Famous hip-hop artist and longtime weed addict Snoop Dogg has asked to be left alone and said he wants to stop smoking.
Snoop wrote on Instagram and X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday that he was going to stop smoking. He stated, “After giving it a lot of thought and talking with my family, I’ve decided to quit smoking.” “Please give me some privacy right now.”
The rapper and businessman has been involved in a number of marijuana-related businesses over the years. A week after his name was linked to a new substance that is similar to marijuana, he made a short comment but didn’t say anything else. The AP tried to get Snoop’s camp to speak on Friday, but they didn’t answer right away. It’s Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr., which is Snoop’s real name.
Fans were shocked by Snoop’s choice, but there was still a lot to talk about in the comments.
Some people think that Snoop will either try a different type of THC in the future or start a new business or marketing campaign. Some people were happy about the news and said they thought Snoop might have chosen to stop smoking for his own health.
Branding and marketing experts say that this kind of backlash is normal when a star says something unexpected, especially if it goes against what people have always thought of them.
He said, “You feel a certain way about this person who is important to you in many ways.” Americus Reed II is a marketing professor at the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania. “That is, you are going to make up a story in your head about why this pivot might have happened.”
Reed said that “letting the world fill the silence” can be dangerous because you can’t control the story without more details. It also builds up excitement in case a big news is coming soon.
Reed thinks that Snoop will soon say more about this reveal, either to put an end to the rumours or to build on it for possible future projects, especially in the growing cannabis business, which includes more than just smoking. Consumables and alcoholic drinks with flavourings added are two popular examples.
When it comes to his longtime love of weed, Snoop Dogg has never been shy. His own weed brand, Leafs by Snoop, is one of the many drug businesses he has started over the years. The rapper and his longtime friend Martha Stewart have worked together on a number of projects that are connected.
BIC EZ Reach Lighters said last week that Snoop and Stewart would be putting out a limited edition bag and lighter set called “Best Buds Bags.”The company said in a news release that it “ensures that owners are always equipped to light hard-to-reach places, no matter what they’re lighting.”
