Dionne Warwick had greater than a bit prayer to say for Snoop Dogg.
In the brand new CNN film “Dionne Warwick: Don’t Make Me Over,” Warwick shared that she once invited Snoop together with another distinguished rappers within the Nineties for an intervention.
The 82-year-old singer said she had enough of the misogynistic lyrics within the songs topping the charts and invited them to satisfy at her home at 7 a.m. sharp — which intimidated Snoop and his friends a lot that they arrived at 6:52 a.m.
“We were form of, like, scared and shook up,” Snoop admitted. “We’re powerful immediately, but she’s been powerful without end. Thirty-some years in the sport, in the massive home with numerous money and success.”
After they showed up on the “Heartbreaker” singer’s driveway, she insisted that they call her a “bitch” to her face — since that’s what all of them called women of their lyrics.
“She was checking me at a time when I assumed we couldn’t be checked,” Snoop revealed. “We were essentially the most gangsta as you would be, but that day at Dionne Warwick’s house, I think we got out-gangstered that day.
“All of them showed up and, yeah, it did work,” Warwick remembered. “I believe what it was was that they needed to listen to me.”
Warwick said she told the group of rappers: “You guys are all going to grow up. You’re going to have families. You’re going to have children. You’re going to have little girls and sooner or later that little girl goes to take a look at you and say, ‘Daddy, did you actually say that? Is that actually you?’ What are you going to say?”
The tactic actually worked, and Snoop left the intervention inspired to alter the way in which he approached his music.
“I made it some extent to place records of joy – me uplifting everybody and no person dying and everybody living,” Snoop said of his change, which began along with his 1996 album “Tha Doggfather.”
“Dionne, I hope I became the jewel that you simply saw after I was the little, dirty rock that was in your own home,” Snoop added. “I hope I’m making you proud.”
