On Thursday, November 16, Snoop Dogg took to his official social media channels to share a brief photo message with fans. The 52-year-old rapper shared an image of himself holding his hands in a prayer stance. Additionally, the image featured a few words.
“After much consideration & conversation with my family, I’ve decided to give up smoke,” the photo read. “Please respect my privacy at this time.”
