Snoop Dogg has never been shy about speaking his mind. While Snoop may be one to experiment with new sounds, he draws the line at a 2pac & Biggie AI (Artificial Intelligence) album. In an interview with Baller Alert, they asked about the proposed joint collaboration between the two late rap legends. Although Tha Doggfather wasn't fully opposed to a collaboration album. He doesn't fancy the idea of an AI-generated album featuring his late friend and the original King of New York. However, Uncle Snoop feels it would be best to find old tracks with their vocals and put together a collab tape that way as opposed to the former.
"I don't really know about that, with the AI," Snoop said. "Because that's like computerized voices. You know?" he continued. While Snoop Dogg may have his late friend's best interest at heart, however, some feel otherwise. Former Outlawz member Napoleon had some choice words regarding Snoop's comments. He claims Snoop Dogg's relationship with 'Pac was steeped in jealousy. According to Napoleon, Snoop was jealous of 2Pac, who took all his shine when he joined Death Row.
Snoop Dogg Sounds Off On AI-Generated Albums
Napoleon believes that Snoop is trying to take the shine away from 2Pac, and that's why he said what he said during the interview with Baller Alert. In the interview with The Art of Dialogue he spoke on where the jealousy came from. "Imagine you're the biggest star on Death Row and 'Pac take all your shine, you understand?" he said. "And 25 years later, 'Pac died and every time you do an interview that name is brought up," he concluded. However, Napoleon didn't stop there. He slammed the Doggystyle rapper for his remarks towards 2Pac's infamous "Hit 'Em Up" record after his passing, recommending the now grandfather remember his friend in a more positive light.
Although Snoop is open to a collaboration between the two Hip Hop icons, he's still skeptical about AI-generated albums. Nothing wrong with appreciating authentic artistry. However, with AI infiltrating every industry, this won't be the last time we see a proposed AI-generated album. Do you think an AI-generated Biggie and 2pac album would be fire?
