Snoop Dogg says he will collaborate with BTS
In January, Snoop Dogg previously hinted that he could work with BTS. The rapper appeared on the podcast Mogul Talk and revealed that BTS’ team reached out to him about working on something together.
“I got a group named BTS that’s waiting on me to do a song with them right now,” Snoop Dogg shared. “And I’m trying to figure out if I got time to do that s***.”
It appears Snoop Dogg found the time to work with BTS, as he confirmed the collaboration to The A.V. Club on the red carpet for American Song Contest.
“The BTS experience you keep talking about. I’m going to let them tell you about it. It’s official like a referee with a whistle. I love that entertainment world. It’s good music. It’s [a] vibe. I make good music. They make good music. And we end up doing this. This is what it’s always about, bringing our worlds together,” Snoop Dogg told The A.V. Club.
