Snoop's debut album, Doggystyle, produced by Dr. Dre and released in 1993 by Death Row Records, debuted at number one on both the Billboard 200 and Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts. Selling almost a million copies in the first week of its release, Doggystyle became certified 4× platinum in 1994 and spawned several hit singles, including "What's My Name?" and "Gin & Juice". In 1994 Snoop released a soundtrack on Death Row Records for the short film Murder Was the Case, starring himself. His second album, Tha Doggfather (1996), also debuted at number one on both charts, with "Snoop's Upside Ya Head" as the lead single. The album was certified double platinum in 1997.
After leaving Death Row Records, Snoop signed with No Limit Records, where he recorded his next three albums, Da Game Is to Be Sold, Not to Be Told (1998), No Limit Top Dogg (1999), and Tha Last Meal (2000). Snoop then signed with Priority/Capitol/EMI Records in 2002, where he released Paid tha Cost to Be da Boss. He then signed with Geffen Records in 2004 for his next three albums, R&G (Rhythm & Gangsta): The Masterpiece, Tha Blue Carpet Treatment, and Ego Trippin'. Malice 'n Wonderland (2009), and Doggumentary (2011) were released on Priority. Snoop Dogg has starred in motion pictures and hosted several television shows, including Doggy Fizzle Televizzle, Snoop Dogg's Father Hood, and Dogg After Dark. He also coaches a youth football league and a high school football team. In September 2009 Snoop was hired by EMI as the chairman of reactivated Priority Records.
In 2012, after a trip to Jamaica, Snoop announced a conversion to Rastafarianism and a new alias, Snoop Lion. As Snoop Lion he released a reggae album, Reincarnated, and a documentary film of the same name, about his Jamaican experience, in early 2013. His 13th studio album, Bush, was released in May 2015 and marked a return of the Snoop Dogg name. His 14th solo studio album, Coolaid, was released in July 2016. Snoop has 17 Grammy nominations without a win.
In 2018, he released his first gospel album, Bible of Love.
Kool Moe Dee ranks Snoop at No. 33 in his book There's a God on the Mic, and says he has "an ultra-smooth, laidback delivery" and "flavor-filled melodic rhyming". Peter Shapiro describes Snoop's delivery as a "molasses drawl" and AllMusic notes his "drawled, laconic rhyming" style. Kool Moe Dee refers to Snoop's use of vocabulary, saying he "keeps it real simple...he simplifies it and he's effective in his simplicity".
Snoop is known to freestyle some of his lyrics on the spot for some songs – in the book How to Rap, Lady of Rage says, "Snoop Dogg, when I worked with him earlier in his career, that's how created his stuff... he would freestyle, he wasn't a writer then, he was a freestyler," and The D.O.C. states, "Snoop's [rap] was a one take willy, but his shit was all freestyle. He hadn't written nothing down. He just came in and started busting. The song was "Tha Shiznit"—that was all freestyle. He started busting and when we got to the break, Dre cut the machine off, did the chorus and told Snoop to come back in. He did that throughout the record. That's when Snoop was in the zone then."
Peter Shapiro says that Snoop debuted on "Deep Cover" with a "shockingly original flow – which sounded like a Slick Rick born in South Carolina instead of South London" and adds that he "showed where his style came from by covering Slick Rick's 'La Di Da Di'". Referring to Snoop's flow, Kool Moe Dee calls him "one of the smoothest, funkiest flow-ers in the game". How to Rap also notes that Snoop is known to use syncopation in his flow to give it a laidback quality, as well as 'linking with rhythm' in his compound rhymes, using alliteration, and employing a "sparse" flow with good use of pauses.
Snoop re-popularized the use of -izzle speak, particularly in the pop and hip-hop music industry.
Snoop Dogg is a lifelong fan of professional wrestling. On March 30, 2008, Snoop Dogg appeared at WrestleMania XXIV as a Master of Ceremonies for a tag team match between Maria and Ashley Massaro as they took on Beth Phoenix and Melina. On a March 23, 2015 episode of Raw, Snoop Dogg appeared in a segment with Hulk Hogan and Curtis Axel. At WrestleMania 32, he accompanied his cousin Sasha Banks to the ring for her match, rapping over her theme music. He was also inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2016.
Broadus made a special guest appearance in All Elite Wrestling on the January 6, 2021, episode of AEW Dynamite, titled New Year's Smash. During this appearance, Snoop appeared in the corner of Cody Rhodes during Rhodes's match with Matt Sydal. He later gave Serpentico a Frog Splash, with Rhodes then delivering a three-count.
Snoop Dogg would join The Miz to host both nights of WrestleMania 39. During Night 1, he accompanied Rey Mysterio in a lowrider during his entrance, paying tribute to the late Eddie Guerrero. On Night 2, he introduced Shane McMahon to face The Miz in another spontaneous match. McMahon would sustain a quad injury during the match prompting Snoop Dogg to improvise and finish the match himself, ultimately defeating Miz. Snoop Dogg's improvisational acts were lauded by wrestlers and executives, including WWE chief content officer Triple H.

