Fo' shizzle. Dizzle. Here's a lil' guide-izzle to Snoop Dizzle. 

Calvin Broadus Jr. a.k.a Snoop Doggy Dogg performs the classic 'Doggystyle' on Saturday at Lovebox this year, and for those who don't know who this crip-walkin', pimp-hand bearing, Westsider is... you're in luck, for you have stumbled across a beginner's guide to the man himself.

October 20th 1971. A legend is born. He grows up a little bit, goes through high school, gets arrested for drug possession, yada yada yada. And then BAM! A mixtape he made with Warren G and cousin Nate Dogg (R.I.P) a.k.a the 213 gets through to the one and only Dr. Dre and suddenly his career goes stratospheric.

Before you know it, Doggystyle hit the shops. The streets (as well as the critics) went crazy for this one...

Snoop Dogg – Who Am I? (What's My Name?)



Word! People were then asking, “Who is Snoop Dogg?” I think he replied duly with this one...

Snoop Dogg – Gin & Juice



So it was plain to see, that Snoop D O double G, really liked his Hennessey and treated females rather unfairly. But don't let that put you off, because he's back on course, to treating ladies right, even though his porno doesn't make it seem like (it)...

Snoop then thought, “Damn playa, what if I get taken to court? For all the ladies I exploit!” He then released this track, which made such allegations look whack...

Snoop Dogg – Beautiful (ft. Pharrell)



And if you thought the bangers would now stop, Snoop decided to let something hot drop. (Which is really silly really because he could have dropped it on his foot, or worse, someone else's)

So now Snoop loves the ladies, and had a few babies. And thought to himself, “Hey!... Why not show people my life from day-to-day?...



So now you know a bit about the Snoop D. O. double G. Catch him at Lovebox, day tickets are £28.50.
