Snoop Dogg – Africuzz

Chace Infinite X GoodWood NYC for Snoop Dogg -Blue Africa

I have been holding on to Snoop’s piece for a long time now.  I only made 2 blue pieces one for Snoop and the other for Nipsey Hussle, only Goodwood spelled Nipsey’s name wrong so I have yet to give him his.  I haven’t really seen Dogg (outside of performances) since I worked at Priority Records (97-2001).  Since I was opening the show for him out here in Stavanger, Norway. . . I knew I would get a chance to give him his piece in person.  I went looking for the homie Ted, who is also Snoops business partner / manager as he was working backstage from his makeshift office, which consisted of cardboard boxes stacked high enough to rest a laptop on, and a borrowed production chair.  I asked Ted if it would be cool for me to give Snoop his Africa and maybe snap a pic of him with it on.  Ted was cool enough to walk me in after Snoop performed about 10 interviews and signed 1000 autographs in 15 minutes. Snoop is an icon and one of the most accomplished individuals in entertainment ever.  Beyond that he is a personal favorite of my father, and a true example of the West Coast , a Father, Gangster, Gentleman, and Hustler.  My life is crazy. . .

Ted, I got you on the Prohibit gear.
