“Hell yeah I tell him that. I’m always in my big brother mode,” said Dre.

They might be hip-hop icons, but Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg still disagree like any other pair of friends would.

During an interview with SiriusXM’s This Life of Mine released last week, Dre, 59, told James Corden that he has concerns with 52-year-old Snoop’s numerous side projects.

“I personally think he does too much shit, and we’ve been battling and bumping heads about [it],” said Dre, per HipHopDX.

“Hell yeah I tell him that. I’m always in my big brother mode. I always tell him like, ‘Why the fuck are you doing this and that? Come on.’ He’s like, ‘Let me live Dr. Dre, cuz. Let me do my thing, man. Do I bother you about the shit you doing, cuz?’ So we have our—I call it sibling rivalries and shit like that—but I would love it if he’d just focus on this thing and make sure this thing right here that we’re working on is the best that it can be.”

Dre didn’t give details on what side projects make them butt heads. But one thing that comes to mind is last November when Snoop infamously trolled the internet by pretending he was “giving up smoke,” only for it to be revealed that the stunt was to promote a brand of smokeless fire pits. It didn’t go very well for the company’s CEO.

Elsewhere in the interview, Dre reflected on surviving a brain aneurysm and three strokes in 2021, which landed him in Cedars-Sinai Hospital for two weeks.

As reported by Complex’s Jaelani Turner-Williams, the former N.W.A rapper admitted he initially ignored the symptoms and only sought medical help after his son’s friend intervened.

“I got up and I went on about my day, and I thought that I could just lay down and take a nap. My son had a female friend that was there and was like, ‘No, we need to take you to the hospital,’” he recalled “Next thing you know, I’m blacking out. I’m in and out of consciousness, and I ended up in the ICU. I was there for two weeks. I’m hearing the doctors coming in and saying, ‘You don’t know how lucky you are.’”

This incident led to Dr. Dre’s discovery of his high blood pressure, despite his otherwise healthy lifestyle.

“I had no idea that I had high blood pressure or anything like that because I’m on my health shit. I’m lifting weights, I’m running, I’m doing everything I can to keep myself healthy,” said Dre, adding that the experience made him “appreciate being alive.”
