By KELLI KENNEDY Associated PressMIAMI BEACH, Florida. — Rapper Snoop Dogg furiously stirred flour into a creamy bechamel sauce, a whisk in one hand and a microphone in the other during a cooking demonstration with chef Guy Fieri. He tossed herbs into the mac and cheese and spicy wing dishes with the dramatic flair of Emeril Lagasse, raising his hands in the air, spinning around after taste tests and occasionally singing lines from songs like "Drop It Like It's Hot" as a crowd cheered wildly. Wearing black shades, his dreads in a ponytail, the pioneering rapper rushed off the cooking stage and emerged 20 minutes later at a nearby beachside DJ booth, also part of the recent South Beach Wine & Food Festival, spinning tunes, including many of his own, while a stagehand passed out joints to the sweaty, enthusiastic crowd. Snoop may seem an unlikely guest for a festival where highbrow foodies come for $500-a-plate dinners to mingle with chefs like Jose Andres and Daniel Boulud, but it's emblematic of the widening intersection between food and music that Snoop and other rappers and hip-hop stars are capitalizing on, where unlikely pairings form shows like VH1's "Martha & Snoop's Potluck Dinner Party" and rappers like 2 Chainz drop cookbooks along with their albums.
