It was a big night for Snoop Dogg at the BMI Urban Awards held yesterday (August 26).
The Doggfather was presented with the BMI Icon award by longtime collaborator Dr. Dre.
During his acceptance speech Snoop promised the long awaited 'Detox' album will be completed soon.
“Ya’ll ain’t gotta wait too much longer,” he said. “The Dogg is in the building. We gonna get this shit right.”
After nabbing his award Snoop was joined on stage by Kurupt, Bootsy Collins and Charlie Wilson for a hyped version of "What's My Name?"
The tributes didn't stop there as Nas performed "The Next Episode" and Wiz Khalifa rapped "Nothin' But A G Thang" in honor of the West Coast rap legend.
