Ugly Women don’t sell…

Always good for a quote, Snoop talks about R&B singers and video hos. Miss Info doesn’t approve. Full Quotes after the jump….

BET’s Hip-Hop vs. America Writes:

I
seen that sh*t! Bullsh*t! The woman is perceived the way…she is
perceived. It is what it is, man. You gotta look at what hip-hop is.
Hip-hop is not the stories. It’s not a soap opera. Hip-hop is not ‘The
View.’ It’s not…’The Oprah Winfrey Show.’ Hip-hop is what it is. We
have our certain views on women the way we do. It’s like Playboy. Do
anybody got something to say about the way Playboy view women? They
take their shirt off and show their t**ties. That’s the first way to
get into Playboy. You gotta show Hugh Heffner your t**ties if you wanna
get in Playboy. There’s nothing degrading about that, but at the same
time, when we show women in videos, they have their clothes on. We
don’t play videos on BET with women naked; we can’t get away with that.
But it’s degrading what we’re doing, when in actuality, we’re giving
these women a chance to shine. Now, if these women would become
directors and depict women in a different light, then that would give
them a different light as far as the way people view them. A male
director is gonna direct it the way he feels. He’s gonna make it the
way a woman looks sexy.

Look
at this for example. How many ugly women selling records? None! Only
the pretty ones sell records. Beyonce, Mary J, Keyshia Cole, the ugly
ones don’t sell. I ain’t gon say no names, but they don’t sell records.
They just be singing their little hearts out, but they don’t get no
sales, cause they ugly. Now, that’s my fault? I can see this on TV now:
‘Snoop Dogg called me, ugly.’ You beautiful on the inside, baby. What I
wanna say to go on top of that, to the chocolate women, the
dark-skinned women, I love ya’ll.  I got a chocolate daughter at home.
I always tell her chocolate is the best thing in the world. Don’t think
that light skin is in, chocolate ain’t never went nowhere. Black is
beautiful. I love dark-skinned women. That’s why my videos be having
dark women in them. I always used to have light-skinned women. Look at
it. Show them one of my videos.
