Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre are celebrating the 30th anniversary of Doggystyle with two concerts at The Hollywood Bowl on June 27 and 28. Backed by the ReCollective Orchestra led by conductor Derrick Hodge, Snoop and Dre will be joined by a parade of special guests.
Doggstyle served as Snoop Dogg's debut solo album. Released in 1993 via Death Row/Interscope Records, the project featured Tha Dogg Pound, RBX and The Lady of Rage as well as production from Dr. Dre.
Doggystyle debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, selling 806,858 copies in its first week alone, a record for a debuting artist and the fastest-selling Hip Hop album ever at the time. The album was certified 4x-platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) by November 2015. The album had sold seven million copies in the United States and more than 11 million copies worldwide.
Both Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre have gone on to insurmountable success. Snoop recently acquired the Death Row brand and Dre sold his Beats company to Apple for millions, making him a bona fide billionaire.
Tickets to the Hollywood Bowl shows go on sale Friday (May 5) here.
