Things have turned sour recently between icons Eminem and Snoop Dogg as as Eminem had some words for the Doggfather in his song “Zeus” which was a response to Snoop’s Breakfast Club interview that excluded Em from his Top 10 list of rappers. Kxng Crooked, longtime friend and collaborator to both rappers was asked about the situation and he gave his thoughts. Naturally, Crooked would wish that bother artists could talk and work it out. Crook also fears the divide between fans is going to turn racial. Let’s hope the Doctor can dead the beef. Video comes courtesy of the ePRO Team YouTube channel.

West Coast producer ProHoeZak has followed up on his Instagram page to explain the story behind the funky beat he put together for the west coast supergroup of Too Short, Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, E-40 to bust to.
“See, I was in the Mothership with uncle George [Clinton], and we was flying over Atlantis. I looked in the water and saw that Snoop, E-40, Ice Cube, and Too Short was trying to raise Atlantis to the roof! But they was having problems, they had the player haters calling them old heads and shit. That’s some Sir Noses! We got to get rid of him, I saw that he was in the way. So I said, ‘Uncle George, pass me the bop gun.’ He put it in my hand, I cocked that sucker back, shot them with the Flashlight, and that nigga caught the rhythm of the stroke! And then I blessed them with one of these, cat daddy..”
