Snoop gave a glimpse into his family life on his E! reality show Snoop Dogg’s Father Hood, which ran for two seasons from 2007 to 2009 and followed Snoop and Shante as they raised their three kids.
Snoop opened up about his role as a dad in a 2015 interview with Today, telling the outlet: “My relationship with my kids is more important than anything. It’s a friendship relationship … it’s based on me being a father, a mentor and a friend.”

“Cordell informed me yesterday that he has decided to pursue other passions in his life — in particular his love of film through his company Film School Productions,” UCLA Coach Jim Mora said in a statement published by the Los Angeles Times. “Cordell is an amazing young man with many talents, and we wish him nothing but the best as he continues to pursue his degree at UCLA.”
After leaving UCLA, Cordell went on to pursue a career in the entertainment industry. He had a small role in the 2012 comedy Mac and Devin Go to High School, which starred Wiz Khalifa and his dad. With his film company, Film School Productions, Cordell now mainly focuses on directing. He’s been working on a documentary called Son of Kings, which will follow his family’s lineage and “the journey of a Black man in America.”
“My whole life I just always heard stories about my family and the legacy that, not only my dad but my grandfather and the ones that came before us. I just always wanted to tell something that I knew, because I took a writing class at UCLA for film and the professor always said, write what you know. I know my family, so I want to start right there in my film career,” he told Women’s Wear Daily in 2020.
“To be honest with you, I’m real critical with my creativity,” he told Women’s Wear Daily. “Through my music, I just want to represent myself and I want to represent individualism. And then just to be unique — I feel like a lot of people are chasing trends or being followers. I feel like when you create, it’s really taking on a leader standpoint and being bold and being brave,” he continued.

“When I was a little girl, my dad used to call me ‘Choc’ because I was sweet and chocolate-colored,” she told Essence in 2022. “And that is what I put in my products that are handmade and filled with love and a touch of sweetness.”
“I would put a scarf on her … and so she wouldn’t feel like she was the only one wearing scarves, we all wore scarves with her to make her feel less alone,” Shante told W Magazine.
