    After Tekashi’s new single smashed YouTube’s record for the most-watched hip-hop video in a 24-hour span, Snoop rants online, ‘All these media outlets making snitching cool.’
    May 12, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Snoop Dogg implored bosses at streaming service Tidal to “stop pushing” Tekashi 6ix9ine’s new music, as the rapper embarked on a comeback following his release from prison.
    The rapper is currently under house arrest after leaving jail earlier this year to serve the rest of his sentence for gang-related charges of racketeering, firearms offences and drug trafficking in New York at home amid the coronavirus crisis.
    The star, real name Daniel Hernandez, notoriously testified against fellow members of the Nine Trey Gang in February 2019 in exchange for a reduced sentence on racketeering charges, and Snoop is among the many who have lashed out at Tekashi’s attempts to revive his career.
    After dropping new single “Gooba”, which smashed YouTube’s record for the most-watched hip-hop video in a 24-hour span, Snoop commented on an Instagram post shared by Elliott Wilson, Tidal’s chief content officer, “They gotta stop pushing this (rat).”
    “All these media outlets making snitching cool. I’m old school. F**k 69 and everybody pushing his line right now, all New York GZ feel me on this and if you don’f**k u2.”
    Addressing Tekashi’s long-standing feud with Meek Mill, the hitmaker added, “@meekmill if you allow sucka s**t you a sucka. Love you cuz stay sucka free.”

    Tekashi made his much talked about return to the public eye with an Instagram Live session on Friday (May 08), which broke another record after attracting an audience of two million fans.

    Jada Pinkett Smith Dragged Over Snoop Dogg Interview on 'Red Table Talk'

    Facebook Watch

    After the new episode of her Facebook Watch talk show aired, it soon made headlines, but instead of compliments, the wife of Will Smith receives harsh criticism over the interview.
    Feb 27, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Jada Pinkett Smith’s talk show “Red Table Talk” has always succeeded in garnering public attention by bringing the right guests amid hot topics. Recently, she invited rapper Snoop Dogg to discuss his controversial comments about Gayle King as he tried to “protect” Kobe Bryant’s widow Vanessa Bryant.
    After the episode aired, it soon made headlines. However, instead of compliments, Jada received harsh criticism over the interview because it seemed like people think that Jada cornered Snoop despite his apology. “jada you’re out of pocket for this bs,” one user wrote in the comment section while someone else added, “Jada this ain’t it and you should do better for you black community.”
    One fan was saddened to see Snoop clarifying his comments all over again. “I would like to see [Oprah Winfrey] or Gayle at the table next… Snoop is being attacked!!! And he already apologizedm.” Echoing the sentiment, one other shared, “It hurts me that he has to keep clarifying his hurt. I’ve been thinking for some days now how few safe places exist for men of color to be vulnerabgle and grieve without being judged or persecuted the I way snoop is.”
    “HE SAID WHAT HE SAID JADA !!” a supportive fan exclaimed. “It was never about anybody else, it was directed to that woman only,” another explained.
    During the interview, the rap veteran revealed that he went hard against Gayle for bringing up the late basketball icon’s rape case during a chat with Kobe’s friend and fellow athlete Lisa Leslie because he wanted to protect Vanessa. “I wanted to make sure what I said was said the right way and I wanted to make sure that the message was across. That we love Kobe and be respectful of Vanessa and those kids,” he shared.
    “That’s what the whole intent was, to protect that women and them babies over there, because she’s still grieving. And let’s give them that respect (sic),” he added.

    Snoop Dogg Convinces Lil' Kim Lovers & Friends Festival Is Not a Scam

    Instagram

    Though she initially distanced herself from the inaugural festival, the ‘Lighters Up’ rapper confirms her participation following a direct intervention by the ‘Drop It Like It’s Hot’ hitmaker.
    Feb 21, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Lil’ Kim has credited hip-hop heavyweight Snoop Dogg for saving the day after initially denying plans to perform at California’s inaugural Lovers & Friends festival.
    Fans were left fearing another Fyre Festival disaster this week (begins February 17) after Kim, along with fellow rappers Ma$e and Twista, distanced themselves from the new gig following the release of the star-studded line-up, headlined by Lauryn Hill, Usher, Ludacris, Lil Jon and TLC.
    According to promoters at events company Goldenvoice – the same firm behind Coachella, Jhene Aiko, Megan Thee Stallion, Summer Walker, Nelly, T-Pain, Sean Paul, Ja Rule, Brandy, Monica, Eve, Ginuwine, Cam’ron and SWV are also billed to take the stage during the one-day bash in Los Angeles on 9 May.
    However, Kim quickly dismissed the claims, sharing the poster on her Instagram Stories timeline and declaring, “This is so fake! I am not a part of this.”

    Fellow rapper Ma$e also used social media to request promoters “pls (please) take my name off of this flyer,” while Twista claimed he wasn’t confirmed because he had yet to receive his advance. “Ain’t no deposit hit my account for this show (sic),” he wrote online.
    “Slow Jamz” hitmaker Twista soon told fans he would now be playing the gig, updating them by posting, “Locked and loaded playin all the hits ya diggg (sic).”
    Now Kim has also cleared up any issues with Goldenvoice officials after an intervention by Snoop, who was revealed to be one of the concert’s promoters and reached out to the “Lighters Up” star himself.
    “Lil’ Kim, get at me on the DM (direct message) so we can get at you about this money (sic),” Snoop wrote.

    It appears he managed to smooth over relations between Kim and event bosses, as she will be in attendance after all.
    “THE CHECK HAS CLEARED,” she declared on Instagram on Thursday (February 20), as she shared the festival poster with followers.
    “Thank uncle @snoopdogg guys cause if it wasn’t for him this would not be happening but y’all know how much I love Cali and Uncle Snoop. See ya’ll May 9th, 2020 @loversandfriendsfest (sic).”

    It’s not yet clear if Ma$e, Sean “P. Diddy” Combs’ former protege, will also be among the acts performing at the festival following his initial statement.
