Snoop Dogg said that Master P kept him out of trouble and helped him become hugely famous

Master P is using Snoop Dogg as a prime example of personal evolution during challenging times. The longstanding friendship between the hip-hop mogul and Snoop, forged in the 1990s when Master P and his No Limit Records crew dominated the Southern rap scene and Snoop reigned supreme in the West Coast rap movement, has stood the test of time.

In a pivotal moment, Snoop faced career and personal jeopardy due to conflicts with his label, Deаth Row Records, and its frontman, Suge Knight. Driven by a beef that led him to create a diss album titled “F—k Deаth Row,” Snoop found his career at a crossroads. However, Master P played a crucial role in redirecting the course of Snoop’s life.

Snoop shared on “The Pivot” podcast that Master P recognized the dаnger and wisely steered him away from a potentially disastrоus path. Snoop expressed gratitude, acknowledging that he needed Master P as a big brother and mentor to extract him from a detrimental environment, guiding him to the South and exposing him to a different world.

Deаth Row Records, founded in 1992 by Suge Knight, Dr. Dre, the D.O.C., and Ԁick Griffey, initially thrived with artists like Dre, Tupac Shakur, Nate Dogg, Warren G, and the D.O.C.

Snoop joined in 1993, contributing to iconic albums like “The Chronic,” “Doggystyle,” and “All Eyez on Me.” However, the label’s success was overshadowed by viоlence, legal issues surrounding Knight, and Tupac’s deаth.

Master P’s intervention provided Snoop with an exit from a lifestyle he was accustomed to, enabling him to reconnect with his roots and spend time with family. Snoop acknowledged the importance of learning to separate from his past associates, realizing that they were more of a hindrance than a support system.

In his Instagram caption, Master P commended Snoop for his openness to change and growth, emphasizing the need to think beyond emotions. The post received positive reactions from fans, acknowledging Master P’s pivotal role in nurturing talent and steering Snoop toward success.

Snoop’s subsequent acquisition of Deаth Row Records last February marked a full-circle moment. He expressed excitement about owning the label that played a crucial role in his early career, aiming to build its next chapter. Snoop’s plans for a music streaming app named after the iconic label showcase his commitment to preserving its legacy, reflecting the ongoing evolution and success of an artist who embraced change.
