Every week on the new E! series Father Hood, Snoop Dogg takes you into the mundane shiznit of being both a family man and a potty-mouthed hip-hop icon. Due to an unfortunate TiVo error, here’s our seventh Rock Reality Recap a few days late:
Thirty Minutes in Three Sentences: In preparation for a film about the first black hockey team, Snoop decides to introduce his kids to the skating rink with the help of the Anaheim Ducks. Choc’s daughter decides she wants to be the next Rihanna, and Snoop gives her a lesson about taking baby steps toward her dream. After getting iced one too many times, Snoop’s family abandons the “it’s like football on ice” disaster for a good ‘hood-fashioned roller derby. (Those are popular on reality shows this week.)
Kin and Juice: Snoop’s boys are play-fighting in the living room, and Rook takes one to the face with less “ball till you fall” and more “bawl and a fall.” Snoop engages in some “boy-talk,” giving his son more than a hard time for crying and advising him, “when you act like it don’t hurt, it don’t hurt.” To teach them about real fighting, Snoop takes his kids to the hockey rink to skate on “that one little blade” with the Anaheim Ducks. Hockey may be a rough sport, but Snoop tells Choc it’s show biz that’s a “dirty game.”
It’s a Doggy Dogg World: At the hockey rink’s first ever Snoop on Ice, the MC clings to the edge of the rink and baby steps his way to one goal. Based on the logic that there’s no ice skating in the ‘hood, Snoop decides to make up for his lack of grace on the ice by taking the crew to a roller derby, and dressing up in an afro and tight Seventies pants. Still he crashes and burns, taking his daughter out with him. Choc also gets a singing lesson from Keyshia Cole, who informs Snoop’s little princess that she only has problems with low notes. And high ones. And some of the ones in between. Later, Snoop meets the revered Willie O’Ree, the one-eyed first black hockey player, who Snoop promptly dubs “one-eyed Willie.”
Snoopism of the Day: “Step Yo Game Up.” Snoop says this motivational Snoopism means that if you’re making five dollars per hour, try to make it twenty. Snoop is so confident at stepping his own game up, he says he could probably run for president —”if I didn’t have those gun cases and those dope cases.” Next week Snoop takes his kids back to Long Beach and revisits the high school steps where his rapping career began.
