D.L. Hughley Criticizes Snoop Dogg's Trump Inauguration Performance and Response to Backlash

The comedian called out the rapper for contradicting his past stance and urged self-reflection over the controversy.

  • Snoop Dogg performed at President Trump's Crypto Ball during inauguration weekend, drawing backlash from fans and losing over 571,000 Instagram followers.
  • D.L. Hughley criticized Snoop Dogg on his podcast, arguing that the rapper's actions conflicted with his 2017 stance against artists performing for Trump.
  • Snoop responded to the backlash by emphasizing love over hate, but Hughley suggested the issue lies in Snoop's internal conflict, not the community's reaction.
  • Hughley highlighted the Black community's overwhelming support for Kamala Harris in the 2024 election and expressed disappointment in Snoop's decision to perform.
  • Snoop's change of perspective on Trump reportedly began in 2021 after Trump commuted the sentence of Death Row Records co-founder Michael 'Harry-O' Harris.
