Snoop Dogg's primary record label is Death Row Records, which he acquired in February 2022. As the owner and executive, he now controls the iconic label that helped launch his career in the early 1990s.

Throughout his career, Snoop has been associated with several record labels. Here's a comprehensive list of labels he's worked with:

Death Row Records (1991-1998, 2022-present)
No Limit Records (1998-2000)
Priority Records/Capitol Records (2002-2004)
Geffen Records (2004-2007)
Priority Records (2009-2012)
Doggystyle Records (1995-present)

Doggystyle Records, founded by Snoop in 1995, is his personal record label imprint. It operates as a subsidiary of Death Row Records and has released music from artists like Tha Eastsidaz and Lady of Rage.

When Snoop purchased Death Row Records from MNRK Music Group (formerly eOne Music), he acquired the rights to several iconic albums, including his own "Doggystyle" and unreleased music from artists like 2Pac, Dr. Dre, and himself.

Under Snoop's ownership, Death Row Records has embraced modern technology, becoming the first major record label to operate as an NFT label. This means the label releases music and collectibles through blockchain technology, creating new opportunities for fan engagement and digital ownership.

The label continues to release both new music and classic Death Row catalogue items, maintaining its position as a significant force in hip-hop culture while adapting to modern music industry trends.

I should note that while Death Row Records is now Snoop's primary label, he still maintains creative control over Doggystyle Records, effectively operating both labels simultaneously to serve different aspects of his music business ventures.
