April 18, 2022 Snoop Dogg made the revelation about the Death Row catalog during an episode of Drink Champs and explained why he took them down. Snoop Dogg explained why his first act as the new owner of Death Row Records was removing most of the labels catalog from streaming platforms. The west coast legend discussed the move with N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN during a recent episode of Drink Champs . First thing I did was snatch all the music off those platforms traditionally known to people, because those platforms dont pay, Snoop Dogg revealed. And those platforms get millions of millions of streams, and nobody gets paid other than the record labels. So what I wanted to do is snatch my music off, create a platform similar to Amazon, Netflix, Hulu. Itll be a Death Row app, and the music, in the meantime, will live in the metaverse. Snoop Doog Said Its All About Power & Control He added that he did it on purpose, because hes taking back power and control. He then went on to discuss how even the most popular musicians only make a fraction of a cent for every stream.
