    Snoop is the textbook definition of overstaying one’s welcome. That wannabe rasta shit killed my interest in any that that dude is up to. Watch his documentary “Reincarnated” for some Grade-A cringe 😬

      No one is forcing you to keep up with Snoop.

          So if no one is forcing you to keep up with Snoop, why are you? It sounds like it’s bringing you nothing but unhappiness

      Murder was the case was the last song I enjoyed, everything after that has been pop-celebrity-rap.

        He was appropriating a deeply religious culture, and got called out on it by prevalent figures within said culture, which is why he stopped. He’s a poser.

          Dont forget that he once claimed to be the reincarnation of Bob Marley, even tho Snoop was about 10 when Bob Marley died.

          So if true, Snoop had no soul for 10 years until Bob Marley died and took over.
