Cordozar Calvin Broad… Read Full Bio ↴Snoop Dogg has changed his name to Snoop Lion.
Cordozar Calvin Broadus Jr. (born October 20, 1971 in Long Beach, California, United States), better known by his stage name Snoop Dogg, is a Grammy award nominated rapper, producer and actor. Snoop is best known as a famous MC in the West Coast hip hop scene, and for being one of producer Dr. Dre's most notable protégés. He made his rap debut in 1992 on Dre's debut album The Chronic, and then released his debut album, Doggystyle, to much critical and public acclaim. His mother nicknamed him "Snoopy" as a child, and he took the stage name Snoop Doggy Dogg when he began recording. He changed his name to Snoop Dogg in 1996 when he left his original record label, Death Row Records, and signed with No Limit Records.
He has been affiliated with the Crips, a U.S. street gang. Several of his cousins, including RBX, Nate Dogg, Daz Dillinger, and Warren G are also hip hop artists and often collaborate with Snoop. In 2000, Snoop (as "Michael J. Corleone") directed Snoop Dogg's Doggystyle, a pornographic film produced by Hustler. This film, combining hip-hop with X-rated material, was a huge success and won "Top Selling Release of the Year" at the 2002 AVN Awards. Driven by this success, Snoop directed Snoop Dogg's Hustlaz: Diary of a Pimp in 2002 (this time using the nickname "Snoop Scorsese").
As a rapper, he is perhaps best known for his “lazy drawl” — a slurred, distinctively calm, laid-back, and rhythmically-complex lyrical delivery. His lyrics have often been criticized for their glorification of misogyny, violence and gangsterism; however, he is often credited for accurately portraying street slang and attitudes.
Here Comes the King

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That the warriors are coming and we no play
We at war with the army of haters
And when we kill em we just smoke 'em like papers
Somebody get me my crown cause I'm feeling it now
You might be a lord, but here comes the king
Here I come a steppin' inna the dance
Posted up the wall here inna mi stance

We never fail, we only shine with brilliance
One king one faith one religion
And if you hear me come and join the revolution
One king one faith one religion
And if you hear me come and join the revolution
We at war with the army of haters
And when we kill em we just smoke em like papers
Somebody get me my crown cause I'm feeling it now
You might be a lord, but here comes the king
You might be a lord, but here comes the king
They gonna love me
Call me black chutney
All gold chrome with the diamonds in the back
Lil homies in the front don't know how to act
We comin' deep and you never see us smiling
10 million strong and it will rumble when we are riding
Two shots up for my Africans
Been around the world and back again
Feel so good gotta let me in
Power to the people let em kiss the ring
Bow, here comes the king
We at war with the army of haters
And when we kill em we just smoke em like papers
Somebody get me my crown cause I'm feeling it now
You might be a lord, but here comes the king
You might be a lord, but here comes the king
They know me in Japan and Pakistan
Ganja makes me lord of all the land
I'm royalty no need for me to wear a crown
Born a rebel then I became a man
I heard a voice, he said that I would understand
One king one faith one religion
And if you love me come and join the revolution
One king one faith one religion
And if you love me come and join the revolution
We at war with the army of haters
And when we kill em we just smoke em like papers
Somebody get me my crown cause I'm feeling it now
You might be a lord, but here comes the king
