Snoop Dogg says he’s ‘in his prime’ as he nears 50

Snoop Dogg, 49, rose to fame in 1992 when he featured on Dr. Dre’s debut solo single and subsequent album.

But despite almost 30 years in the industry, 17 studio albums and countless awards, Snoop isn’t ready to reminisce.

The 49-year-old rapper told Daily Mail Australia: ‘I don’t keep track or take stock. I’ll look back on my stats when the season ends, but for now I’m in my prime.’

Snoop also shared the sage advice he lives by, and encourages others to do the same: ‘I always tell people to be themselves. Don’t put on airs for attention.’

The Drop It Like It’s Hot hit-maker has recently been lending his famous face to numerous ad campaigns, with SodaStream becoming the star’s latest collaboration. 

The 2020 holiday campaign is all about life’s small and simple pleasures, and Snoop says he’s got one small pleasure in particular: ‘It’s all natural and comes from mother earth. It’s green and herbal.’

The biggest SodaStream global campaign to date features the hip-hop legend encouraging people to focus on the small, but important things in life.

Snoop said: ‘I love my SodaStream, so it was natural for me to partner up with them for this campaign. They make a great product and a big difference in the world. I’m happy to help spread the love!’

There are strange and comedic hallucinogenic moments in the clip, where Snoop talks with an animated turtle about saving the planet.

One reusable SodaStream bottle can save-up thousands of single-use plastic bottle from ending up in the environment or landfill. 

He also sits down with a faux family for dinner, who share an uncanny likeness of his own face – including the pet dog.  

For the holidays, Snoop says his family like to ‘keep it simple’ with a ‘big dinner and some games with the fam’.

‘I definitely got a couple of ugly sweaters over the years,’ Snoop joked.
