Snoop Dogg Says Pharrell Got So High He Had to Produce Stevie Wonder Alone
Snoop Dogg, known for liking weed, remembered a time when Pharrell Williams out-smoked him. He said they were in a small studio with Stevie Wonder in 2015, all smoking. Pharrell got really high from the secondhand smoke.
Then Stevie was in the recording booth, and Pharrell couldn’t say anything. Stevie was trying to figure out what to do. This was shared in a Rolling Stone interview on October 24.
“Me, Pharrell and Stevie Wonder was in the studio. We smoking,” the “Gin and Juice” artist, 52, told rapper Latto of the 2015 recording session in a Rolling Stone interview published on Tuesday, October 24. “We in a little-ass room. Pharrell’s done got high, he got secondhand smoke. Now Stevie in the booth and Pharrell ain’t saying s–t. Stevie in that motherf–ker trying to figure out what to do.”
Snoop said Pharrell was really high and left Stevie alone in the recording booth without any guidance. Then Snoop had to step in and try to tell Stevie what to do, even though he’s not a producer. He ended up telling Stevie to just play anything, and Stevie finished the session without Pharrell. Snoop has collaborated with Pharrell and 50 Cent on many songs before.

“He leaves Stevie in the booth and don’t give him no direction.” Suddenly, the Doggfather found himself having to guide the 73-year-old Motown legend.
“I’m trying to tell Stevie what to do. I don’t know what the f–k to do. I’m not a producer,” continued Snoop, who has worked with Pharrell, 50, on multiple tracks. The rapper told Wonder to “play anything,” and the famed musician completed the session without Williams.
“When we finished, Pharrell took all of the good s-t that he played. Because he was playing harmonica, singing, and it ended up working. But it was funny to me that this n-ga been around me this long, but today he finally gets so high that he leaves Stevie in there,” Snoop added.
