Who would’ve believed that ? Snoop Dogg joins the prestigious team of sports commentators and consultants of the American channel NBC for the 2024 Olympic Games which will take place from July 26 to August 11.

In 2021, the Californian artist was invited to video comment on some events of the Tokyo Olympic Games, alongside comedian Kevin Hart. One of the moments experienced by the duo had also become viral on social networks as their remarks had made Internet users laugh. This year, a big event awaits Snoop since he will be alongside the iconic commentator Mike Tirico in Paris.

It is true that the rapper does not have the skills of a professional sports commentator, but that is not what the channel expects of him. Snoop Dogg will introduce spectators to emblematic places in the city and he will travel to certain events to report on them. He will also visit certain athletes and their families or loved ones. “We’re going to have some amazing competitions and I’ll bring that Snoop style into the mix. These will be the most epic Games of all time, so stay tuned and don’t give up.”, he said enthusiastically.
This participation by the rapper is very well received by the American public who know the outspokenness and legendary humor of Snoop Dogg. It is very likely that the extracts from Uncle Snoop’s reports will remain in the memories of an entire generation, well beyond the Olympic Games! Snoop Dogg is not the only international personality to be involved in the biggest sporting event on the planet. American rapper Megan Thee Stallion also recently appeared in a fun promotional clip for the Paris Olympic Games broadcast on NBC.
