Snoop Dogg has scored his first No.1 on the Top Gospel Albums chart with Bible of Love, with 5,000 equivalent album units in the week ending March 22, according to Nielsen Music.
The 32-track double album includes features by gospel stalwarts including Erica Campbell, Marvin Sapp, Tye Tribbett and Charlie Wilson.
Three tracks from the record appeared on the Hot Gospel Songs chart: "You", featuring Tribbett, "Saved" featuring Faith Evans and 3rd Generation, and "Blessing Me Again" ft. Rance Allen.
Snoop Dogg was revealed to have teamed up with Gorillaz for a new track, "Hollywood", which the band debuted live at a concert in Chile (without Snoop) on 20 March.
Just before performing the song, frontman Damon Albarn announced that they will release a new album "very soon", barely a year after their last record Humanz, and joked he would "deny it" if any of the fans present told anyone.
You can watch a video of the moment below.
Gorillaz previously teamed up with Snoop on their track "Welcome to the World of Plastic Beach" from Plastic Beach.
