Snoop Dogg’s Necklace Gift

While some social media users debated whether Snoop Dogg was the right fit for a coach on “The Voice,” others quickly noticed a special gesture he made during the show — gifting contestants with necklaces that carried deep personal and cultural significance.

The necklace in question was a Death Row Records chain adorned with the iconic logo of the hip-hop record label. This wasn’t just any piece of jewelry; it symbolized a pivotal era in hip-hop’s history and Snoop Dogg’s journey within it.

Founded in 1991 by Dr. Dre, Suge Knight, The D.O.C., and Dick Griffey, Death Row Records was a powerhouse in shaping the West Coast hip-hop scene. The label was responsible for launching the careers of several rap legends, including Snoop Dogg.

His breakout came in the early ’90s when Death Row secured a deal to contribute to the soundtrack of the 1992 film “Deep Cover.” The title track, featuring Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg, was Snoop’s first release following Dr. Dre’s departure from N.W.A.

From there, the label produced monumental albums like Dr. Dre’s “The Chronic,” Snoop Dogg’s “Doggystyle,” and 2Pac’s “All Eyez on Me.” However, after years of success, Death Row Records struggled with internal turmoil, especially after the murder of Tupac Shakur and the departure of key artists, including Snoop Dogg.

The label eventually filed for bankruptcy in 2006 and changed ownership several times before the rapper purchased it in 2022, reclaiming the label that had launched his career.

It was a full-circle moment for the rapper, who had received his own Death Row chain from Suge Knight decades earlier. Now, as the label’s owner, he continued the tradition by offering the same gift to aspiring artists, marking their passage into the world of music under his mentorship.
