Shante founded the music management company Boss Lady Entertainment in 2003. According to its website, “Boss Lady Entertainment is a full-service company that produces and promotes large-scale concerts and live events nationwide. We’ve booked some of the worlds biggest Urban musical acts including Cardi B, Kevin Gates, Keisha Cole, Dru Hill, Ginuwine, Tyrese, Mary J. Blige, Wu Tang Klan, Tank, Jeezy, Anthony Hamilton, Charlie Wilson, and so many more. Our mission is to provide exceptional shows throughout the USA.”
In June 2021, Shante officially took over as the manager of her husband’s career. “Shante has been guiding my career behind the scenes from day one,” the “Drop It Like It’s Hot” singer said. “She has always been my final gut check with all my decisions, and I wouldn’t be where I am today without her. I am grateful to have her as my official manager, helping to build the Snoop Dogg empire together.”
The news was announced in a press release, which stated, “In her new role, Shante will bring her vast, multi-dimensional expertise to expand Snoop Dogg’s existing ventures, as well as cultivate and fortify all upcoming partnership deals across the cannabis, spirits, gaming, music, brand partnerships, touring, licensing and TV/film space. Additionally, Shante will oversee the media arm of Snoop Dogg’s empire, diGGital doGG – home to exclusive mobile apps, video games and a proprietary animation pipeline.”
Shante added, “I have been by Snoop’s side for over two decades so together with the rest of the team, our goal is to strengthen Snoop’s legacy as a brand with the loyalty and trust of our guidance that has made Snoop who he is today.”
How did Snoop Dogg and his wife meet?
Snoop Dogg and Shante are high school sweethearts. They met while they were students at Long Beach Polytechnic High School and even attended prom together during their teenage years.

“I thought I was the man, and I was willing to give up what I had at home for that, until I realized that what I had at home was irreplaceable,” he shared at the time.
Earlier this month, Shante sent love to her husband on Instagram for his birthday, gushing, “Happy C Day Snoop D. O. Double G 💙💙 #54 A Real Legend Out Here ✌🏽✌🏽 Holding Us All Down Like 4 Flat Tires 💙💙 We Appreciate All You Do And I’m Proud To Call You My Husband Mr Calvin Broadus ✌🏽✌🏽💙💙 I Love You Always.”
