still feeling inspired to drop music at a high level even over 30 years into his Hall-of-Fame career.
“I’m an MC and I love to rap and I love to make music, and people love my voice and they love when I make great records,” Snoop said. “When I don’t make great records, people let me know that as well.”
The Long Beach native continued: “I hear all of that and it makes me say to myself, ‘I should treat myself like a musician and not like a rapper.’ If you a musician, you can make music until you die, but when you’re a rapper they try to put a cap on you.”
Snoop Dogg also previewed an accompanying movie for Iz It a Crime? during a private screening in NYC on Tuesday (May 13), but it’s unclear when exactly the film will arrive.
It’s been a busy six months for the 53-year-old mogul. He reunited with Dr. Dre for Missionary in December, as the joint album debuted at No. 20 on the Billboard 200.
The Death Row gospel label compilation, Altar Call, which arrived in April and was dedicated to Snoop’s late mother, also saw contributions from The Doggfather.
