In addition to eying a future that involves virtual cannabis (why not?), Snoop recently released the comp Snoop Dogg Presents Death Row Summer 2022, which comes on the heels of his purchasing the iconic label and removing its catalog from streaming services.
As the video suggests, both rappers have dipped into the NFT space. Em purchased an NFT from OpenSea's NFT marketplace and became a member of the Bored Ape Yacht Club, while Snoop was announced a big-time investor in Moonpay, who has also teamed up with the rapper's recently acquired Death Row Records to create an NFT marketplace.

The music video to this track, which one James Larese directed, is in part animated and in that sense features characters from a brand known as Bored Ape. The Bored Ape Yacht Club, as said entity is called in full, is not only an exclusive group but more to the point a collection of high-end NFT cartoon characters that a number of A list celebrities have patronized. Both Eminem and Snoop are on that list. And in fact, it has been reported that Marshall paid nearly half-a-million dollars for his Bored Ape avatar. Moreover, said avatars were heavily utilized during the rappers aforementioned MTV VMA (primarily-virtual) performance.
Em and Snoop have teamed up before, on "Bitch Please II," a posse cut from Eminem's 2000 album "The Marshall Mathers LP," which also featured Dr. Dre, Xzibit and Nate Dogg. "From The D 2 The LBC," which hit streaming services on Friday, is the first time the pair has co-headlined a song together.
