Since making his debut in the early \u201890s, the Long Beach native managed to reinvent himself in several ways by tapping into a bunch of different sounds. There was a time, though, where Snoop decided to change things up regarding what he was rapping about.<\/p>\n<p>During a conversation with Fatman Scoop on Instagram Live, the West Coast legend spoke about his decision to alter his rhymes following his acquittal on the 1993 murder charge he was facing. That turbulent moment in his career made him realize the power his words and music have.<\/p>\n<style>\n                                    #div-gpt-ad-body1 >div {\n                                     margin-bottom: 16px;\n                                    }<\/p>\n<p>                                .article-advertisement.article-body.article-<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a>{\n                                    margin-top: 16px;\n                                }<\/p>\n<p>                                .article-advertisement.article-body.article-news p {\n                                    margin-top: 0;\n                                }\n                                    <\/style>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-body1\" class=\"centered-ad\">\n<script>\n                        googletag.cmd.push(function () { \n                            googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-body1');\n                            googletag.pubads().refresh([window.ad_slot_body1]);\n                        });\n                    <\/script><\/div>\n<p>\u201cOne day, me and my cousin Daz [Dillinger] were going to the studio, and I had a song in my head called \u2018Dave,&#8217;\u201d Snoop said in the clip. \u201cD-A-V-E, Death After Visualizing Eternity.
