"For me, the music world is about learning and seeking information, and not being too proud to ask questions," said Snoop Dogg.

I was truly amazed," he recalled.

Not wanting to keep his curiosity to himself, Snoop quickly asked Terrace Martin for Kendrick's number. "I called him right away and said, 'Bro, how do you put on a show that cool? What do I need to do to make my show like that?'" Snoop shared. This confession shows how Snoop Dogg, despite being a legend, remains humble enough to learn from younger talents like Kendrick Lamar.

Snoop Dogg recounted that Kendrick Lamar gave him simple yet meaningful advice. "He gave me simple advice, but from that brief conversation, I gained a lot of information that ultimately made my performance better.

When Bootleg Kev asked if humility is the key to his success and long career, Snoop immediately agreed. "What you put out is what you will get back," he said.

But after reaching the album The Doggfather, I started seeking new energy, and since then I have remained consistent."

Snoop's statement shows that the key to becoming a true legend is not just about talent, but also the ability to keep learning, adapting, and maintaining positive energy throughout life's journey. Humility and being open to growth are the great lessons he shares with the world.
