West Coast rapper Snoop Dogg isn’t here to pick sides but he’s giving major props to rap rookie Bhad Bhabie. The hip-hop veteran has reacted to BB clashing with fellow hip-hop artist Iggy Azalea at a Fashion Nova nightclub event.

In a new interview, Snoop saluted Bhad for flexing a little gangster antic on her Australian rap rival.

“Bhad Bhabie gangsta. That was real white. That was quite white. [Iggy] sounded real buster ‘ish. Bhad Bhabie gets a point”

Yesterday, both BB and Iggy addressed the headline-generating altercation.

According to reports, Bhad struck first by throwing a drink on Iggy.

After E! News’ Erin Lim interviewed both rappers separately on the red carpet at Cardi B’s Fashion Nova launch party at Boulevard3 in Hollywood Wednesday, Bhad Bhabie (real name: Danielle Bregoli) threw a drink on the “Black Widow” rapper inside the venue. In a series of Instagram Story updates later that night, Bregoli defended her actions. “Bye broke bich,” the “These Heaux” rapper wrote. “Bye hoe. Glad u left wit a bag cuz u certainly ain’t making no money from music anymore. It’s simple. Don’t talk all sorts of s–t on the internet n come up to me like u my friend. Some of these hoes like u fake n 2 faced as f–k vbut I’m NOT that bich.” (E! Online)

Recently, Bhabie tried to clown Iggy after she had a publicized tour cancelled.

The run-in comes after Bhad Bhabie, real name Danielle Bregoli, recently took a jab at Iggy after her tour was cancelled, which was a response to Iggy shading her on Instagram. Iggy later filmed herself driving home from the event with some savage words for Bregoli. “I get that this little girl has made a name for herself acting a damn fool on television and online,” she began.

Today In Hip Hop History: Dr. Dre Released His Sophomore Solo Album ‘The Chronic 2001’ 19 Years Ago

Leave a comment

On this day in 1999, legendary super-producer Dr. Dre put out Chronic 2001, his last album before a 16 year hiatus. Containing some of the most known tracks in rap, Chronic 2001 has been extremely successful over the years. As of July 2013 the album has been certified septuple platinum, selling 7,664,000 copies in the United States alone and with the recent success of the film Straight Outta Compton, one can only imagine the increase in its sales that is to come. Dr. Dre is an artist known for the breaks he takes between albums. Chronic 2001, the follow up to The Chronic, came seven years after its predecessor and although it may have been an excruciating period of time to wait, each project he’s delivered has been more than worth the time spent wondering what it would consist of.

The quality of work that makes up Chronic 2001 is epic. Of course, the production of this album is more solid than most coming from Dre himself along with Mel-Man and Lord Finesse, but he vocal features that were at Dre’s disposal due to his success at the time also helped to make this project such a classic. Rappers such as The D.O.C., Hittman, Snoop Dogg, Kurupt, Xzibit, Nate Dogg and Eminem made appearances on this album. It would be an understatement to say that this project was an influential part of west coast rap and culture.

As previously stated, this album was widely regarded and critically acclaimed. It debuted in 1999 at #2 on the Billboard 200 chart where it peaked and sold 516,000 copies in its first week. The album also claimed the #1 spot on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip Hop Albums chart, #4 on the UK Album Chart, and #17 in the Dutch Albums Chart. As far as its legacy, the album has made its appearances on music charts worldwide since its release and is #17 on the Billboard 200 chart for the 2000s. Its hit single “Still D.R.E.”, is certified quadruple platinum by the RIAA and is a household name in the Hip Hop world.

Dr. Dre’s successes following this album are enough to make a second movie about. His influence on rap and rap culture span a generation and his place in pop culture as a whole has been cemented due to what he has accomplished. We can only sit back and watch what the mastermind that is Dr. Dre has in store for us in the coming years.

Snoop Dogg Responds To Donald Trump’s Firefires Tweet:

Snoop Dogg

West Coast rapper Snoop Dogg isn’t here for President Donald Trump‘s savagery. The hip-hop veteran has shared his thoughts on the head of state immediately placing blame following last week’s California wildfires starting up.

In a new interview, Snoop Dizzle didn’t hold back on his personal issues with Trump.

“This man is just completely wrong. His whole train of thought. Even when the fires happened he blamed [the forest management]. How you not gonna send a condolence out to the people who died? You just gonna go straight into blame? I’m like, I want to slap the – I’m not gonna say it.” (Real 92.3)

A few days ago, the Trumpeter hit up Twitter with his opinion on the forest fires.

This week, reality TV star Kim Kardashian revealed her husband Kanye West reached out to Trump following his insensitive wildfires tweet.

“When he doesn’t agree with something like that fire comment he will screengrab [and] he will send it to the people close to [Trump] and say that maybe there should be a little more empathy in this,” Kardashian West said before her panel with CNN’s Van Jones at Variety and Rolling Stone’s Criminal Justice Reform Summit at the Jeremy West Hollywood hotel. (Variety)

Kim also revealed what last-minute things she grabbed before evacuating their home.

Kardashian West told Variety that with just an hour to evacuate, they grabbed their computers and a hard drive containing digital files of their photo albums and videos as well as “my kids’ blankets, my childhood blanket that my grandma made me, things that you can’t really replace.” “All the other stuff doesn’t really matter,” she added. While evacuation orders have slowly been lifted, Kardashian West said they haven’t returned home just yet. “It’s smoky and my son has a little bit of asthma so it’s not really safe for him to go back,” she explained.

