Snoop Dogg, the iconic rapper known for his love of weed, has made a surprising announcement. In a statement shared online on November 16, the 52-year-old artist revealed that he has decided to quit smoking. This unexpected news has shocked his fans who associate him with his notorious consumption of cannabis.
In his post, Snoop Dogg stated, "I'm giving up smoke," and shared a message that read, "After much consideration with my family, I've decided to give up smoke." Signing off, he requested privacy during this time. It's a significant change for someone who was once rumored to have 75-150 joints rolled for him daily, though he dismissed these claims later on.
Renegade Piranha, who had claimed to be Snoop's "personal blunt roller," revealed last year that he rolled about half a pound (around 450,000 blunts) per day for the rapper. However, in March of this year, Snoop admitted that he had reduced his weed intake after becoming a grandfather. The birth of his grandson Zion in 2015 prompted him to reassess his lifestyle.
Snoop Dogg shared, "Being a grandfather has changed me in multiple ways. The main way is being concerned with how I live, how I move, the kind of people I'm associated with because I want to see my grandkids grow old." He emphasized the importance of taking precautionary steps towards a healthier lifestyle by carefully choosing his company, activities, and habits.
This decision to quit smoking signifies a significant shift in Snoop Dogg's life. It reflects his desire to prioritize his health and family as he embraces his role as a grandfather. Fans all around the world will undoubtedly support his decision and respect his privacy during this time of personal transformation.
Snoop Dogg's announcement serves as a reminder that even the most iconic figures can make positive changes in their lives. As we follow his journey, we can draw inspiration from his determination to prioritize his well-being while maintaining his unique personality and undeniable talent.
