boys thanks for a really cool anno domini 2022 ! i pulled off so many things i thought i couldn't (organising, layouting and producing my first zine, rendering water bubbles, moving out &more) in the face of obstacles that i thought would be the death of me (dhl being a little bitch, unstable housing, literally never having layouted for print before, shitty zine samples, more than half of the printed zines being damaged etc) YET HERE WE ARE!
feeling incredibly lucky and so so grateful for all the support everyone has shown me, especially on the maglor zine! a huge shoutout to people who leave comments in the tags of my work when reblogging, i read ALL of them - your words keep me going! i recently also went through the asks i've received this year again and teared up a bit :') thank you for loving what i do 🤝 I LOVE WHAT I DO !
coming in 2023: The SONS OF FËANOR nailsinmywall zine

More Disco Elysium (definitely spoilers):
I have, at this point, completed one in-game day.
So, some interesting shit, both on its own and when considered in combination: 1) talking to the dead body. Did not expect that. I read this more of an abstraction—Harry (apparently) talking to himself, or whatever it is that’s in his head. 2) Only got to the title card when I opened the ledger. I honestly thought I’d died for a second and the game had restarted---we went back to that “reptilian brain/limbic system” conversation space from the opening, what happens when Harry passes out, I guess. But like, okay. What that basically confirms for me is something I already sort of suspected; the murder is, to at least some degree, incidental to whatever the actual story is here. The real story is whatever’s going on with Harry.
Which, okay, hold on. Given the sort of ambiguous ontology re: the real world that I was talking about last time, makes me wonder…This is a dream, isn’t it? Or something like that. Something not quite “real,” in the traditional sense. So the two stories are kind of one story—all the shit going on in this world re: racism/labor/disco somehow reflects the more personal story. Harry did make an explicit connection between himself and the body (or the body did, I’m not sure, but like… that’s what I mean). I dunno. I’m spitballing here, maybe they aren’t going that far with it, but this line of thinking is encouraging me to try and find parallels/connections in a way I wasn’t before, so I’m rollin’ it around in the ol’ noggin’ for the moment (you might say I have it equipped to one of my thought slots…)
(I have some more “what if, though” ideas that spin out from that, but they’re wild speculation still at this point.)
But more in-world mystery stuff.. the fuck was Call Me Mañana talking about when he said “Thank him [Cuno] for showing me the *way.*” What way? What does that mean? It’s an odd thing to say. It didn’t let me ask about that, but like… There is a part of me that thinks maybe Cuno is just building himself up, just messing with me. But then this comes along. It reenforces the feeling that that kid has some SHIT up his sleeve. Also, what’s CMM’s deal? Why did Joyce hear about the lynching from HIM? He says he doesn’t work in a gatekeeping capacity, but like… what capacity DOES he work in?
Got into the apartments, tracking down the smoking fellow. Apparently I have to come back tomorrow? (Still on the first day.) But who is his “friend?” Also, the dead guy has stars tattooed all over him and now there’s an astrologer with a padlocked door? Hm. Also Either 1) the cleaning lady is lying about Apt 10, or… something else is happening. Something, perhaps not dissimilar from Harry speaking to voices? Or it’s squatters, I guess. Either way, not sure what to do with that information yet, but noted.
Cindy’s pretty rad. At least, based on that first interaction. Also lol @ “the subject’s evident hostility to her interviewer” in the profile of C.S. in the communist magazine, cos yeah, I can see that. So she’s not a fan of pigs or communists… and she talks about bringing a little chaos to town… hm. The more I think about that, the more I’m getting like the Spock-eyebrow about it.
Did Cuonoesse just quote Snoop Dogg at me?
Bird’s Nest Roy said something about “The Man from Hjelmdall” being “an ontological necessity.” The story has made it so that he exists. Like, I feel like he’s telling me something about the nature of this world, you know?
OH MY GOD I FINALLY MADE THE STUPID JUMP DOWN TO THE COAT. Just had to take 2 points in Savoir Faire, find new pants and a sweaty tanktop, and take off my shoes. Yeesh. Good, though. I didn’t wanna have to deal with Measurehead anymore. But, of course, by the time I got there, it was after 22:00.
