"Only issue me and Mike had was we was at, what was that thing? Ed Hardy, Christian Audigier. He had an event in Vegas where they have all the clothes and all of that, so he had performers. He had Michael Jackson perform, Snoop Dogg perform, but where he messed up, he put Michael Jackson dressing room right next to Snoop Dogg, so Snoop Dogg is there doing this [smoking a joint]."
Snoop went on to reveal he ended up blowing some of his smoke into Jackson's dressing room and the singer - who died in 2009 - wasn't happy about it. He added, "They like, 'You know, Michael Jackson's dressing room is next door.' I'm like, 'No it ain't.' They like, 'Yeah, there', so I'm like, 'Hold on. Open the door' ... [I blew smoke in] ... He's right there looking at me ... He said, 'Snoop, don't do that.' "

"It was like some peaceful, a whole lot of artists on it record. He called me one night and it was crazy because the way his voice came through the phone, he was like, 'Snoop, it's Mike. I have this song I want you to get on.' I'm like, 'Man, anything you want, Mike. It ain't no problem. Talk to me.' "
"Then, after we got past the song, he was like, 'My mom always said that you look like someone in my family. I think we're related,' " Snoop concluded. "I kind of want to hear it [the lost song]."
