Los Angeles, April 16 (NationPress) Rapper Snoop Dogg is returning to his spiritual foundations with his upcoming gospel album, "Altar Call", dedicated to his late mother, Beverly Tate, who passed away in 2021.
The album is set to launch on April 27 under Death Row Records.
"The spirit of my mother will forever live within me. This album is a reflection of what she has taught me - to use my voice and my platform to spread love and heal the world. Just another chapter out of the Bible of Love," Snoop Dogg expressed to Okayplayer.
The album boasts a diverse lineup of artists across 21 tracks, featuring talents like Jamie Foxx, Robert Glasper, Denaun Porter, Jazze Pha, Charlie Bereal, and October London. Additionally, it will showcase a special debut from the Death Row Mass Choir, according to aceshowbiz.com.
The album cover, highlighting an image of his mother Beverly Tate, emphasizes the profound personal connection the rapper has with this project.
As he honored his late mother, he stated, "U taught me how to read and write how to struggle and fight and all the facts of life. Now you finally got ya wings, mama."
This isn't Snoop Dogg's first foray into gospel music. In 2018, he released "Bible of Love."
Reflecting on his distinctive musical path, he noted, "This is not a money-driven project, it's a spirit-driven project. I've referred to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on most of my recordings, letting people know that I am a born-again Christian."
Snoop Dogg is currently gearing up for the debut of the lead single from "Altar Call", titled "Mother I Miss You", featuring John P. Kee, on April 18.
"Altar Call" is poised to be a "heartfelt testimony, a moment of reflection, faith, and community," embodying a universal message of grace and redemption.
