Wow.... Do you know him personally???? Or did you come to this decision just by what you've heard?

Next time say what you really feel. Don't hold back.

Based on police records of rape charges, drug charges, murder charges, witness intimidation charges, wife beating, girlfriend beating. A fine upstanding spokesman for our trucks.

So you based your opinion on what you've seen & heard huh? A fancy commercial with a golf cart and all is forgiven. Just what you have seen today that's the only thing that matters right? Just what you know right now.

Snoop Dog is a gangster that has been shuckin and jiving, pimping and bribing, foul rap crapping his way into pop culture from the streets for decades. His songs have disgusting lyrics calling for killing cops, rapping hos, killing yourself with drugs has posioned many kids in the inner cities of this country. I for one call a spade a spade. He is worthless human debris of the WORST kind.

Well, I think that it's safe to say that DC isn't trying to target this audience- especially Geico...

To this Snoopy commercial I just say "WHAT EVER, IT'S THEIR MONEY", but as far as not having any good commercials, I love those Hemi ones. Some of those are the funniest commercials have have seen in years. Those two fools need to make a movie.

Of course that's not his given name, it's Calvin Broadus.
(no, I have no idea how I knew this, I can't stand Rap or R&B or whatever else they're calling it these days)

Don't think a rapper by that name would sell many records, so he changed it.

I think it's genius marketing by Chrysler.

You have Lee Iacoca,
only the generally old will remember he used to head up Chrysler, so you have the 50-75 year old market.

Then you have Snoop,
what better demographic to sell to than the urban youth with lots of disposable cash from his/her drug dealing and 7-11 robbing.

Funny how you don't dispute the other charges, the question is you think makes a good spokesman for a car company? Rap songs about killing cops, murder, drugs, woman beating, AND rape??

About your comment I'm not so sure rape is a funny thing, but hey, what ever floats your boat. I'm sure she "deserved" it, the beating too. I found this article "amusing".

Snoop Dogg Sued Over Alleged Rape
Tuesday February 01, 2005 @ 04:00 PM
By: ChartAttack.com Staff

Snoop Dogg Charged with Rape.

A former make-up artist for Snoop Dogg (a.k.a. Calvin Broadus) is suing the performer over an alleged 2003 rape. The woman applied Broadus’ make-up when he spent four days in January of that year guest-hosting the late-night TV show Jimmy Kimmel Live in Los Angeles. She claims that, while at a dressing room party following the final show, Broadus and several members of his entourage gave her drugged champagne that left her immobile, and then they raped her. The suit also alleges that one of the rapper’s associates beat her. A counter suit filed by Broadus acknowledges a Police report taken concerning the alleged rape.


Makes me want to run out and buy a new truck.

If the commerical wasn't bad enough did you get a load of his golf swing Nearly fell out of the chair. When was the last time you have seen snoop in daimler product...... never like he is going to get into a 300m when has a couple bentley's( that's a assumption being all rappers drive bentley or comparable because they all work so hard for their money they have to show it off )

Clearly the commercial is... well it is what it is...

I think the DC is just trying to get a piece of the "gray" money out there. You know the high income of the nice young men on street corners, with "do rags", the ones I'd put in the same category as "little sheet heads", guarding light poles and trafic signs. The dog person in the clip may appeal to them.
