Drop It Like It’s Hot

He’s released ten studio albums, won a bunch of awards, and starred in more films than most actors over the past sixteen years; now Snoop’s music has found its way onto the Rock Band music store. This makes him the first rap artist to achieve this feat.

"I consider myself an OG gamer, and to be chosen as the first hip hop artist to appear in Rock Band...well, it doesn't get any better than that, ya dig?!?" Snoop said in a press release. "I know my fans gonna get down with tha Pound with this one and tha youngsters really gonna realize who started this gamer ish, u hear me?!?"

*Clears throat* Moving on…

The songs on offer are: Beautiful, Drop It Like It’s Hot, Ridin’ In My Chevy, Sensual Seduction, Snoop’s Upside Ya Head, Tha Shiznit, That’s Tha Homie and Who Am I (What’s My Name)? The latter will also be feature in the upcoming DJ Hero 2 as part of a remix. A video game his music is perhaps more suited in.

The songs will be available from September 7 on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii, with the exception of That’s Tha Homie, which arrives a week later on PlayStation 3.

Does rap music belong in rhythm games?
