He clarified his statement in a later post, addressing Mook directly.
"Yo Mook, I don't think they heard us," he says. "We about to do the something real big for the Hip-Hop battle scene. I'm hosting the BET Hip-Hop Awards again this year, but I got something real special planned this time."
Snoop was invited back as a host after last year's ratings were so high (see what we did there?). The awards are currently schedule to air October 15.
According to Hot New Hip-Hop, Snoop also reached out to several battle rappers on Twitter, asking for their contact information.
