On June 27, Tha Dogg Pound's new album, "Cali Iz Active" will be released, featuring collaborations with B-Real, Busta Rhymes, David Banner, Paul Wall and production by Battlecat, Fredwreck, The Alchemist, Jazze Pha and Sean 'Diddy' Combs. A spokesperson confirms that Snoop Dogg will helm the project, re-teaming his protégés Daz Dillinger and Kurupt a.k.a. ,b>Young Gotti. "I'm like the quarterback," Snoop Dogg said, "putting the team together, gluing it together. I'm the one that puts everything in the proper perspective. Get everyone thinking alike, moving alike, loving alike. Let everybody know that it's built on love first. If we love each first, the music will kick right in." Tha Dogg Pound will open for Ice Cube on a national tour set to kick off April 20 in Anaheim, Calif. and run through June. "I'm letting everybody know that the West Coast is definitely making a strong comeback," said Snoop. "Tha Dogg Pound sound is fresh and fly. It's a beautiful thing for me to be able to work with them, and when we drop this album it's gonna shake the whole game up."
