News: Doggy Treats
Snoop Dogg's "Snoop Youth Football League" was to be gifted Sunday with 10,000 shares of stock from AmoroCorp (AORO) during a ceremony at the California African American Museum in Los Angeles.
AmoroCorp (AORO) CEO Ephren Taylor, America's youngest African American CEO of any public company at age 24, serves as a financial advisor for Snoop and manages the "Snoop Youth Football League" endowment.
The Snoop Youth Football League (SYFL) was founded by the Long Beach rapper in 2004 to make organized football affordable for all kids. The NFL lends SYFL a helping hand via various youth initiatives, including "Junior Player Development" and "Play Safe!" programs. Players must adhere to certain academic requirements to participate, and learn responsibility and respect for themselves and others.
*Meanwhile, Snoop and his Dogg Pound posse Daz Dillinger and Kurupt will launch a DVD magazine offering viewers behind-the-scenes scoop about the group, as well as coverage of artists and issues that relate to the urban community.
"We want to stay in complete contact with our fans," Daz explains in a statement. "This is evident by the way we have our My Space online, the way we are on tour with our fans is a clear indication that we are serious about fan appreciation, without them we wouldn't be here. This DVD demonstrates our love to them and for them."
Kurrupt adds: "The question I get most often is, 'Who do you all think will be the next DPGC member or what songs are coming out next?' This DVD will be the answer to the fans questions and actually to those who are interested in issues that [aren't] covered by BET news and the regular news channel. It's an array of things."
Tha Dogg Pound DVD will hit newsstands in August.
