Murder Was the Case by Snoop Dogg Song Info
"Murder Was the Case" is a 1994 short film and soundtrack album starring Snoop Doggy Dogg. The 18-minute film was directed by Dr. Dre and Fab Five Freddy and chronicles the fictional death of Snoop Dogg and his resurrection after making a deal with the Devil. The song itself tells roughly the same story as the movie, with Snoop making a deal with the devil so that he can see his sweetheart have his baby. Snoop explains that his song “Murder Was The Case” was about a gangsta who was saved by God and instead of doing the right thing, the gangsta does the wrong thing and pays for it. Once again, “Murder Was The Case” was NOT about devil-worshipping or anything like that. He meant for the song to teach a lesson.
