Photo Gallery: Summertime in the LBC ~ Snoop Dogg, Ashanti & Ja Rule, The Game

[dropcap size=big]H[/dropcap]eadliners Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, and The Game were joined by Ashanti & Ja Rule, E-40 and Too $hort, Mack 10, the Dogg Pound, and many more in the shadow of the Queen Mary in Long Beach this past Sunday for an all-day concert on two stages.

The event, in its second year, entertained thousands of happy music fans who saved their biggest cheers for hometown hero Snoop. The Doggfather ran through his iconic debut album Doggystyle to close the night.

It was hot, and the artists may have been older than at your typical hip-hop show, but the good vibes poured out of everyone from the stage to the back of the park. Please enjoy these images of our favorite performers.
