Boss'n Up, a musical film inspired by Snoop Dogg's album R&G (Rhythm & Gangsta): The Masterpiece , debuted on 6 December 2005. The film was released in DVD format, and was the first film made under Snoop Dogg's newly-founded production company Snoopadelic Films.
Snoop Dogg stars as a grocery clerk named Cordé Christopher – a young and magnetic man, subject to keen female interest. He becomes a protégé of Orange Juice, an experienced pimp, after being informed of the better and richer life he can lead as a pimp. OJ cultivates Cordé's "talent" and shares street knowledge with him, including the rules of the pimping "game". To some degree, OJ treats Corde like a son. After achieving success, Cordé has to choose between the love of his life, Chardonnay Allen, and his successful career as a pimp.
The cast includes other musicians like Atlanta rapper Lil Jon, who plays the role of Sheriff, a strip club owner who becomes a partner in Corde's business; Dominique, Corde's attractive attorney who frees him from prison; and comedian Scruncho as Hucky G, Corde's own pimping protégé; the film also features a cameo appearance from music producer and P-Funk member Stan "Quazedelic" Harris.
