| Short Synopsis: | “Last Dance with Mary Jane” is Snoop Dogg’s cover of the 1993 song “Mary Jane’s Last Dance” by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. It was released on Snoop’s album Missionary through Death Row Records, Aftermath Entertainment and Interscope Records. Produced by Dr. Dre, the track incorporates Petty’s vocals and harmonica by permission of his family and with Petty’s own enthusiastic endorsement to sample the song before his passing in 2017. The semi-autobiographical story, centered on Snoop Dogg’s lifelong relationship with cannabis, is an exploration of personal choice, social injustice, racial disparities, as well as the struggles of growing up in America’s inner cities. The story follows Snoop as he flies into a surreal world and experiences growing up again, recapturing his different looks throughout his life and career, before ending the video back in the doctor’s office with a blunt decision. |
