The best advice I've ever got is to be yourself. Stay true to who you are and what you stand for and you'll go far in life.

My liberty is about living. It's about spreading more love. Even though I was always a peaceful, loving individual, my music sometimes didn't reflect that. But now it's different. My music is reflecting the way I feel.

My mama couldn't give me what I wanted. I had all right clothes, but the people I was with had better clothes. I felt that I had to have better clothes.

Growing up, I didn't dream of being nothing, of living in the ghetto my whole life. I wanted to get out.

Push yourself, when you get smart up top (in your head), your skills will fall right into place.

Drop it like it's hot.

To me, the Seventies were very inspirational and very influential... With my whole persona as Snoop Dogg, as a person, as a rapper. I just love the Seventies style, the way all the players dressed nice, you know, kept their hair looking good, drove sharp cars and they talked real slick.
