In a move that’s left many in the hip-hop community scratching their heads, Snoop Dogg has responded to his AI-generated vocals being used on Drake’s latest diss track aimed at Kendrick Lamar – and it’s not what you’d expect. Instead of outrage or anger, Snoop took to Instagram with a hilarious and nonchalant reaction.
“They did what? When? How? Are you sure? Y’all have a good night,” Snoop wrote, clearly amused by the situation. He continued, “Why everybody calling my phone, blowing me up? What the fuck? What happened? What’s going on? I’m going back to bed. Good night.”
This reaction is a far cry from the beefs and diss tracks that often dominate hip-hop headlines. Instead, Snoop seems to be taking the whole situation in stride, perhaps even finding humor in the fact that his AI-generated vocals are being used to taunt Lamar.
It’s worth noting that Snoop praised Drake on Complex’s 360 with Speedy. “He gives me comfort in saying, if I ever wanted to leave the game, it’s in good hands,” Snoop said of Drake.
Snoop’s response is a refreshing change of pace in the often-toxic world of hip-hop beefs. By choosing not to engage with Drake’s diss track, Snoop is taking the high road and showing that even in the face of provocation, he’s not willing to stoop to the level of others.
As the hip-hop world continues to evolve and AI-generated vocals become more prevalent, it’ll be interesting to see how this situation plays out. One thing’s for sure – Snoop’s response has added some much-needed humor and humility to the situation.