So I’m talking to the Bloated Corpse of a Drunk, and ask him what Elysium is, because… I would like to know that. I’m trying to make sense of his answer. But he also says “You were just talking to yourself. That’s all you ever do. Even in your dreams. And the act is wearing thin, the spots of the disco ball fade around you.” Which like, comes back to the whole “this whole thing is a dream, or maybe a dying mind unraveling its trauma, Mulholland Drive style, or something” hypothesis. (Why did the car tell me it’s “at the bottom of the sea?”) But what does it mean that “four point six billion people—and you failed every one of them?” Is that hyperbole or…?
Annnnd I wound up my play session by accidentally agreeing to find some speed, but… I mean, who hasn’t accidentally agreed to find and ingest some powerful drugs, amirite?

it’s my golden birthday, 25 on the 25th!! so i made a lil scrapbook collage thingy to honor all the jades ive been so far (the most leo thing i couldve possibly done 🤡😂). and in the words of our lord & savior Snoop Dogg id like to say, “Last but not least, I wanna thank me. I wanna thank me for believing in me, I wanna thank me for doing all this hard work, I wanna thank me for having no days off, I wanna thank me for, for never quitting, I wanna thank me for always being a giver and tryna give more than I recieve, I wanna thank me for tryna do more right than wrong, I wanna thank me for just being me at all times.” without my past selves, i wouldn’t be where or who i am today! thanks for sticking it out even when its been hard so i can continue to live this beautiful life ��🏻

I Wanna Thank Me feat.Marknoxx - Snoop Dogg
昨日のHotなニューリリースといえばスヌープのアルバム"I Wanna Thank Me"ですよね。
ハリウッドでスター勲章を授与された際の記念スピーチで、スヌープ自身が
「オレはオレ自身に感謝したい」と自���を称えまくった声から始まる1曲がアルバムタイトルになっています。
Last but not least, I wanna thank me
まず言いたい、オレはオレ自身に感謝したい
I wanna thank me for believing in me
オレは自分のことを信じている自分自身に感謝したい
I wanna thank me for doing all this hard work
オレはすべてのハードワークをこなす自分に感謝したい
I wanna thank me for having no days off
オレは全くの休暇を取らない自分に感謝したい
I wanna thank me for... for never quitting
オレは‥決して辞めない自分に感謝したい
I wanna thank me for always being a giver
オレは決して挫折者にならない自分に感謝したい
And tryna give more than I receive
そしてさらに、オレ自身が受け取った感謝よりさらに与えようとしているんだ
I wanna thank me for tryna do more right than wrong
オレは間違ったことより正しいことをやろうとする自分に感謝したい
I wanna thank me for just being me at all times
オレはいつでも自分自身で居続ける自分に感謝したい
Snoop Dogg, you a bad motherfucker
スヌープ・ドッグ、お前はひどいマザファッカーだな
自分のこと褒めすぎだろ!と思うけど、今年48歳になる彼。
ヒップホップに始まり映画やバラエティ番組出演、さらに料理本の出版など、常に新しいチャレンジを試みている彼は、それだけ賞賛されるべき存在。
ただでさえ黒人差別があった十数年前のアメリカでヒップホップ最前線を歩んできたアーティストが、今じゃレッドカーペットやお茶の間テレビ番組に出てくるんです。後にも先にも、レジェンド的存在であることは間違いないでしょうね。
最近は日本でもラップやヒップホップダンスが注目されるようになりました。街中でのストリートパフォーマンスもよく見られますね。
オリジナルとしてヒップホップの文化を持っていないとはいえ、今後もっと受け入れて独自のカルチャーが育っていけば素晴らしいです。
P.S.スヌープのスピーチについて知らなかった人は観てみてね↓

49. The best can go to M Countdown with it, A gets center and the ult center gets a solo part

61. Within 10 minutes A rank fucking aces the dance as a whole, sure its not perfect but it looks GREAT

63. Daehwi has problems with the high notes poor lil kid
64. Namhyun, Sungwoo and Sungwoon have no problems hitting it though

74. Bae Jinyoung keeps looking at the ground SHY BOY but he also messed up his singing poor kiddo
75. B team has the same vocal coach as A and I think D has the same dude
76. Honestly I fucking hate that dude he’s so rude to rapper kids and doesn’t even help him and Mnet tries to play it off like ‘haha tsundere’ but no he’s just an asshole
77. One of the rappers does adlibs lol
78. But everyone else are just in pain I fucking hate this system so much
79. Woojin is a small baby but sings like gold

