Eminem and Snoop Dogg had a misunderstanding last year when the D-O-Double-G excluded his fellow Dr. Dre protégé from this Top 10 greatest rappers of all time list.
Eminem returned fire with a lightweight jab on the Music To Be Murdered By: Side B cut “Zeus” when he rapped, “As far as squashing beef I’m used to people knocking me/But just not in my camp/And diplomatic as I’m tryin’ to be/Last thing I need is Snoop doggin’ me/Man, Dogg, you was like a damn god to me/Meh, not really (haha)/I had dog backwards.”
In December 2020, Eminem explained why Snoop Dogg’s comments bothered him so much.
“Everything he said, by the way, was fine, up to a point,” Em explained around the 30-minute mark. “Him saying I’m not in his Top 10 because there are some rappers in the ’90s I can’t fuck with…A: Him saying Dre made the best version of me, absolutely, why would I have a problem with that? Would I be here without Dre? Fuck no, I wouldn’t. The rappers he mentioned from the ‘90s — KRS One, Big Daddy Kane, [Kool] G Rap — I’ve never said I could fuck with them. I never said that.”
He continued, “I think it was more about the tone he was using that caught me off-guard ’cause I’m like, where is this coming from? I just saw you, what the fuck? It threw me for a loop. Again, I probably could’ve gotten past the whole tone and everything, but it was the last statement where he said, ‘Far as music I can live without, I can live without that shit.’ Now you’re being disrespectful. It just caught me off-guard. I wasn’t ready for that.”
But Eminem and Snoop Dogg’s momentary rift is firmly in the rearview. Over the weekend, Snoop took over Shade 45 where he spoke with his Mt. Westmore partner Too $hort and hinted there was a Shady collaboration on the way.
“Everybody’s solo song was the last verse of the song before that, except the one with me and Eminem,” he explained. “Because I felt like that was like a big reveal. When n-ggas hear that Eminem on that mothafucka, that’s just a whole other level.”
DJ Whoo Kid shared the clip to his Twitter page and appeared to confirm the collab with, “That new @snoopdogg and @eminem is coming soon.”
Eminem and Snoop Dogg will make Hip Hop history when they team up with Dr. Dre, Kendrick Lamar and Mary J. Blige for the Super Bowl LVI Pepsi halftime show on February 13, 2022.
As the NFL’s “live music entertainment strategist,” JAY-Z and Roc Nation serve as consultants on productions such as the Super Bowl halftime show and had an integral role in booking the event.
“The opportunity to perform at the Super Bowl Halftime show, and to do it in my own backyard, will be one of the biggest thrills of my career,” Dr. Dre said in a statement sent to HipHopDX. “I’m grateful to JAY-Z, Roc Nation, the NFL, and Pepsi as well as Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J. Blige and Kendrick Lamar for joining me in what will be an unforgettable cultural moment.”
JAY-Z added, “This is the Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime Show. This is history in the making.”
does anyone really want to hear an Eminem and Snoop track at this point?
Asking the real questions.
Why not? Let just watch how the plane fly and crashes, it may be good or it may be lame but I’m here for the fun of it
Bitch please. You must have a mental disease.
Sometimes Eminem is too nice.
Snoop hasn’t been able to sell any records for well over a decade now.
All these haters and even racists always trying to attack Eminem despite heavily contributing to the culture and always giving props to the MCs that came before him since the beginning.
That kinda negativity coming from someone he rubs shoulders with is inexcusable and we all know Snoop wouldn’t be f’ng with Em now except now there is something in it for him.
I dont hate em, but you have to admit, his subject matter is terrible. He raps about having sex with his mom and dad.
Missing the point. Uh no one understands the message in the content. Do ya think Em having sex with his parents. Abusive parents cause so much damage they deserve to get read. I don’t care if Benz smack’s up my mom either. I say it but uh idk if I’d want it to happen. Hmm. Point black junkies and ppl can’t handle their responsibility parenting should burn in hell. I’m sure I’ll see my mom there. I’m the princess running the place. Think he going to do what he says then your not smart enough to hear his music. Try some critical thinking.
Mhmm
I’m never gonna get over that little sad insta live. Snoop got issues fr fr. Em knows. He pretty perceptive. The Cripts coming. Uhh. Lip sink on insta live like he Mariah. Em other haters than goes out her way to put his name in her mouth. Gotta hand it to them, clout chasing works. Try to get attention for actually making good art guys, that would be appreciated. Em does. He is always too nice. Ppl are either givers or takers. I’m doing better with that. Good for Em he took the high road. He should have read him like a warning lable.
Snoop Jealous of Em and its not even close. Jealousy will have you saying Jordan weak. That shit will have you calling fine bitches ugly.
Stop it he sells that much because his color by far not the goat but em is good.
Fact is em being white and being the “RAP GOD” That he is yeah I could see it bothering snoop a loop
@Jp Grady
