Question: What American singer and producer does Snoop Dogg's song that includes a stutter edit feature?
Context: The stutter edit is an audio software VST plugin, implementing forms of granular synthesis, sample retrigger, and various effects to create a certain audible manipulation of the sound run through it, in which fragments of audio are repeated in rhythmic intervals.  "In plain English, a stutter edit contains a single segment of audio repeated a number of times, giving a performance a decidedly digital flavor."  Stutter edits not only occur as the common 16th note repetition, but also as 64th notes and beyond.  Stutter edits can go beyond 2,048th notes and can be measured in milliseconds.  Above a certain point, these repetitions transition from rhythmic to tonal frequencies, making musical notes out of the repeated audio.  These extremely short, fast groups of notes are often placed into the spacing of an eighth or sixteenth note in an otherwise “normal” bar, creating rhythmic accenting and patterns that call attention to a particular section.  These patterns can be placed at the beginning of a bar, or towards the end for a more syncopated sound.  One example is in the second verse of "Drop It Like It's Hot", Snoop mentions a DJ followed by a stutter edit and turntable scratch in reply. "Drop It Like It's Hot" is a hit single by American rapper Snoop Dogg featuring American singer and producer Pharrell.  Snoop Dogg performs the chorus and the second and third verses (of three), while Pharrell performs the first verse.  Pharrell's verse includes a line from "Raspy Shit" (a song from his debut album "In My Mind"), which was produced by The Neptunes and contains vocal samples from Laid Back's "White Horse".  Part of "White Horse"'s production is sampled in "Drop It Like It's Hot" as well. Meech Wells (born Cecil D. Womack, Jr.) is a music producer from the United States.  He works primarily on hip hop music, and has produced or co-produced for artists Snoop Dogg and Shaquille O'Neal.  Wells is also the son of Motown singer Mary Wells and musician/songwriter, Cecil Womack.  Being the son of Motown legend Mary Wells may have helped jumpstart Meech Wells' career, but the West Coast rap producer quickly proved his talent and eventually aligned himself with Snoop Dogg, another relationship that definitely didn't hurt his career.  Before being Snoop's producer of choice during the late 1990s and early 2000s, Wells began his career as part of a funk band called Trey Lewd that also featured Tracey Lewis, George Clinton's son; this provided him with the opportunity to work with Clinton himself.  By 1993, Wells found himself working alongside producer/rapper Def Jef; the two's production on Shaquille O'Neil's "I Got Skillz" (a surprise hit single) won them instant credentials.  Throughout the mid-'90s, he continued to hone his craft, working on a number of remix projects before eventually being introduced to Snoop through a friend.  Before long, the two were working together as a potent duo, beginning with "Still a G Thang," one of the better songs on Snoop's Da Game Is to Be Sold, Not to Be Told.  Wells produced a few No Limit songs featuring Snoop—Tru's "It's a Beautiful Thang," Silkk the Shocker's "Get It Up"—before playing a major role in bringing a West Coast sound to Snoop's Top Dogg album in 1999: "In Love With a Thug," "Better Days," "Gangsta Ride," among others.  In 2000 he reprised his role as one of Snoop's producers of choice, producing tracks for Tha Eastsidaz' self-titled debut and Doggy's Angels' Pleezbalevit, as well as Snoop's own Tha Last Meal ("Go Away," "Issues"). "Snoopafella" is a song by American rapper Snoop Dogg, taken from Snoop Dogg's fourth studio album "No Limit Top Dogg" (1999).  The song was written by Snoop Dogg, with production handled by Ant Banks.  The song heavily samples "Cinderfella Dana Dane" by Dana Dane, which in turn heavily samples "Dazz" by Brick. "Imagine" is a song by American rapper Snoop Dogg, featuring guest vocals from rapper Dr. Dre and singer D'Angelo, taken from Snoop Dogg's eighth studio album "Tha Blue Carpet Treatment" (2006).  The song was written by Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre and Mark Batson, with production handled by Dr. Dre and Mark Batson. The Hard Way is the only studio album from American hip hop trio 213, which consisted of Snoop Dogg, Warren G and Nate Dogg.  The reunion of the group first appeared as 213 in Warren G's "The Return of the Regulator" in the track "Yo' Sassy Ways".  In 2003, Snoop Dogg, released his series of mixtapes, from which the second compilation "Welcome to tha chuuch, Vol.  2" included the first version of "So Fly", which is a parody of the then chart-running hit single by Monica, So Gone.  Missy Elliott, a co-producer of the song (with Spike & Jamahl), got to hear the tape and was very impressed by it.  She agreed with Snoop to cede the right of the sample for the upcoming 213 project in exchange for their rapping on Tamia's "Can't Go for That" remix.  In the end it came out to be the first unofficial radio single of "The Hard Way" and was performed live at BET's 106 & Park.  The album version differs from the mixtape version in a way that it is five seconds shorter and misses Snoop's intro where he gives the shootouts "Welcome to tha chuuch Vol.  2...exclusive 213".  The official debut retail single was "Groupie Luv", which was also accompanied by a promo video.  It was directed by Chris Robinson and was filmed in Snoop Dogg's own house (see also Still a G Thang).  It is also the video debut for dancer Criscilla Crossland. "Crybaby" is a song by American singer and songwriter Mariah Carey featuring American rapper Snoop Dogg.  It was released on July 20, 2000 by Columbia Records as a double A-side with "Can't Take That Away (Mariah's Theme)".  It was written by Carey and Snoop Dogg, and produced by the former and Damizza for Carey's seventh studio album, "Rainbow" (1999).  It serves as the album's fourth single.  It features Snoop Dogg throughout the songs bridge and is built around a sample of the 1988 song "Piece of My Love," originally performed by Guy and written by Teddy Riley, Aaron Hall, Timmy Gatling and Gene Griffin.  Throughout the song, the protagonist reveals the struggles of dealing with insomnia and thoughts of a past relationship during the night, as she spirals out of control and declares "I gotta get me some sleep." "Girl Like U" is a song by American rapper Snoop Dogg, featuring guest vocals from singer Nelly, taken from Snoop Dogg's seventh studio album "" (2004).  The song was written by Snoop Dogg, Nelly and L.T. Hutton, with production handled by L.T. Hutton. "Love Profusion" is a song by American singer and songwriter Madonna for her ninth studio album "American Life" (2003).  Written and produced by Madonna and Mirwais Ahmadzaï, it was released as the fourth and final single from the album on December 8, 2003, by Maverick Records.  "Love Profusion" was first premiered during the release of the album on AOL.  It later received a number of remixes, which were also released alongside the single.  The song contains rhythm from a four piece bass drum, with guitar riffs of the acoustic guitar and Madonna's voice backed by a male vocal during the chorus.  Ahmadzaï used the stutter edit to create a new groove.  Dedicated to director, and Madonna's then-husband, Guy Ritchie, the song's lyrics deal with Madonna's confusion regarding American culture. Snoop Dogg's Hustlaz: Diary of a Pimp is a mixed hardcore pornography and hip hop music video featuring the music of rapper Snoop Dogg, produced by Hustler Video.  The video was also directed, co-produced and presented by Snoop, although he does not feature in any sex scenes.  In the films credits, Snoop is listed under the moniker "Snoop Scorsese".  The movie was released in 2002, a year after Snoop Dogg set the trend of mixed hip hop porn movies with "Snoop Dogg's Doggystyle".
