I've never heard that one. I know that nephews can sometimes be older than their uncles, but Bootsy is old enough to be Snoop's Dad, I doubt if he would be Snoop's nephew.

I think that Jauqo is right; however IMDB is a strong reputation for fact-checking.

If he is, that would sure explain a lot. I never thought Snoop was particularly talented, as a rapper or as a producer/writer. Although he has a distinctive voice and definitely has style, if this explains some kind of in-circle introduction, that would make sense to me.

Bootsy called Snoop nephew on one of his songs, but that was just a rappin thang. Like calling someone you know cuz, or bro.
