SNOOP 2024

some you know, hear some foliage. That's me turning the page of all the different candidates, and you know, like sometimes getting on the ballot is really uh, just just to be there, you know, and then other times they're like, you know, some people it's a long shot, but maybe you can like split the vote. Like there's a lot of strategy. Like everybody doesn't consider themselves an actual like candidate,

you know, like you're not really a contender. Sometimes you're just trying to change the narrative or split the vote.

So we got our Green Party, the student, you know, Louis Javier Rodriguez with his statements I am your social, environmental, economic, health justice candidate, endorsed by the Green, Peace and Freedom and Justice parties, you know, left unity slate, right, So Then there's then you've got the Democratic dude, Armando Mondo Perez, you know, California Proclamation, My beloved Californians, I empathize with

the be guy oment or nor prejudice. How solemn my words must tender to assuage your unfringed And it's like, like, what what are you saying? Then you got the the listen to Jenny ray LaRue, Republican. I'm a business owner, a mom and entrepreneur who will revive the California dream. I used to come to California. People used to come to California to proceed dreams. Now they're fleeting nightmare inflation housing. Then you got the like I'm gonna lead by the Constitution.

But who really drew my eyes was Marianna B. Dawston. And you can look at her this This isn't a type recorder like you know, endorsing her, But everybody else got these paragraphs introducing herselves themselves. Maranness is fall politicians. It really drew my eye. I was like, yo, I would actually look you up because this is hilarious, man, But this ain't really what this is about. This is about what all these people can learn from because she's right.

Don't nobody like y'all, don't nobody trust y'all. There's something about you lacking that I think all of you should take a class from Sit at the feet of and you could possibly learn how to actually be good everywhere, really make an impact and get yourself chosen by the people. And there's only one person you could learn all this from, Snoop Dogg. Good politics, y'all. Yeah, what's up, y'all? Welcome?

This one's fun. I liked this episode because it came out of listening to another podcast just from my own leisure, and I was able to witness firsthand a couple of proofs of concept, like right before my years. I didn't say eyes because I wasn't watching the YouTube version. So there's a podcast called Drink Champs, and if you're not familiar with it, that says a lot about my demographic a listener, which no big deal, right, It's just something

to note. So Drink Champs is it start off as a YouTube show became a podcast is on the Black Effect Network. It's uh nori um legendary, like you know, Queen's Rapper, New York Rapper and d J E. F n from Miami, right, so like club Legend who actually grew up in Southgate, believe it or not, West West anyway, they have these like two hour three hour for our conversation where they basically want to give a lot of

the ogs and hip hop. You know, they're flowers and they have them just kind of sit around tell stories in front of a table of every possible liquor and beer and drink you can imagine. And they got their names like drink Champs. Like honestly, like these boys, they'd

be putting it away. And what's crazy is normally listening to drunk people talk is not entertaining if you sober, you know, saying like it's just it's probably one of the worst experience to see it like you do only one sober and you're listening to drunk people talk like hey, and if our brown folks drunk is different than like white girls drunk black, you know, a white boy drunk white, you know, which is which is very much besides the point, but something to note because I feel like white what

y'all just whatever has alcohol and if y'all y'all drink it, just put it all together, it all matter, you know, like there's no rhythm to your drinking, Like we pick a drink if we're doing liquor today, we're doing liquor. Maybe I'll do a beer earlier day. But if we drink a beer, we drink a beer, it's it's a corona, it's it's it's a coat. It's it's like if you drink a beer, you drink a beer. If you drink a liquor, it's like, oh, you know, it's my you know I'm on Henny today or today I'm on Rose.

Like we drink our shampoo, like we drink what we're drinking, Like y'all just be shoving it down your three and I don't you know, I know you've seen it, heard of the phrase ship face for like white girl wasted, because I don't know what it is about white women and drinking, but y'all like it looked y'all shouldn't do it unless you Irish. I'm just playing. I shouldn't pick

on no Irish, especially after doing this potato blight situation anyway. Um, but I will say this, if you've ever had a chance to go to a pub with with with some with some Irish brothers, uh, it's probably the funnest time you'll ever have. The fools starts singing like, y'all fun anyway, uh so we drink differently. The point is it's usually not fun being the only sober person around a bunch of drunk people because they're just saying nonsense and they

s learned their words and it all makes sense. But this pod, for some reason works, And the part of part of why it works is because you've got like vets in the game in hip hop talking to other vets in hip hop and really challenging this idea that, like, you know, hip hop as a young man's sport. Now

I'm rambling right now, This ain't the point. These people usually are telling amazing stories and it's just dope because if you're just a fan of just the culture of hip hop and everybody around it, like it's just so dope to hear these legends like sit down and talk like this about moments in hip hop that, like you know, there are movies about, or they'll continue to be movies about.

