Philip Woldemariam: “Murder Was The Case” | MURDERISH Ep. 179

Before becoming America’s weed-smoking darling and Martha Stewart’s bestie, Calvin Broadus Jr., known to the world as Snoop Dogg, was a member of the Crips, a notorious LA-based street gang. Prior to his fateful encounter with super-producer Dr. Dre at age 19, Snoop Dogg faced a bleak future, teetering on the brink of prison or death. Born on the tough streets of Long Beach, California, his earliest years were marked by struggle and strife. It's hard to imagine now, but Snoop Dogg’s career, one that has cemented his status as a global icon, nearly met a premature end. In September 1993, with his highly anticipated debut album, Doggystyle, poised for release, Snoop was arrested in Los Angeles and accused of being an accessory to murder. If convicted, he faced life in prison. On August 25th, Snoop was behind the wheel of a vehicle involved in a deadly shooting that left 20-year-old Ethiopian immigrant, Philip Woldemariam, dead. The question hanging over Snoop and his entourage was stark: was the shooting self-defense, or cold-blooded murder? The answer would rest with a jury, which held the future of a rap superstar in its hands. Follow Jami on Instagram & TikTok @JamiOnAir where she comments on true crime cases and reality TV!
