Snoop Dogg didn’t like his experience at Death Row
While Snoop Dogg built the foundation of his legacy at Death Row Records, the rapper says the label damaged his “spirit.” During a recent discussion on the 85 South Show, the Doggfather recalled how moving from Suge Knight’s Death Row to Master P’s No Limit changed his life for the better.
He recalled dropping Doggystyle, The Doggfather, beating his murder case, 2Pac getting murdered, Dr. Dre leaving, Suge going to jail, the label putting a hit on him, and how it all messed up with his inner self.
“They was soldiers, for real. Organized. Structured,” Snoop said of No Limit. “Them n-ggas didn’t play, and P was serious about his business.”
The Compton rapper added that Master P told C-Murder and Soulja Slim not to take him to their respective hometowns of Calliope and Magnolia projects, but they did anyway. “I’m violating but then I’m listening then I’m watching how they not listening then I said, ‘I’m not going to be a bad student. I’m a stop doing what they doing,’” Snoop explained. He continued that Master P gave him his first house and car under his name since everything that he owned before was under Suge and Death Row.
When Karlous Miller acknowledged Snoop’s humility for agreeing to start from a low level again when he already had a name at Death Row, the rapper explained how his time at the label was distressing.
“But I wasn’t,” Snoop said while talking about whether he was thinking about the success he already achieved at Death Row. “My spirit wasn’t that. See that’s what you gotta understand. N-ggas broke my spirit. That broke me, man. They broke my spirit. Look, Doggystyle, working on Doggfather, win my murder case, Dre leaves, Tupac get killed, Suge going to jail, Death Row want to kill me. That’s all in the same year.”
Snoop also talks about why he’s still grinding even after decades of success
Snoop Dogg reveals the strategy that allowed him to drop a slew of back-to-back projects this year. Speaking to The Metaverse Podcast last week, the Compton legend explained that he was on “double time” this year, meaning he was assuming each day had 48 hours.
“December 31st I told myself, I said, ‘Look here, self, I wanna talk to you,’ and myself said, ‘I’m listening,’ I said ‘look, for 2022, that’s 20s and it’s 22, I’m double time everything,” Snoop said. “So I’m treating every day like I got 48 hours in one day instead of 24 hours. You going by the minute, I’m going by the second.’”
When asked how he’s able to keep applying pressure even with around three decades of success, Snoop pointed out that his success makes him hungry for more. “I hate losing. I love to win. I’m a sore loser, and if I ain’t winning I’m losing. There’s no in-between,” he explained. “So if I’m working, I’m popping, I’m popping. I’m winning. You know, it’s beautiful sometimes to just sit back and be in the studio working on a song and a commercial comes in and I’m on the commercial. And then walk out to hallway and you hear me on the radio. You feel what I’m saying? That’s work. And it makes me don’t wanna say ‘let’s go on vacation I’m doing well,’ it makes me wanna say ‘I want more, I’m hungry.’”
Snoop says he respected Nip’s reasons for not appearing in the film
Snoop Dogg stopped by the 85 South Show Comedy for an extensive interview. During the talk, the rap icon explained that Nipsey Hussle turned down an offer to play him on N.W.A’s Straight Outta Compton. According to Snoop, Nip simply didn’t want to become famous just for playing his fellow Compton rapper in a movie.
“They was doing Straight Outta Compton movie right? So Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, all them n-ggas calling me,” Snoop Dogg explained. “[They said,] ‘Man, we trying to get Nip to play you in Straight Outta Compton! He ain’t getting back to us!’ [I’m like] ‘Aight, let me holla at the lil homie.’
“I hit him up,” he added. “[I said,] ‘Nip, lemme holla at you! Pull up on me!’ He come over to the spot. ‘Cuh, they want you to play me in the Straight Outta Compton movie!’ I’m happy as fuck to tell him. He like, ‘No disrespect big homie, but I can’t play you in the movie ’cause then people just gon’ know me for being you. I gotta be me. All that’s with all due respect.’ And I was like damn that was gangsta. I [called Dre and Cube back and] said, ‘Y’all gotta go find somebody else!’”
