Snoop Dogg, the undisputed king of chill vibes and West Coast anthems, decided to bring the izzle to Donald Trump’s inaugizzle. Yes, you read that right—Snoop, the same guy who once metaphorically roasted Trump harder than a Thanksgiving turkey, hit the stage at an event leading up to the big day.
For context (or lack thereof), the 78-year-old president-elect is gearing up for another round in the Oval Office, set to be sworn in on January 20. And what better way to kick off the festivities than with a performance by the man who once pretended to shoot a Trump lookalike wearing a clown mask? Makes total sense, right?
Snoop Drops Beats and Jaws at the Crypto Ball
Friday night (January 17) was the Crypto Ball, because apparently, even politics has to dabble in digital currencies now. The event, held in Washington, DC, featured Snoop as both DJ and performer. According to Fox News, he dropped some of his iconic tracks while attendees dropped their jaws at the sheer irony of it all. Joining Snoop was rapper Rick Ross, presumably there to provide moral support or at least help navigate the surreal vibes.
A History of Snoop vs. Trump: The Roast Chronicles
For those just tuning in, Snoop hasn’t exactly been Trump’s biggest fan over the years. Back in 2016, he called out the former reality star and Kanye West for—you guessed it—racism. A year later, he dropped a music video where he quite literally pulled a toy gun on a Trump doppelgänger dressed like a clown. And let’s not forget his 2020 declaration that he was voting for the first time, adding, “And no, it ain’t for him.”
So, What Changed?
The million-dollar question: why the sudden change of heart? Did Trump slide into Snoop’s DMs with some fire emojis and an invite he couldn’t refuse? Did Snoop get promised unlimited snacks at Mar-a-Lago? Or is this just the latest chapter in the sitcom that is 2025?
Whatever the case, one thing’s for sure: this performance has left us scratching our heads harder than a DJ scratches records. Stay tuned because in today’s world, truth is stranger than fiction. And apparently, it’s also a lot funnier.
