Snoop Dogg recently sat down with The Fader and spoke about his grooming practices, including his controversial manicures. The West Coast legend explained that getting manicures and his hair done is all part of the pimp game.
"The game is this, though: a real pimp focuses [on making] sure he's manicured, he's pedicured, his hair is done, his face is right, his outfit is cold, his car look good, got a pocket full of money, conversation strong, smell good. These are pimp traits and characteristics that have been hard for me to relinquish."
While some people would consider manicures to be a feminine activity, Snoop believes that men have feminine traits, and adds that women have masculine traits. The "Drop It Like It's Hot" rapper says that it's ok to tap into these instincts, which he says are a gift from our mothers.
"As males we all have feminine ways, just like women have masculine ways, so it's okay to tap into those inner ways. We have certain characteristics, values and traits that our mothers gave us. I'm a man that can tap into my feminine side and still know that I'm a masculine man with a manicure. Cause it's called a manicure, not a bitchicure."
