Snoop calls for unity after Proof death

[Ozir]

Legendary American hip-hop artist Snoop Dogg has called on his fellow musicians to unite after the fatal shooting of D-12 member Proof.

Proof, a close friend of rapper Eminem and member of the D-12 hip-hop outfit was shot dead outside a Detroit nightclub earlier this week.

Snoop Dogg said Proof's death was a loss to the hip-hop community.

"He was a part of the hip-hop family," said Snoop Dogg at the MTV Australia Music Awards.

"We can't stop it (violence) ... we try to ... we try to be as positive as we can and do good things with our lives."

"I just know that every time somebody gets killed in hip-hop we should look at it as a tragedy.

"There's nothing we can do to stop it as hip-hop artists but be who we are and continue to make our good music."

Snoop Dogg was one of the big names to attend the MTV awards, winning the best hip-hop video award for his song Drop It Like It's Hot.

For real though, Snoop will be on his next video with blue rags all over him. All I can say is hypocrite.

If Snoop is really serious about unity and isn't talking out of his ass, he'll renounce his gang ties instead of overexaggerating them and playing them up like he has the last 13 years.

every rapper is a hypocrit. They all talk about killing and guns, but when someone close really got shot, they tell us to unite. I'm not saying it's bad to unite but if a rapper really holds on to that point, they shouldn't be making albums about killing people. Thing is, voilence sells more than peace

all snoop should say is RIP....everything else he might say is a lie.  its a damn shame too.

Snoop may sound hypocrite to you, but some of you are even worse, talking shit about Snoop all the time he raps about something else because he dont give you that "Gangsta Shit" , I think he does it for the fans... but then again when he makes non-gangsta songs, you call him pop