The particular one I talked to you talk to you all about today is the second appearance of Snoop Snoop Doggie Dog the d O DOUBLEG the Dogs Father Uncle Snoop Dun dumb dum dumb dum dum dumb Snoop. Okay, So they made the assertion on this pod, uh that I actually made the assertion. I was like, I may have to agree with this. He said he's probably the most famous rapper ever. Snoop was like, I begged to differ, and he was like, who's famous? He goes Mickey Mouse.

He's like, no, I'm just sucking chicken. But out here in California, there's a consensus that and it's difficult for me as being somebody that's like come from like lyrical rapidi rap world that like. But the consensus is Snoop is the greatest rapper of all time. So he's the most famous and it's the greatest rapper of all time. Now why they would say this is this and and here follow me. Now, I'm gonna make a this this

part is gonna make a different point about Snoop. But the argument is this, when you take all around, like buy and large, the totality of what it means to be a hip hop artist, Snoop can do it all. Is he the greatest lyricists ever? No, But do we got bars? Absolutely? Do he got street bangers? Is he the streeting this the most murderous killing? No? But do we got street bangers? Yes? Do the streets respect him? Yes? Do the corporate respect him? Yes? Does he know how

to do pop hits yes? Do we got songs for the girls? Yes? Has he have longevity thirty years in the game, yes? Is he you know what I'm saying? So? Has he made a classic record? Yes? Now has he continued to make classic records? Well, you know, some may beg the different right, Uh, doggy Style obviously far away, Like nothing's ever touched the success of Doggy Style, But that don't mean he don't got drop it like it's hot, beautiful,

like all these other hits that I know. When he did his verses with with d m X, it was like, I feel like, this is not even fair. The catalog is too deep. Snoop got it just it's it's too long of a catalog. So there. So because of that, they was like and the fact that like, can let's let's the cultural impact right of of who Snoop? Of Snoop is Eave changed the name be able to change the name of Snoop line, and people actually followed it. The fact that listen, none of y'all knew where Long

Beach was. No one cared outside of Cali. I knew what Long Beach was? Who came from Long Beach before Snoop? Yeah? Exactly that I'm saying that you knew of Why do you call it the LBC? Snoop? It's you're you're all talking gang stuff. Why do y'all crip walk? I mean, listen, you you think y'all didn't know who y'all didn't know crips? M C m C eight wasn't He wasn't sea walking on everybody? You say, what dub see in a mad circle, that that's why we're crip walking? Oh did so? Okay?

So you saying they that predates Snoop walking on foods? Maybe not that I know of everybody I know how to see everybody I know want to know how to see walk? Was because because Snoop, at least everybody outside of like our culture. You know what I mean When I say our culture, you call it LBC because he called it that long like it's Long Beach crips, Like that's you're this gang talk. Hey, I'm going to the LBC. I'll be like, no, you're not. You know you're not.

You're not going to the LBC. You've never been. Even when you go, you still have never been. You're not going to the ELBA. Snoop. The Man got a show with Martha Stewart. The Man puffed herb and then got on the top of a roof and sea walked at the super Bowl. I mean, is this not the whitest institution? Yes, the same super Bowl that wouldn't let Colin Kaepernick. Neil Snoop. He is a far and away untouchable. The Brother can do no wrong. He is good in every hood, everywhere.

Black folks mess with him. The Latinos messed with him. Hell his spot, the compound, it's in Inglewood. Follow me, Inglewood's They bloods. He messed with bloods. He good. He's good with them. He's good with He's good with the crips. He good with the bloods. He good with the city, he good with. The man owns Death Row Do y'all? Are y'all following me? Are you following me? The Man owns death Row Records and turned it into a metaverse label.

Just the Brother can do no he is good. Everywhere you picked the whitest, the white boys, they know exactly who you picked the whitest the white girls. Anywhere in the world they know who snoop is. My favorite part is if y'all, if y'all, if y'all local, come out to the club real ones, we do it Ay first Sunday, or if not not local, just fly out. It's a Sunday party every first Sunday is it's actually in Long Beach, Yo.

