"As a father, grandfather and longtime youth football coach, it's always been important to me to build positive and educational environments for all children.

"I've always wanted to create a kid friendly series that lets kids be kids and is truly representative of the Culture with everything from the music to the characters. When I started to build my team, it was only right to partner with Claude, who created the iconic series, Hip Hop Harry, which built the blueprint to diverse kids programming, and October London, a talented singer and writer."

Snoop Dogg has a long history of creating spaces that positively impact youth. In 2005, Snoop Dogg founded the Snoop Youth Football League (SYFL), a 501c3 non-profit organization founded to provide the opportunity for inner-city children to participate in youth football and cheer. The SYFL serves children between the ages of five and thirteen, teaching them the values of teamwork, good sportsmanship, discipline, and self-respect, while also stressing the importance of academics. In 2018, Snoop launched Snoop's Special Stars, a division of SYFL that focuses on special needs children who want to participate in football and cheerleading. Since the start of the Snoop Youth Football League, thousands of kids have participated in the program and several of the kids have gone on to play in D1 colleges and NFL.

"Snoop and I are excited to make an animated children's show that's musically based and promotes social, emotional and cognitive learning in an innovative way that both kids and parents alike will be learning together," said Claude Brooks, Co-Creator, Doggyland - Kids Songs & Nursery Rhymes. "I'm a father of a 7yr old daughter and one of the things we are most proud of is having age appropriate songs about "Being Different", "Not Being A Bully", "Good Manners" and one of my personal favorites, "Affirmations." These kinds of songs will hopefully lead to meaningful conversations and help everyone be the best they can be."

"Working with Snoop, you know our music has to be top notch and make all the kids and families get out of your seat and dance," said October London, singer and songwriter. "While the Doggyland - Kids Songs & Nursery Rhymes show is created with kids as the priority, the whole family will want to watch it and bump it!"
