Nonfungible Tokens (NFTs), which put utility and community building at the center, usher in the next generation of Web3. Across the spectrum of musical genres and blockchain networks, a new collection from Mint NFT marketplace and metaverse entertainment platform Animal Concerts achieves this.


Snoop Dogg, a crypto-savvy hip-hop celebrity, is featured on the album “A Hard Working Man,” along with country music legends Billy Ray Cyrus and the Avila Brothers. The collection includes unique physical experiences, digital art, and concert-related benefits.

The three musicians featured in the compilation all have a significant existing fan base, and Colin Fitzpatrick, founder and CEO of Animal Concerts, highlighted how Web3 provides these communities with the resources they need to grow.

Through a number of NFT initiatives, such as converting Bored Ape Yacht Club avatars into a music video, Snoop Dogg is well recognized for his involvement in the crypto sector. Like NFTs, Dolly Parton’s Dollyverse has catered to fans of a variety of types of music, including opera, classical music, and country music.

However, this combination of hip-hop and country music exemplifies how Web3 can take fanbases typically specific to their own genres and create entirely new communities. Using techniques like music NFTs can transform listeners and lovers into a living ecology.
