The untimely demise of DMX in 2021 evoked profound emotions within the hip-hop fraternity, compelling artists across the globe to contemplate their encounters with the renowned New York rapper. One of the individuals who had the honor of engaging in substantial collaboration with X was Snoop Dogg. Their renowned confrontation in Verzuz in July 2020 demonstrated not only competition but also a deep-seated camaraderie between these two influential MCs.

Snoop recently discussed his thoughts on X following his release from Verzuz in an exclusive interview with Insider. After the lively combat, the Doggfather himself proceeded to the culinary area to prepare an opulent feast as a gesture of jubilation.

“I fondly recall having a fantastic time cooking for the late, great DMX,” Snoop stated. “After we did our Verzuz battle at my studio, he ended up staying here and continuing to work on his album.” “Exodus,” his last studio album, was introduced in May 2021, a somber release that occurred precisely one month following his demise.

While X was in the recording studio laying down sounds, Snoop was in the kitchen preparing a culinary masterpiece. “I put together some short ribs, some rice, some gravy, some corn, and cornbread,” recalled him. “And DMX and [Verzuz co-creator] Swizz Beatz damn near ate the tray, they couldn’t believe how good it was.”The acclaim for Snoop’s cuisine was so lavish that he was compelled to spend three consecutive days in the kitchen, a responsibility he accepted with great pride and delight. “I had to cook for them for like three days in a row, and I was honored to do it and I was happy to do it,” Snoop commented. “It was gratifying to know that I was providing them with sustenance and the means to establish a record.” “One of the highlights of the experience was cooking for them and seeing them enjoy it.”Since then, Snoop has gained notoriety in the culinary world as well as in the music industry due to his popular cooking program with Martha Stewart, “Martha & Snoop’s Potluck Dinner Party.” Furthermore, in 2018, he published “From Crook to Cook: Platinum Recipes from Tha Boss Dogg’s Kitchen,” his first cookbook, solidifying his reputation as a culinary master.
