Snoop Keeps It … Snoop
“Normally, I don’t make records for the ladies because I like being real derogatory towards the women”
In what is possibly the best interview I’ve read in months, Snoop has told MTV about his forthcoming album Tha Blue Carpet Treatment. Among the golden quotes from Snoop;
On the conception of the album title:
“I went to an awards ceremony and they was like, ‘Snoop, we want you on the red carpet’ and I was like, ‘I’m tired of walking on the damn red carpet. I want to walk on some blue carpet.’ And it just came to me.”
On working with Dr. Dre in 2006:
“He don’t just let me go in there and freestyle anymore. I can’t knock him, but shit. I remember when I used to come in here and just la la la la boom bam and just do it.”
On his studio, Crippin Kitchen
“That’s where we be cooking that gangsta music,”
On getting older and working with young R&B star Ne-Yo
“I went and got one of the specialists at making songs for the ladies, ’cause I’m kind of, like, lackin’ on my mackin’.”
I saved the best for last though. Here he is talkin about the song he did with Ne-Yo:
“Normally, I don’t make records for the ladies because I like being real derogatory towards the women”
Best fuckin quote EVER
[...] still in love with the cover, which largely resembles his last LP cover, and his reasons for calling it Tha Blue Carpet [...]
