Snoop Dogg & The Game Join Forces and Hit the Road for a US Tour: How the West Was One

SANTA MONICA, Calif., March 31 /PRNewswire/ -- Snoop Dogg hits the road with The Game on what could be the hottest hip-hop tour this year; How The West Was One Tour.

Snoop Dogg continues to back the platinum selling Geffen Records release R&G: (Rhythm & Gangsta) The Masterpiece. The set features guest appearances from 50 Cent, Justin Timberlake, Nelly, Lil Jon, Trina, Bootsy Collins, Charlie Wilson, and The Neptunes. Snoop's talents know no bounds; his notoriety and instantly recognizable persona and voice have garnered him numerous other opportunities and successes. In addition to being an icon in hip-hop, Snoop is accomplished as an actor, MTV Show Host, and sneaker designer launching the line, doggy biscuitz by pony.

Joining Snoop is Compton, California rapper The Game. The Game released his first CD, The Documentary, in early 2005 giving us the smash singles "How We Do" and "Hate It or Love It." The Game is hitting the road behind his debut solo effort, "The Documentary," which surfaced in January with the biggest opening week of any January since Nielson Soundscan began tracking sales. The set sold about 587,000 copies during its first week out, which earned it a No. 1 debut on The Billboard 200 album chart.

Both rappers are known to be from the West coast and both were influenced early on in their careers by the guiding hand of Dr. Dre, Compton's own and one of the founding members of NWA.
