This striking portrait of Snoop Dogg by Albert Watson, taken in 1999, captures the rapper in a profile view that emphasizes his iconic features and distinctive style. The minimalist black-and-white composition brings focus to Snoop’s braided hair, which is meticulously styled and adorned with small accents, reflecting both his individuality and connection to cultural roots.
The sharp contrast highlights the texture of his skin and hair, creating a sense of realism and intimacy. His calm, introspective expression gives the image a contemplative quality, contrasting with the vibrant persona often seen in his performances. The simplicity of the white background ensures that Snoop remains the central focus, his profile exuding both strength and elegance.
Watson’s ability to strip away excess and focus on detail results in a timeless portrait that speaks to Snoop Dogg’s authenticity and presence as a cultural icon.

Albert Watson
Albert Watson studied graphic design before becoming a photographer. His manipulation of contrast and superior sense of composition distinguish his portraits of celebrities and models. With an emphasis on the formal and sculptural properties of his sitters' bodies, Watson's images have not only appeared in numerous American and European fashion magazines but also in museum and gallery exhibitions.
In Watson’s famous nude photographs of Kate Moss taken on her 18th birthday in 1993, the model's spine pokes through the skin of her curved back, like the scales of a dinosaur, while the right side of her body is entirely shaded. In a 1989 portrait, Naomi Campbell's head is silhouetted against a grey surface, while her bare shoulders and the arch of her back are illuminated. In 2010, he was awarded the Royal Photographic Society's Centenary Medal and Honorary Fellowship.
