Doc was the main writer for Dre and Eazy during their NWA years (along with Cube)…continued penning for Dre on the Chronic…and had his own platinum selling star turning solo album before his career was derailed due his accident…all before Snoop’s first album…however you want to frame his work writing for Snoop on Doggystyle, it definitely wasn’t Snoop “looking out”” for Doc who was a veteran with all kind of accolades, when snoop was still a pup in the game
Now snoop did position BadAzz and whoever whoever else was writing for him after DOC as some “I’m just giving the lil homies a chance” type shyt…but

, yeah aiight…take that as you will
