ABOUT THIS EDITION:
"On this humid day in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, I was assigned the task of photographing the legendary Snoop Dogg for a feature story in The Source Magazine. It was imperative that I came back with an 8 page story, MINIMUM. This was a different moment in time for Snoop because he had just signed to Master P’s label, NO LIMIT Records. This was unchartered territory for this West Coast legend. We waited for him outside of the No Limit offices in the parking lot for about 5 hours.
This image represented his relentless focus and the ability to rise to the occasion with intensity in the moment. In 12 minutes, he commanded the frame and we created timeless work. Nearly 20 years later, this images still holds court." - Jonathan Mannion
