People all around the world like Snoop Dogg, so it should come as no surprise that even the late Queen Elizabeth II was a fan of the iconic rapper.
Prior to his Olympic campaign, Uncle Snoop disclosed to UK radio station Capital FM last month that he had admirers in his grandmother and [the more likely] Prince William.
He answered, “I’ll go by the palace and see if they let me in.” Snoop retorted, “Well, the Queen was a fan too,” to the interviewer’s statement that he had heard William, the future king, was a big fan of his. I hope the Queen, who was my girl, rests in peace. You understand what I’m saying?
Snoop Dogg posted an old interview tape on his Instagram Stories shortly after the shocking news of Queen Elizabeth’s passing went viral in 2022. In the film, he talked to DJ Whoo Kid about the occasion when the Queen saved him from being barred from performing in England.
Snoop was being prosecuted for murder at the time for shooting gang member Philip Woldermariam to death. A 1994 cover of the British newspaper The Daily Star included a picture of Snoop Dogg with the tagline, “KICK THIS EVIL BASTARD OUT!”
“They expelled me from the UK.” “Get rid of this nasty bastard,” Snoop stated during the interview. It’s the headline. That garbage is recorded. On the front was a photograph of me. “Kick this evil bastard out,” they said. This occurred while I was doing performances over there and prosecuting a murder case.
“But guess who stood up for me?” he said. Simply make a guess. N-gga, the Queen. “This man has done nothing for our country,” declared the Queen. He is welcome to attend. N-gga, the Queen, bow down.
“Bow down when the Queen speaks. That’s the grandma of Harry and Williams, right? You may believe that they were not present when you said, “Grandma, please let him in.” He’s alright. His music is fantastic. “Harry, you know I’ll let him in for you.” He’s actually pretty adorable and not too horrible. My girl, that’s The Queen.
Many well-known artists, including Nicki Minaj, Janet Jackson, Sir Elton John, Sir Paul McCartney, and Eve, expressed their sorrow for Queen Elizabeth II on social media.
