@ProductHunt@snoopdogg Hey Snoop! What I'm wondering, is if I'm to best support you, should I purchase your album on iTunes? Or should I listen on Spotify / Beats / Rdio or something like that?
I'm mostly curious if you have a preference as an artist, or just prefer people to listen to it in a legal way.
@ProductHunt@ow Listening 2 the music and spreading the message is the support we need. Buying it off of iTunes/amazon etc or getting the actual record in stores is always the ultimate reward for the artist.

@snoopdogg What do you think of Jay Z's new service Tidal? Do you think they have any chance against Spotify?
Yessss, today’s playlist is set.
@snoopdogg - I actually have a tech-related question. You (and your team) are investing in companies like reddit, Philz (nice choice), Robinhood, and others. Why?
@rrhoover because we have a passion for new technology, love business and and have found that we have the power to help companies grow when there is a true collaboration there. If you look at tha companies that we support you will realize that they authentic to the Snoop Dogg brand. We can't fake it, it has to be authentic. At the end of the day you gotta be in it 2 win it Jacc!
@ryanhoover@snoopdogg Snoop's embracing of new tech, particularly as a major label artist, is refreshing, and could possibly set a larger trend. No reason that other independently-minded major artists like Radiohead or Nine Inch Nails might not also explore sites like Product Hunt for album releases.
PH actually provides a temperate avenue for them, sitting nicely far enough away from traditional avenues to allow for new possibilities, but not so close to the indie level that these artists risk steamrolling their independent peers. Could provide a scenario in which they win more than they would on iTunes, but don't have to feel as though they're bullying smaller independent artists.
@ryanhoover@adammarx13 The artist who can put it all out in one app. That is going to happen soon. Its been tried but the tech and the innovation is about to fall inline with the art.
@ryanhoover@snoopdogg@adammarx13 Ok but I think it should be in a different category don't you think? It's not so per se a product or service right? I think it would dilute the whole thing. I mean if this starts to become a promotional tool for artists it defeats its original purpose I suppose... and then become like myspace, a promotion tool that turns wrong.
@eriktorenberg trust the advice of people who have been in tha game 4 longer than me. love the founders. my team hasn't messed with anyone we don't get a good vibe from. Study. Study. Study. Im learning new things in this world everyday I got my lingo but the math lingo is a whole new game.
ok i think im about to be out like a paper route. maybe ill be bacc later or maybe ill be off on a safari.
many thanks to tha homies at product hunt and to all of you beautiful and smart people for stopping thru.
always remember if you see me smoking don't be afraid to ask to partake.
Peace Love and Soul.

@Snoopdogg@jgcatalano passion! Ive met some entrepreneurs who are artists. They are painting or making music. That product comes from the soul. Yes there are times artists and entreps make stuff for money but that real art that shit u do with out a care in the world. That is what the two have in common.
The king is here! Just want to say I'm a big fan since way back in the day, Glad to see you investing in tech companies and would love to get your opinion on my music discovery site: www.musicroamer.com!
@snoopdogg Thank you!! It was a side project about 8 years ago. I wanted a new way to discover music and it's still a work in progress. I want to enable people to enjoy the process of finding new music and make it as easy as possible at the same time. Can't wait to listen to the new album!

@snoopdogg@tanyacash21 I like the artist recommendations. I typed in Hans Zimmer and it didn't disappoint!
@snoopdogg@hazzajay Glad to hear! We're just using data from last.fm's API for now. The goal will ultimately be to start providing smarter recommendations using machine learning.
