SNOOP DOGG says Death Row Records CEO SUGE KNIGHT took advantage of him for years and he rips him on his upcoming album "Paid Tha Cost To Be Da Boss" calling Suge "the devil." He also disses KURUPT and XZIBIT on the CD. The album will be released November 26th and features JAY-Z, REDMAN, NATE DOGG, THE NEPTUNES, and DJ PREMIER from GANG STARR. Snoop is now on the charts with the album "Snoop Dogg Presents…Doggy Style Allstars, Welcome To That House Volume One" which is number seventeen this week.
Uh-oh, y'all. We might be ready to lose Snoop too!
Redman and Method Man will star in an untitled comedy about the Army. The movie will be produced by Paramount Pictures and MTV Films. Redman's manager says the plot will involve the two rappers joining the military and getting sent on a special mission. Dustin Lee Abraham, who penned Red and Meth's college comedy "How High," will write the script for this flick. But Redman and Method Man have two more movies to make before the Army picture. They'll play up-and-coming rappers in "Ghetto, Inc." and – in a major twist of irony -- they'll appear as undercover DEA agents in another movie that's still being written.

In addition to Janet, the record features guest appearances by Stevie Wonder, Prince, Missy Elliott, the late Aaliyah and even Michael Jackson.
