His dressing room was placed next to Jackson’s, according to the Long Beach native. An innocent oversight would lead to an awkward encounter when Snoop, well-known for his fondness for marijuana, began inhaling it in preparation for his performance.
The King of Pop’s dressing room was right next door, according to him, as the smoke filled the air.
“They like, ‘You know Michael Jackson dressing room next door.’ Like, ‘No it ain’t.’ They like, ‘Yeah it is.’ I’m like, ‘Hold on,’” he recalled.
Seeing Jackson in the dressing room next door, Snoop decided to check it out for himself. He opened Jackson’s door and continued smoking his weed before seeing MJ standing just a few feet away.
“[Michael was] right there looking at me. He said, ‘Snoop, don’t do that.‘”
The unheard song with Michael that Snoop released.
Snoop brought up an interesting bit of trivia about a previously unreleased collaboration with Jackson during his conversation with Cohen. Cohen asked the artist about the whereabouts of the recording and whether fans would ever hear it. A bunch of other musicians were involved in the charity project, which was intended as a global peace anthem.
Jackson reportedly reached out to Snoop, requesting him to do his big one on the track.
“He called me one night, and it was crazy because the way his voice came through the phone,” he shared. He was like, ‘Snoop, it’s Mike. I have this song I want you to get on.’ I’m like, ‘Man, anything you want, Mike. It ain’t no problem. Talk to me.’”
Snoop hinted that he wasn’t entirely sure what happened to the tune, let alone if he still had it. He was determined to find out. During the phone call, their exchange became even more intriguing to the Dogg Father when Jackson made an unexpected comment, which surprised the Dogg Father.
“Then, after we got past the song, he was like, ‘My mom always said that you look like someone in my family. I think we’re related.‘”
