Snoop Dogg, a name synonymous with hip-hop, knows that staying relevant means keeping an open mind. He doesn’t shy away from reaching out to younger artists like Kendrick Lamar for advice.
While overseas watching Kendrick Lamar perform in Paris, Snoop was so impressed with Kendrick’s performance that he felt the urge to ask him, “Man, how the fuck did you do that show?” The tips he received were simple yet transformative for Snoop’s own performances.
Snoop’s willingness to seek advice from Kendrick, who he described as “younger,” “flyer,” and “doper,” reflects a lack of ego that is rare in the industry. This attitude helped him improve his craft.

Instead of taking offense when Kendrick called him out on a track, Snoop took it in stride, emphasizing their mutual respect and understanding in the industry.
