“That Was My Girl”- Snoop Dogg Reflects On His Bond With Queen Elizabeth II

By

Years after her passing, American iconic rapper Snoop Dogg has emotionally reflected on his bond with the longest-reigning monarch of Britain, Queen Elizabeth II.

The rapper touched on his relationship with the late British monarch in an interview on UK’s Capital FM when he sat down for tea at the posh Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park Hotel in London with interviewer Jordan North.

Speaking during the interview, the “Gin and Juice’ hitmaker said ” I’ll go by the palace, see if they let me in,” presumably referring to Buckingham Palace.

Replying to Snoop Dogg, North said, “Well, I’ve heard the future king, William, is a huge Snoop fan.”

“Well, the Queen was a fan too,” Snoop remarked, adding, “Rest in peace to the Queen, that was my girl. You know what I’m saying? So, just may want to go up and, you know, see what you do.”

The Capital FM interview was not the first platform Dogg reflected on his special bond with the late Queen as in 2015, he revealed in an interview with The Guardian that she had intervened in his deportation from the United Kingdom. Calls for the rapper to be deported from the UK while touring in 1994 had heightened before the queen’s intervention.

“When they tried to kick me out of England, the Queen made a comment that her grandbabies loved Snoop Doggy Dogg, and he had done no wrong in the U.K., so she gave me permission to be here,” he shared.

Snoop added, “Those grandbabies grew up to be Prince William and Harry, so I had influence on them, and they had influence on their grandmother, which enabled me to get into this beautiful country. They love my music, and it is what it is. There’s mutual love and respect.”
