There’s a lot of buzz right now about a feud brewing between Snoop Dogg and Eminem over Snoop’s Top Ten all-time rappers list, which didn’t include Eminem.
Snoop visited “The Breakfast Club” radio show and explained:
“Eminem, The Great White Hope. White rappers had zero respect in rap. Dr. Dre has probably put Eminem in the position that he would be considered one of the top 10 rappers ever. I don’t think so, but the game thinks that he’s [in the] top 10 lyricists and everything that comes with it. That’s just because he’s with Dr. Dre,” Snoop said. He explained that there are a lot of rappers from the ‘80s that Eminem couldn’t match, like Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, KRS-One, LL Cool J, and Ice Cube. Snoop said he has love and respect for Eminem because they are both protégés of Dr. Dre, but that Eminem makes music that Snoop could live without.
In true Taylor Swift form, Eminem turned anger into lyrics and countered with the song “Zeus”:
“And, as far as squashin’ beef, I’m used to people knockin’ me
But, just not in my camp
I’m diplomatic, ’cause I’m tryna be—
Last thing I need is Snoop—doggin’ me
Man, dog, you was like a (Yeah) damn god to me
Man, not really (Haha)
I had dog backwards.”
Of course, all of this gives fans and trolls alike plenty of opportunities to state their opinions on social media. In an interview with his own Station 45, Eminem claimed his problem was more about the tone Snoop was using that had caught him off
