3 Awesome Episodes Of Snoop's GGN YouTube Show

I know I'm a little late to the game with this one, but Snoop Dogg's popular YouTube series GGN is coming to late night television!  Revolt picked up the show to appear every Wednesday night at 10:30 PM EST (the show apparently started on November 11th). Are you as excited as I am?  Snoop brings his incredibly amiable personality (and also conversation fueled by mostly weed) to TV; this is actually a lot cooler than it sounds (if that's possible). So to celebrate, I've compiled 3 awesome episodes (although there are many, many more) of his GGN series on YouTube.

Interview with Seth Rogen


This is awesome; the biggest smoker rapper and the biggest smoker actor coming together to rejoice and smoke cross joints while laughing at Seth Rogen's amazingly famous cackle. Snoop and Seth discuss how Rogen got into acting, (including his friendship with James Franco) plus other interesting topics.

Interview with Michael Rappaport

 
This episode with fuck your head up; Michael Rapaport witnessed Snoop and Tupac meet!  Snoop and Rapaport discuss the night that Snoop and Tupac met (also Snoop admits that Tupac was the one that got Snoop into smoking blunts, and they even had a freestyle battle against each other the night of the Poetic Justice wrap party). Legendary stories in this one for sure, the kind that you could listen to for days.

Interview with G-Unit

Absolute GEMS dropped in this interview. Snoop brings on 50 Cent and the rest of G-Unit to talk about what hip hop used to be, and compare it to what it is now. Who better to discuss these things than this group of people (more specifically Snoop and 50)?  They hit the nail right on the head with this conversation, and 50 Cent sounds as intellectual a person he's ever sounded in this interview.

So there's a few dope conversations (because Snoop doesn't interview people, he's very good at conversing with people and making it seem like less of an interview) that should hopefully get you excited about what's to come on Snoop's cable edition of GGN. But what else could we expect?  Probably more weed smoking and (hopefully) Stormy Fronts back on to give us such an awesome view of the weather. Only time will tell, my eyes will be open for the cable edition, and yours should be too! 

    







         

Throwback Thursday: I Guess Ja Rule Was Okaaaaaay

Does anyone remember that Ja Rule actually existed?  No?  Well then this post might actually blow your mind. Ja Rule once was a successful rapper in the early 2000s (an era that I'm particularly fond of), and had a couple of really big hits with some star studded features (some big RnB singers Ja had featured on his albums were big names like Jennifer Lopez, R. Kelly, and Ashanti multiple times). Respect is due where it is earned, and it'd be wrong of me to shun Ja for some great memories Ja has created for me through his music.

(this one brings back fantastic memories, even though at the time being so young it's hard to believe now that it was Ja Rule that was making me jig)

I'm a huge Eminem fan (I believe I've stated before), so for me to even mention Ja's name is like summoning Voldemort, but I can't deny the fact that Ja had some soulful hits back in the day. It's unfortunate that Ja's career had to be shortened due to 50 Cent and Eminem's dismantling of him in the early 2000s (come on now, you know it's true, everyone on Shady AND on G Unit got involved), but when Ja made music and didn't get involved in beef with anybody, he always did pretty damn good for himself. Ja had 2 albums that topped the U.S. billboard 200 (Rule 3:36 in 2000 and Pain Is Love in 2001), he earned 4 Grammy nominations and even had six top 10 albums under  his belt.

Is a Ja Rule comeback possible?  Who knows, but what we do know is that Ja is keeping his name in headlines, even today. Earlier this year his beef with 50 Cent was reignited when the 2 started going back and forth on Twitter and Instagram over a comment Ja made when a fan asked a question about the feud on Twitter. Not only exciting beefs being reignited, but apparently in May of this year, Ja made his first known attempt at business and entrepreneurship by partnering with Billy McFarland, the CEO of Magnises, (a credit card service company) to become the "creative head and spokesman" of the company. Will it work out for Ja?  Only time will tell, but until then, we can sit back and enjoy some of his biggest hits, some being the perfect blend of RnB soul singing and a strong hip hop voice.
