Snoop Dogg reveals his effort in helping California after deadly wildfires.
Snoop Dogg is “pushing buttons” to help Los Angeles city after the disastrous wildfires in the past week, which destroyed thousands of houses and killed over 24 people. The rapper made an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, where he reflect on the tragic situation.
“California, this is like our first time dealing with [large-scale natural disaster], and the way that California is coming together and the way that the world is helping us — that’s the important thing. People aren’t looking at differences; they’re just looking at trying to make a difference,” he said, before praising the firefighters. “They don’t never get no credit, and they always show up and they do what’s best. And when the job is over with, it’s like they’re forgotten about. But we need to give them a lot of praise right now. I give them a lot.”
“I got a lot of people that’s out there on the ground that’s making things happen. I’m pushing buttons, making things happen, and making sure that the right people are getting the things they need,” he revealed. “Because a lot of time when we put these donations together, certain people don’t get it. So we need to make sure that everybody who needs this gets this. So what my team does, is we go on the ground and we make sure that we make a direct connection with those people and aren’t missing anybody.”
“There were talks about concerts to raise money for the victims and the people that have lost in this situation,” he added. “So I think that’s more of the angle that I would be leaning towards — to do a concert and not, you know, be paid and take my proceeds from the tickets and make sure that the people got something.”
