Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg reveal the secret behind their 30-year friendship in a new interview.
Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg are on the promo run for their new Gin & Juice cocktail line, as they launched the brand in London this week. During their visit to the UK, the longtime friend and collaborator sat down with Capital Xtra for a new interview.
During one part of the interview, the legendary producer recalled a story of going on a “disappointing” blind date with Snoop in the early 90s. “When we got there, this girl opened the door and she was beautiful. I thought it was mine and it wasn’t. Snoop pushed me out the way like, ‘Nah cuz, that’s me.’ When I turned that corner and saw mine, I was really disappointed,” Dre recalls.
He continued, “And we drove for like an hour in Hurricane Katrina to get there and I was extremely disappointed. The good part about that is when we left that situation, the next day we went to the studio and made ‘Nuthin’ But A ‘G’ Thang.’”

In the interview, the duo also reveals what their friendship taught each other. “It taught me how to be professional, Dr. Dre has always been like a big brother to me,” said Snoop. “He’s taught me professionalism, he’s always had the attitude and the spirit of always looking forward.” “It’s always about what’s next and what’s best, he’s always a protector.”
