Snoop Lion takes some time to speak with Nardwuar about his old Dogg-ie Days, SXSW 2013, music, and the importance of The Bootylicious Beyonce Doll. Despite Snoop’s recent Rasta-inspired transformation to that of Lion form, that good old Dogg we all know and love hasn’t lost his bite…hilarity to ensue after the break. Jah Rastafari!

While in Austin, TX covering SXSW 2013, Nardwuar got a chance to speak with Snoop Lion, who minus his new moniker, is the same old Snoop he’s always been. After his visit to Jamaica last year, Snoop has now set his musical sights on producing songs of the Rastafarian nature.

Despite his latest album Reincarnated which contains no profanity and a track titled “No Guns Allowed”, Snoop riddles the interview below with cursing and stories involving him and Tupac being shot at in Miami. Regardless of what name you know him by or what music you love him for, this interview with Snoop certainly has one wondering if you can in fact teach an old Dogg new tricks. Find out below.
