In a candid interview with XXL magazine Snoop Dogg has done the unthinkable, he's admitted to not writing one single line on his new album. Check the quote:


Back to the album. Initially, there weren’t supposed to be any guest artists on Ego Trippin’. Why the switch?

It just happened. That might be me ego-tripping. The real ego-tripping on this record is that I let people write songs for me.

Singing songs? Rapping songs?

Everything.

Have you run out of things to say yourself?
Nah. I’m ego-tripping. I was watching Diana Ross getting inducted into a Hall of Fame, and she got up there and named all these great songwriters. Her biggest songs were written by somebody else. So I’m thinking, Wow, there’s nothing wrong with my pen, but I’m going to let other people write for me.

Now call me crazy but I thought that a rapper aint sh*t if they can't write their own ish. I swear where is hip-hop going these days?

I swear Mimi is eternally twelve, and I love her for that.

Quote of the day:


What number would people be surprised to see in your cell phone.

"Jay-Z would proabbly surprise a few people. I think he's a talented rapper, with a great gift. I'm not sure if anyone would be shocked though."

--Barack Obama tells The Insider

This has to be one the most FUNNIEST skits I've ever seen in my life. I don't care what nobody says I fux with Jimmy Kimmel, and this ish had me in tears.
