"rap" news and stories

The news about rapper Snoop Dogg signing a deal with Platinum One Media to launch a new line of foot long hot dogs Snoop Doggs isn't droppin' like it's hot off the presses. It came out some time before the holidays in the Boston Herald. However, the fact that the Snoop Doggs will be released into Boston area markets this month - that's hot.

Snoop Dogg has partnered with Franco Petrucci and Jeff Earp for this new hip hop dog venture. Though I question the experience of the leader of Tha Dogg Pound Gang, Earp is the former owner of Joe & Nemo's a popular hot dog business in Massachusetts. I guess Snoop's not messing around.

I'll probably give them a try once they hit the California market. You know, I've gotta support the Westsiiiiiiide and Snoop's from LA (Long Beach, to be exact, but I'm not a fanatic or anything).

No, I haven't tried these, or even seen them but I'm curious. Apparently, they are mainly available on the East Coast. The chips come in flavors like "Lil Romeo"Bar-B-Quin with Honey" and "Young Bloodz" Southern Crunk BBQ. Rap Snacks bill themselves as the official snacks of Hip-Hop. The names are fabulous. "Dirt McGirt" Sour Cream and Onion anyone?
