Snoop Dogg‘s new album The Algorithm is shaping up to be the hottest party in town with a guestlist of featured artists from Def Jam Recordings’ past, present and future. The project arrives Nov. 19.
The 25-track compilation record is stacked with featured artists including Usher, Dave East, Jadakiss, Fabolous, Mary J Blige, Ice Cube, E-40, Wiz Khalifa, and more.
The album also features a collaboration between Snoop, Ice Cube, E-40 and Too Short – also known as the supergroup Mt. Westmore. In a recent interview with Rolling Stone Music Now, the rapper revealed that the group recruited Eminem for a new song on their next album set for release in January.
“I feel like it was necessary for me to not let it drag on, but to put some resolution to it because I was the reason why it became what it was. I felt like I could be the reason to stop it,” he explained of reconciling with Eminem. “For the sake of the family and the sake of my love for him and Dre and what we built, that was the only thing to do.”
The Algorithm marks the rapper’s first release for Def Jam since being appointed as an executive creative consultant at the label.
“There’s so much talent on this record, so many styles of music, it breaks the algorithm,” Snoop said in a statement. “Right now, the algorithm is telling us you have to rap this way, you have to sound this way, but they’re not telling you how it’s supposed to feel. My algorithm is going to give you a feeling, not a sound.”
