The fifty-two-year-old musician made the statement on his X account on Thursday, stressing how crucial it is to respect his privacy at this time.
The rapper gave careful deliberation to this decision and cited conversations with his family as reasons for his decision. In 2022, he revealed during an exclusive sneak peek of Martha Stewart’s iHeartRadio show that he began smoking at the age of 18.
“After much consideration and conversation with my family, I’ve decided to give up smoke.
Please, at this time, respect my privacy,” Snoop wrote.
