Why Did Snoop Dogg Change His Name to Snoop Lion

I only just realized that Snoop Dogg changed his name to Snoop Lion after watching his new video "La la la."



Apparently he changed his name because he is now a Rastafarian. To refer to himself as a "dog" is very derogatory.  Lions are associated with royalty in Rastafarianism and also in many other religions, including Christianity.

Check out the trailer for Snoop Lion's documentary of his spiritual path to Rastafarianism.
