Snoop Dogg’s surprising decision to give up smoking has raised eyebrows among his fans and followers. The rapper and entrepreneur made the announcement with a black-and-white social media post, revealing, “After much consideration & conversation with my family, I’ve decided to give up smoke. Please respect my privacy at this time.”
In a subsequent post, Snoop clarified that he was indeed giving up smoke, but did not specify whether it was related to cannabis or something else. However, he recently revealed that he has partnered with Solo Stove, a smokeless fire pit brand. Snoop expressed his excitement about the collaboration, stating, “I love a good fire outside but the smoke was too much. Solo Stove fixed fire and took out the smoke. They changed the game and now I’m excited to spread the love and stay warm with my friends and family.”
Under this partnership, Snoop is the official “smokesman” for the brand and will release a collaboration exclusively at solostove.com and goingsmokeless.com. Many celebrities and commenters, including Queen Latifah, Jhené Aiko, and Maya Rudolph, showed their support for Snoop’s decision. However, some users questioned whether Snoop was being serious, prompting further speculation about his unexpected announcement.
Following the initial post, Snoop continued to allude to his vow to quit smoking in subsequent social media posts. Notably, his announcement came just hours after launching a product with Martha Stewart called “Best Buds Bags.” This limited edition crossbody bag includes stash pockets and a lighter collection, highlighting Snoop’s ongoing relationship with cannabis-related products.
At 52 years old, Snoop has built a reputation for his association with marijuana and various cannabis-related businesses. From a branded line of weed, Leafs by Snoop, to collaborations with cannabis investment funds, Snoop’s ties to the cannabis industry have been well-documented. Despite his unexpected decision to quit smoking, it’s clear that Snoop’s influence in the cannabis space remains strong.
Through his surprising announcement and ongoing collaborations, Snoop Dogg continues to defy expectations and make headlines in the ever-evolving world of entertainment and business. While he may be stepping away from traditional smoking, it’s evident that Snoop’s impact will continue to be felt across a variety of industries.
