Summary

Snoop Dogg faced backlash from fans after performing at the “Crypto Ball,” a black-tie event celebrating Donald Trump’s upcoming inauguration.

Snoop, who once criticized Trump in his music and public statements, praised him in 2024 and performed his hit “Nuthin’ but a G Thang” at the $2,500-$5,000 per ticket event hosted by tech moguls.

Fans labeled the performance “embarrassing” and “disrespectful,” citing his past anti-Trump sentiments, including a music video and song that mocked Trump during his first term.

      I’m someone who for years has been downvoted for saying so and for pointing out his past gang ties and profiteering off crime, I also get downvoted when I point out Tyson is a rapist piece of shit and to this day wants to cause harm to the woman he raped.

        trump is a rapist, are you as active about your proselytizing about that? Seems your focus may have been exclusively on black people that are bad dudes, maybe that was part of what people were picking up on and down voting.

        Maybe you’re one of those broken clocks.

          Trump isn’t nearly as widely loved and defended for his crimes as Snoop is, as weird as that sounds with MAGA in existence

          I’ve also been downvoted for saying Snoop is a shitstain before and I’ve quite obviously been more vocal about Trump if you look at my account

      Gotta love Trump for being the world’s brightest shit-finding flashlight at least. Snoop can burn in hell with Carrie underwood.
