I Went Out And Got Little Jobs.

My Name Was Given To Me. I Didn't Just Decide To Change It One Day. But I Ran With It To Reflect A More Peaceful And Positive Attitude For My New Reincarnated Project. The Snoop Dogg Name Is So Connected To Hip-hop, And I Didn't Want To Change That. Hip-hop Raised Me, And I Would Never Turn My Back On It.

The Most Important Decision I've Made In Business? The Choices Of People I Have Around Me. When I First Started I Brought Everybody With Me, My Homies From The Neighborhood, Criminals. I Just Said, 'come On Everybody, We Made It.' Then I Had To Realize We Didn't Make It. I Made It.

It's Natural. I Freestyle, Meaning That I Just Rap. I Might Put Words On Paper, But I Just Put A Beat On My Rap, And Go Off The Top Of My Head. It's Something I've Been Able To Do For A Long Time.

People Don't Understand That You Can Actually Lose Your Life Going To Jail. There's More Violence In The Jail-house Than There Is On The Streets.
