...that magnanimous; the women are at least 18, clearly far too old for Kelly’s taste. Exegesis number two: Snoop is on a crusade. Yes, an actual crusade. How else can one explain the girls in chain-mail, Snoop’s semi-medieval hood, or the giant grail-like chalice he uses to get his drink on? Snoop’s a knight sent from SoCal to annex the Middle West. The third interpretation is that Snoop just wanted a vacation. Maybe he wanted a chance to rock his unworn furs and hang with some heartland honeys...

"This is it," said one of the men, thrusting something into the breast pocket of his dishdasha and pulling him out of the trunk. "Thank God for your freedom." The car sped away before Waddah could get to his feet. He found...
...with your success that counts. “I’m blowin’ up like you thought I would,” the Notorious B.I.G. rapped on the classic track, “Juicy.” “Call the crib, same number, same hood / It’s all good.” Biggie knew that he would only be seen as a sell-out if he didn’t give back to the community he came from.
