Yes, and it was him branching out that brought upon the ire of 2pac, and ultimately produced the biggest fail of his career, "The Game Is To Be Sold" album. As Dre said in 1996 after leaving Death Row, he wasn't an "industry" hoe. He didn't believe in doing music with someone like Madonna or Michael Jackson just cause they were hot at the time. Dre would rather work with someone he's cool with or break a new artist. Suge and Dre always counseled Snoop when he was on Death Row about not watering himself down and overexposing himself. He should of taken heed.
Then once Snoop went back to working with his homies from Long Beach, and put the Eastsidaz out on Dogghouse/Doggystyle, his career was resurrected. Then he started fucking wit Pharrel and fell off again.

I wish bro, but unfortunately I'm not the most computer savvy.
I did have Blade make a website for me once to promote my 2002 novel, "2pac, The Hip-Hop Prophet".

no.. you would be surprised. One can actually live more freely than you expected. You don't have to hide your love for rap music and be ashamed of it to make it in the world.

pharrell saved snoop's career in terms of relevance. pharrell gave snoop his biggest selling single to date, and he updated his sound with radio friendly yet funky cuts (beautiful, let's get blown and signs). and snoop is grateful to pharrell for that, check his GGN interview which came out this month. the eastsidaz period is obviously better in terms of gangsta music but you can't possibly say that pharrell hurt snoop's carrer when he did the exact opposite. by the way Master P helped Snoop more than Suge by teaching him how to put together and run his own label, when Snoop had failed to do so under Suge's guidance. and Snoop still gives props to P for that to this day. Da Game is to be Sold sold more than any other Snoop album except Doggfather and Doggystyle, so I wouldn't say Snoop made a terrible decision.
