Snoop Dogg Responds to Warren G Saying He Feels Snubbed: ‘Me & Him Understand Each Other’

Snoop Dogg has responded to the comments Warren G made on the Ugly Monkey podcast April 29, during which the “Regulate” rapper said he would like Snoop and his stepbrother Dr. Dre to hit him up more often.

“Snoop and Dre get down and they doing things,” he said at the time. “And it’s no diss to neither one of them or anything like that, but it’s like, y’all could call Warren to come do a cameo or come hang out or something. I don’t want no money or nothing from nobody, just call me to be around.”

Warren also mentioned not being able to get backstage during Dr. Dre‘s headlining Super Bowl LVI halftime performance in L.A.

Snoop and Warren go way back to their neighborhood in Long Beach, Calif., where they started the rap group 213 with the late Nate Dogg. Warren was also the one to introduce Snoop to his mentor Dr. Dre during the early ’90s.

So when Charlamagne Tha God of The Breakfast Club asked the Doggfather what Warren G means to him, the rapper answered, “Warren G is probably the best friend that I got that only me and him understand each other. Like, the passion Warren G has for me and had for me as an artist in the beginning is like Don King — like a promoter that promotes a fighter, like believing in Snoop before anybody else.”

Snoop then added that their friendship has been able to grow and evolve as they’ve gotten older and have become parents. “When he lost his mom, I didn’t understand, but I was there for him,” he said. “Then when I lost my mom, I didn’t understand and he was there for me. There’s been certain situations where we have become super close behind tragedy and behind love.”

However, he believes the two friends never fully addressed how their respective careers have turned out. “The music industry is trifling, it’s crazy,” Snoop continued. “You think about how he brought me to Death Row, but Death Row didn’t sign him, so there’s a lot of animosity and frustration and anger in him off of that. Not at me, but at the situation at whole.”

Added Snoop, “As an artist, if you’re pushing for me, you want for me to do this. But as an artist, I’m feeling f–ked up because they left my homeboy. These are things that we’ve never had a chance to fully get a understanding on because its pain.”
