Snoop Dogg and Daz Dillinger’s strained relationship has hit another bump, with Snoop issuing a sharp warning to his cousin and longtime collaborator about financial repercussions.
The tension arose following remarks from Daz, who accused Snoop of preventing him from producing tracks on Tha Dogg Pound’s 2024 album “W.A.W.G. (We All We Got)” — released under Death Row Records, which Snoop now owns — allegedly for personal monetary benefit.
“Snoop didn’t want me to produce anything on that album because he had a deal with all the producers where he got half of what he gave them,” Daz said in a video posted to his Instagram Stories.
“[Snoop was like] ‘I don’t want Daz producing this, I just want him to be an artist.’ That’s what he wanted me to be on Death Row. He wanted to do a solo album [with me on it] but he didn’t want me to produce it. I mean, God damn! Death Row records stole from me!”

Daz kept voicing his complaints in a clip shared on his YouTube channel, where he accused Snoop Dogg of attempting to claim ownership of his intellectual property. He further alleged that Snoop planned to include it in a supposed billion-dollar deal tied to the rights for Death Row’s catalog.
“The paw is trademarked,” he said, referencing Tha Dogg Pound’s pawprint logo. “Like I told Snoop, you gotta reject it and I gotta accept it. That was the money maker. The paw is like the Apple sign.”
“They tried to go behind my back and trademark all my work and then flaunt it in my face like, ‘Yeah, n-gga. We got it, n-gga. That’s all we wanted ’cause I’m finna sell everything for a billion dollars to Universal.’ But shit, don’t be selling my shit.”
Daz continued: “The muthafucka’s cashing n-ggas out for their catalog … He said, ‘I’ma give everybody back their publishing.’ You lied. You ain’t paid nobody since [you bought Death Row]. You trying to starve n-ggas out, but you can’t starve me out. I just want what’s mine.”
Upon hearing his cousin’s shocking allegations, Snoop Dogg responded with a fiery video shared on social media.
“I see you ain’t got shit to do but hate on me, huh?” he snapped. “In a minute I’ma fuck you up, cuz! On some real shit. Not physically, but business wise. ‘Cause you broke as a muthafucka right now so I’m a fuck you up in a minute, cuz. Leave me alone. Leave me the fuck alone!”
Daz Dillinger responded on Instagram, writing: “HE MAD NOW …NOW HE WANNA FUC ME UP BIZNIZ WISE BY TRYNA STEAL EVERYTHING I OWN THAT WAS ON DEATHROW. BY FORGED SIGNITURE & NOT PAYING ROYALTIES SINCE HE HAD THE LABEL USING OUR ROYALTIES TO PAY HIS STAFF. THEY MAKIN MORE THEN THE ARTIST.”
“I SUED SUGE BACK IN THE DAY. SHOULD I DO THE SAME TO CUZ[?] ITS ALL IN MY NAME THE PUBLISHING NUMBERS DONT CHANGE UNLESS LOL U A THIEF. U CANT STARVE ME OUT IM INDEPENDENT. I RUN MY OWN SHIP ALWAYS HAVE. U LITTLE BBITCH.”
