The new Snoop video “That’s Da Homie” is out and Beirut is playing a staring role!

You read it first here when I broke the story for CNN, a piece later picked up by 411mania and other sites.

I was really surprised by the level of exposure, having assumed Beirut would be one of many cities highlighted in a tour montage. Instead, Snoop’s Beirut after party (filmed at Skybar) anchors the entire clip!

Stay tuned for my un-aired footage of the Beirut show and after party.
