The rapper's latest video features a Snoop Loops commercial, Michael Rapaport and a clown mocking president Donald Trump. The concept for  Snoop Dogg 's new video for "Lavender" (Nightfall Remix) -- named after the original  BADBADNOTGOOD   collaboration  featuring  Kaytranada  -- came to its director, YouTube star Jesse Wellens, during a smoking session.

Smoking was not permitted indoors, so the two lit up in the rapper's Sprinter van as Wellens pitched his idea.

With songs like “Johnny B. Goode” and “Roll Over Beethoven,” he gave his listeners more than they knew they were getting from jukebox entertainment.
