Snoop 'wants to sign Noel Gallagher'

Snoop Dogg has declared that he is interested in signing Noel Gallagher to EMI's Priority Records, where he is creative chairman.

Following the Oasis guitarist's decision to quit the band several weeks ago, reports have suggested that he is on the verge of recording his first solo album.

Speaking about releasing the record, Snoop told NME: "Would I sign Noel Gallagher? Hell yeah. Would I collaborate with him? Yeah, definitely. Set it up.

"I love his style. I'm definitely trying to find a rock band right now."

Razorlight and Kasabian have also revealed their eagerness to work with Gallagher.
