EX-DEATH ROW STAFFER REGGIE WRIGHT SAYS SNOOP DOGG GOT THE IDEA FOR HIS FOOTBALL LEAGUE FROM 2PAC.

Snoop Dogg built on 2Pac’s idea of starting a youth football league, according to a former Death Row Records general manager, though the exec still gives the Long Beach MC credit because “he made it happen.”

In a new interview on his platform Bomb1st that premiered on Wednesday (November 29), Reggie Wright Jr. discussed Snoop bringing Pac’s idea to fruition, and how it has positively impacted the communities involved.

“I know Tupac Shakur was the first one talking about that in the ’90s,” Wright explained. “Y’know, [Snoop] might’ve fine-tuned it a little than what Pac initially was talking, but he got that— stole that idea from Pac.”

Still, he made it a point to recognize what the “Vato” MC accomplished, adding: “There’s people in the NFL because of it, there’s a lot of kids that probably stayed off the streets and was playing football and went a different way in life, where they might’ve went the gangbangin’ life or something like that, because of the football league.”
