JAKARTA, KOMPAS.comRapper and entrepreneur Snoop Dogg is expanding his business network. This time, he is branching out into the premium coffee product line with beans sourced from Indonesia under the name INDOxyz.

The man with the real name Calvin Broadus said that INDOxyz is a premium lifestyle coffee.

He has officially launched a new business created with Michael Riady. "Today marks the launch of a new company that I created with my partner Michael, who introduced me to the best-tasting Indonesian coffee," he said.

"Indo [INDOxyz] will revolutionize the industry, I guarantee it," added Snoop Dogg.