I hosted with some of the dopest DJs in the world, and right now to this day, I don't care who in that audience. The party goes up, and I bet you this could I bet you it's true anywhere else in the country. The party goes up when you hear there's there's a when you hear boo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo, and then we go when I met you last night, Babe. I'm a pause right here, because if you're from the city, you're singing

the rest of this soul. Guess who's back in the house with a fact for your mother and mauth you wrapping the rest of this verse this. This is one of the most misogynistic, raunchy, disgusting. It ain't no fun if the homies came none right now, every let me tell you something. Every woman right now singing as one of the most rauteous y'all all singing the song right now,

it's an anthem. Everyone knows. We even cracked this joke when the show, when the party go on, I'm like, look, I'm gonna stop the music and I'm gonna test y'all. Y'all better wrap every lyric. When I tell you that whole room wraps every lyric. Snoop is untouchable. If I say, representing voted gangsters all across the world, we go do Blum Blum blum Blum or hunt dunt Dunt Dunn dunn, you know exactly, because it's timeless. The man cannot do one, two, three into the foe. I heard you, I heard you

through here. You know that song was in nine two. You know some of y'all were born when that song came out. And you know every lyric right now, the man is untouchable. Everyone loves Snoop, which says to me, every politician needs to sit at his feet because Snooper run for president, and I'm gonna tell you why. This episode is to tell you why Snoop is the perfect example of what we mean by her politics, because he got everything that we all respect. And I'm going to

give it to you after this break. So I'm gonna say it before and I'm gonna say it again. That's a weird way to say that. I said it before, I said and I'll say it again. Long Beach just makes special people. Okay, these are the most likable murderers on the planet because the cripting is real, Like they are very like the gang banging is gangbanging, you know, Black Latino, Samoan, Little Cambodia day gang bang like they and it's like, don't like there day gang bang. I

just they're just the most likable. I don't understand what it is, like who don't like Snoop, Like he's just the everyone likes him. And it's just something about Long Beach that that's just the way they are. Like I don't understand how you how you cannot how do you not like Vince Staples? Like how do you not like him? Like that's just like he's just how do you not like Vince Staples, Like that's just when he's just wanted

the dopest, funniest, like coolest dudes. I just don't like you ain't known problem, just like listen to in any interview and you're just like, dangn this's what like, but like, but ask about north North asked about Northside Long Beach, Like no, like, don't let any of that fool you. That that comedy, his timing, his dry humor, Snoop doing the you know again the Martha Stewart. Don't let that ever, don't ever get it twisted, like it's just crooked eye.

You see crooked out there. You know he's smoking his cigar, talking about rap connoisseurs and just like, you know, just enjoying a good cigar, Like please don't, yeah, don't, don't. Don't let that low you into a sense of false safety. So point number one is like why what Snoop passed that every politician don't is authenticity. Snoop was dangerous. Snoop's

backstory is true. And when you listening to the Drink Champs and he's talking about when he you know, during the LA riots and you know him out at Long Beach being like yok, we need to turn up. You know what I'm saying. Like he was. He still say stuff like all the time, Hey, let me meet, Like you know, he the dog father. He still sometimes refers to himself a third person. But he went to Long Beach probably you could check his year book. He was

cripping down there. He You know it's true because he brought his home. He's with him, whether it was whether it was Dad as Wrangy, he brought his homies with him. Who can vouch for his story, Nate Dog, you can vouch for his story. He authentic, He is who he always is everywhere he goes. When you get when you see Snoop, you know, Snoop, when you see them Corona commercials, He's like, look at that Snoop the way he's chilling it.

He said on this interview, he was like, man, I don't really drink I don't really drink Coronas, but like I don't, I can sell it like that's authentic. Like he's just why he always cuts through is because he's always who he is and his backstory is verifiable, so he's not there's no cap in his story. So that's point number one that I need to think. You politicians need to understand, y'all, if you're not authentic, we don't

believe your backstories. Well, you know, I came from a working class family and my dad had to work for me and shut up to an ivy league. That is not your story. It's a true rags to richest backstory, and it's verifiable. The authenticity of willing to be claiming Long Beach and not Compton, Los Angeles. Y'all know, a couple of years before Snoop came out, was the whole thing with Vanilla Ice that you know, Vanilla was claiming you know, it's a certain part of Florida when it

was when he's from Texas. The story was made up. You know. It was a couple of years before that you got the Milli Vanilli thing where they was doing all the lips and the Snoop's authenticity continues to cut through because his backstory is true. So number one, he's authentic. Number two, he's principled. And what do I mean by that. I talked all the time about the g Code, the code of conduct among gangsters. Why we know somebody is really true to the game is how well they keep

the code. Right. He was principled, and when he was gangbanging, he was gang banging. When he became a businessman, he became a businessman. Then he you know, he's not active. I told you the difference between gang member and gang banger. Right, He's like, I'm not actively gang banging right now. But the principal point is probably where all of y'all should stop and really understand what Snoop got that every politician don't.