Snoop Dogg spent a good deal of time with 2Pac during the Deathrow days, it goes without saying he knows much about the late rap icon. During his recent appearance on The 85 South Show Comedy, Snoop remembered how hardworking Pac was in the studio.
“We in the studio the first couple of nights [after] he get out. I got a room, he got a room. We make a song, we in that muthafucka listening to it for like four hours. Got bitches up in there. N-ggas like, ‘This shit banging!’” Snoop recalled a time Pac was recording All Eyez On Me after he was released from jail in 1995.
He went on to explain that Shakur had a strange habit of recording songs back to back without even listening to any of them. “We got in this n-gga room, he on his fifth song. This n-gga make a song, as soon as it got off, ‘Pull the next beat up! We ain’t finna be listening to that shit, that’s the engineer’s job to mix that shit. Next song.’”
[He was] not one of them n-ggas that’s in the studio like, ‘Man, get all these n-ggas outta here!’ He entertained that shit,” Snoop added, explaining that Pac enjoyed everybody’s presence in the studio. “I wasn’t a star ’til I was next to him; he showed me how to be a star. This n-gga was a star. Snoop Dogg was famous, but I didn’t know how to be a star.”
Snoop Dogg is one of the most prominent rappers across all generations, but according to his recent revelation, he owes a lot to the late 2Pac. During a recent sit-down on The 85 South ShowComedy, the Compton native recounted his then Deathrow Records colleague training him how to dress like a “pimp” after he dropped his debut album, Doggystyle.
“I’m still dressing like a n-gga from the hood — khakis, Chucks,” Snoop explained. “That n-gga like, ‘Me and you finna have a meeting… We stepping our game up. We gotta change your look, Snoop Dogg. You a pimp, n-gga. Bitches love you. You fly. You gotta start showing your fly side!
“‘I’ma get you suited up.’ ‘I’ma call this nigga Dion Scott, get your suits fitted, get your hair laid, get your nails done. Put some pimpin’ on screen, n-gga.’”
Snoop went on to discuss how he got used to the new looks. “He dressed me up in suits, Louis Vuitton, Gucci — shit I couldn’t even spell or pronounce! All this Italian shit,” he added. “Just look at how I’m standing next to cuh when I’m wearing it. I’m trying to figure it out! I’m like, ‘Do I look right? I hope I don’t look sweet ’cause these pants tight as a muthafucka!’
“Once I got comfortable with it, then it was like, ‘OK, this n-gga’s teaching me how to be a star.’ Like, levels and layers. ‘We know you gangsta, dawg, but can you go higher than that? What if a n-gga call you to be in a movie where they want you to be a lawyer? What if a n-gga wants you to be a detective?”
California rapper Snoop Dogg is creating his own biopic written by Joe Robert Cole, who co-wrote Black Panther and its sequel, and directed by Allen Hughes who made Menace II Society. The film will be released under Universal.
In a statement, Snoop explained working on the film with the team as” holy matrimony.” “I waited a long time to put this project together because I wanted to choose the right director, the perfect writer, and the greatest movie company I could partner with that could understand the legacy that I’m trying to portray on screen, and the memory I’m trying to leave behind,” the 51-year-old said, according to The Washington Post. “It was the perfect marriage. It was holy matrimony, not holy macaroni.”
Snoop Dogg’s professional roller has made 450k blunts for him since 2016
While Snoop Dogg is known for his incredible music catalog, he’s also famous for his undying love for weed. His professional blunt roller, Ranagade Perrana, recently revealed that the Compton native downs between 75 and 150 blunts a day.
“I calculate it at over 450,000,” Renegade said of the number of blunts she’s rolled since she started working for Snoop in 2016, during an interview on The Kyle & Jackie O Podcast. “I do about half a pound a day, which is 75 to 150 joints.”

Kyle recalled spending some time with Snoop in California who told him, “I’m going to teach you something Tupac taught me,” before teaching him how to roll one.
Snoop disclosed during the summer that he raised his roller’s salary on account of inflation. A fan shared on Twitter that Snoop pays his roller $40-50k, but the I Still Got It rapper corrected him writing, “Inflation. Their salary went up!!”
