Snoop Dogg Turns "Lodi Dodi" Into an Animated Official Video

Snoop Dogg is giving one of his oldest songs a cartoon makeover. The official video for "Lodi Dodi" went up on his VEVO channel on Nov 5, 2026, fully animated, with Snoop himself listed as executive producer in the description.
A Doggystyle cut, redrawn
"Lodi Dodi" is track 5 on Doggystyle, Snoop's debut album, which Death Row released on Nov 23, 1993. The song is his take on "La Di Da Di," the 1985 record by Doug E. Fresh and Slick Rick, then known as MC Ricky D. The Library of Congress added that record to the National Recording Registry in April 2024.
The new video turns Snoop into a cartoon dog in a baggy plaid jacket and shades, strolling through a bright, palm lined world. The video description credits a team of animators along with 3D artists, and it closes with special shout outs to Slick Rick, Doug E. Fresh, Dr. Dre and Death Row Records.

Back on his own label
Snoop bought the label in February 2022, so this new look at a 1993 song comes from the artist who now owns the catalog. Under his ownership, Apple Music carries a 30th Anniversary Edition of Doggystyle with a 2023 Death Row Records copyright line, and "Lodi Dodi" still sits at track 5 there, running 5:01 against 4:26 for the radio edit. Alongside the video, a radio edit of the song is on Apple Music as its own single, with fresh cover art billed as "The Great Adventures of Dogg." Apple's credits list Dr. Dre as the producer. It arrives in a West Coast season that also has new work from SOB X RBE and John Mackk and Mike Sherm.
