One such recent drama involved two iconic figures, Snoop Dogg and Suge Knight, entangled in a clash with allegations of infidelity on Snoop’s wife circulating online. Suge Knight unleashed a storm of shocking accusations on his podcast, targeting influential figures like Diddy, Dr. Dre, Russell Simmons, and the late Andre Harold, claiming they led secret lives with same-sex relationships.
Snoop Dogg responded on Instagram, expressing prayers for Suge Knight to find peace. However, Suge fired back, bringing Snoop’s personal life into the spotlight, alleging his wife’s involvement in infidelity. The feud between these two has a long history, with tensions dating back to the mid-1990s during the height of Death Row Records’ success.
In the ongoing feud, Suge Knight dropped a bombshell, accusing Snoop Dogg of being an informant for the FBI for over a decade, providing information on criminal activities in the music industry. Snoop’s alleged role extended to drug trafficking, money laundering, and organized crime, according to Suge. The hip-hop community was divided, with some dismissing the claims as baseless, while others questioned their authenticity.
Snoop Dogg remained silent, adding to the speculation, and fellow artists found themselves caught in the crossfire. The feud affected their careers, with legal consequences looming for both. Confrontations between Snoop and Suge occurred at various events, notably at the 2018 BET Awards. Despite occasional attempts at reconciliation, the deep-rooted tensions persisted.
In 2016, a temporary truce seemed possible when Snoop expressed love and respect for Suge Knight in an interview, acknowledging the positive impact Knight had on his life. However, the feud continued, demonstrating the enduring animosity between these two hip-hop icons.
In 1996, Snoop Dogg left Death Row Records due to creative differences, marking a turning point in his relationship with Suge Knight. Snoop signed with Master P’s No Limit Records, challenging Suge’s dominance in the industry and fueling their animosity. Subtle jabs and icy glares persisted at industry events and award shows, and in 2002, Snoop released a track, “Pimp Slap,” interpreted as a diss towards Suge Knight.

Snoop Dogg is not a fan of the salacious hip-hop stories his former label boss, Suge Knight, has been sharing on his new podcast, “Collect Call.” The show premiered last year on Halloween; however, Knight’s eyebrow-raising account of Tupac Shakur’s murder, how Snoop beat his infamous 1996 murder case, and more have kept listeners engaged through 11 episodes thus far.
The latest, titled “The Fight,” fuels rampant rumors of leading Black entertainers like Russell Simmons, Andre Harrell, Sean “Diddy” Combs, and others being involved in scandalous sexual behavior.
When a VLAD TV post sharing an article about Knight’s accusations crossed Snoop’s Instagram timeline, he could not help but comment on the hot topic. “Smh I’m praying for that brother that he finds peace,” wrote the West Coast rap legend in the comments.

Others responded with remarks about Suge such as “he’s inside miserable so he trying to kick up some dust but know one is listening” and “Snoop you doing all that talking, but was scared of him during his prime. Suge had your a– crip walking for your life. Dnt try to clown that man while he in prison because you know stuff would’ve went different in the 90s.”
The rapper and the label executive’s relationship began when Snoop was signed to Death Row Records, which released his debut album, “Doggystyle,” in 1993. His time on the roster, which included Tupac Shakur and label co-founder Dr. Dre, was short-lived, as he left in 1997 following the death of Tupac amid West and East Coast rivalries.
Snoop stated in a previous interview that after being cleared of a deadly gang-related shooting — for which Knight claims he helped keep the rapper out of jail — he was met with pushback as he attempted to shed some of his gangster persona. The two men would spend years locked in a feud, though by 2016 it seemed their issues had been put to rest, at least temporarily.
