Snoop Dogg’s online TV show is usually too smoked out and crazy for us, but on the latest episode his guest is the one and only DJ Premier. It starts off with Snoop paying homage to the early Gang Starr records, before Primo moves on to talk about PRhyme, his new project with Royce Da 5’9″.
Also up for discussion is the tracks they have collaborated on together. It’s easy to think of Primo as a producer who only works with boom-bap artists from New York, but he’s mixed it up with Snoop, MC Eight and plenty of other West Coast rappers over the years.
Premier also drops in a little teaser about that long-awaited Nas collaboration, which hopefully will see the light of day at some point after Nas finishes his duties with Def Jam. Amazingly, Snoop claims not to have known that Primo has worked with Nas since Illmatic, but that may have just been the weed talking. Watch the full clip below.
The PRhyme album is set to be released in the next few weeks.