93. Everyone are saying they are anticipating Minhyun to move up by a rank but his clip is awful I’m so fucking sad dude I don’t have any words to express my absolute misery he looks so beaten up and other trainees are trying to console him I’m so fucking sad
94. Now it’s Baekho’s turn, he doesn’t do too well either but it def isn’t THAT bad and mnet is just trying to make NU’EST look bad because they aren’t showing JR’s clip even though he was good enough to move up to B grade
95. The dude with the best singing voice, Gunhee, his singing voice broke rip
96. Moonbok’s clip wasn’t good and everyone are sad bc he practiced a lot
97. Kwon Hyunbin from YGk+ does really shit and I feel soooooooooooo sorry because he isn’t doing good and people aren’t vvoting for him either but it just won’t come out right and im SO SORRY FOR HIM AAAAAAAGHHHHHH and like YGk+ is a modelling company so he wont debut and then theres this kid Ha Minho who I like too and his rank is like what 94 rn hes gonna fucking die. I hate this show why is it so addicting

105. And to end it now they’re getting the reevaluation grades and a bunch of kids are moving up I’m glad but they aren’t showing anyone’s new grades
And now, also good screencaps that didn’t make it into the top 9, some funny, some depressing, Also I’m ready to stab anyone who came up with the goddamn food and bathroom break ration they’re doing by rank like what is this u cant dance u cant eat?? well hello there stalin

Mike Huckabee knows people hate his Twitter jokes
Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee arriving at Trump Tower last November. (Photo: Spencer Platt/Getty Images)
Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee is well aware his Twitter witticisms elicit eye rolls and groans; he just doesn’t care.
The two-time presidential candidate’s 140-character comedy show frequently pops up in Twitter feeds of journalists and political operatives, inspiring professional critiques and even a Jimmy Kimmel skit, along with countless pleas to give his thumbs a rest.
His shtick consists of corny (and sometimes confusing) quips regarding various current events. Among other things, his freewheeling tweets have referred to Snoop Dogg as “Poop Dogg,” compared Senate Democrats to turkeys he’s hunted, and equated Comcast service, unfavorably, with the Obama administration.
Huckabee recently told Yahoo News that he embraces a genre he calls “groan humor,” and encourages his detractors to buzz off. “If it is absolutely causing you to be constipated, then for heaven’s sakes, get off my Twitter feed,” he said.
“I know there are people who will respond back with a smiley face, or an LOL, or some indication … they were at least slightly amused,” Huckabee said. “I find that pleasurable.”
A transcript of the interview, edited for clarity and length, is below.
Do you write all your own tweets?
Yes, I don’t want to implicate anyone else in my activities that would forever scar their reputations and future.
They don’t go through any of your staff members or anything like that?
Much to their regret, no. It used to. It used to. In fact, when I was a candidate and everybody was so nervous about everything I would say. You know, I didn’t even have my own Twitter password. They kept it from me.
Really?
Yeah, there were so many people that were nervous about what I would do and of course now they know that they were very wise in feeling that way. But after the campaign I said, “I want to be able to do what I want.” So, I do.
Do you read the responses to your tweets?
Occasionally. I read some of them. And the ones that are mean towards me, I don’t care. That’s part of the deal and some of them are funny. Quite frankly, some of the things people say back to me — that are intended to be mean — I find amusing. But when they attack members of my family, to me that’s, that’s hateful.
Tell me about your joke-writing process.
