Snoop Dogg recently paid tribute to one of the most iconic moments of his career during a live performance on Live From the Front Porch with rapper Noochie. He opened the set by performing “Murder Was the Case,” starting in a wheelchair before standing up midway through, a nod to his legendary 1993 MTV Video Music Awards performance. During that live show, Snoop did the same thing, beginning the performance in a wheelchair and standing up later in the song.
The 1993 VMA performance is memorable not only for the dramatic moment but also for the intense situation surrounding it. At the time, detectives were waiting at the ceremony to arrest Snoop on murder charges. He ended his performance by declaring his innocence before dodging the detectives and turning himself in later that night. After a lengthy legal process, Snoop was found not guilty in 1996, and just last year, the record was officially sealed, closing that chapter of his life.
In other news, Snoop Dogg has recently become a grandfather for the eighth time. His daughter, Cori Broadus, gave birth to her first child on February 28, despite complications. Cori shared the news of the premature birth on Instagram, announcing that her baby arrived at just 25 weeks. She expressed a mixture of emotions, reflecting on the difficulties she faced and the support she received from her faith, saying, “Baby girl came at 25 weeks today and she’s the best!! Thank You God for getting me this far.”
Cori’s pregnancy had become high-risk after she was diagnosed with HELLP syndrome, a pregnancy complication that affects the liver and blood system. She also lives with lupus, which further complicated her condition. Following the birth, the baby was placed in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for care. Despite the challenges, Cori expressed gratitude and continued to stay positive about her daughter’s health.
In an earlier interview, Cori revealed that her parents were thrilled about the pregnancy, though her father, Snoop, had been hoping for a grandson. This new addition to the family marks a significant moment for Snoop, who continues to navigate both his professional achievements and family life.
