- Snoop Dogg has taken issues with some of Suge Knight’s recent comments
- The pair have had a tense relationship for years
- Snoop labels Knight a “rat” among other things in the new track
Death, taxes, Snoop Dogg and Suge Knight beefing.
The two former Death Row label mates have endured a tense relationship over the years. And if Snoop’s latest release is anything to go by, that won’t be changing any time soon.
Snoop’s recently released album, Iz It A Crime?, which was dropped by surprise yesterday (May 15), contains a diss track aimed at Knight entitled ShutYoB***hA**up. A subtle title, I’m sure you’ll all agree.
Snoop Dogg Threatens Suge Knight
In the track, which also features Stresmatic, Snoop calls Knight a “rat” and also threatens to “slap the taste out [his] muthaf***in’ mouth.”
At the beginning of the diss track, Snoop raps, “I can see why you mad/I bought everything you own/Now you in PC snitching on the phone.“
Snoop continues, “But I can slap the taste out your muthaf***in’ mouth/Pull up on your n***a, make you wanna reroute/And if he hit the main line, he gon’ see what we bout/Oh b***h-a** n***a, I’m a rich-a** n***a.“
Lot of * to use there, wasn’t it? Snoop’s latest outburst against Knight comes after the Death Row co-founder and former CEO called into The Art of Dialogue back in March to dispute Snoop’s ownership of Death Row.
“Snoop, you said I’m mad because you bought Death Row. What you buy? Shut me up. Show me where y’all paid the money to buy it,” Knight said back in March. “Show me the paperwork—show me what you own.”
“We Should Be Trying To Figure Out How To Make Hip Hop Better”
“You trying to create something that Suge Knight created but instead of making something big you disappointed the world by making everything flops. When I put out Tha Dogg Pound, they sold records. You put out Tha Dogg Pound, they sold nothing—it flopped.
“You don’t got to talk tough. We don’t got to talk about each other—that gets [us] nowhere. One person or three or four people is not bigger than hip-hop. We should be trying to figure out how to make hip-hop better. Everybody destroying hip-hop; you guys are making it worse.”
“If you have Death Row, you destroyed it. You messed up the name.”
So just expect this one to blow over in a few weeks without any further drama then, yeah? That’s how these things usually work, right?
