Snoop Dogg has many titles; rapper, actor, and entrepreneur, to name a few, but the one he loves most of all is grandfather.

The 52-year-old, whose daughter Cori, 24, has been released from the hospital following a ‘severe stroke,’ opened up about his grandchildren when he appeared on the Jennifer Hudson Show to promote his new film.

‘Now, OK, I was trying to imagine Snoop as a granddad. So how many grandkids do you actually have?’ the host asked.

‘Actually, I have a total of 12 grandkids,’ he answered. ’12?’ the Oscar winner repeated.

‘Yes, yes I do. And they’re different ages, ranges, sizes and I love them all the same way.’

Snoop Dogg, 53, shared revealed the cute name that his grandchildren call him on the Jennifer Hudson Show — and he admitted he has 12 grandkids

‘Actually, my oldest grandson, his birthday is today so I’m on my way to his birthday party when I leave here.’ he told the audience.

‘He’s going to be 9 years old, that’s Zion Broadus,’ Snoop explained.  

Jennifer asked the My Family artist what his grandkids called him.

The Doggyland star explained that Zion was the first to come up with a title.

‘He used to call me Papa Noop, because he couldn’t say Snoop, so he started calling me Papa Noop. And then as time went by, he learned how to say Snoop, so now I’m Papa Snoop.’

In an interview with People in June 2023, the Kush rapper spoke about what the endearment meant to him. 

‘Papa!’ That s*** means the world to me for them to call me that because I had a papa,’ he explained.

‘My grandpa was my best friend and for me to be that for my grandkids is showing that I actually did well and I was able to outlive the circumstances.’

The My Family artist said being called Papa ‘means the world to me’ because it was the name he used for his own grandfather. ‘My grandpa was my best friend and for me to be that for my grandkids is showing that I actually did well,’ he explained
