Dr. Dre left Snoop Dogg emotional while discussing his longtime collaborator's purchase of Death Row Records. The two both appeared at ComplexCon in Las Vegas for a live taping of an interview on Drink Champs over the weekend. When the topic of Death Row came up, Dre explained how "proud" he was of Snoop for the move.
“Let me tell you something, man. I was so upset when I heard that Snoop was doing the Death Row sh*t at the beginning,” he said. “Like, ‘N****, that sh*t has so much bullsh*t following it.’ But now, I’m so happy about it and so impressed at what my brother’s doing because he’s taken the thing that we created and brought it back to life. I see his vision now. I appreciate it, and I’m proud of it.” The praise left Snoop emotional, responding: “That made me feel good. Thank y’all. Y’all tryna make a n**** cry.”
