Snoop Dog Talks 3D "That Tree" Song Collaboration with KiD CuDi (Video)

MTV Shows

Speaking to MTV for mixtape daily, Snoop shares his fear of 3D movies, talks about Cudi and also explains that the upcoming “That Tree” video will be in 3D.


“We did a cold video for that song,” Snoop told Mixtape Daily. “I like working with Kid Cudi. To me, he’s fun, dynamic, a brand-new style of MC. He gives hip-hop what it’s missing right now, being fun and getting back to what it used to be. Everybody don’t have to frown up and tell a story about going to jail, getting shot, having hard times. It can be fun sometimes. To me, his music represents that. His persona represents that. I hung out with him a few times, and he’s really my nephew. He calls me Uncle Snoop. I’m happy we had a chance to work together.

A Bathing Ape x KiD CuDi Interview & Photoshoot

Kid Cudi was featured within A Bathing Ape’s new catalog for the 2010 Summer season. Shown are a collection of images from the shoot along with an interview seen below. The photography was shot by Guy Aroch. Its definitely been busy times for the multi-faceted Scott Mescudi. Enjoy!

How was 2009? The release of your first album and touring must have been highlights?

Looking back at 2009 is just really overwhelming for me, the fans have carried me so far and I’m just enlightened by all the love I’ve received thus far. The highlight is traveling and meeting all these beautiful young people who feel how I feel. I speak their language.

You worked at BAPE STORE NEW YORK before. How did that come about and why did you want to work there?

I was always a fan of the brand but it just wasn’t something I could afford back then. I remember working there my first couple of weeks in the same uniform cause I didn’t own anything prior to being hired. So it was a dream come true to be able to work at the store I dreamed of shopping in one day. Over a couple of years I might have applied at the store 3 or 4 times before the last attempt that got me hired. I fell in love with BAPE because of their color selection and artwork. I love the style of their cartoons.

How did you first get to know about BAPE?

I discovered what BAPE was when I moved to NY, the store opened up shortly after I moved from Cleveland.

Did you hear any interesting stories about your time there?

I remember Kanye coming in one time and I was helping him get a couple things. I forgot to take a sensor off of one of the jackets he bought and I had to run out the store to catch him before he left. Pretty funny me chasing after him in SoHo haha.

What do you think of BAPE at the moment?

I think BAPE is taking things to amazing new levels. I love the new designs and artwork. They stay true to classic BAPE style but including new and creative twists here and there. I love what they’ve done lately with my MILO character.

Do you have any styling rules when you dress?

I def stick to what works for me. I like to be comfortable, I have a ridiculous amount of t-shirts, some vintage but mostly BAPE. I wear the same jeans everyday a couple months at a time. I have a uniform haha.

Please tell us your plans for 2010.

I’m working on my new album now, “Cudder and the Revolution of Evolution” which is due out this Summer. I have an HBO show I have a supporting role in called “How To Make It In America” airing now. I want to do a couple movies this Summer and some touring. I like staying busy. Its not work, it’s fun.

Dom Kennedy-From The Westside With Love (Mixtape)

The mixtape is finally out from Dom Kennedy, there's been much hype going around about how good it is. I actually just listened to it a minute ago and all the hype for sure keeps its word. The first time i heard Dom was when Chuck Inglish produced a song called "Hard Work" for him and from there on out i was a Dom Kennedy Fan no doubt. Residing from LA he is a true upcoming artist so take a listen and spread his talents.

SXSW 2010 Recap.

SXSW 2010 Recap. from Shawn Winston on Vimeo.

This year's SXSW was absolutely insane, with meeting so many Artist that i look up to and seeing shows that were just out of control this year was for a good strong week of music. Its a full week of non-stop fun downtown and if you play it right you don't get any sleep at all. Some don't really get the whole music scene, but to many it's a way to get away from everything and just have fun. The video can explain so much more than what i can say about SXSW so please enjoy.
