Snoop Dogg Says It’s Okay To Spoil Grandbabies

On October 17 Snoop Dogg stopped by the “TODAY” show and shared some insight into his role as a proud grandfather to his seven “grandbabies.”

While joining Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager for a segment on “Social Dilemmas,” Snoop weighed in on a question from grandparents who had been told by their son, Jack, that they weren’t being strict enough with their grandchildren.

“Well, I am a grandfather so Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack when the parents are out of town, the kids can do whatever they want to do with grandpa and grandma,” the rapper replied. “So grandma, grandpa, keep bending the rules for your grandbabies because they’re going to love you forever, they’re going to always share secrets with you and they’re going to feel like they have a safe space with you.”

Snoop added, “Let the parents keep being those mean, wall-putting up barriers. You don’t have any barriers; you’re grandma and grandpa!”

Snoop Dogg Reflects On Being A Grandpa

Earlier this year, Snoop Dogg shared heartfelt reflections about his grandchildren in an exclusive clip from his Words + Music: From the Streets to the Suites special, released by People Magazine.

“I am a grandfather of six, with one on the way. And my grandkids are my everything because they all individually get a piece of my heart and they’re different,” he said at the time. “My oldest grandson Zion told me he’s the biggest star in the family. He took my Snoop Loopz box and put his own little cover on the front and made his own cereal.”

The rapper continued, “And then my granddaughter CC (Journey), she plays tennis, she loves her papa. She sees me in the store in my little Corona ads and what not — [she says], ‘Papa!’ That sh-t means the world to me for them to call me that because I had a papa.”
