Given how his smoking habits are just as legendary as his music, it's safe to say when it comes to weed, there are not many individuals who can hold a candle to Snoop Dogg.
But there is one person who even made the Doggfather press pause on a sticky icky session.
During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel back in 2018, Snoop was asked who belongs on the Mt.Rushmore of weed smokers.
The chat show host asked the 51-year-old rap icon, "Seth Rogen was here last week, and we were talking about Mount Rushmore of pot smokers, and of course, you are on. And I think that Seth is on Mt. Rushmore. Who would you put on that Mt. Rushmore?"
Snoop answered with a few big names from history, "I would put Bob Marley. I would put Cheech and Chong they were the first faces on the mountain, they're the ones who showed us what a mountain was."
Snoop Dogg reveals the one person he thinks can outsmoke him:But then there was one legend in particular who stood high, high above the rest.
"Willie P. Nelson is definitely on there. And by the way, Willie Nelson is the only person who has ever outsmoked Snoop Dogg. I had to hit the 'time out' button."
When asked if he had ever hit the time out button before, The D O double G replied, "Never. Never."
During an interview with The Daily Beast, Nelson confirmed the story and explained more about what happened.
"That was over in Amsterdam. I called Snoop and I said, 'Hey buddy, you gotta come over here. This is where it’s at!' So he came over and we hit every bar, every smoke place in Amsterdam. We had a helluva time."
Nelson also commented on his own marijuana usage and the legendary levels he is able to smoke to, to which he replied, "Oh, I don’t know. There are probably people that can outsmoke me! I don’t do a lot of smoking any more. I’ve switched over to a vaporizer because it’s better on my lungs.
"I’ve smoked everything there was. When I was a kid growing up, I smoked grapevine, I smoked cotton leaves, I smoked everything that would burn. I smoked roll-up tobacco. And then I came across marijuana, and I said, 'Wait a minute—I don’t need to drink whiskey no more, I don’t need to smoke cigarettes no more.' In fact, it was about killing me. I’d already had a lung collapse and wasn’t doing so great health-wise, so knew I had to quit something. So, I quit tobacco, I quit alcohol, and I doubled up on the weed."
For both Snoop and Willie, it seems like the weed has had a positive effect, no doubt lending itself to some of the greatest songs ever written by both men. All we need now is for them to record an album together and tour it around the world. Like a modern day Up In Smoke tour, only with more country and Willie Nelson replacing Eminem. Would outsell Eras no doubt. Sorry Swifties.
