Snoop Dogg Writes Song for Prince William's Bachelor Party

As promised, Snoop Dogg released a new song called "Wet" on Tuesday in honor of Prince William's upcoming wedding. In the tune, a heavily Autotuned Snoop delivers some characteristically sexed-up lyrics that don't mention William or the wedding directly — but are certainly appropriate for a strip club or a bachelor party.

Snoop said of the song, "When I heard the royal family wanted to have me perform in celebration of Prince William's marriage, I knew I had to give them a little something. 'Wet' is the perfect anthem for Prince William or any playa to get the club smokin'."

He also tweeted on Wednesday, "UK twizzles, just heard BBC Radio 1 gonna be playing tha new single #WET soon!! Tune in! This song is tha one for Prince William's stag do!"

“The A Team”

Ed Sheeran | 2011

This debut track from the then-20-year-old British singer-songwriter has a dark story behind it. Sheeran says he culls songwriting inspiration from "viewing other people's situations," which, for the heroine in "The A Team," involves drug addiction and prostitution that began as a teen. Sheeran paints the woman's trials with haunting imagery such as "But lately her face seems/Slowly sinking, wasting/Crumbling like pastries." "I did a gig at a homeless shelter, [and the song] is about one of the women there. It's her story," he said.
