NEW YORK (AP) - Snoop Dogg thinks his old image is getting lame.

So he's changing the game.

The rapper and actor, whose real name is Calvin
Broadus, tells The Wall Street Journal that his new
image is part of "getting older." He says he is moving
away from portraying a gangsta, dressing like a pimp
and smoking marijuana.

The 30-year-old rapper, who was High Times
magazine's 2002 Stoner of the Year, says he is a
father of three and people depend on him now.

Snoop's most recent album, "Tha Last Meal" came out two years ago. And
while it sold two million copies in the US, it was considered a disappointment.

His 1993 release "Doggystyle" which sold 14 million copies.

Snoop's current projects range from making porno movies to appearing on TV
with the Muppets.

In May, Snoop Dogg pleaded no contest to marijuana possession charges in
Ohio, and received a $250 fine and a suspended 30-day jail sentence.

He was charged with possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia after his
tour bus was stopped in nearby Amherst by the State Highway Patrol for
speeding in Oct. 2001.

Snoop's new album Paid The Cost To Be The Boss is horrible, i ain't buying another cd from him. Another cd i hated by him was Da Game Is To Be Sold, Not To Be Told. That album was horrible. I like his other albums. Did anybody see his Bones movie? I know it sucked & i can't believe Pam Grier was in it.
