Worthington worked with Snoop on a number of occasions over the years in the capacity of a tour manager and business partner. He also ventured into his own hip-hop career and joined the short-lived group, Lifestyle. “When I put the [Lifestyle] album out, I was putting everything in the music together," Worthington explained to Vice in 2016. "My guy was a great rapper and I was a great rapper, but I was like 'why am I working on the music? I should be doing all the business side of this thing.' I love meeting people, talking business, that got me going. That made me feel like another person.” Be on the lookout for further updates on Snoop Dogg on HotNewHipHop.
