Snoop Dogg went to Apple Music and discussed his work with Dr. Dre on the Missionary album. In conversation with Zane Lowe, Snoop revealed how Dre gets to work.

“He knows exactly what he wants,” Snoop said. “You may not hear it, you may not know exactly what it is or you may feel like he’s making you do unnecessary things or repetitive things. But once it’s all finished, he needs what he needs to create the masterpiece. And his ear and his brain is a little bit different than ours, so he don’t hear or see what we hear or see in the studio.”

He added, “Back in the days, it was more like we was doing it together, because we was both learning. And it was more about me writing for him, writing for myself, and trying to paint a picture of what I thought he should be and what he should sound like. And then you speed the clock up to now, you got him writing for me, and painting a picture for me on what I should be and what I should sound like.”
