Snoop reveals plans to bring 213’s The Hard Way and Nate Dogg’s unreleased material to streaming platforms
Snoop Dogg has big plans for the legacy of 213, the supergroup he formed with Nate Dogg and Warren G, as well as for the late Nate Dogg’s extensive collection of unreleased music. During a recent appearance on The Bootleg Kev Podcast, Snoop shared his intention to reclaim and remaster 213’s debut album, The Hard Way, with hopes of releasing it through Death Row Records, the label he now controls.
Snoop explained that TVT Records, which originally held the rights to the album, went bankrupt, making it difficult to release the project. Now, with the opportunity to regain control, Snoop plans to remaster and release The Hard Way through Death Row, bringing it to a new generation of listeners.
Additionally, Snoop spoke about Nate Dogg’s unreleased music, revealing that both Warren G and Fredwreck have a substantial amount of material from Nate that has yet to see the light of day. He explained how Nate had a tireless work ethic, similar to 2Pac, and recorded countless songs with various collaborators, including Warren G and Fredwreck. Snoop expressed his desire to release some of this unreleased material through Death Row, a tribute to Nate Dogg’s enduring influence on hip-hop.
Snoop also emphasized his strong relationship with Nate Dogg’s mother, Miss Ruth, adding that she supports the idea of bringing Nate’s music to fans properly and respectfully. Fans of Nate Dogg, Warren G, and Snoop Dogg can likely expect some exciting new releases from the iconic West Coast trio shortly.