Snoop Doggy Dogg To Finally Be Honored On The Hollywood Walk of Fame

Leave a comment

After more than two decades of captivating fans around the world with music and visual entertainment, Snoop Doggy Dogg is finally going to receive his very own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

According to Variety the Doggfather has been chosen to have his name etched on the famed sidewalk in Hollywood and will be bestowed with the honor on November 19 of this year.

Could his act of defiance of smoking weed next to the White House in protest of Donald Trump have swayed the powers that be to give him one of pop culture’s highest honors? Maybe. What we do know is that this is long overdue given his illustrious history in Hip-Hop, movies, and TV.

“Snoop Dogg is one of those people who can do anything. He raps, he acts, he hosts a television show, he cooks, and helps community kids with his philanthropic work,” said Ana Martinez, producer of the Hollywood Walk of Fame. “He is a man of the ages and we welcome him to our Hollywood Walk of Fame.”

Thus explains why Snoop will be getting the 2651st star on Hollywood Boulevard and as luck would have it the star will lay right in front of Jimmy Kimmel Live! Needless to say Jimmy Kimmel will be there to help Snoop receive the honor that many celebrities dream of.

It’s great to see that Hollywood is finally recognizing Hip-Hop icons such as Snoop, Ice Cube and Cypress Hill. Heck, even Pitbull got a star on the Walk of Fame before Snoop and that fool doesn’t even have a classic Hip-Hop album to his name (no shots taken). Congrats, Uncle Snoop.

96

A post shared by snoopdogg (@snoopdogg) on

A few days ago, buzz developed about Pac’s high school love letters going up for auction.

They’re addressed to Averel, who at the time was the same age. The first letter reveals a shy Tupac introducing himself to Averel. Tupac surfaces in the second one as emboldened … professing his wants and needs, if ya catch our drift. We’re told Averel, who sold the letters to Moments in Time, was not impressed by Tupac’s game. (TMZ)

Recently, various items from Pac’s life were donated to Temple University.

The rapper’s items will be on display at the school’s main campus at the Charles L. Blockson Afro-American Collection. The collection consists of roughly 500,000 items detailing “the global black experience.” “For a hip-hop head, this is truly a dream come true,” said Aaron Smith, a professor of Africology and African American Studies who teaches a Shakur-focused class at Temple. About a dozen items that belonged to Shakur were donated to the collection by Runnemede, New Jersey-based Goldin Auctions. (USA Today)

In October, boxing icon Mike Tyson shared a rare pic of himself alongside Pac.

Snoop Dogg Delivers Perfect Pitch For His Own Big Screen Biopic

Leave a comment

Snoop Dogg Video

West Coast rapper Snoop Dogg can see his life on the big screen. The hip-hop veteran has imagined what it would look like to bring his life story to a much-needed biopic.

In a new interview, Snoop Dizzle reveals his ideal biopic would focus on multiple decades rather than his rap game come-up.

“I’m thinking more along the lines of, when you watch great shows like ‘Narcos’ on Netflix, you see how ‘Narcos’ went from Escobar to the Cali Cartel to now it’s about to go to Mexico. I’m thinking like a Snoop Dogg biopic. Late 60’s with my mother and father. Pops was in Vietnam. 70’s, when I was born in ’71 and in the hippie era growing up. 80’s, football, selling candy, uh oh, cocaine, selling drugs. Gang banging. 90’s, rap. 2000’s. You know what I’m saying? But you see what I’m saying? To me, that’s more enticing than a two-hour Snoop Dogg movie.” (Majic 102.3)

Dogg also admitted he has a couple major Hollywood stars attached to his potential biopic.

“I already got with somebody. I don’t want to expose the names like that but I got some big wigs connected to it – you want me to tell you the names? In conjunction with Lee Daniels and Ryan Coogler. Yes. That’s what we doing. That’s what we’re thinking.” (Majic 102.3)

Recently, Snoop appeared on rapper Jay Rock‘s “WIN” remix.

Snoop Dogg Teases Biopic, Drops Lee Daniels & Ryan Coogler As Potential Collaborators

Celebrities Visit SiriusXM - September 17, 2018

Snoop Dogg has been on the scene for nearly three decades and manages to remain a viable part of Hip-Hop and pop culture in ways few probably could have envisioned by in the early ’90’s. In a recent interview while in Washington, D.C., the D-O-Double-G expressed an interest in having a biopic of his life created while dropping a pair of names potentially connected to the project.

Page Six reports:

“I already got with somebody. I don’t even want to expose the names like that but I got some big wigs connected to it, some wigs. It’s like some wiggathons. If I said these names, I mean these are some real wiggathons,” he said before going on to name drop two Hollywood heavyweights. “So you want me to tell you their names? In conjunction with Lee Daniels and Ryan Coogler.”

Snoop, whose career stretches back to the early ’90s heyday of gangster rap, has grand plans for the project too, saying he envisions it as an epic.

“Late ‘60s with my mother and father,” he said. “Pops in Vietnam. ‘70s, when I was born in ’71, the hippie era, growing up. ‘80s, football, selling candy — uh oh! — cocaine, selling drugs, gang banging. ‘90s – unh! — rap.”

There isn’t an official announcement of the development of the project just yet, but it seems that Snoop is ready to go all if so.
