Beef Between Snoop & Eastsidaz (Snoop runs up a mountain 2 escape lmao)
A rift has opened between Snoop Dogg and his one time protégé's, Tha Eastsidaz. According to the group, Snoop never paid the group royalties on two platinum selling records. The group alleges that after they hired accounting firm Moss Adams LLP, the same accounting firm that Snoop uses, they discovered that they were owed in excess of $1 million dollars. "I won't allow nobody to take my hard earned money," Tray Dee said. "If you want to take something, let's go head up and winner take all." The group said that they were given a royalty rate of 2 percent and when they confronted Snoop about the unpaid money, he allegedly claimed that no money was made on their self titled debut and the follow up, "Duces 'N' Trayz...The Old Fashioned Way". After the audit, The Eastsidaz allege they found that Snoop had charged them $142,000 for two gold chains worn during the "G'd Up" music video. The group claims the chains were gifts and that ten other people were given chains as well.
Tray Dee maintains that Snoop agreed to give Tha Eastsidaz their own record label to release their third album through TVT Records and that Snoop would contribute three songs to the album at no cost. Tha Eastsidaz say that they are still waiting for Snoop and claim that his silence is "an attempt to sabotage Tha Eastsidaz project."
Earlier this month the group says Tray Dee went to Snoop's house to return the gold chains and to again ask for the back royalties. According to the group, security was alerted and Snoop "ran out the back door, hopped the fence, fell, busted his lip and ran into the mountains. The security guards opened fire on Tray Deee and left the premises before police could arrive, leaving Snoop alone on the mountain." "Let's show the fans who you really are," Tray Dee continued. "Quit running like a coward behind your security.
