Snoop's mugshot circa 1993, annnnnnd...

...Snoop's mugshot circa 2006 (1 of 3... collect 'em all!).
Look who's all grown up!
For those who don’t know, Snoop was arrested for the -- count em’ up -- THIRD time in three months, again with weed and a gun, but this time he upped the ante and added some yayo for good measure. He’s still awaiting trial on two other cases, and apparently, big Snoop decided it would be a good idea to leave the Jay Leno show in Burbank riding dirty with all the elements of a crunk ass afterparty (although he was noticeably missing an oversized bottle of Belvedere) in his stashbox, ‘cause that’s what intelligent guys do when they’re “laying low.”
I guess the first two times it was sort of funny in a “Oh, that crazy Snoop Dogg! He’s up to his old antics again...” kind of way. But when I heard the news this morning on the radio while driving to work, all I could do was shake my head slowly. I would’ve hung my head in shame, but you know... it’s hard to drive when you’re doing that.
For the record, I’m aware that rappers -- much like Charles Barkley -- aren’t role models. But at what point does a 35-year-old man start acting his age? It’s one thing if you’re a penniless 16-year-old rolling around with nothing to lose on some “fuck the world” shit, but when you’re a successful entertainer, father, husband and Pee Wee football coach, you need to step your game up a little. I can't for the life of me begin to fathom why someone with so much to lose would put their livelihood, and the livelihood of their family on the line for such dumb shit. Especially when it’s obvious that Johnny Law is keeping pretty close tabs on you. Grow the fuck up and take care of your family.
Things were still looking good before all of this, despite the upcoming trials on his first two dumbass arrests; he released his best album since Doggystyle, and he just announced the “How The West Was Won” tour in early 2007 with The Game
On a related note, the numbers for the first week sales of Blue Carpet Treatment, and while they’re not spectacular, they’re decent. First week sales hit at around 275,000, coming in fifth after Jiggaman, a country star, a compilation of the year’s shittiest pop hits, and a record from a British group comprised of two dead guys, a 60-something-year-old man who beat his one-legged wife, and the former host of Shining Times Station.
Good luck promoting the album from jail, son.
Comments
He is not going to beat 3 weapons charges as a felon. He's looking at at least a year in club fed.
Snoop Dogg needs to quit acting like he's a real gangsta, don't he know that real gangstas are either dead or in jail!
sometimes i see this shit like 'thats how the streets is' shit happens', and sometimes i think, why does niggas always catch cases when albums is droppin. sum niggas do sum wack shit around album time 2 get arrested and to make emselves look hard. havin said that, when u waitin on 2 other charges, u cant b gettin arrested for that shit on purpose. a heater? and yayo?? nigga u stupid, and u damn near 40 years old, thats just embarassing, i dont giv a fuck what ya'll say about keeping it gangsta. he n dmx is in sum 'ignant' rapper of the year competition. i could just about make allowances for the heater, cos maybe he felt he needed it, who knows, but the yay and the weed too? shit!! he either think he above the law or too reckless to give a fuck. it depends on if the heater was loaded n how much yay they got.
consequences nigga. consequences
"a compilation of the year’s shittiest pop hits"
yeah 50 and Eminem all over that shit probably, pop ass niggas
Snoop your one stupid ass black man!!!...you & DMX should do a reality T.V. show about going back & forth to jail for called "DUMB RAP STARS" that like being locked up"...
damn snoop ya should've known tha laws was watchin ya.
rocmp3.com/hustlafidemusic
cant blame snoop well for the yayo but thats it i dont know anybody that leaves home without weed and protection its like a part of the wallet but sooner or later unless you got felonies you have to get a gun license step ya game up snoop
Another case of "keeping it real gone wrong".When you get money you get a bodyguard to hold guns. You can use them if you want, but when it hits the fan they registered to him.
Everybody Callin SNOOP this "G"..The GAME callin him the "BIG HOMIE"..Wut i remember was when he was gettin punked by SUGE and RAN to Master P for protection rollin in BULLET Proof Trucks...SUGE still get payed off him...On another note black ppl usually age well..This dude smoke so much weed ngga look like his uncle like he 45 or sumthin..And i knew a ngga couldn't be THAT SKINNY w/o some COKE involved..I can't stand watch'n BABY BOY w/ him in that wife beater...Just say no SNOOP
Suge just put some money on that boy head. He can't get caught slipping w/o a gun. Jail is probably the safest place for him.
lol.im sure this is what a good portion of today's hiphop audience want to hear;a 35(?)yr old man gettin bust 4 such juvenile charges.its hardcore,right?my bruva snoop keepin it real...its RIDICULOUS!AND i luv the dude.JAY Z, U are D GREATEST.Folks wont get it now...but someday u'll understand.good luck,snoop.LMAO
snoop should stop bullshiting us, he aint no tookie, if it was 50, y'all would say PUBLICITY STUNT what this is?
HOMEY - WE DO NOT NEED TO PUT MONEY ON NOBODY'S ON THE WEST - WE WILL GET AN 8 YEAR OLD TO RUN UP ON AT THE STOP LIGHT!!!
Easy on the slandering Pop music, fool. Hip hop is the one that's dead, not pop. Don't take it out on other people.
Dumb ass.
I can't stand watch'n BABY BOY w/ him in that wife beater...Just say no SNOOP

