Snoop Dogg decides not to thank himself
By Andy Malt | Published on Tuesday 31 May 2022
Snoop Dogg has announced that he is cancelling all of his non-US live dates for the rest of 2022, meaning that his long-delayed-because-of-COVID UK tour will now not go ahead. So that sucks if you’ve been sitting on a ticket for his ‘I Wanna Thank Me’ tour since 2019.
A statement posted on Twitter reads: “Due to unforeseen scheduling conflicts, including family obligations and upcoming TV and film projects, Snoop Dogg regrets he is canceling all upcoming non-US tour dates for the remainder of 2022”.
“He was excited to see his fans around the world and apologies to all that had already made plans to see his show”, it goes on. “He looks forward to rescheduling dates in the future. Ticket refunds will be available at the original point of purchase. Snoop Dogg is still committed to his remaining US tour dates for the rest of 2022”.
Originally announced in 2019, the UK tour dates in support of the rapper’s ‘I Wanna Thank Me’ album should have gone ahead in April 2020. However, due to the then new and exciting COVID-19 pandemic, they were postponed. Since then, the shows have been pushed back a number of times, most recently from February and March this year to August and September.
Support on the tour was due to come from Warren G, Tha Dogg Pound, Obie Trice and D12.
