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.

        Trump was there as well. They probably met many times while raping underage women. Maybe even high fived while doing so.

          I’m confused, Snoop or Jay-Z where? The comment says Jay-Z but the article is about Snoop, are they really close? Did Jay-Z also play at this event?

            It’s only confusing if you’re reading other comments. Both Snoop and Jay-Z were implicated on being on Epstein Island, which was essentially a giant human trafficking tape dungeon for underage women.

              No, the initial comment is just confusing. Why is Jay-Z being mentioned in the first place? He’s not mentioned in the article that was posted and he wasn’t present at the event the article was written about, so what relevance does Jay-Z play in this?
