The “Gin and juice” rapper wrote that he decided to “give up smoke,” after speaking to his family.
“After much consideration and conversation with my family, I’ve decided to give smoke. Please respect my privacy at this time,” he wrote on Instagram and Twitter/X.
The 52-year-old rap icon is known for his love of weed, which he mentions frequently in his rhymes. Fans speculate that Snoop is giving up weed because it’s affecting his health.
Snoop’s official blunt roller went viral when she estimated that she’d rolled 450,000 blunts between 2016 and 2022 in an interview with TMZ.
She later clarified that she rolled that many blunts for Snoop and other clients, but the part about other clients was cut by TMZ.