When he was facing a murder charge and he did the whole murder was the case that they gave me. He was talking about his he's about to have a baby. You know, he's like, I'm not gonna grow up with my child and and um, you know without me, with me being being in prison. It was all on the news and he stood up and he took it like a man because that was a jitimate case and he'd beat Amurtar case. Right around that time, bad Boy in Death Row started beefing the two most famous deaths in

hip hop. There's there's no question it's big in Tupac. And during that time, the big East Coast West Coast batter, the very all of the clips, the famous clip of you know, sure night getting on stage and being like, so if you want to join the label that ain't got your old CEO all up in the videos come to death Row. What does Snoop say, Nothing, that's his boy, that's the code. I'm no, that's like he talking. If he talking his game, I'm gonna back him up like

that's his game. Right. But then and then at the same Source Awards when Snoop got up and he was like, man, y'all ain't got no love for the West. He was out here riding for the West like I'm here, Which

what's all them about? This famous uh you know Source Awards was This was when Outcasts and and Andre stood up and said, in the middle of this East Coast West Coast beat this bad boy death Row, which gave us some of the greatest songs that to this day you can you're not arguing that this ain't one of the most important moments in hip hop's history. This season of music. This is when um Andre set up and said, well, you know, the South got something to say, and we've

all been Southern fans since anyway. This is the same one when Snoop brought a low Rider onto the stage. This just again, I'm going back to the authenticity. But this moment in time, like people ended up dying, you know. Snoop tells a story about when Pod had a thing with Nas and they ran into each other in Vegas and Nas was cool about it. He was like, what's something man, And Snoop tells the story. He's like, listen,

I'm a gangbanger. I know what I'm looking at. And he knows, you know, gang situation in New York is very different, you know what I'm saying. But like he was like, um, I know what I'm looking at. Like, so he was trying to tell basically, let pak know, like, Yo, you're not seeing what I'm seeing, Like, you need to pipe down because like I'm reading the room and it's like, oh, it could go down bad, right. So he's telling this story. He's trying to tell his homeboy, like, Yo, you need

to chill. There's another moment when you know. Snoop did the New York New York song Big City of Your Dreams, flew out to New York in the middle of this beef and was down to do a song about it with the dog Pound. I Ain't scared of you, mother, because I'm principaled. But when he was on the radio, they asked him and he and he heard it. When he came back home, they asked him, how you feel about bad Boy. He was like, I ain't got no problem with him. I like Bickie. I'm a fan of Bickie.

I want to do a song all of them, Biggie with Kim Like I'm down. Fools are like, I can't believe you said that. He was like, that's how I felt. That stuff you got with Big Ain't got nothing to do with me. That's your problem. And he's like, he asked me about it when I get back, asked me about I stand on my square. I am what I am. I said what I said. That's that's what you got with him. They ain't got nothing to do with me. He was one of the only few voices that were

calling for peace. You're talking about somebody who's like, you know, history will speak kindly, somebody who didn't get active during that time. And then and then how history proved him right because Big Ain't had nothing to do with pox death. He talking about Snoop talking about now on this on This Drink Champs podcast that like yo, his kids. His sons and Puffy sons are friends. They were spending the night like they homies. They went to college together, they

was playing sports together. He was like this, no, we're grown. As he stood on his square, he stayed principal. He is who he always was. He's just evolved and grown. You ain't seeing no flip floppy. He's principled. I keep the code. That beef that you've got that ain't my beef, and I dare you to challenge me on it. He principled. I'm not gonna die over this, and I ain't gonna let you die over this. And that's something that a lot of politicians ain't got, y'all. Y'all testing to win

and seeing what up. Snoop ain't test to win. This is who I am. This is what I believe. He weathered one of the most important moments in hip hop and didn't die and ain't lose his integrity. Ain't nobody questioning him, Nobody on nobody's side. Nobody got issues with Snoop. It's some people today that's like, because he's talking about doing a bad boy, you know, death row sort of collapse kind of n f tem People like Nick's died over this. He was like, that's all the more reason

we should be fixing this. Someone say Snoop is principled in the sense or maybe he ain't principled in the sense that he set up his whole joint in Inglewood. He was like, I came for the kids. We're done killing like this over I'm coming out. He's like, I lock in with who I lock in with. I got blood hommies over there. I got crib homies over there. They know what I'm coming to brain. We bring in financial security, we bringing opportunity. We're bringing stuff for the kids.

