Snoop Dogg shredded online as he admits he 'wants to give a shout-out' to Drake and Kendrick Lamar
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Snoop Dogg has shared his thoughts on Drake and Kendrick Lamar’s ongoing rap feud.
The ‘Drop It Like It’s Hot’ rapper star was promoting his upcoming flick ‘The Garfield Movie’ when he told the ET, “Well, the only thing I want to say about that whole scenario is that I want to give both of them a shout-out for raising the bar as far as lyrics, as far as song making and writing because the writing has been upped since the confrontation.”
The 52-year-old added, “Those are my nephews. I’m not in the middle of it. I support both of them and that’s personal business, not my business.”
Dogg further reflected on the ‘rap game’ as he said, “As far as what they did for the industry and the rap game, they made you rap again. You can’t mumble your way and gimmick your way to a song no more, buddy. So thank y’all.”