Well, I tell people, look, I write for my own amusement. I find Twitter amusing to me. And so I share it, and a lot of people — you know, most of my humor is what I call groan humor, groaning people, oh boy. Groaning, g-r-o-a-n. Intentionally, It’s just sort of the kind of stuff that causes people to just maybe smile but they’re in on the joke, they get it, that it’s intended, tongue-in-cheek.
I picked out a few standout tweets of yours to see if you could give me background information or walk me through how you came up with them, or just give me your reaction to them now that some time has passed:
[Laughing] Oh, no.
During Gorsuch’s confirmation hearing:
Breaking News! Jimmy Dean Sausage Co will be renamed GORSUCH SAUSAGE because he's grinding up some Democrat Senators into PURE PORK SAUSAGE!
— Gov. Mike Huckabee (@GovMikeHuckabee) March 21, 2017
I grew up with Jimmy Dean Sausage commercials, first of all. It’s a little bit of a play on the thought that — there’s the old saying: ‘Two things you should never see made are sausage and laws.’
And it’s also the fact that I thought that while there were many of the Democratic senators — who I’m convinced thought they were just gonna take Gorsuch down and make him totally look like a fool — he came across as a very reasonable, responsible, very thoughtful constitutional scholar. And I was frankly stunned at how little they could go after him and get anything on him. I mean, they just couldn’t seem to lay a glove on him. … And so, for me, it was just a matter of, he ground them up into sausage. I thought it was funny.
After Rachel Maddow revealed two pages of Trump’s 2005 tax return:
Rachel Maddow tonight reveals Amelia Earhart & Jimmy Hoffa are found; they married and had a child–Snoop Dog, who paid no taxes ever!
— Gov. Mike Huckabee (@GovMikeHuckabee) March 15, 2017
I was embarrassed for Rachel Maddow the night that she breathlessly teased for 23 minutes that she had something really remarkable. And what she found out was that Donald Trump was very, very rich, and he paid a whole lot of money in taxes. And I thought, “Boy, now there’s a revelation for us all. Stop the presses here. Tell the New York Times to hold the front page.” I mean, seriously, I was embarrassed for her. And this will surprise you: I actually like Rachel Maddow. I think she is who she is. She’s good at what she does. And I’ve been on her show in the past and frankly enjoyed it. She was very fair to me when I was on her show.
After now Attorney General Jeff Sessions admitted to meeting with the Russian ambassador:
Full disclosure:I have NOT met with Russian AMB, but did have Russian dressing on a salad last September. I'll recuse from salads for a week
— Gov. Mike Huckabee (@GovMikeHuckabee) March 3, 2017
Yeah. [Laughs] Well, I’ve been amazed at how this whole Russian theme has just dominated so much of the conversation about Donald Trump. As if, you know, Donald Trump is two-stepping down Fifth Avenue from Trump Tower to Central Park every morning and making a secret phone call to Putin. With no evidence. … And, you know, to keep pretending that they interfered in our elections, I’m thinking, well I’m sure if they did, they wish they hadn’t, because Trump is not exactly making them wanna give him the “Friend of Russia Award” right now.
During the Oscars:
Watch celebs spew ignorant political venom at Oscars?? Nah…think I'd rather have a colonoscopy. Both happen from same location.
— Gov. Mike Huckabee (@GovMikeHuckabee) February 26, 2017
[Laughs] Yeah. Yeah, that one got a lot more reaction than I thought it would. First of all, I’m a movie fan. I love film … but if I watch the art of a movie, I don’t really care what the actor’s politics are. That’s not why I’m watching. And I’m watching their art. And their politics is their business and that’s fine. When they try to impose it on me in the context of the Oscars and turn something that oughta be the celebration of their art into almost some self-immolation, setting themselves on fire about who got elected, I just wanna say, you’re ruining your own moment here. You know, just go up and take the award and thank the people that helped you get it and let us enjoy your craft and your brilliance at doing it.
Last month:
I Tweet for my amusement and your amazement. To haters trolls and humorless people-you really shouldn't follow me. It's way over your head!
