Snoop Dogg’s reputation as a free spirit who will do anything for a check has proven true. The rapper performed at the Crypto Ball in Washington D.C., an exclusive social event ahead of Donald Trump’s inauguration. The event was meant to praise Trump’s support for cryptocurrency, with tickets reportedly selling for over $5,000.
Videos surfaced online showing Snoop DJing to a crowd dressed in tuxedos, singing his own songs and covers like Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin'”. This move has sparked outrage from some fans who remember Snoop criticizing Trump in the past. However, it’s not a shock given his past statements, including telling The Times last year that he had “nothing but love and respect for Donald Trump”.
Snoop is not alone in performing at Trump’s inaugural events, with Carrie Underwood, Village People, and Nelly also set to perform. In other news, Snoop recently released his collaborative album with Dr. Dre, Missionary.
