Snoop Dogg Lends His Voice to GPS Navigation

3:00 PM - December 2, 2009 - By Marcus Yam - Source : Tom's Guide US

Get Snoop Dogg to pimp your ride.

Are you bored of that same old, lifeless voice from your GPS? Would you like some personality behind the commands that tell you where and when to turn? That's the idea behind VoiceSkins for TomTom GPS units, and the latest celeb to lend his voice to navigation is none other than Snoop Dogg.

For just $12.95, you can grab the voice of the Doggfather for your TomTom device (at time of writing VoiceSkins site is down for maintenance) and he'll tell be able to tell you to take a sharp left – so fly!

This is so all the boys in the hood can feel at ease as they search for their next drive by.

I want Samuel Jackson's voice on GPS.

"You have reached your destination... ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! I've had it with this Mother f*ing turns in this Mother f*ing car! Everybody strap off!"

"It's the 'D' 'O' double G." Think about it, when you pick your friend up to go somewhere. They will be like "Are we rollin' with Tha Dogg Pound?" I am sold.

"Take a rizzle right dizzle."

"You stupid mutha f*cka, I told you to take a rizzle!"

This could have been pretty sweet. Good family fun :)

I want Arnold Schwarzenegger on my GPS:

Exit das next ausfarht
Keep yuu auto tu ze rechts
Turn left in foohundred feet

No offense against German accents, but I've played that casino game with his voice, and it's freaking cool.

This is a ingenious way to sell GPS systems to people who drive Escalades.

TomTom has touted celebrity voices as a feature for some time now. Of all the voices, putting Snoop Dogg on there makes news? Something is wrong with that.

Too bad TomTom can't get things like map updates to work one the budget ONE units. Maybe they should focus on this first.

Street names are clearly impossible... so you have to give up functionality to enhance the UI. Not worth it imo.

Would you really want someone that's stoned all the time to navigate?
