TikTok is the official home of Death Row Records’ catalog. The music is now exclusively available via SoundOn, the streaming service’s all-in-one distribution platform for music creators.
Snoop Dogg acquired Death Row’s brand and label last year and later removed it from digital streaming providers. In a statement, he explained the discography’s return to streaming services.
“Since I took death row off streaming almost a year ago, not a day goes by without people asking me to put it back up,” Death Row’s CEO said in a statement. “As the Super Bowl rolled around, I knew fans would be looking for the music from our iconic performance in 2022, so I wanted to reintroduce the most historic catalog to the people. I reached out to the folks at TikTok to make more history…enjoy ya’ll.”
Death Row’s expansive catalog includes RIAA multi-Platinum-selling albums like Snoop’s Doggystyle and The Doggfather, the Above The Rim soundtrack and tracks from the likes of 2Pac, Nate Dogg and more.
Some of the songs are featured on a newly curated DeathRow’s Greatest Hits playlist released in celebration of the catalog’s new home. Fans will be also able to access a “What Dogg Are You?” TikTok filter soundtracked to Snoop’s “Who Am I? (What’s My Name).” Per a press release, the filter will “transform users into the breed that best represents them.”
