     *Snoop Dogg and the British trip-hop group Massive Attack have joined forces for the track "Calling Mumia," in honor of jailed former Black Panther leader Mumia Abu Jamal.

      The collaboration – under the alias "100 Suns" – appears in the new documentary, "In Prison My Whole Life," which chronicles the life of the convicted murderer. His case has attracted international attention from supporters who believe he was not given a fair trial.

      Jamal is currently on Death Row for killing a Philadelphia policeman. The film looks at the years before and after his incarceration.

       Snoop's lyrics include "The way I live now is to educate and elevate the kids/ and give them more than weed and bottles of beer.  …I got a lot to say/ cuz ain't no fun when you’re locked away."
