*Dionne Warwick, disillusioned by the violence, misogyny, and drug culture glorified in gangster rap, invited rappers including SNOOP DOGGS and SUGE KNIGHT to her home. She asked, “Call me a crazy bitch. When you get married and your daughter asks why you made this kind of music, what will you say?”
Snoop Dogg reflected on the experience, saying “We have influence now, but Warwick has always been and will continue to be an influential figure. We were outganged.”
Dionne also responded in an interview to a host who said, “It’s the power of Dionne Warwick,” by stating, “It was the power of Respect.”
