The Doggfather, along with Claude Brooks and October London, created an animated series for children titled, Doggyland – Kids Songs & Nursery Rhymes. The cartoon is shown exclusively on YouTube and YouTube Kids.
This is amazing as there are so many black and Brown households forced to watch shows like Cocomelon. Show’s Like these are notorious for their lack of inclusion and insensitivity towards other cultures when depicting characters and choice of subject matter.

“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. We wanted to bring our show to YouTube and YouTube Kids which provides free access to everyone, so all the kids can enjoy it,” said Snoop in a written statement.
He continues: “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.”
