Why is Snoop Dogg famous?

[HHJ]

Im not a big fan of his music,or west coast rap in general...but he's got alot of charisma,and laid back charm. He seems like a cool dude to hang out with. So people involve him in shit. He can turn up anywhere. Thats pretty cool imo.

Warren G as well and another Dogg, look at how long Nate Dogg stayed relevant till his death.

People love rappers with smooth consistent deliveries, as much as spitters.

Exactly. Doggystyle is a better album than anything Canibus has done, even if he can't match him bar for bar.

He got with a prime Dre and made a classic. His murder charge helped his career.

If there's ever something funny about being wanted for a murder charge, it's that Snoop evaded police warrants for his arrest so he could be on the MTV awards and turned himself in afterwards. And in all fairness to Snoop, he was only driving at the time of the incident. His bodyguard was the shooter. He was just charged for being in the car when it happened.

Yeah, but the point is garth made fun of snoops name and wayne mentioned the murder charge. Snoop went viral.

Snoop helped Dre almost as much as Dre helped Snoop. Snoop wrote a lot of lyrics for him and helped to give him street cred.

This is true, but Snoop was at his best during Doggystyle with Dre producing and coming up with his beats.

Definitely. They made a good double act.

Only asterisk against Dre's name is that we don;t know how long he's had others making beats for him. I'd like to hope it wasn't from back then.
