It's the bow to the wow….Snoop Dogg has issued a new warning: Don't dare to compare his lyrics, or any other MC's for that matter, to syndicated radio host Don Imus' recent racial comments about the black women on the Rutgers University women's basketball team. Imus called them "nappy-headed ho's," in addition to other insults. Snoop Dogg admits some of his peers have called women "bitches" and "ho's" in their lyrics, but as the Doggfather put, there is no parallel to what Imus said.

"It's a completely different scenario," said Snoop, barking over the phone from a hotel room in L.A. "Rappers are not talking about no collegiate basketball girls who have made it to the next level in education and sports. We're talking about ho's that's in the 'hood that ain't doing shit, that's trying to get a nigga for his money."

"These are two separate things. First of all, we ain't no old-ass white men that sit up on MSNBC [the cable network home to Imus] going hard on black girls. We are rappers that have these songs coming from our minds and our souls that are relevant to what we feel. I will not let them mutha—-as say we in the same league as him." The D. O. double G. did say, though, that the media needs to treat Imus as it treats some MCs (or football players, even).

"Kick him off the air forever," he said. "Ban him like they did Adam 'Pacman' Jones. They kicked him out the NFL for the whole season for numerous violations of the NFL's personal-conduct policy, including multiple arrests, but this punk gets to get on the air and call black women 'nappy-headed ho's.'
