Snoop Dogg recently shared a wise lesson he learnt about the value of surrounding oneself with bright and smart people in an Instagram post.
He learned the lesson from Parrish Smith of the venerable hip-hop group EPMD.
Smith used the expression “steel sharpening steel,” which refers to how individuals develop and advance when they are among others who are strong and knowledgeable.
Snoop Dogg agreed with this notion and declared he wanted to be the “dumbest” member of his squad. He emphasized that even though he is the least informed person in his group, he is surrounded by very talented and accomplished people.
Collaborations with outstanding musicians have characterized Snoop Dogg’s career, demonstrating his dedication to quality and keeping hip-hop culture at the fore.
The importance of one’s inner circle in attaining success on both a personal and professional level is vital according to the rapper.
