Snoop Dogg fans appalled by rapper’s performance at Trump inauguration party - Lemmy.World

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.

It’s not like he even needs the money, like he was in a desperate situation and it was this gig or lose the farm. Just did it because he doesn’t care and is greedy. Disgusting and disappointing.
Right? And you can’t buy integrity.
Here at Tegridy Farms…
Greed is a hell of a drug. Don’t pretend this guy has principles or morals.
He might very well need the money. People generally evolve spending habits that meet or exceed their incomes, even when those incomes seem impossibly huge by us normal people’s standards.

I’m assuming it has something to do with this
