As Snoop Dogg continues to mourn his late mother, he's moving on with his career, and Tuesday night, he hosted a listening session for his upcoming album, The Algorithm.

Dave East, DJ Whoo Kid, and Lena Waithe were among the stars attending the event at Def Jam Recordings in New York City.

“This makes me feel good when I can come out and see love, see appreciation,” the 50-year-old rapper said. As previously reported, his mother, Beverly Tate, passed away Sunday. She was 70 years old.

“When I can come out and see the love that my mother instilled in me and see it given back to me. Y'all making me feel real good tonight," he added.

As previously reported, last week, The Doggfather debuted his new supergroup, Mount Westmore, consisting of Snoop, Ice Cube, E-40 and Too Short, who released “Big Subwoofer," the first track from The Algorithm.

Now Snoop is challenging fans to record their own video to the music of the song, and the winner of the contest will hang out with him at his home in Inglewood, California.

"Whoever does the dopest video to my new video, 'The Big Subwoofer,' gets to come to The Compound," he says

“’Big Subwoofer’ is an instant classic that once again shows the incredible musical genius of Snoop and the whole Mt. Westmore crew,“ TrillerNet Executive Chairman Bobby Sarnevesht told The Source. “Our good friend Snoop is going to give one talented and lucky Triller user an experience they won’t forget, so I encourage everyone to get on the app now and use Triller’s incredibly easy, intuitive and powerful tools to start making great videos.”

Videos should be posted on the Triller website, and the winner will be chosen by Snoop Dogg next month