And Inglewood funk with me because I funk with them, because I kept it real with him. That's he's principled and his actions prove it. Number Three, he don't take himself too serious. Do you all remember the scene I believe it was don't be a menace when he was swinging at the at the at the air the way that uh Cuba Gooding Junior and boys in the Hood. He looked ridiculous at that, but he was cracking jokes.

You don't do a show with Martha Stewart if you if you're too precious about yourself don't be too precious about yourself. He ain't precious about himself. Bad bunny stuff, the cartoons. He's willing to be silly because he's a fully developed person. And why he's willing to be silly because he knows who he knew. He is here, authentic, I'm down to crack jokes. It's fine. The Tales from the Hood, the Little Scary what he did, the scary movies.

It's cool. He ain't precious about himself because he ain't got nothing to prove. He knows who he is. You're authentic. And fourth, Snoop is trustworthy. Snoop say what he do and do what he say. There's never I can't think of, like I'm trying to tell you, I can't think of no stories where Snoop was caught up in some drama or some like controversy where he said this and she said that he don't get in it. You don't. You don't see that from him. Snoop got his wife. You know,

he cooled with Bishop. Do you know his you know his mama when his mama passed. You know, his mama was an evangelist. She was like, he just he's got this like fortification about him. He did a gospel where he's like, there's just no stories about him being an issue. He smoked his weed. You don't care if it's the president or Bishop din White smoke his weed. He got his lady, he got his kids. You say her grandfather

now fifty year is old. I am who I am, and you could trust my word if I say I'm coming here and doing this, I'm coming here and doing this. When he said he taking over death row, he was like, I'm here to make sure the people that didn't get paid get paid, should got taken care of. That's what he says. In drink tramps, suld got taken care of, but warrngy and get taken care of. Dad's didn't get taken care of. Corel up and get take care. He was like, I don't owe my masters. He was like,

I need to. I want my master's dog. Like this is ridiculous, Like I'm gonna makeup business move right here, and the brilliance of his business move y'all just going to listen to Jak Chances there's too much to explain, but his the brilliance of his business MOVI. He says he approached him. He was like, look, I want my master's. They was like, yeah, dude, we're fans, all right. How much of your master? He was like, how much is it? They gave him the number. He was like, god, damn, okay,

that's how much more? Man? He was like, okay, well, how much for the whole imprint? And that it was cheaper to buy the whole imprint of death Row than it was to just buy his master. So he got the imprint, But what you're gonna do with the imprint without the masters? Went back and got the masters. Now that you own an imprint, got everybody's masters, pulled them off streaming services, creating his own streaming services, and building

a metaverse world to make sure everybody gets paid. How he was able to do that while being the president of death or the Yeah, the president of death Jam. He trustworthy? Why would you put a West Coast dude on top of death Jam? Because he went and found Benny the Butcher and Griselda. It offered him niggas deals because he because real recognized real, how are you able to walk so freely? Somebody like that who locked into the streets able to walk around New York? Good? Because

real recognized real, They recognized him. He went in there. He made sure they got that they got a good deal. He set up Benny the Butchet like Snoop. So Snoop put on for New York. This this is unheard of. Are you gonna question his West Coast car because he put on for New York? Nope, because he is real as it gets. Next thing, Snoop do snoopag's respect. He don't claim nothing that's not his. I heard this full wrapping entire ice Cube Verse wrapped an entire pimp c

Verse was wrapping some bis MARKI lyrics. He knows where he came from, and you know who came before him. You don't hear that from politicians. You don't hear them giving up props for props to dude. And lastly, Snoop is generous. You can check the stats. I know people personally affected by Snoop's generosity, his inner city programs, his interventions. And it's not just with gang members. There's people with special needs that work at them at the compound. He's

investing in the community. They all from every creed, every race, every color. He came and he brought love. And you can check his credentials. All this is verifiable. Snoop got a lot to teach our politicians. He ain't afraid to be uncool. He don't, he don't, he ain't precious. He's authentic, he's trustworthy, he's generous, and he's principal. I'd vote for him, But politics, y'all. H yeah, This here thing was recorded by ME Propaganda in East Lows, boil Heights, Los Angeles, California.
