I'm not sure how I feel about this. I remember a time when according to many rap music was the lowest form of music one could listen to, the music of thugs, gang bangers and the un-evolved. My, how times have changed.

Snoop Dogg will take the stage at the Democratic National Convention this year, and life can’t get any more awesome.

According to Billboard, the rapper will perform at the DNC’s "unity party" during the final day of the convention. The event will be co-hosted by the super PACs Priorities USA, the Senate Majority PAC, as well as the House Majority PAC, and will be held exclusively for Democratic Party donors.

About a month after Hillary Clinton, the presumptive Democratic nominee, announced her candidacy, Snoop expressed his support of the former Secretary of State in an endorsement:

"You know I like to be politically correct, but sometimes I’m politically incorrect," Snoop said during a May 15 appearance on Watch What Happens Live. "But I’ll say that I would love to see a woman in office because I feel like we’re at that stage in life to where we need a perspective other than the male’s train of thought. And just to have a woman speaking from a global perspective as far as representing America, I’d love to see that. So I’ll be voting for Ms. Clinton."

The "unity party" will take place July 28 at Philadelphia's Electric Factory. On the same day, Lady Gaga, Lenny Kravitz, and DJ Jazzy Jeff will put on a free concert for DNC attendees at the BB&T Pavilion on the Camden waterfront. The "unity party" co-hosts also announced that Los Lobos will perform at one of their events earlier in the week.
