Famous American Astronaut, Buzz Aldrin, has teamed with Snoop Dogg and Talib Kweli to celebrate 40 years since his [moon landing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moon-walker).

The song is titled “The Rocket Experience,” and features Aldrin telling all the listeners why nothing compares to the “Rocket Experience.”

Buzz brought up the idea while playing video games with Snoop Dogg, and the D-O-double-G (Snoop’s nickname) was immediately in on the project. Kweli was contacted by Aldrin through [Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/https-twitterviewer.net) (you can’t hide from Twitter) and he jumped on board.

It’s nice to see old school history mixing it up with new school music.
