Snoop Dogg clarifies statement, says he is not “quitting” weed

Snoop Dogg earlier announced he was quitting smoking “after much consideration and conversation” with his family

By Kehinde Okeowo.

American hip-hop legend, Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr, aka Snoop Dogg, has come out to clarify that the “smoking” he said he gave up was not weed but smoky room warmer barely four days after saying he “decided to give up smoke,”

The 52-year-old initially didn’t clarify what he meant by “smoke,” which led many fans to speculate that the rapper, well known for his affinity towards cannabis, was kicking his weed-smoking habit. But on Monday, he revealed that this was all a ruse to promote a brand of smokeless fire pits.

In an advertisement video shared via his X handle (formerly Twitter), Snoop Dogg said he was “going smokeless with Solo Stove.”

In the video, the rapper could be heard saying; “I have an announcement, I’m giving up smoke. I know what you’re thinking, ‘Snoop, smoke has carried your whole fame.’ But I’m done with it. I’m going smokeless. Solo Stove fixed fire. They take out the smoke. Clever! [Laughs]”

His earlier announcement that he was quitting smoking “after much consideration and conversation” with his family, had his fans and colleagues thinking he was referring to his age-long addiction to weed.

However, after his clarification, many fans took to social media to praise Snoop Dogg’s marketing skills while expressing relief that the rapper wasn’t actually giving up cannabis.

“The marketing behind this is crazy. GG,” said one Instagram user in the comments underneath Snoop Dogg’s video.

“The world would not have remained the same if you had really stopped smoking weed. Thank you,” another Instagram user wrote.
