I used to think it was for pr, but they seem to have a genuine long term friendship.
So strange
Im the person you quoted and Im an east coast girl, so for me it was Wu-Tang, Biggie, Nas, ALL DAY but Snoop (and Dre) blew is east coast folks away!Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:I remember when he was all over Dre’s The Chronic and then in ‘93 he came out with Doggystyle.

He lived the thug/broke/drug dealer/gangbanger life, who can blame him for wanting to enjoy the fruits of his labor and take advantage of the opportunities offered to him.

+1. Cali girl here and totally agree. I’d add Ice Cube as well. Chronic is best rap album of all time with 2001 a close second. Love Snoop! If the only thing can complain about him is him smoking a bong (which is fully legal now and done by many mainstream celebrities), he’s got many more successful years ahead of him. I also love that he’s still married to Shante after all these years.

Snoop had nothing to do with this and actually took legal action against the company.Anonymous wrote:I love Snoop (who doesn’t) and we trashed Elf on a Shelf for Snoop on a Stoop!
