Snoop Dogg has spoken up following the uproar caused by his performance at Donald Trump’s ‘Crypto Ball’ earlier this month.

Why Fans Are Upset with Snoop Dogg

Fans of Snoop Dogg were not entirely happy when they found out that he chose to perform for the former president. Many remembered his critical stance against Trump when Snoop publicly voiced his opposition to him back in 2017.

Previously, Snoop Dogg declared that he would unreservedly mock anyone who decided to perform at Trump’s inauguration. His music video for ‘Lavender’ even featured a clown dressed as Trump.

Nevertheless, Snoop’s recent decision to perform at the ‘Crypto Ball’ indicates a shift in his perspective regarding the Republican figure. His choice led to criticism, with some stating it was culturally inappropriate and lamenting what they saw as a disappointing move.

Snoop Dogg’s Response to the Backlash

As the waves of criticism rolled in, Snoop took to his Instagram to shed light on his decision. Standing his ground, he proudly emphasized, “I’m still 100 percent Black,” and encouraged people to focus on their own happiness instead of judging his.

He stressed that mutual support is crucial within the community, urging others to lift each other up instead of tearing down what they’ve built.

Despite his explanation, many of his longtime followers voiced their disappointment in his actions. One heartbroken fan even shared how much it hurt to see him aligned with Trump, while another reiterated they felt “ZERO HATE JUST DISAPPOINTMENT.”

Support from Fans

Amidst the criticism, some fans provided encouraging words, declaring their unwavering support for Snoop. They pointed out that his legacy and identity should not be confined to any political association, but rather celebrated for who he is.

For them, Snoop remains an iconic figure irrespective of whom he chooses to perform for.
