Ten years on, Snoop Dogg spills his guts to AllHipHop.com about his relationship with Tupac during the Death Row days.

“We met at the Poetic Justice wrap party and we was freestyling that night. That’s the first time we actually met each other. We was freestyling, and he rolled a blunt. I wasn’t even smoking blunts. I was smoking zig-zags. We went to the store together and we got cool. Then we started hanging out goin to each other’s house. He’d invite the hoes over. I’d invite the hoes over. It was just on some homie love s**t. Then once he got cracked and went to jail, I put the word to Suge that we needed to put him on the team. So Suge went to visit him about putting him down and you know it was like, rescue. He felt like we rescued him. I gave him all of my s**t. I gave him my cousin Daz. Daz lace him with all the hot beats. Dre lace him with all the hot s**t. “Whatever’s mines is yours.”

“To me, it always felt like he always knew. I remember this one time when me and him talked and he was tellin me about this movie and he was like, “I got this movie, dog, where you gonna die and you gonna come back and be the spirit.” The s**t he used to think about the way he used to rap and s**t like, “If I Die Tonight” and s**t like that. I know I did “Murder Was the Case” and I was like, “I ain’t doin no more songs like that!” This mothaf**er was always making songs like that and I was like, “God damn, let’s make a party song or something!”
