Snoop Dogg et Shante sont ensemble depuis près de 40 ans et mariés depuis 27 ans, ce qui est très rare chez les célébrités ! Snoop, de son vrai nom Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr, a rencontré Shante dans les années 1980 au lycée et a participé au bal de fin d'année ensemble en 1989. Ils se sont mariés en 1997.
Ils ont trois enfants Corde, 29 ans, Cordell, 26 ans, et Cori, 24 ans. Lorsqu'on lui demande ce qui fait que son mariage fonctionne, Snoop répond : « Nous étions tous les deux prêts à nous sacrifier l'un pour l'autre. Elle savait quels étaient mes rêves et mes objectifs, et en même temps, je savais quels étaient les siens ». « Pour fonder une famille et être ce que nous sommes, c'était difficile, sans aucun doute, parce qu'il y a tellement de choses différentes qui vous éloignent du mariage, et des gens qui divorcent tous les deux jours. Mais quand vous aimez vraiment quelqu'un, il n'y a rien que vous puissiez faire pour briser cette relation et j'ai l'impression que c'était un véritable coup de foudre ». En 2021, Snoop a officiellement fait de Shante son manager. Il a parlé de la façon dont elle l'a soutenu contre vents et marées dans sa carrière. Shante a guidé ma carrière en coulisses depuis le premier jour. Elle a toujours été mon dernier rempart pour toutes mes décisions, et je ne serais pas là où je suis aujourd'hui sans elle. Je suis reconnaissant de l'avoir comme manager officiel et de l'aider à construire l'empire Snoop Dogg ensemble, a-t-il déclaré. Elle-même a commenté j'ai été aux côtés de Snoop pendant plus de deux décennies. Avec le reste de l'équipe, notre objectif est de renforcer l'héritage de Snoop en tant que marque grâce à la loyauté et à la confiance de nos clients qui ont fait de Snoop ce qu'il est aujourd'hui.

🗣️So anyway, Snoop Dogg can kiss my Black ass
Kanye and Snoop are in the sunken place. Donald Trump is an existential threat to democracy and to anyone who isn’t white, male, straight, wealthy and Christian. Please don’t ever think that Black sellouts care about you or me just because we happen to share the same skin color.
As always, the words of MLKjr are as relevant as ever:
“Negroes are human, not superhuman. Like all people, they have differing personalities, diverse financial interests and varied aspirations. There are Negroes who will never fight for freedom. There are Negroes who seek profit for themselves alone from the struggle. There are even some Negroes who will go over to the other side. These facts should distress no one. Every minority and every people has its share of opportunists, traitors, freeloaders and escapists. The hammer blows of discrimination, poverty and segregation must warp and corrupt some. No one can pretend that because a people may be oppressed, every individual member is virtuous and worthy. The real issue is whether in the great mass the dominant characteristics are decency, honor and courage.”
—Martin Luther King Jr., from his speech “The Summer of Our Discontent”

Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr. (born October 20, 1971), also known by his stage name Snoop Dogg (previously Snoop Doggy Dogg), is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, record producer, media personality, and actor. His initial fame dates back to 1992 following his guest appearance on Dr. Dre's debut solo single, "Deep Cover", and later on Dre's debut album, The Chronic that same year. Broadus has since sold over 23 million albums in the United States, and 35 million albums worldwide. His accolades include an American Music Award, a Primetime Emmy Award, and 17 Grammy Award nominations.
Produced entirely by Dr. Dre, Broadus's debut studio album, Doggystyle (1993) was released by Death Row Records and debuted atop the Billboard 200. Selling 800,000 copies in its first week, the album received quadruple platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) the following year and spawned the Billboard Hot 100-top ten singles "What's My Name?" and "Gin and Juice". He was the lead performer on Death Row's soundtrack album for the 1994 short film Murder Was the Case, wherein Broadus made his acting debut. His second album, Tha Doggfather (1996), likewise debuted atop the chart and received double platinum certification.
In 1998, he parted ways with Death Row in favor of Master P's No Limit Records, through which he saw largely continued success with his albums Da Game Is to Be Sold, Not to Be Told (1998), No Limit Top Dogg (1999), and Tha Last Meal (2000). He then signed with Priority, Capitol, and EMI Records to release his sixth album Paid tha Cost to Be da Boss (2002), which was further commercially oriented. This effectively continued upon him signing with Geffen Records to release his next three albums: R&G (Rhythm & Gangsta): The Masterpiece (2004), Tha Blue Carpet Treatment (2006), and Ego Trippin' (2008); the former spawned the single "Drop It Like It's Hot" (featuring Pharrell), which became his first to peak atop the Billboard Hot 100. He then returned to Priority and Capitol—upon his hiring as chairman of the former label—to release his tenth and eleventh albums, Malice 'n Wonderland (2009) and Doggumentary (2011), both of which saw mild critical and commercial response.
During this time, Broadus starred in films and hosted several television shows, including Doggy Fizzle Televizzle, Snoop Dogg's Father Hood, and Dogg After Dark. In 2012, following a trip to Jamaica, Snoop converted to Rastafari and adopted the alias Snoop Lion, under which he released a reggae album, Reincarnated (2013), and a namesake documentary film about his Jamaican experience.
His thirteenth studio album, Bush (2015), was produced entirely by frequent collaborator Pharrell, while his fourteenth studio album, Coolaid (2016), was released the same year as his induction into the celebrity wing of the WWE Hall of Fame. In 2018, Broadus became "a born-again Christian" and released his first gospel album, Bible of Love in March of that year. In November of that year, Broadus was given a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In 2022, Broadus acquired Death Row Records from MNRK Music Group (formerly known as eOne Music), and released his nineteenth studio album, BODR (2022)—preceded by the independently-released I Wanna Thank Me (2019) and From tha Streets 2 tha Suites (2021).
The Washington Post, Billboard, and NME have called him a "West Coast icon"; and Press-Telegram, "an icon of gangsta rap". In 2006, Vibe magazine called him "The King of the West Coast". ABC News journalist Paul Donoughue, cited him among the 1990s acts that took hip-hop into the pop music charts. Broadus received the BMI Icon Award in 2011. In 2023, he was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame.
Broadus popularized the use of -izzle speak particularly in the pop and hip-hop music industry. A type of infix, it first found popularity when used by Frankie Smith in his 1981 hit song "Double Dutch Bus". The Guardian's Rob Fitzpatrick has credited his album Doggystyle for proving that rappers "could reinvent themselves", expanding rap's vocabulary, changing hip-hop fashions, and helping introduce a hip-hop genre called G-funk to a new generation. The album has been cited as an influence by rapper Kendrick Lamar, while fellow rappers ScHoolboy Q and Maxo Kream have also cited him as an influence.

Today In History
Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr., aka Snoop Dogg was born in Long Beach, California on this date October 20, 1971.
Snoop’s first appearance in hip hop came from a track he was featured on with Dr. Dre called, “Deep Cover,” for the film it’s named after, was an instant classic hit. His first album, Doggystyle (1993), climbed its way to the No. 1 spot on Billboard’s hip-hop and Top 200 charts, based in part on the success of the singles “Who Am I (What’s My Name)?” and “Gin and Juice.” It built on the G-Funk template that The Chronic had established, as Cypress Hill’s B-Real later reminisced: “I think Dr. Dre gave Snoop a sound that would resonate in the minds of hip-hop fans for generations. It made Snoop an icon.”
Snoop has since sold over 23 million albums in the United States and 35 million albums worldwide.

Being mad at a trans person for changing their name/style literally anything to stay safe in this very very confusing and hateful time is like you being upset that Chappell Roan didn't go to clown college. It's like being upset that Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr.'s name isn't actually Snoop Dogg. It's like being upset that it's not actually butter. You need to remember where you are. You need to remember the death rate. You need to remember people disown. You need to remember people rape and murder. You need to remember the entire fucking struggle of trans and queer people. It's never the fucking same. And it should all be looked at through their own personal lens. You need to remember you're not another person, you're not in their shoes, youre not living their lives. You're not aware of every fucking thing that's happened to them. And they don't need to tell you just because you need validation that they struggled so you can accept how they handle it. You give them space, you let them figure it out. You tell them you'll love them anyway. Or you shut the fuck up. No one's struggle is better or worse than another's. No one's struggle is valid to minimize. No "it could be worse" no "it's better than it was you need to be brave" no "you need to get over it." I promise you, someone needs to get over it and it's not them.
