Music news

A pin showing the rapper blowing the Olympic rings with his mouth is the object that all athletes are fighting over. Only one American athlete has been able to get one so far.

He's everywhere! Since the launch of the Olympic Games in the French capital, rapper Snoop Dogg has been showing off his skills. Sometimes at the torch relay, then in the stands of the most beautiful sports facilities in the front row. The artist has even been seen trying out different sports like judo and swimming.

Charismatic and with an extraordinary amount of sympathy, the West Coast rapper has become one of the stars of these Games, to the great delight of fans and athletes. The artist even has an Olympic pin with his image for the occasion. These small metal objects are used as currency for the athletes who compete in the events. A tradition that dates back to 1896.

Snoop Dogg's depicts the rapper taking the Olympic rings out of his mouth, as if he were puffing away after smoking. A reference to the rapper's well-known artistic direction.

The must-have item

To get the famous relic, you have to receive it from Mr. Snoop himself. This is the case of American tennis player Coco Gauff, who warmly thanked her compatriot for this beautiful gift: ” Hey Mr. Snoop, thanks for this pin! It's the best one I've ever gotten “.

A privilege that inevitably makes other athletes dream, like these two New Zealand rugby players who, on Tiktok, announced that they would do anything to obtain the precious pin. This race for the Snoop Dogg pin could well become the new challenge that will occupy the minds of athletes.
