Video After The Jump
Snoop Dogg's new video for "Lavender" is getting lots of attention for it's unflinching negative view of the police, depiction of President Donald Trump as a clown, and a controversial scene in which the POTUS is assassinated by the Long Beach rapper.
"Fuck the police from a black man's point of view / Spray that shit, say that shit / We right in front of you. Each and every one of you / I'm not gon' tell you niggas what we're gonna do / But whatever you did, put two on it / And put a foot on your neck with a shoe on it," Snoop raps on the track, which is a remix of BADBADNOTGOOD's song of the same name featuring Kaytranada.
Snoop told Billboard that to him the song is "not controversial but real" and gives a "real to the voice of the people who don’t have a voice."
As far as Trump is concerned, the "Gin and Juice" hit maker thinks it's time artists wake up and take a stand.
"I feel like it’s a lot of people making cool records, having fun, partying, but nobody’s dealing with the real issue with this fucking clown as president, and the shit that we dealing with out here, so I wanted to take time out to push pause on a party record and make one of these records for the time being."
