Snoop Dogg is to launch his own line of headphones, as he branches out into audio hardware.

The new product follows in the footsteps of producer Dr. Dre, who last year dropped his own set of headphones 'Beats by Dre' in conjunction with Monster Cable.

Dogg's phones will be created by Skullcandy and the product aims to be an "extreme bass amplified headphone".

Mix Master Mike - DJ with the Beastie Boys - is also developing a line with Skullcandy.
