Snoopy also known as Snoopy Montana is a part time lyricist from East London who has been in the music game roughly since around 2005. His main genre of music is Grime but he does however extend to most other genres. A fomer member of the Eskibeat Recordings record label collective, he has worked with some of the biggest artists in the Grime scene and has made appearances on radio stations such as: Pyro Radio, Kiss 100 Fm, Axe Fm, Rinse Fm and more as well as having some of his songs playlisted on Logan Sama's Grime shows on Kiss Fm.

In around the middle of the year 2006, Snoopy decided to take a break from doing any music whatsoever. In his absence a large number of the other artists from the younger aged generation of grime music began their breakthrough, however Snoopy returned to showcase his skills by releasing a promo mix CD in 2008 entitled "It's A Dog Eat Dog World" which was released for free and features Germz and Dimples amongst other MC's as well as production from Maniac, Rude Kid & Delerious amongst other producers.

Snoopy has sadly been absent from the Grime scene since the winter of 2008 when he, along with fellow grime artist Maniac, was arrested for the attempted murder of a 15 year old girl. On 4th December 2009 Snoopy was found guilty of conspiracy to murder and sentenced to 18 years in prison.
