Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre went on Drink Champs to promote their upcoming album, Missionary. They talked about their friendship and legacy as a duo. They also, of course, talked about Kendrick Lamar.
The whole thing stemmed from the fact that Lamar was chosen to headline the Super Bowl Halftime Show in Wayne’s hometown of New Orleans. Lil Wayne has expressed his disappointment with the decision, but Snoop Dogg believes he’s being too sensitive.
“This is a big event,” Snoop Dogg asserted. “You should just be honored that hip hop is being able to be seen on that platform, for all of us, and not hate on the next man, but be happy.” Snoop, who performed alongside Dre (and Lamar) at the 2022 Super Bowl, was confused by Lil Wayne’s sense of entitlement. He didn’t believe any artist should be “guaranteed” a spot, regardless of where the Halftime Show is set. “I didn’t feel like I was supposed to be there or in demand to be there,” he said about his Halftime appearance. “People look at everything when they pick the person to perform.”
Snoop Dogg did not reference Lil Wayne by name.
