Eminem and Snoop Dogg had a hit together in the UK. Their song From The D To The LBC debuted this week at number 51.
The title From The D To The LBC refers to the two rappers’ home bases. ‘D’ stands for Detroit of Eminem and “LBC” stands for Long Beach, California. Here he is Peeping Dog from. With this single, the rappers celebrate their long-standing friendship and definitively confirm that their short beef (disagreement) from 2020 has been resolved. That year, Snoop Dogg entered the top 10 most successful rappers of all time, without using Eminem. Eminem responded to this in the song Zeus from his album Music To Be Murdered By – Side B. But now things are back to normal.
Despite their friendship over the years, we’ve only ever heard Eminem and Snoop Dogg together on a song before. On the song Bitch Please II from The Marshall Mathers LP Eminem from 2000, Snoop Dogg is one of the rappers to make a guest appearance. Around the same time, the two men also collaborated on a single Forget About Dre / Still DRE from dr. Dre. However, it was a ‘double A-side’ with Eminem taking over on track one and Snoop on track two.
In the music video, Eminem and Snoop Dogg are seen together in the studio. However, most videos are animation. In it we see a rapper in the guise of two monkeys.
