by Benny Franklin

Snoop Dogg has been in the game for 30 years, but there are still things we don't know about him. 

One of the things we didn't know was that he used to write his raps with a typewriter. 

The Long Beach native was recently a guest on The 85 South Comedy Show, and he revealed the news about the typewriter, and where he got it from. 

“Them the little homies, 2Scoops that was in the group, when I first started writing raps I used to use that n*gga typewriter. I was writing on paper cuz and I would lose my sh*t and this n*gga typewriter was organized. This n*gga had paper organized and shit so I was like, ‘I’m just gonna type my s*it up’ and I used to type like 65 words a minute, n*gga."

Snoop went on to say that he took typing classes at a white junior high school.

"It was a skill I took up at a little white junior high school I went to. They gave a n*gga typing classes and I took it. I was one of them students that I took a wood class, a metal class, I took typing, I took home economics. I took classes that was like different.”
