Iconic rapper Snoop Dogg is in hot water for mocking a morbidly obese rapper about his weight.
Last week, rapper Dave Blunts, 23, performed his viral song “The Cup” in front of a sold-out crowd in Los Angeles.
The rapper’s morbid obesity affects his mobility, so he raps while sitting in a chair onstage.
Video clips show the aspiring artist excitedly taking in the moment as fans rap the words to his song. The video went viral on social media, eventually catching the eye of Snoop Dogg.
Instead of remarking on Blunt’s talent, Snoop fat-shamed the brother.
“We’ll put down the chicken wings and Tata chips [nephew] and that chair gone break soon get to the end of the cup,” Snoop wrote in the caption of his Instagram post.
Snoop’s followers chastised the aging rapper for not uplifting a fellow artist.
“This ain’t cool unc,” wrote one person. Another fan wrote, “help him out rather than clowning.”
A fan suggested Snoop and the other trolls take a chance to learn more about the rising rapper.
One fan said the video is a call for help. “We watching this man sing about ending his self. Somebody encourage this man to get a therapist and a trainer. He’s very talented and we tired of losing talented people too early. I wanna see more black men get old bruh.”
Blunts shared his own IG post about his “first performance” with a message stating prior to going on stage, he was “about to have a nervous breakdown.”
Another person said, “Sh*t lowkey sad because I like dave blunts and he’s actually making fun music lol. Can’t hate on the music so they hate on his looks. Wonder how much more great art we would have if people didn’t feel the need to bully every single person that’s trying.”
