    He got stripped of all cred the day he performed at Fat Loser Weaker Hitler’s inauguration.

    This isn’t even celebrity news at this point.

    Disappointing but he won’t be the last rapper who expresses conservative views. Rap as a genre tends towards having materialistic and conservative lyrics so maybe we shouldn’t be surprised.

      It’s mixed. There’s the two major sides of that coin that I would split the style into and one is hyper materialistic and sexualized while the other is full of political commentary and sometimes even talks about mental health problems among other things. Like, while I’m sure you can find examples of both from any one artist there’s for sure a stark difference between Snoop here and A Tribe Called Quest.

    Oh fuck. I saw this and assumed he must be creeping up into his 70s or something. Nope. He’s only got a few years on me. Well, a few years, and a significant amount of weed.

    Being uncomfortable around LGBT I can understand. It’s dumb, you’re dumb, you’re stupid, but I somewhat understand. You’ve been brainwashed for decades and need a minute to adjust… I guess?

    But scared?

    And of all beings, snoop Dogg? Wasn’t he pretending to be a bad ass gangsta rapper?

    Afraid?

    Afraid of two people holding hands?

    Afraid of seeing a woman who might have some manly facial features?

    Afraid of generally just really nice people living their lives?

    Afraid of two (or holy hells, maybe… Even three!??) people that just love each other and live together in the same home and maybe like to do things together in the privacy of their own home that you maybe would not do?

    AFRAID OF WHAT, YOU SHIZZLE FUCK?

      He isn’t afraid of gay people.

      He is afraid of having to have the conversation with his grandkid about gay people having a baby due to the content of a kid’s movie.

      Sort of like how a grandparent would be uncomfortable discussing procreation with their grandkid. Shit, parents are uncomfortable discussing that with their own kids and that is a far easier and more straightforward thing than discussing sperm donors.

      He is scared that a kid’s movie will inspire questions that he is uncomfortable answering as a grandparent.

        Why is the assumption by these people that there is a sexual component required in the explanation? Age appropriate explanations are easy.

        “Know how some families have one mommy and one daddy? Some families have two mommies or two daddies instead.”

        If the kids ask about the actual mechanics of procreation they are old enough to hear something like:

        “Some couples adopt or they find someone to have a baby with who helps them make a family.”

        Was there any need to mention surrogacy or donors? No. Kids don’t need to oversexualize queer people. Adults don’t need to over sexualize queer people! When people are sheltered from our existence until they are in their early teens they tend to think of gay couples as explicitly just sexual relationships rather than romantic or family building ones that are as dynamic as straight relationships because they were introduced to them as a sexual mechanics first kind of way. It’s dehumanizing.

        I remember when old people were boycotting Frozen because it didn’t have the traditional “boy saves the girl” narrative. They thought it would inspire uncomfortable questions from their grandkids.

        Fuck people who think like this.

        Did boss baby raise fears in parents that they might have to explain procreation? If no, then two mothers shouldn’t.

        And just telling a kid that every constellation of parents are possible, it’s just that some matchups are more common than others doesn’t seem like daunting task.

        Reminds me of when Dave Chappelle called his audience poor for booing Musk. Money and the Hollywood bubble changes people. There’s probably a few that can survive, but they need to always be defensive.

    It’s easier to explain how a lesbian couple can give birth to a baby than it is to explain how an invisible man in the sky made someone pregnant 2000 years ago, but it didn’t stop snoop from becoming a born again Christian.

    Aw fuck. Why, man? Just why?

    To those that don’t know, Snoop Dogg has been making a lot of material for kids lately. He has a YouTube channel (called “Doggyland”) designed for preschoolers. That means he actually does have an audience these days, even if they’re far too young for Lemmy.

    I used to think, “Aw cute, becoming a granddad has inspired him to create educational videos. He even gets to explore his new Bow Wizzle fursona!” (I mean.)

    But this, this takes back all the joy. I wouldn’t be surprised if some parents who hear about this decide to unsubscribe and/or block his channel.

    Snoop continued, “I didn’t come here for this shit! I just came to watch the goddamn movie!” He added, “Fuck me, I’m scared to go to the movies. They’re throwing me in the middle of shit that I don’t have an answer for.”

    Sounds like a “You” problem, Snoop.

      he sounds like a 55 year old white woman. putting his head in the sand, cause that sure gonna make everything go away that he doesnt agree with.

      just seen his new video clip yesterday, and its 100% ai generated. looks like he is rather selective about the new world.