— Gov. Mike Huckabee (@GovMikeHuckabee) March 21, 2017
[Laughs] Yeah, you know, one of the things that amazes me most is that everyday I probably have a hundred people tell me, “Delete your account,” “Why are you doing this?” “You’re not funny,” “You’re miserable.” And I’m thinking, “Last time I checked, there’s not a single law in any one of the 50 states that require you to follow me on Twitter.” So, if this is killing you, if it is absolutely causing you to be constipated, then for heaven sakes, get off my Twitter feed. Just go follow somebody that will let you go freely. But leave me alone! I mean, that’s what I don’t understand. … I find it absurd that people act like they have the right to shut down someone else’s speech. Now, it’s different if I’m holding them hostage, and if by law they had to read my tweets everyday. Sure, I’d get that they would be upset.
Your jokes are almost always current events, mostly political happenings. Is there any subject matter you consider off-limits?
You know, a lot of the comedians, like Jerry Seinfeld, won’t even play college campuses anymore because everybody gets offended by every joke. And I realize that comedy can be offensive. I think it’s one of the great aspects of free speech is that people should have some leeway in saying things, even offensive things. And if it’s truly offensive, and somebody can point out why it’s so offensive, then they can apologize for it. But I think a lot of the people’s hurts that they demand an apology for, it’s manufactured. They’re not really hurt. They’re not personally injured by it. Their feelings aren’t so shattered that they’re not gonna be able to have breakfast in the morning. And I just find it’s absurd and I want everybody to grow up and say, look, people say things all the time. My entire life, I had people say things that were intended to hurt me.
Have you ever tweeted something you later regretted or admit now wasn’t a good joke?
Oh, I’ve done a lot that, later on, I thought, That was really stupid. And my kids are usually the ones who are the first to either text me or call me or email and say, “Dad, are you serious? We’re gonna take the Twitter account away from you.” You know kids. Yeah, they’re my worst critics. [Laughs]
What’s the reaction like from your family, friends, and staff?
Normally, it’s, they roll their eyes and sometimes they just tell me, please, don’t do that again. But, you know, that’s OK. Occasionally they actually think something I did was funny.
You mentioned Jerry Seinfeld earlier. Do you have any favorite comedians?
Oh, there’s a lot. Seinfeld is great. I saw him in concert, he was just amazing. And … I like some of the old-school comedians. The days of Alan King, who was so funny back on the Ed Sullivan show when I was a kid and would watch stuff like that. Rita Rudner is to me one of the funniest people alive, because she’s so subtle and none of her humor is over-the-top. It’s not profane; it’s clean, but it’s hilarious. … I like it when people make me laugh because what they said is just so stinking funny. And, you know, to me, Seinfeld is that brand of comedian.
Finally, the president is an avid Twitter user. Do you have any tips for him?
[Laughs] You think he would listen if I gave him any? [Laughs] You know, I know a lot of people have been on him for it and, you know, sometimes he’ll tweet something and I’m thinking, “Uh-oh, that’s gonna leave a mark.”
But here’s my assessment of it: It’s been so rare that we’ve ever been able to kind of know what a president really thinks. Because they’re so scripted, they’re so controlled — they are so inside this very thick bubble and protected by so many people in the palace guard — that the president really is not a real person anymore. So, I find it incredibly refreshing that this president is allowing us, even when we kind of go, “Uh-oh,” and even recoil at what he might say, that we have a real clear picture. Hey, this is a real human being with passions and feelings, and he has reactions.
And I find it refreshing, because the American president was never intended to be royalty, removed from the people, but rather a servant of the people and a reflection of them. And so, rather than hope that he gives away his Twitter and never does another tweet again, I find it refreshing.

Growing up, my parents kept us hella sheltered. I mean, they were strict Pentecostals sooooo
But anywho, since my dad grew up in Mill Valley, CA in the 1970’s, he was just an asshole old man hipster wanna be and since my mother was raised to believe the bs of the Pentecostal church (aka no pants for women, no movies ever, dancing being a one way ticket to hell etc. etc.), my brothers and sister were never allowed to listen to the radio which means that until we got our own phones we had to just listen to what they were listening to and not complain about it.
While my dad liked underground punk rock and retro heavy alternative, that’s what I listened to with him but since he was bat shit, I never spent time with him. Mostly just my mom who is completely obsessed with Mariah Carey, no pun intended.
