This breed of Rap-émon was only just discovered.

So Who Won?

If P. Diddy can change his name and Willie Nelson can release a reggae album, why can't Snoop Dogg do both? The 40-year-old rapper formally announced today that he would be changing his name to Snoop Lion and abandoning rap to focus on reggae.

At a recent press conference, the newly-christened Snoop Lion described his life-changing visit to a Rastafarian temple while in Jamaica recording for his new album:

"I didn't know that until I went to the temple, where the High Priest asked me what my name was, and I said, 'Snoop Dogg.' And he looked me in my eyes and said, 'No more. You are the light; you are the lion.' From that moment on, it's like I had started to understand why I was there."

Who's the best?

He's talking about his makeup and tampons, right?

"Ruh roh, Rocky!"

We also would have accepted, in place of Kid Rock's face, the face of Shaggy of "It Wasn't Me" fame. Shaggy for Shaggy.

Definitely Lion.
