US rapper Snoop Dogg is to pay tribute to his late mother, Beverly Tate, with a new gospel album.
Taking to Instagram on Tuesday, the rapper announced that he will be honouring his church roots with his next project, titled Altar Call.
The 21-song album is set to drop on 27th April.
"Good afternoon loved ones. April 27, I'm dropping a gospel album on Death Row Records. It's called Altar Call," he said in a video. "You heard it first. A gospel album, April 27. God is good. Won't he do it?"
An image of Beverly, who died in 2021, features on the cover art.
And a glimpse of the track listing reveals Altar Call will include collaborations with the likes of Jamie Foxx, Jazze Pha, and Jane Handcock, among others.
Following the news, Snoop reflected on his decision to record the album in an interview for website Okayplayer.
"The spirit of my mother will forever live within me," he said. "This album is a reflection of what she has taught me - to use my voice and my platform to spread love and heal the world. Just another chapter out of the Bible of Love."
Snoop released his first gospel album, Bible of Love, in 2018.
The record featured guest appearances from artists including Faith Evans and Rance Allen.
