Dr. Dre has revealed that music fans can look forward to new albums by Eminem and Snoop Dogg, both of which will feature his timeless production.
During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, the iconic boardsman discussed the slate of the projects he’s currently working on. He began with Eminem’s next solo outing, which he said is in its finishing stages.
“Let me tell you something, let me explain something to you right now: Eminem is working on his own album which is coming out this year,” Dre told Kimmel and the audience.
“And I actually talked to him and he said it’s okay for me to make that announcement right here on this show. So he has an album coming out, I’ve got songs on it and it’s fire. I’m actually gonna hear the entire album for the first time for tomorrow.”
The 59-year-old also confirmed that Snoop Dogg will be unveiling an album titled Missionary, which will be produced by Dre and find the pair working together in a capacity similar to that of Snoop’s debut album Doggystyle.
“The first album I’ve done with Snoop was in 1993 and it’s the only album I’ve ever produced on Snoop,” Dre noted. “Thirty years ago. So now, believe it or not, we’re getting together again and we’re almost done with the album. The first album was called Doggystyle, so we decided to flip it and call this one Missionary.”
Snoop, who was also present for the sit-down, ensured that the album will be coming out this year, with Dre slated to begin the mixing and mastering process “in mid-April,” according to Tha Doggfather.
