Leave it to Snoop Dogg to come up with another way to bring in the green from Hollywood to Harlem.
The “Gin & Juice” rapper and entrepreneur’s latest — “Rolling Words: A Smokable Songbook” — is a book of the hip-hop star’s lyrics, printed on rolling papers.
Not only are the words to his classic songs “Gin & Juice,” “Drop It Like It’s Hot” and “Nuthin’ But a ‘G’ Thang” printed out on the paper, the book comes with a strike board on the spine, so users can light matches off it.
The book will not go on general release but may see a limited edition for sale online in the near future. Those who attended the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival in California earlier this month – where Snoop Dogg is headlining with Dr Dre – will be able to sample the papers attached to posters located around the site. Here’s the man himself talking about the project:
There’s plenty of inspiration here for those involved in publishing to build upon the ideas.
