Snoop Dogg's Hustlaz: Diary of a Pimp is a mixed hardcore pornography and hip hop music video featuring the music of rapper Snoop Dogg, produced by Hustler Video. The video was also directed,[1] co-produced[2] and presented by Snoop, although he does not feature in any sex scenes.[3] In the film's credits, Snoop is listed under the moniker "Snoop Scorsese".[1] The film was released in 2002, a year after Snoop Dogg set the trend of mixed hip hop porn films with Snoop Dogg's Doggystyle.[3][4]
The film features Snoop hosting a party with more than 40 porn stars.[4] Snoop plays the role of a pimp, who dresses in outlandish outfits, and persuades a prudish journalist to become one of his girls.[3] The film became the top-selling U.S. pornographic film of 2003.[3]
In the same year as the release of Hustlaz: Diary of a Pimp, Snoop Dogg also acted as the host in the Girls Gone Wild show Doggy Style, where he films a Mardi Gras party.[5] After the release of the DVD, two women featured in the film accused Snoop Dogg and other members of the production team of coercing them into participating. Snoop settled his part of the lawsuit and formally severed his professional relationship with Girls Gone Wild, citing the lack of racial diversity (namely the overrepresentation of white women) in their videos.[6][7][8] In response, he suggested producing an alternative version of the show featuring Black and Latina women more prominently, although the plan for a more racially inclusive pornographic special never came to fruition.[6][8]