She had every album, every remix, every collab project, literally everything Mariah, she had.
I literally remember when The Emancipation of Mimi was released in 2003. I was in 3rd grade and that album was all I heard for a year, at least.
Maybe my mom constantly blasting Mariah Carey during my entire developmental period has something to do with me being gay now 😂😂😂and I still say she was my very first musical idol and I still get fucking hypnotized by her indescribable talent.
But ever since her little lip syncing mishap on NYE, I haven’t been able to turn off Mariah’s music. [btw, every artist uses back tracks. YOU try to wear what she was wearing, do what she was doing, and try belting out some whistle tones - lmk how THAT fiasco goes]
So here’s some of my faves of hers, some from Childhood Nostalgia and just a couple new ones of hers so everyone can remember the musical genius that IS MARIAH CAREY.
Track list: 1. Faded [prod. Mike Will Made It] 2. Crybaby [prod. Damizza] feat. Snoop Dogg 3. Breakdown [The Mo’ Thugs Remix] feat. Bone Thugs-n-Harmony 4. The Roof [Mobb Deep Remix] feat. Mobb Deep 5. Thank God I Found You [Make It Last Remix] feat. Nostradamus, Joe & Nas 6. Stay the Night [prod. Kanye West] 7. I’ll Be Loving You Long Time [prod. DJ Troomp] feat. T.I. 8. We Belong Together [DJ Clue Remix] feat. Jadakiss & Styles P 9. Its Like That [prod. Jermaine Dupri & Manuel Seal] 10. Shake It Off [prod. Jermaine Dupri & Bryan-Michael Cox] 11. Loverboy [Kim Clark Remix] feat. Da Brat, Ludacris, Twenty || & Shawnna 12. Heartbreaker [prod. DJ Clue] feat. Jay Z 13. Didn’t Mean to Turn You On [prod. Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis] 14.

Too Short, N.W.A., Public Enemy, Mc Shan, Dougie Fresh. Snoop Dogg, & Dr.Dre. My junior year of high school, my best friend Randy Dixion (RIP). Brought a video to school … the video contained…someone & something that would change my mind and inspire my to do and become who i am today. Master P's Ice Cream Man Video started playing…..that was 1996. I tried my hand at rapping, but never liked to hear my voice. I eventually decided to just study and learn the business part of the Music Industry. Now I'm a artist manager & online promoter. I have my own company Bird's Eye View Management & Promotions. I have several artist signed under my management. I run online promo for anything No Limit, Tru Muscle Entertainment (BigCourt), ShockerWorldEnt (SilkkTheShocker) & Bird's Eye View.

'Awards Chatter' Podcast — Snoop Dogg ('Martha & Snoop's Potluck Dinner Party')
http://styleveryday.com/2017/08/25/awards-chatter-podcast-snoop-dogg-martha-snoops-potluck-dinner-party/
'Awards Chatter' Podcast — Snoop Dogg ('Martha & Snoop's Potluck Dinner Party')
“I’m like a cat, man, I’ve got nine lives,” says Snoop Dogg, one of the most popular and influential music artists of the last quarter-century — a trailblazer in the world of gangsta rap and hip-hop who has received 17 Grammy nominations over the years, thanks to hits like “What’s My Name,” “Gin & Juice” and “Drop It Like It’s Hot” — as we sit down to record an episode of The Hollywood Reporter‘s ‘Awards Chatter’ podcast. We’re deep inside The Compound, a well-fortified building in Inglewood, Calif., that he owns and that’s filled with recording studios, screening rooms, a basketball court and ample supplies of marijuana, several blunts of which he smokes during our time together. “I’m connected,” he continues, explaining his secrets of survival. “I keep my ear to the streets, I never play the role of being too big or too grown or too much. I actually converted myself from big ‘Snoop Dogg’ to ‘Uncle Snoop’ — that’s the new thing. The rap generation treats me like I’m their uncle because I’ve always treated them like my nephews and showed ’em love and respected ’em and taught ’em and showed ’em the right way and never tried to get ’em in trouble and helped ’em out and just done that uncle thing that was never done for us in hip-hop.”
