Jay-Z delved into the stories and life experiences behind his most beloved songs in his book Decoded. Wu-Tang’s the RZA has written two books on philosophy and spirituality. Now Snoop Dogg is out with a book of his own, and though it’s not what you’d expect a piece of written work to be, it’s exactly what you’d expect from the D-O-double-G.
Snoop is releasing Rolling Words: A Smokable Songbook, which is made of the rapper’s new Kingsize Slim Rolling Papers, featuring lyrics to classic songs like “Gin and Juice,” “Still a G Thang” and “What’s My Name.”
“This thing can also be smoked with some of your finest, where you at or however you at,” Snoop explains in a promo video. The book is made of hemp material, a twine cover and perforated rolling-paper pages, and you can even strike a match across the spine, thanks to its special surface — multipurpose!
Laid-back, with his mind on his money and his money on his mind, indeed. He’s a hustler, that one.