hehehe. You ain't never lied. My 2 year old got more body than this cat.
I think anyone who thinks this is a publicity stunt ain't from the streets. NO ONE GOES TO JAIL WILLINGLY. Not even the slave master industry execs could convince Snoop to put his freedom on the line for record sales. He is just plain stupid and a drug addict. I don't know about the coke because he never looks skeed to me, but he clearly has a weed problem.

I may get some hate for this one, but let's be for real. A few month's ago I watched the mtv special for snoop, I think they call it Ryhme and reason or something. I was looking at it and my girl say's " damn, why Snoop look so old"? so I stopped listen to the music and started paying attention to him and how he looked. I turned to her and the first thing out my mouth, " Snoop is on that shit". She was like hell no, but being formerly of the streets, my conclusion is sound. and now he get arrested again for the third time in 3 months, on what charges? posession of a weapon, weed and COCAINE. you say he should know better than to be getting in the trouble he is, but how can he, when he's out of control. did you see him on Wendy williams, last week? that aint no weed high. Snoop is my dude, but I got to say what it really look like. Plus you can't expect him to roll without heat right now anyway, he is likely to be shot at any moment now. I hope i am wrong but somehow I doubt it. I told someone last year that Fergie looked like she was on Crank, and what do you know, she admitted to being addicted to it in the past. peace to Snoop, keep your head above water, big homie.
peace!!!!
That beater snoop had on in baby boy was an extra smedium and he still couldn't fit it. But anyway, it is time for these rappers to grow up. Especially the ones who are 30+.
If Snoop beats the charges and doesn't get arrested for 5 years, I'll go out and buy all his albums.