The rap generation isn’t the only one that loves Snoop Dogg. In fact, it’s hard to find anyone these days who isn’t high — pardon the pun — on the 45-year-old, a cool and colorful character who always looks like he just smoked (he probably did), never raises his voice and constantly finds way to reinvent himself and appeal to new and unexpected groups of people. Case in point? Snoop and Martha Stewart, of all people, are currently not only co-hosts of a VH1 cooking show, Martha & Snoop’s Potluck Dinner Party, but also each other’s biggest fans — and together are frontrunners to win the Emmy for outstanding host for a reality or reality competition program. “I find ways to make it interesting and still remain me at all times,” he says of life itself. “I’ve been able to be as gangsta as I want to be and be as positive as I want to be because that’s all part of me.”
(Click above to listen to this episode or here to access all of our 172 episodes via iTunes. Past guests include Steven Spielberg, Oprah Winfrey, Lorne Michaels, Meryl Streep, Eddie Murphy, Lady Gaga, Robert De Niro, Emma Stone, Will Smith, Jennifer Lopez, Louis C.K., Reese Witherspoon, Harvey Weinstein, Natalie Portman, Jerry Seinfeld, Jane Fonda, Ryan Reynolds, Nicole Kidman, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Taraji P. Henson, Justin Timberlake, Elisabeth Moss, Michael Moore, Kristen Stewart, J.J. Abrams, Helen Mirren, Denzel Washington, Brie Larson, Aziz Ansari, Stephen Colbert, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Warren Beatty, Jessica Chastain, Samuel L. Jackson, Kate Winslet, Sting, Tyler Perry, Amy Schumer, Jay Leno, Mandy Moore, Ricky Gervais, Kris Jenner & Jimmy Kimmel.
Snoop Dogg, who was born Calvin Broadus, Jr. and raised by a single mother in Long Beach, Calif., first burst onto the scene in 1992 as “Snoop Doggy Dogg.” He had been given the first part of the nickname by his mom, who felt that he loved the Peanuts character so much that he started to look like him; the second part was a play on the nickname of his cousin, who went by Tate Doggy Dogg. Snoop grew up singing in church and listening to old-school R&B music, but when gangsta rap first emerged in the 1980s, he fell in love with it and began singing it in the hallways at school, drawing crowds even then. Though he was a peacemaker inside the building, Snoop was drawn to the gang life just outside of it, perhaps seeking a father-figure. And though his activities with the Crips ultimately landed him in jail, he still says, “I’m thankful to have been part of a gang because that taught me leadership, brotherhood, understanding, right from wrong.”
While in jail, Snoop began rapping about fellow prisoners, some of whom convinced him to stay on the straight-and-narrow (more or less) so that he could realize the full potential of his gift. Once back on the outside, he teamed with Nate Dogg and Warren G to form the group 213, and audio cassettes of their music soon began selling like hotcakes out of car trunks. One tape made it into the hands of Dr. Dre, who was impressed and took Snoop under his wing; some Snoop-written songs (“Nuthin’ But a G Thang”) and many Snoop-rapped verses can be heard on Dre’s first album apart from NWA, 1992’s The Chronic, which proved a hit and led to Snoop himself signing with the same record label that repped Dre, Death Row Records. A year later, Snoop’s own debut album, Doggystyle, was released and, on the back of singles such as “What’s My Name” and “Gin & Juice,” debuted at No. 1, went multi-platinum and made him the face of Death Row — just as he was facing murder charges in connection to an incident that he suggests was a misunderstanding.
Snoop ultimately was found not guilty and emerged back into society just as gangsta rap’s East Coast-West Coast rivalry was reaching a boiling point at and after the 1995 Source Awards, catching some of his closest friends in the crosshairs. “None of the rappers were violent, but their homies were,” he explains. And by the time he put out his second album, The Doggfather, in 1996, his good friend Tupac Shakur was dead, Death Row chief Suge Knight was headed to jail and, with “everybody gone,” Snoop decided, he says, that he “just didn’t wanna be gangsta no more.” He began turning away from gangsta life and towards “pimp life,” with which he “was always infatuated as a kid,” and he feels that may actually have saved his life: “Without me having that strength to pull away, I don’t think I’d be here today.” By 2000, Snoop was projecting a friendlier version of himself, peppering his speech and songs with the idiosyncratic suffix “izzle,” starting with 2000’s “What’s My Name (Part 2)”; creating a youth football league in 2005; and even receiving an invitation to the White House to meet President Barack Obama (“a beautiful person”) in 2013.
