Snoop Lion Links With Miley Cyrus
The story of Snoop Dogg's transition into Snoop Lion now includes a Miley Cyrus chapter. The musical odd couple are paired on "Ashtrays and Heartbreaks" off the Lion's forthcoming Reincarnated album.
Cyrus sings the hook on the Major Lazer and Ariel Rechtshaid-produced track dedicated to celebrating lost loves ones. "So raise a glass to the memories and set em' free," she sings, "and fill up all the ashtrays/Fill up all the ashtrays."
Angela Hunte penned the lyrics after the death of Snoop's family member. The scene plays out in the West Coaster's Reincarnated documentary, which chronicles his travels to Jamaica to record the album.
Snoop has tapped a bunch of big names for his reggae debut (due April 23rd). Aside from Cyrus, the album's guest list includes Chris Brown, Drake, Akon and Rita Ora.
