Despite Snoop Dogg’s best efforts to keep it under wraps, the West Coast rap O.G. let some interesting news slip out during a recent interview with a Washington D.C. radio station.
During a conversation with 102.3 FM host Vic Jagger, the inimitable Doggfather revealed a biopic based on his life was imminent. He already had an idea of what the film would look like.
“I’m thinking more along the lines of when you watch great shows like Narcos on Netflix,” he said. “You know, how like Narcos went from Escobar to Cali cartel, now it’s about to go to Mexico. I’m thinking like a Snoop Dogg biopic.”
Snoop then confessed Lee Daniels and Black Panther director Ryan Coolger were on board to help Snoop’s biopic come to life.
“I already got with somebody. I don’t even want to expose the names like that but I got some big wigs connected to it, some wigs. It’s like some wiggathons. If I said these names, I mean these are some real wiggathons. So you want me to tell you their names? In conjunction with Lee Daniels and Ryan Coogler.”
Snoop has been portrayed in several films, including the Biggie movie Notorious and Tupac’s biopic All Eyez On Me.
This would mark the first film entirely dedicated to Snoop’s life.
Don’t fool the world like that bullshit Straight Outta Compton movie…and technically this ain’t the first biopic on Snoop’s life. MURDER WAS THE CASE done come out 24 years ago.
Will the movie start from his southern Roots ? Snoop Dog is in my 10 top greatest Rappers not just because all have did and still doing for the Hip Hop Culture Snoop be putting you up on game ” The Game Is To Be Sold Not Told ” Song of the Day Snoop Dogg ( Tru Lies )
As a hip hop/rap fan I’m not interested in a snoop bio pic, he’s basically lived his life in the public eye since he was like 19-20 it’s not much we don’t know about him that hasn’t been hip hop news. Plus rappers have a tough time telling the full truth in their bio pics, is he going to show the time him and dre ran from suge at the source awards, trae deee stayed didn’t run and beat up some of the bloods that were with suge? A movie about snoop just wouldn’t be interested imo. Now one about Wu tang, fo sho, one about Bone Thugs fo sho, one about Master P yes, I would even rather see one about Cash money records come up, J prince building Rap a lot, Eazy E before ruthless, about his days in the streets and starting ruthless records with 200k drug money, the early days of hip hop on the East Coast. Snoop has been a disappointment to me one day he is like F kayne and the prez and then next day he dropping a gospel album I can’t respect that at all.
This probably gonna be like Dre in Compton movie. Gonna make himself look alot more gangsta than he really is. Snoop in the movie prolly a hardcore gangsta who did drive-bys and drug lord who spent like 4 years in the pen. In reality it was more like 4 months youth authority.
