Snoop Dogg has admitted that he would love to sign Noel Gallagher to his record label and collaborate with the former Oasis man.

The 37-year-old rapper – real name Cordazar Calvin Broadus - was named as creative chairman of Priority Records, a subsidiary of EMI, last month and is keen to sign a guitar act.

Asked by NME whether he would like Gallagher as his first signing, Snoop said: "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."
