Ep.20 - Snoop Dogg
On Ep.20 of DITD: Snoop is a Hip-Hop legend, respected by everybody in music, but how did he manage to become one of the most recognisable figures in the culture?
FULL SHOW NOTES & TIMESTAMPS - https://share.transistor.fm/s/588da4e1
The DITD duo continues their "Retrospective" series with one of the most visible figures in Hip-Hop history. Snoop Dogg.
There's plenty of ways to hail Snoop Dogg, from his music to his cultural ubiquity, to his business acumen, to his activism. Ben & Charlie cover all of these (In a "We are not worthy" fashion) and more as they figure out why Hip-Hop fans don't rate him as heavy in today's landscape. Is it because he's constantly evolved his persona? Is it because of his diverse portfolio?
All of that & some words on his latest release "I Wanna Thank Me". With one of one statistics & an oxymoronic "Lighter Note", both from Ben. Enjoy.
