Snoop Dogg has opened up about the time he got Pharrell so high during a studio session that he accidentally “left” Stevie Wonder on his own.
The West Coast rap legend was unveiled as the cover star of Rolling Stone‘s November issue alongside Latto on Tuesday (October 24) as part of the publication’s Musicians on Musicians shoot.
During his conversation with the “Big Energy” rapper, Snoop recalled the intoxicated — and inadvertently hilarious — session with Skateboard P and Stevie, which he called one of his favorites.
“I got so many [favorite studio sessions],” he began. “One that stand out to me is when me, Pharrell, and Stevie Wonder was in the studio.
“We smoking. We in a little-ass room. Pharrell’s done got high, he got secondhand smoke. Now Stevie in the booth and Pharrell ain’t saying shit. Stevie in that muthafucka trying to figure out what to do.”
Snoop continued: “I’m like, ‘Pharrell, produce this n-gga.’ This n-gga’s so high, he leaves Stevie in the booth and don’t give him no direction. And I’m trying to tell Stevie what to do. I don’t know what the fuck to do. I’m not a producer. I told the n-gga, ‘Just play anything.’
“When we finished, Pharrell took all of the good shit that he played. Because he was playing harmonica, singing and shit, and it ended up working.”
He added: But it was funny to me that this n-gga been around me this long, but today he finally gets so high that he leaves Stevie in there. They left a n-gga in there, where he had to walk out by himself. Shout-out my n-gga, Stevie.”
The three artists collaborated on “California Roll,” the opening track on Snoop’s Pharrell-produced BUSH album that came out in 2015.
The Death Row owner and Neptunes hitmaker previously worked together on hits like “Beautiful,” “Signs” and “Drop It Like It’s Hot.”
