At USC’s business school commencement, Snoop Dogg gave the Class of 2025 life advice straight from his playbook: “Stay humble, stay hungry, stay true.” The hip-hop icon, who rose from poverty to become a global mogul, shared hard-earned lessons about success.
“Never forget where you came from,” he urged, stressing humility. “Keep that fire,” he added, emphasizing relentless drive. Most importantly, he told graduates: “The world needs originals, not copies.”
Snoop’s message cut through typical graduation clichés. His own career—from “Drop It Like It’s Hot” to becoming a business and media powerhouse—proves the power of authenticity. For students entering competitive fields, his advice offers a real edge: success comes from combining hustle with staying true to yourself.
As Snoop put it: “Nobody can do you better than you.” In a world full of followers, that’s the ultimate graduation gift.
