Snoop Dogg is no longer scared of queer people in children's media (www.avclub.com)

Frankly, it’s the most “gangster” thing he’s done in a while. Most gangsters are bigots. It’s a low education background

Most of them are "studio gangsters" who tell imaginary stories they just make up.

Honestly in this political climate, I'll take it. He could have easily taken a hard right turn

He played at Trumps inaugural Crypto Ball.

You can’t turn much farther right than that.

I'm just trying to imagine Trump watching a Snoop Dogg performance and wondering what fresh hell he's be dropped into. Pretty far from Ava Maria.

Drumpf was probably wondering why Snoop wasn't singing YMCA

In Bo Burnham voice: His $27 8-packs weren't selling very well, those sorts of problems.

There is always something to critique, huh? I think it's positive that he has changed his stance regarding LGBTQ+ and even made a children's song spreading the message that love is love. We need more inclusion, acceptance and tolerance in this society.

If Snoop is smart enough to spread a positive message and earn money at the same time, then good for him. At least he is trying to spread positivity to the world.

All he saw was his bottom line dropping and backpedaled.

Did you forget the Trump event he played at? 😂

That’s not someone who has goodness in their heart. He’s an opportunist and business man who is more likely to end up heading events in Dubai with Dave Chappell over doing something meaningful to spite the oligarchs that are actively seeking to kill LGBTQ+ individuals.