Through it all, weed remained omnipresent in his life — but then again, that only made him look even more ahead of the curve, as the rest of the country began catching up. Snoop says he first stole a puff at the age of 6 and never turned back, because, in his view, why should he? “Look how good I look! Look how my mind works! Look how I’m on-point and I’m spontaneous in my answers and everything is flowing! Look how smooth my skin is! Look how long my hair is! Look at how I breathe! You understand me? I don’t do no alcohol, I don’t smoke no cigarettes, I just do this right here, and this is the results of it.” He reveals that the only person who ever out-smoked him was Willie Nelson (“He fucked me up … in Amsterdam on 4/20 about eight years ago. … It was like the mothafuckin’ Olympics”) and that his favorite munchie is Funyuns.
So how, you might wonder, does a man with this background wind up working alongside Stewart, the pride of lily-white Westport, Connecticut? “She’s been loving and caring towards people in hip-hop since day one,” Snoop asserts, noting that he also was “a fan” of hers and twice was a guest on her home living TV show. “She was always ‘hood’ to us.” The two wound up seated next to each other at Comedy Central’s 2015 roast of Justin Bieber, meaning Stewart inhaled a lot of second-hand smoke that, she later joked, left her feeling high. Whether or not she actually was, her roasting of Bieber was hilarious and went viral — “She fuckin’ stole the show,” Snoop recalls — and one of many who noticed was Chris McCarthy, president of MTV, VH1 & Logo, who was looking for a cooking show that might appeal to millennials. He pitched Stewart and Snoop, both said yes and, in tandem with producer SallyAnn Salsano (Jersey Shore), they hit the kitchen — or at least a set with side-by-side kitchens — along with celebrity guests ranging from Seth Rogen to Wiz Khalifa.
Snoop and Stewart look like they’re having a blast on the show, which Snoop says he does only because he enjoys hanging with Stewart, not because he needs further fame and fortune. With her, Snoop has a dynamic that shifts between mother/son, brother/sister and boyfriend/girlfriend. “She gets me white-boy wasted and I think it’s on purpose,” he chuckles, while confessing that he may have introduced Stewart, who doesn’t knowingly consume marijuana, to some anyway: “I may have dropped a few seeds here and there, ya dig?” More seriously, he says, “I’m learning from her a few things, and I’m also teaching her a few things,” adding, “She’s a survivor and she’s a beautiful spirit and I just love being around her ’cause she teaches me so much on etiquette and presentation and just how to be a better person. I’m thankful to have her as a friend and have her as a companion on television.”
Snoop continues, naughtily, “She’s beautiful, too! Did you see her old pictures when she used to rock them bathing suits? She was cold. She had those minks and she was sitting on the hill. She had nothin’ but bosses. She didn’t date no regular mothafuckas; you had to have at least a billion. ‘A hundred thousand? If you don’t get outta here! How many boats you got? You own what?'” More importantly, he emphasizes, she’s a role model. “Her age is the same age as Donald Trump,” he reasons. “You see his racist ways? That has nothing to do with right now. That’s the shit that’s in him, as far as how he was raised. If you’re raised that way, you’re raised that way; she wasn’t raised that way. She was raised to love people and have a kind spirit. She opens her home up, she feeds kids, she does things — she’s just a beautiful spirit. That’s attractive to me. It makes me want to be around that, because I want to grow to be her age and to be known for that — for somebody who’s not from my culture or not from my background to be able to do something with me and say, ‘Man, me and Snoop Dogg, we hit it off, and you would have never thought.'”
Man, me and Snoop Dogg, we hit it off, and you would have never thought!
