About Calvin C. Broadus Jr., aka Snoop Dogg…

Reportedly receiving a bit of flack for performing at Trump’s pre-inaugural gala. He wasn’t the only rapper who did, but in 2017 he said:

Pretty harsh, but a lot of us agreed with him. So last month, when that particular "chicken" came home to roost, I wondered what he was going to say.

A lot of us wondered, what changed ? Did he need the money (unlikely) ? Did Trump make him an offer he couldn’t refuse ? Was it some way to help the community (since he’s said that’s important to him) ?

This was the first reply I found:

Lame as hell, full of senseless bragging and (imo) just screams "hypocrite". I wasn’t really a fan, so I have no works of his to throw away or burn, but I do think considerably less of him.

So the insults of 2017 were not in fact, him taking a stand as a black man on something important to our community.

Apparently it was just him "pulling down other black people", by his own admission, because he didn’t mean any of it. 😒

Snoop is notorious for being all about whatever gets him paid , he switches spots like a leaf on a rainy day.

A noticeable amount of men in our community are chugging the trump poison elixir, why ? I have my theories .
@AfroDOS What are your thoughts ? A few fellows I’ve spoken to gave the excuse that they believed he’d bring prices down, but he didn’t do that last time—he just continued Obama’s economy, and took credit for it.Then the pandemic came.

@bijouxbroussard I share my fellow rapper Kendrick Lamar’s opinion there’s jealousy towards women .

I believe men ( black men included ) don’t like that women have taken the lead in education, are getting better job opportunities and don’t really “ need “ us .

Men on the other hand are less educated and we’re experiencing that pesky male loneliness epidemic ( well deserved by the way )

And support for trump is one massive temper tantrum.

That’s my theory , misery loves company

Misogynist would rather pull women back down to their level than climb up to meet them .
@AfroDOS Sadly, I think there’s truth in that. I do take comfort in that the majority of us, (men, too) did support Harris. Larger percentages than other demographics.

@bijouxbroussard I do too , but 23% still supported the gold fish

That’s a massive leap compared to the small amount of
Black men in 2020 that supported him (8%) I believe
@AfroDOS My understanding was 8% in 2016, 12% in 2020, 21% 2024.

@bijouxbroussard that’s even worse cause it means we’re losing more and more each election cycle
@AfroDOS Yes, it’s definitely been a downward trend. It’s incomprehensible because the more we find out about the man, the less we should be trusting anything he says to us.