Eighty six box from the one they seven
New in Denver they beat the bust for ever

Poof cush what a cuff that's the truth

Lose flash at eleven
Lose your money quickly at the casino
Eighty six box from the one they seven
Remove any outdated and irrelevant items from a collection
New in Denver they beat the bust for ever
In Denver, they always defeat the competition
One call and make all your relatives forever
With just one phone call, secure the happiness of your entire family
Plus your clowns sound funny
Your friends or associates sound ridiculous
It's the deep out honey
It's a serious situation, my dear
Smash with a crash make you dash sound funny
Cause chaos and confusion with a sudden, comedic effect
So how the motherfucke you
So how the hell can you
Gonna pick your lips
Dare to disrespect
To disrespect truth when I run with crips
To disrespect the truth while I associate with my gang
And that move I know so uncut with it
And that action I'm familiar with, it's authentic
If you ain't from the lane
If you're not from the neighborhood
You never really did it
Then you've never truly experienced it
Pull it, five might make you call
Pull the trigger, it might cause you to cry out
And he burn your sould
And it destroys your spirit
Like stop dropping roll
Like the emergency technique to extinguish a fire
And I've be there, I've done that
I've been in those situations, I've experienced it
Play it loud
Assert yourself, make your presence known
Fall back motherfuckers get it off my could
Step aside and let me take control
Poof cush what a cuff that's the truth
Exhaling smoke, confirming the authenticity
When you smelling all the wide
When you're enjoying the good life
Make it sure you crufed
Make sure you're fully indulging
Smach down we play no crack now
We dominate, without any hesitation
Off the blunt, sort of like crack down
Away from the cannabis, similar to a crackdown
Anywhere I please to fill
Wherever I want to go and party
Hop back into the way never see to drift
Return to my comfort zone without losing sight of my goals
Capital weex stay screaming and use the mess
The capital's finest party, they scream and enjoy the chaos
I scream no doubt, I spell the rest out
I strongly express myself, I elaborate on the details
Into the O-O p that's way
Into the organized chaos, that's the trend
Johnny low on my bumper like see your side
Johnny Law is watching me closely, be aware
If you came here to bunty let me know it
If you came here to party, make it known
But that don't mean this time just start to show it baby
However, that doesn't mean we're starting right away, baby
Suddly you use the purpose
Suddenly, you lose your sense of direction
Still will shut this down
Nonetheless, we will put an end to this
Better move fast and catch it the nerve there
You better act quickly and grab the opportunity
All guessed up from the kimped team blast
Fully prepared and armed, ready to attack
Black white fast, then leave you in the trash
Taking action swiftly and ruthlessly, then dismissing you
Brain lay like truck please
Your mind is confused, like a broken truck
Believ where you bump
Believe in yourself, despite the challenges
West side it's the truck all we do is jump
On the west side, we're unstoppable and always active
At they point where you from don't matter
Your origin is irrelevant at this moment
And all that gatters, gatters are gun doubetr
All that matters is the action, doubting actions will get you harmed
I sold you no limite boy grow on stable
I warned you, there are no limits, only growth and stability
Walk down but now remove now
Follow calmly, but now leave discreetly
He rush the lable
He controls the record label
You run your mouth that means you ain't able
If you constantly talk without action, it means you're incapable
Slaim diamonds then brak you
Sparkling jewels will awe you, then destroy you
Brake your whole table so ugly means muggy
Break everything you have, leaving you in an unpleasant and gloomy state
But that 22 shoos on a brand new buggy
But this small pistol is on a brand new luxury car
And that costy but money get main
And although it's expensive, it brings in a lot of money
Long be, sit with like leats to make it fame
Long conversations with influential people to achieve fame
So patch it if you want it
So fix it if you desire it
I suggest you post on it
I recommend you make a public statement about it
Cuz when it's tured up fall back don't do me
Because when the situation escalates, step aside and don't bother me
We make it back ok drop it like it's hot
We recover and keep moving forward, drop it like it's hot
And bangel dummy
And let it bang, my friend
Just cuz I might stop it if you not
Just because I might intervene if you don't
Blue blazes, new faces
Exciting and unexpected, fresh and unknown individuals
Aliens from other space
Mysterious and extraordinary beings from another world
Get bean from the laces
Get hit suddenly and unexpectedly
Terradectacal move doww, get you done
An incredible move, it's impressive and will defeat you
So again I'mma show you how
So once again, I'll demonstrate and teach you
To wrestle with one
To confront and battle a single opponent
Hold on from scatter, that's be AC
Hold on and don't scatter, that's the air conditioning
Pull my stuned, shape on
Draw attention to my stunning appearance
Better I see they stress
It's best if I witness their distress
Cacth me back at AP-s zipping OI
Find me later at the AP-s zipping OI
So OG holly moly uncut that's how we ment it
So original, oh my goodness, uncut, that's exactly how we intended it
Simply rollie in the text and send it
Simply write your message and send it
Check your imbox just now it's been block
Check your inbox, it has just been blocked
Unorder wax tell her that gonna rocks
Unorganized lyrics will surprise her and rock her world
Let's move down like we're the fool
Let's move down low, as if we're the ones being tricked
Let's patch the fool and chase the moon
Let's deceive the fool and pursue our ambitions
All over the floor like round over lower
Creating chaos and disorder, like a rollercoaster
When he walk over here
When he approaches us
Simply means it's over
It simply means the situation is finished
Ooh just so you know put a sing on
Oh, just so you know, put a sign on
Your door cuz he close the store
Your door, because he's shutting down the party
Plus he stay on, I'm like there he go
Furthermore, he remains consistent, and I'm acknowledging his presence
Ut I known it matter still here for ever
But I know it doesn't matter, I'll still be here forever
That mean you still splat
That means you're still insignificant
She refuse me he might explode
If she rejects me, I might lose control
Then all over the roof cuz still we get to
Then it will be chaotic because we will have the power to do so
We both fliping to flow smooth
We both transition to a smooth and effortless flow
Damn ball skippin to cost room
Wow, the basketball is bouncing with speed and precision
Not much to say after cuz when
Nothing more needs to be said because when
You go then not coming back
Once you leave, there's no turning back