I heared a while back that havoc produced a track for nas's new album, and 50 didnt appreciate it, and refuses to work with havoc.
and then i was watching mtv and they had EVERYBODY from shady and gunit, and havoc wasnt there - and 50 said they were working on prodigy's SOLO album.
but i never see havoc with them anymore. and i rather hear a havoc solo before another prodigy solo.
does anyone in here know the truth behind it? or is it just a rumor with a lot of coincidences? is 50 finished with havoc for real?
when r gay buck and stiff rod coming out anybody??????????
This is a disappointment. I know entertainments are human, but when you say that you coach kids and try to be a model, is this the example that they should follow? I cannot figure Snoop out. One time he is this humble dude that wants to be a good example for kids, the next he is in the headlines for bullshit. I don't want to hear about how the media blows it up either because the media isn't the ones acting a fool.
lets keep the gunit comments off the blog fellas...remember, they aren't relevant anymore. As for snoop, that's some bullshit. The studio in right near fairfax and 3rd st. That is a busy area with a lot of traffic and in sure he was out of the by the time rush hour started seeing as the show is taped in the afternoon. It's odd for him to get pulled over without any reason and all of a sudden they find this guys stash box. To me it sounds like the hip hop cops been after him. Snoop is a real G and I hope the big cuz stay out of jail.
all they said was that the gun and drugs were in the car. just cause snoop was in the car .. doesn't mean that was HIS shit.
He had cocaine and a gun. Like dude above said he can't beat three weapons charges. This is a game of watch what you say all that talk about fuck the govener, fuck the police, fuck the law, that's why they call them "one time" the police on the west coast. But he got caught three times. I love the brother and don't wish him no harm or jail time. Let this be a wake up call "All you don't need around you, You don't need around you.
Yo, on the real, Snoop gotta grow up or he's gonna find him self doing real time behind bars on some dumb shit. he needs to change his image and stop trying to a pimp/gangsta/crip.
The long and the short of it is that there really is a time when we as MEN, especially BLACK MEN, need to GROW THE FUCK UP. I gotta admit, I'm the same age as Snoop, and up until just a second ago, I was doing the same shit. Risking my freedom for dumb shit...rationalizing it by saying "I'm from the hood, this is all I know and I'm just keeping it real." Fortunately for me, before I got myself pulled over and caught up on the humble, I realized just how much I was FUCKING UP!!! I have a beautiful wife, a handsome son and GOD has blessed me with the opportunity to have a legitimate means of income so that I can support them...so why was I still throwing bricks and the penitentary? I really had to ask myself that. And when the answer I came back with was, "I don't even know." I woke up. We need to start QUESTIONING THE OBVIOUS yall so that we can be able to devise our own master plans, for ourselves, in an effort to avoid the ones that have been laid out for us. I, for one, love the hood just that much to make that change.
Yo the other night on BET I watched that American Gangsta on Tookie. I mean that nigga has done more to hurt our people then alot motherfuckas! However, they had all these dudes on there making him sound like a God. There was one cat on there who kept it gully and said he got what he deserved. I mean wake the fuck up, he aint hero he is a digrace to our people. That is the motherfuckin TRUTH! Who ever idolizes that cat is a fool too!
One
The thing is that ignorant people look at AZ, Alpo and those dudes as hero's. They had some real educated brother's speaking on Twookie! I saw the shots from his funeral Jessie Jackson and other respected brothers were there.I mean Snoop was crying. Twookie's legacy is still killing young brothers in the hood. FUCK HIM!
Twookie might have made peace with his maker, and I do believe in forgivness! I just say it's fucked up that people idolize that dude. They should have just let his big steriod ass rot in the pen. That gay dude was comical. He was pissed as a motherfucka!
I honestly felt bad for that grown ass man crip walking!
Snoop- The class on how to be ignorant will be taught by a whole bunch of other gang bangas.
The other grown ass man who was all over twookie made me sick!
One
its Tookie not Twookie
Y'all hatin' ass niggas convicting Snoop before the trial, acting worser than these crackers.Any other entertainer could go to the Jay Leno show and leave with all the drugs they got and chill, but the police waiting in the parking lot just to fuck with Snoop. That's some bullshit but if you never been in the streets and had the police harass you, I guess that's all good to you.
@west coast G
It's punk muthfucka who has set our people back about 50 years. "TOOKIE" is responsiable for thousands of our young people losing their lives. He represents evil! Sorry I just an educated borther from BK!!!
one
Its been proven that Snoop is Rollin' 20' Crips. He's been in jail. Sold drugs. Beat a murder. Ran with Deathrow in there heyday! R U fucking Wiggers on here kidding me?
Snoop IS A REAL O.G
Why are you White people so stupid? You really believe Gangsta Rap is just entertainment??? LMFAO
Man can't ya'll see what's happening? They trying to shut snoop down cause he hasn't comformed to the ways of this shytstem. These mother fuckas won't be satisfied til all blk men are on some wanna be white shit or in jail where they can tame yo monkey ass. Since when have ya'll known Snoop to be caught up with Yay? That's some bullshit & I wouldn't doubt if it was planted, so the shit would look worst than the prior arrest! I don't trust cops, the government or anyone affiliated with these self righteous fucks. They do more illeagal shit than the average man, but you never see these mofo's on the news being locked up. We gotta wake up blk ppl, especially us blk men. We're the target of the police, the government, and the rest of the hate squad that exist against us. Remember, Snoop is innocent until proven guilty & I think all but one case is bullshit! Keep The Music Alive & Stop Worrying About These Cats Lives Like It Effects Yours! 100
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN KEEPIN IT REAL, GOES WRONG.. NAH BUT FOREAL.. THIS SHIT IS BOUND TO HAPPEN.. NIGGAZ IS POSED TO KEEP SUM BURNERS AROUND.. SUM WEED AND BLOW TOO IF U LIKE TO GET HIGH. U GOTTA KEEP HEAT- CUZ NIGGAZ WILL RUN UR JEWELZ AND SUMMO SHIT - NIGGA BETTER BE READY.. NOW AS FAR A SNEAKIN PISTOLS THRU THE AIRPORT- ONLY A DUMMY WOULD PULL THAT ONE.. SHIP IT NEX DAY AIR, OR USE A LOCKBOX IF ITZ LEGAL AND REGISTERED - SNOOP CANT DO IT BUT A SUMBODY CAN??
Snoop Dogg needs to quit acting like he's a real gangsta, don't he know that real gangstas are either dead or in jail!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
so the niggas on the streets killin,robbin,pimpin what are they.
you internet nerds kill me.
I like SNOOP..since 187 w/ Dre..And i hear all that talk about support SNOOP and he innocent til proven guilty...But we know SNOOP a weed head at least..And he even be up on MTV cameras blowin that LA-LA..So even if he is innocent or cops planted stuff he gotta be smarter than that..He's a serious VET in this rap game and was prolly around b4 this HIP-HOP-POLICE even started..He should be more focused than these new cats...Nggz hate on 50 but SNOOP should think about some licenced pistol carriers to avoid this shit..And go smoke @ home
one question?
if gunit isnt rellevent anymore who is and if they aint then why keeping briging them up and have blogs based on them.\\
ya can let that fool with the butterfly fool ya if you want,
anyway to the nigga who talked bad an said he was a educated borther what ever that means,
the CIA made tookie who he was they not only let him kill they instructed him to do so.
that fagget you talkin about got knock out by tookie and it must have hurt cause he started Swans blood gangs shortly after that and is still bitter over that.
dont get me wrong wrong is wrong.
but it was different back then CIA made the crips bullies thats how the brims,bloods,piru's and bountyhunters started.
you see raymond washington wanted it more Black panther style where is tookie wanted the fame part of it.
to make along story short tookie like other original crips from that time let the Pigs play him and by 77 both them niggas the original creators and four father of the crips were off of the streets.
like SNOOP..since 187 w/ Dre..And i hear all that talk about support SNOOP and he innocent til proven guilty...But we know SNOOP a weed head at least..And he even be up on MTV cameras blowin that LA-LA..So even if he is innocent or cops planted stuff he gotta be smarter than that..He's a serious VET in this rap game and was prolly around b4 this HIP-HOP-POLICE even started..He should be more focused than these new cats...Nggz hate on 50 but SNOOP should think about some licenced pistol carriers to avoid this shit..And go smoke @ home

