While promoting his new Netflix film, Day Shift, Snoop Dogg stopped by the Rap Radar Podcast and explained why he's totally fine with letting other artists write for him at this stage in his career.

“I started off writing,” Snoop told B.Dot. “I started off writing for Dr. Dre, so what would I be if I didn’t allow somebody to write for me? Sometimes you gotta put yourself in the frame of letting somebody else depict a better picture for you because you can’t see everything.”

Which is why Snoop was cool with letting talented new rapper, Cordae, write for him on his latest album BODR. On “We Don’t Gotta Worry No More" Cordae penned lyrics about Snoop's mom, which ended up being prophetic.

“The beauty of that is, he wrote some lyrics about my mama," Snoop rememebered during an earlier interview with Tidal. "My mama was in great health when he wrote that, but by the time we put that out, my mama passed away"

“I shed a tear as I stare in my mom’s eyes/ Yeah I prophesized it and I manifested/ Yeah my pockets was skinny, yeah they was anorexic/ Yeah I beat a murder case and made your favorite records/ Let me say this message," Snoop recited, adding, it was crazy that a "young man could write that for me."

Snoop used Whitney Houston's work on The Bodyguard soundtrack to showcase his point about how sometimes, other people's words allow you to get into the moment more. “I feel like Whitney Houston’s best record was The Bodyguard, when the other people came in and gave her records that weren’t hers, where she could just sit back and just sing and they embodied what they thought she should be.”

He went on to say that after four decades in the game, he has nothing left to prove. “The point in my career where I’m at now, where I’ve written so many hit records,” he said. “It’s not about what I can write sometimes, it’s about what I can’t see that somebody else can write for me.”
