Christmas may be days away, but Snoop Dogg is spreading his own brand of holiday cheer with a new Christmas album.
The release, titled Snoop Dogg Presents Christmas In Tha Dogg House, will include exclusive holiday songs from the Long Beach, California.-based rapper as well as Tha Dogg Pound, Soopafly, Bad Lucc, Damani, J. Black and The Hustle Boyz.
Fans can get a sample of the album with the new single “Xmas.”
The song, which features Snoop Dogg and J. Black, is now available for listening via a free stream on MySpace Music.
MySpace Music is a joint venture between MySpace, The EMI Group, Sony BMG Music Entertainment, Universal Music Group, Warner Music Group, and Sony ATV.
The endeavor serves as a vehicle for artists to use their MySpace music profiles to reach out to fans and friends by uploading video content and blogging, as well as posting tour dates, lyrics, and making their music available to fans for stream or download.
The release of “Xmas” comes on the heels of the web site’s free streaming of the latest albums from rapper/actor Common and R&B vocalist Musiq Soulchild this past weekend.
The previews of Common’s Universal Mind Control and Musiq Soulchild’s OnMyRadio were available to fans while leading up to the official release of the albums on Tuesday (December 9).
Snoop Dogg Presents Christmas In Tha Dogg House will be available for digital download beginning December 16.
