Daz Dillinger is speaking candidly about his long-standing issues with Snoop Dogg and the Death Row Records legacy, making it clear that his frustration has never centered around the money — it’s about ownership.
The West Coast rapper and producer, known for his foundational role in shaping the G-funk sound, says the real battle began early on when attempts were allegedly made to withhold royalties. From that point forward, Daz says his mission became singular: reclaiming his rights.
According to Daz, money was never the motivation. “Keep the money,” he insists — he’s earned that already. For him, true value lies in controlling the work and legacy he helped create. He believes that ownership guarantees longevity, opportunity, and — when the business is handled correctly — financial return. “Once you own your rights,” he explains, “the money will always follow.”
Daz also pointed to a pattern he’s noticed over the years, claiming that people who get close to Snoop eventually face fallout or become “guilty by association.” His comments add another layer to the ongoing conversation around rights, royalties, and the often complicated histories tied to one of hip-hop’s most iconic labels.
As discussions around artist ownership intensify across the music industry, Daz is reminding the culture of something he believes should never be negotiable — control of your creations and the legacy attached to them.
