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 ::)

That's the truth right there.
What people get it twisted is they "confuse hip-hop with real life when the music stops." What's on record is entertainment, pure and simple. What's out there in the streets is the real shit.
I remember reading a Knoc-Turn'al interview where he said every rapper is an actor. "When I go to the studio, I act as Knoc-Turn'al, when Calvin goes to the studio he acts as Snoop Dogg." Something on those lines.
But what happened to Proof didn't happen in any studio, and Snoop and anybody else is right to call for peace.

Snoop always gettin' scared and shit...............
reminds me of tha Death Row vs Bad Boy/East Coats - West Coast Beef.
That nigga was sayin' all sorts of shit when he was on stage at The Source awards then when it got real heated he started sayin' he'll like to do collabo's witt this nigga and that nigga. Snoop started suckin' up to alot of East Coast niggaz after Pac died. Jay-Z, Mobb Deep, Powder Puff Daddy etc...
but at tha end of tha day he's still in my Top 5 all time 8)

Everyone calling for unity after a loss in rap game. In other circumstances they can't keep it real with unity and love...I hate it when everyone shows love after the one they speak about is already dead. I AM NOT SPEAKING ABOUT SNOOPIt's cool of him to do that but generally, didn't you see that it always happens that way?
-
well Snoop's been speaking of unity for awhile now (Proofs death aside) about the westcoast and how rappers need to stop beefing and make music together. Snoops really been doing alot for the westcoast lately by trying to unite everyone and put the westcoast all on the same page. I see what you guys mean about how people only act like this after someone dies but I always kinda saw Snoop as a "peace maker" kinda dude.....At least Snoop is trying to make his voice heard anyways......would you rather him not care? or not say anything at all?
-
but then on Snoop's next album he'll have a track about killin and shooting niggas up.....
Exactly!

thats real
I am way more annoyed by Snoop pretending to be a gangbanger than I am with him working with Justin Timberlake, Brittney Spears or Pussycat Dolls. Crip crip crip c-walk c-walk gangbang gangbang we all gangbang even though he's 33 and lives in a mansion in Diamond Bar and has a wife and kids. That's quite a drive from Long Beach.
If he's serious about peace he'd renounce all the gang bullshit, which is the real reason that the west coast doesn't have unity.

LMFAO hahahaha
That's so true right there.

Its a Fact that Snoop needs to check himself before trying to bring unity though, How the hell you try to bring peace when you are promotiong violence? and look at his chain, look at his lifestyle, Snoop is a cool dude no doubt, but he would never be a model for me,

wrong! snoop has been sayin what the west coast wants him to hear just to get brownie points (cuz he knows his fanbase is decreasing on the west). that peace treaty shiet he did was just to promote his tour with game

True. Although I beilive the triety was to promote him as a whole not just his tour. And everyone talks about how Snoop talks about peace when someone gets shot or whatever then he'll go talk about crip shit and violence. Well what the fuck you want from him? He's done a couple songs recently (real soon, ups and downs) about peace, respect for homies and shit, but everyone seems to be more intrested in him saying cwalk this and crippin' that. Wake up people, it's called gangsta rap; hate it or love it.
-
who says that they gangbang right now? no one I listen to
u guys are dumb, Snoop just reps that shit cuz that's what he grew up on
wanna say some shit, talk about Xzibit, making Get Ya Walk On and bein all down with that Crip shit in 99-01
dude was in his late 20's and he's from New Mexico, had nothin to do with that lifestyle and shit
not dissin Xzibit, just makin a point
it's been a while since Snoop been rappin about actually doin dirt and actually BEING serious about it, not on the entertainment side
I just don't know how u can call a guy fake who used to be slangin crack, has done time in jail, was involved in a murder trial in some shit he saw right there some guy gettin killed, actually been in the streets at a time in his life and done better shit than you've done or will ever do
I'm not sayin he's the baddest gangsta to ever live, of course there are unimaginable people who have been more gangsta than he's ever been
my whole point is look at what he's done and seen and look what ur nerdy ass has done sittin like a geek doin some bullshit everyday
and what about Dr. Dre, u don't think he's ever said all that shit Snoop's said?
haven't heard Dre rap in a cool minute on any shit but he sure is one of the powerhouses and producers for guys like 50 Cent, and u kno what he talked about to get rich and famous
so learn how the world goes round u fuckin squares
-
oh ya and most u guys talkin shit on Snoop, I've seen lots over time, you'll be the first to be clinging to his sack if he makes a surprise major role on "Detox" or some shit
