Snoop Dogg, a prominent figure in the world of hip-hop, found himself deeply involved in one of the darkest periods in the history of the genre – the “East/West” beef that eventually led to the tragic deaths of legendary rappers Biggie Smalls and Tupac Shakur. During this time, Snoop’s association with Death Row Records became increasingly toxic, while the rival Bad Boy Records was accused of throwing fuel on the fire.
Despite the turmoil and violence that surrounded him, Snoop eventually distanced himself from the conflict, especially when Tupac became increasingly aggressive and confrontational. However, in a recent interview with Big Boy for the show “Untold Stories,” Snoop made some surprising comments about his relationship with Biggie and others during this period.
During the interview, Snoop recounted a conversation he had with Tupac in which he expressed a desire to collaborate with Biggie and his team on some music. However, this suggestion did not sit well with Tupac, who saw Biggie and his associates as enemies. Snoop recalls Tupac’s response: “I like them n###as (Puffy and Biggie), I wanna do some music with ’em. And that just rubbed cuz (Tupac) the wrong way, like, ‘N###a, f### them n###as, them n###as tried to kill me. N###as shot at you, and you talking about you wanna do a song with them n###as?’”
Snoop’s comments have raised eyebrows among fans and analysts, as they appear to contradict his earlier statements about his involvement in the East/West feud. While it is clear that Snoop was at the center of this conflict, his relationship with Biggie and others remains a subject of debate and speculation. Nevertheless, Snoop’s willingness to discuss these events openly and honestly is a testament to his enduring influence and importance in the world of hip-hop.
