A black member of the Crips gang who smokes a lot of pot and causes words to rhyme, an important talent garnering him millions of dollars and a life of luxury. He also was charged with (but acquitted of) killing some guy in a gang dispute and is always being arrested on drug or weapons charges everywhere he goes.

He also created and popularized his own dialect of Ebonics.

Snoop's dialect of Ebonics

The second syllable of some words in a sentence (nouns, adverbs and adjectives, primarily) are dropped and replaced with "izzle" or alternately "izzy."

"Anyway, gentlemen, I'm going to go converse with that young lady over there and perhaps acquire her telephone number. Perhaps she'll be interested enough in me to retire to my abode where we shall have tea and crumpets and chat about current events. Right-right. Good evening."