snoop will attend a drug program and receive probation Guarenteed on my moma.
my nigga all you need is money to beat a case thats it.
I don't understand these niccas at SOHH.com. There's either a blog about a nicca being a pussy and not being a "real G" or a post about a nicca who got pinched by some pigs and being a fucking idiot. Which one is it Sohh????
I don't think there is one rapper that SOHH can support without hating on. I mean WHO THE FUCK DO THESE DUMBASS BLOG WRITIN NICCAS LIKE?????
It wasn't a good idea for Snoop to be riding with two gangbangers, one with an open warrant, a heater, and some blow, but got damn, quit criticizing every fuckin thing every rapper does.
The nicca got pinched. I think he got enough problems.
These niggaz at sohh can't even write a blog without a mistake in their writing.
AM I RIGHT ABOUT THIS SHIT OR WHAT?? NO ONE CAN WIN WITH THESE NICCAS WRITING THIS BULLSHIT.

Actually, no, you're not right.
In case you're just tuning in (which is obviously the case), I spent all of last week bigging up Blue Carpet Treatment and giving Snoop daps for making his best album since Doggystyle; I even gave him daps on the album in this blog. I criticized him for making some dumbass decisions, which you just paraphrased, in between saying SOHH hates the world.
Your logic sucks, homie.
Oh, and also, I've never said shit about anyone "not being a real g" or being a pussy, so I'm not really sure where the fuck where you're getting that from.

I know but its the way you write it we dont need another shock blogger snoop is just being snoop he aint REV snoop
he aint professer snoop.
this is the cat who brought you it aint no fun if the homies cant have none.
bitches aint shit etc
he got caught with his pants down (what would you do). snoop is the realest west coast cat out right now he aint beefing with nobody he can go to his hood and he is a Legend.
alright SOHH EIGHTY, since i have your attention i just wanna say that yall may not be saying "this nigga is a pussy" but y'all come damn close. i'm not saying yall say that shit straight up, but yall definitely seem like the hardest niccas in the world to satisfy. there's always some negative criticism of a nicca, even in the blogs where you big up an album or an artist.
my point is yall have a hard time keepin it all the way real. always hatin on someone for something or complaining about something. why dont yall start a blog about some positive ocmmentary? instead discussing what jay-z tracks suck, how about talking bout the ones all us niccas feel good about when we turn that shit up???

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I see your point, but I feel like that's something I definitely try to do. To put it into persepective though, when I review an album, I try to give a COMPLETE review, which includes the good and the bad. Even if I love an album (and I loved Blue Carpet) I'm still going to discuss its low points as well as the its strengths.
I can't speak for the other blog writers, but you're right- I definitely do get a some negative vibe occasionally. But when I write about hip hop every day, something that I'm not feeling is gonna come every now and then. I try to keep it mostly positive, but shit's frustrating; I love hip hop, but I hate when dudes come with weak ass shit and push it on the masses.
In regards to Snoop, I respect him for the most part- as an artist, and as someone who does a lot of positive work for his community. But it's like two steps forward, three steps back. When he gets arrested three times in three months, it stands out to the non-hip hop population a lot more than his work in the community does, which sucks.
At any rate, I appreciate you giving a respectful, well-thought out response, instead of just wildin out in a burst of put downs and namecalling like a lot of cats do on here.
Peace,
80
Sorry snoop is no hero for young black men. I seen snoop with that Federation producer Rickrock I hope he don't get missed up behind snoop. I feel sorry for his wife. He may have money, but he is no real husband to her. He is not above the law ,and he is playing around acting igoranat ,which is going to land him in jail. Money can't change the man only the man can himself with God. People like snoop still lives in a slave mind thats why he can't see his blessings.
