This is going to be an incredibly unpopular opinion, so hold onto your hip-hop loving hats.
The only reason Snoop Dogg is creating NFTs is because if he created his own cryptocurrency it would be an unregistered security, so instead he’s selling pictures.jpeg online and cashing out the crypto. He’s already worth $150 million, he doesn’t benefit from decentralized finance, he’s just enriching himself with shitty artwork.
You thought the board ape yacht club was bad art? Look at his trash gold chain and Doobie roach NFTs he’s selling.
This 50-year-old professional grifter had one or two bangers in the 90s, but he’s a mediocre rapper at best who only and still talks about “the hustle” and “smoking OG” – listen I love pot but this guy makes stoners look bad, and I love crypto, but this guy is making NFTs look worse, and that’s saying something!
He will do anything to make money, he’s done Tostitos, beer, & Just Eat commercials, I think he’s done 90+ TV commercials, he even got paid $5million for his SodaStream one. Is this ‘the hustle’? I thought we hated when Jimmy Fallon, Paris Hilton, Justin Bieber, Mark Cuban, Shaquille O’Neal, Kevin Hart, Steve Aoki, and Eminem bought BAYC NFTs; what the hell do these multi-millionaires have to benefit off of NFTs and defi?!?
Idolizing him for getting into crypto is like idolizing big banks for offering ‘cryptocurrency services’. Not all adoption is good adoption, some of it makes this space look like a dumpster fire of greed and fraud.
