Snoop Dogg spent much of the 2024 Olympics contributing to NBC’s Games coverage, and in proper form helped bring them to an end with a performance during the closing ceremony.

The rapper delivered a rousing rendition of “Drop It Like It’s Hot” on the L.A. beach, set against a backdrop of elaborate sandcastles. He was then joined by Dr. Dre on a nearby stage for an electrifying performance of their iconic hit “The Next Episode.” Their performance was part of a star-studded lineup that included Billie Eilish, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and H.E.R., paying homage to Snoop Dogg's Long Beach roots, the city set to host the 2028 Olympics.

Snoop was on hand from the very start of the Olympics, carrying the torch on its final leg towards Paris. He ran through the streets of Saint-Denis, a north Paris suburb home to the Stade de France Olympic Stadium.

Throughout the Games, Snoop Dogg consistently generated viral moments with his reactions to the competitions and commentary. He cheered on the women’s gymnastics team, interacted with athletes, offered commentary on badminton matches, received swimming lessons from Olympian Michael Phelps, engaged in affirmations with gymnast Suni Lee, enjoyed a private tour of the Louvre, and even watched a horse named Gin & Juice. As the Games drew to a close, he presented Simone Biles’ father with a Death Row chain as a birthday gift.

The legendary artist's most recent album, “BODR,” was released in 2022, marking his 19th studio album. He is currently working on his upcoming album, “Missionary,” with production by longtime collaborator Dr. Dre. While details about the project are limited, rapper 50 Cent has confirmed his involvement.
