KANYE TO BE ON ‘KARDASHIAN’ TV SHOW
I don’t care about these two but I kept hearing about them last year that I thought everyone knew the deal. Anyway, now that everyone knows what we knew in 09 (Click here for the 2009 article).

NEW BOOK: SNOOP DOGG’S – ‘ROLLING PAPERS’
I am a fan of Snoop Dogg, I remember countless days in high school and nights in clubs rapping along with his songs but that is not why I am buying his new book. It is the business mind within me and the appreciation for a true synergy between a product and its message that have made fall in love with this book. In essence, this book captures the very aura and mantra of Snoop and his greatest past time before you even read it. Check out the book’s description and then hear the Dogg Father speak on his book.
A few days after announcing a new 4/20 sneaker collaboration between Curren$y and Diamond Supply Co., the Doggfather himself, Snoop Dogg, has announced an “eco-friendly” product for purchase later this year when his new book, Rolling Words: A Smokable Songbook, hits store-shelves.
The miniature-sized book that will be available for purchase this summer contains a number of pages filled with lyrics to some of Snoop’s most memorable songs like “Gin and Juice,” “Beautiful,” “From Tha Chuuuch To Tha Palace,” “Snoop Dogg”, and many more.
The pages themselves are smokeable and made from the same paper that is used in Snoop’s very own king-sized slim rolling papers (which are available now), while the book and its cover are made from hemp and twine.
That’s not all, though, folks. The spine of Rolling Words: A Smoklable Songbook contains a surface that can be used to strike a match for those unfortunate nights when you don’t have a lighter by your side.
“I made this book so people can always remember: you can roll with an expert, you can roll with Snoop.”
P.S.
I see the grey is coming in Snoop. Another testimony of your time tested influence.
