Snoop Dogg has found himself in hot water for smoking weed around his grandchildren.
The West Coast rap legend posted a clip on Instagram on Wednesday (February 21) of himself in a recording studio surrounded by his granddaughters as he smoked a blunt.
The video was widely condemned in the comments section, with Snoop being criticized for smoking the drug around infant children.
One commenter said: “Nobody and I do mean NOBODY smoking around my babies.”
Another added: “Like Serioisly … Is there a blunt in his hand in front of the grand babies? Come man, damn.”
Someone else commented: “Burning with the kids ????”
The 52-year-old rapper has yet to respond to the backlash.
Fellow cannabis connoisseurWiz Khalifa recently confessed that his son probably smells like weed.
Talking about attending school meetings stoned, Wiz said: “Hell yeah, I’m pulling up stoned. They expect it. They know what’s up. It’s not like back in the day where you’re considered a bad parent if you smell like weed.
“I’m pretty sure my son smells like weed. Like, I don’t know because I can’t smell it, but I’m pretty sure he smells like pot.”
Snoop Dogg had previously said he was quitting smoking but it turned out to be a publicity stunt for a brand of fire pits he was endorsing.
“Announcement: I’m giving up smoke,” Snoop said in an ad he shared on his Instagram page last year. “I know what you thinking — ‘Snoop, smoking’s kind of your whole thing.’ But I’m done with it. Done with the coughing and my clothes smelling all sticky-icky. I’m going smokeless.”
He captioned the ad: “I’m done with smoke. I’m going smokeless with @solostove.”
Meek Mill also claimed to be following Tha Doggfather’s lead in giving up the drug.
“Ima go to Dubai and completely stop smoking,” he wrote on social media. “ima follow snoop, my doctor said I got a lil bit emphysema in a chest if I don’t stop smoking it cuts my lifeline in half.
“I was addicted to the nicotine and this new weed got too many chemicals and too risky to play with my mental!”
Can’t buy class. I know pot is legal, but I wouldn’t be smoking tobacco around kids in an indoor location.
Who cares? My mom smokes rocks in front of me all the time, ever since I was a child. And I turned out normal
Gen lord? You only think you’re normal because you’re a mentally deficient crack baby. I’ve seen your comments here. You’re anything but normal.
That’s dropping some facts, Fax 🙂
Last time I checked, voters legalized weed in California. So now they nitpicking BS ? All I see in the video is two happy grandchildren enjoying the music. Yall act like its any different from some older white grandfather smoking his popeye style pipe with tobacco. Fucking milenials and their soft shit.
Eh. I personally see a difference. Smoking a blunt around children reminds me of taking shots of liquor in front of em. A beer? Okay. A cig? Outdoors, okay, not indoors.
Yeah, and Cali also allows sexualized drag shows got children and men to walk around with their dicks put at pride parades. Doesn’t make it appropriate. Adults? Idc. Children? No.
Weed is legal some states. I have homies that use this excuse to blaze wherever with their kids around. The only thing I support in this scenario is blaze outdoors. 2nd hand smoke is not it. Before I quit cigarettes, I’d smoke on the low outside. And go refreshen afterwards. And once my kids were asleep. How you going to lead but not be an example? I did eventually. And besides, who cares about Snoop anymore? Where tf is the missionary album? Another detox phantom courtesy of Aftermath/Interscooe “keeping us in the news” strategy? And Ambrosia (or however tf her names spelled) album? Y’all condemned the likes of M.C. Hammer back in the day but support snoop’s bs? Sold out dude with only his smoking habits keeping his name in the news. Snoop. Grow up. All your contemporaries and younger artists onto ventures. You’re like the Carrot Top (Google him young’ns) of rap.
Y’all a bunch of hoes. It’s weed. Shut the fuck up.
You sound like you need some weed and help with your electrical bill or something. damn.
The joint isn’t even lit. LOL!
