Rapper Snoop Dogg is embracing country music in his new video for the single “My Medicine.”

A cowboy hat-wearing Dogg dedicates the YouTube video to the late Johnny Cash, calling him “a real American gangster.”

“His music touched people like myself, which you probably didn’t know,” Dogg explained at the CMT Awards in April.

The single features Willie Nelson, Dancing With the Stars champ Julianne Hough and country star Brad Paisley. It’s considered a surprising turn from a man known mostly for gangsta rap.

But the rapper said country music’s appeal is universal.

“Country music is the most underrated music in the world,” he said. “It always has the test of time, it’s great, it’s heartfelt, and it touches people no matter what color they are or where they’re from.”

After a decade of marriage and three children later, rapper Snoop Dogg has a few words of advice for new husband and wife Jay-Z and Beyoncé Knowles.

“I told them to go home and make babies,” he told reporters at the Dodge Celebrity Event in Rosamond, Calif. “They should, that’s the next step as far as marriage, having kids … add on to the family, so hopefully that’s what they’ll do.”

When asked if he’d be planning on adding to his already full nest, he shook his head, grinning. “No. I’m good.”

Snoop’s key to lasting marriage? “Communication, and being able to fight and get back up,” he says. “To have misunderstanding and [then] get some understanding.”
