JAY-Z’s nаme has been thrown into the hypothetical Verzuz ring by a few potential competitors. The latest to step up to the plate is Snoop Dogg, who says if he’s going to virtually bаttle anybody, it should be the Brooklyn-born star.
“Biggie passed away, and then Nas had it for a minute, and then JAY-Z took it and ran with it for a numerous amount of years. And then 50 Cent came and ran with it for a numerous amount of years,” Snoop explained his reasoning during a chat with Fаt Joe on Monday (May 11).
“This is me looking in from the outside, looking at New York rap,” he continued. “So, to me, it would be either a Snoop or a JAY-Z because he’s been the king of New York around the time I was the king of the west.”
Snoop and JAY-Z did both dominate their respective states around the same time. Snoop’s career began on Dr. Dre’s 1992 solo debut “Deep Cover.” He was also featured on Dre’s solo debut album, The Chronic. The Long Beach native’s quadruple platinum and Dre-produced debut album Doggystyle arrived in 1993, hosting hits like “What’s My Nаme?” and “Gin & Juice.”
