Are You Still Disappointed In Snoop Dog After Crypto Ball Performance? Lost 500K Followers

Musicians may not always expect to expand their fan base by playing “corporate” gigs, but few would anticipate losing more than half a million of their social media followers after such a performance. Yet, that was the case for rap artist Snoop Dog who has been under scrutiny for performing at the Crypto Ball on January 17. At issue was that it was among the many events celebrating President Donald Trump’s return to the White House this month. As a result of his appearance on stage, Snoop lost more than 571,000 followers on Instagram while 20,000 “unfollowed” him on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter. t should be noted that Snoop has more than 20 million followers on X and over 88 million followers on Instagram – so the numbers are just a fraction of his base. Yet, in addition to those who have ceased following him, he’s also been targeted by critics on social media. Snoop has since fired back, stating in a video on Instagram, “Y’all can’t hate enough on me for me, I love too much. Get your life right, stop worrying about mine. I’m cool, I’m together. Still a Black man. Still a hundred percent Black. I ain’t going nowhere, cuh! I’m right here.”
