In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Bob Marley-incarnate/family-friendly reggae artist Snoop Lion reveals he actually used to be a literal pimp in case everybody didn’t already figure that out from his outfits which he also admits was 90% of the reason why he became one in the first place:
“I did a Playboy tour, and I had a bus follow me with ten bitches on it. I could fire a bitch, fuck a bitch, get a new ho: It was my program. City to city, titty to titty, hotel room to hotel room, athlete to athlete, entertainer to entertainer.”
…
“It was never about the money; it was about the fascination of being a pimp . . . As a kid I dreamed of being a pimp, I dreamed of having cars and clothes and bitches to match. I said, ‘Fuck it – I’m finna do it.’”
But like all Snoop stories, this one ends with him smoking his face off in a Jamaican cave so hard he genuinely believes he’s a lion having a heart of gold:
Unlike most pimps, Snoop says he let his women keep the money. “I’d act like I’d take the money from the bitch, but I’d let her have it.”
“I mean, shit, I’d choke her, slap her around, make a motherfuckin’ show of it, but at the end of the day, the bitch earned that money fuckin’ all them ball players I sold her to. I ain’t no monster.”
