Hip-hop fans rejoice! 21 Savage is stepping back in time with his new hairstyle.
- The rapper surprised everyone on Instagram by flaunting a hairdo inspired by Snoop Dogg during the ‘Doggystyle’ era.
- Not one to mince words, 21 Savage captioned his picture, paying homage to Snoop with a cheeky comment.
- Snoop Dogg gave the nod to 21’s fresh look by reposting it with a short, sweet comment, ‘My dogg.’
- Snoop’s nostalgic style has influenced others before, including Drake, who braided his hair like the West Coast legend.
21 Savage is turning heads and winning smiles with his unexpected new hairstyle. In a surprising twist, the rapper styled his hair to echo Snoop Dogg’s iconic look from the ‘Doggystyle’ days. Fans caught sight when he shared a mirror selfie on Instagram, and the reaction has been nothing short of excitement.
Clearly aware of the resemblance, 21 Savage doubled down on the fun, captioning his post with, ‘Thinking about going throwback snoop on you female dogs.’ The playful language was a light-hearted nod to the original Doggfather himself, adding flair to his embrace of a classic style.
Snoop Dogg couldn’t help but laugh along with the rest of us. In an act of approval, the legendary West Coast rapper reposted 21’s photo, adding his own touch with the words, ‘My dogg.’ It’s a two-word testament to Snoop’s laid-back humor and his appreciation for a style homage.
But 21 Savage isn’t alone in his Snoop-inspired transformation. Fellow rapper Drake has also taken a turn at sporting Snoop’s timeless style. Last year, he debuted a selfie wearing braided pigtails similar to those Snoop wore back in the early 2000s. This ode to Snoop speaks volumes about his lasting influence on the hip-hop world.
Drake’s playful imitation didn’t stop there. He once used AI to recreate Snoop and 2Pac’s voices for a track that stirred up some beef with Kendrick Lamar. Although initially bemused by the digital doppelganger, Snoop laughed it off by posting the track with the caption, ’90s Hip Hop Forever.’ This post momentarily caused friction with Kendrick, leading to an introspective lyric on his album.
Snoop later chalked up the incident to a misunderstanding induced by edibles and squashed any tension with Kendrick through an apology. Snoop assured Bootleg Kev that all was well between them. Humorously, he retold how he left Kendrick a message, attributing his post to being ‘fucked up,’ and showed genuine warmth in smoothing out their relationship.
21 Savage and Drake channeling Snoop Dogg highlights the enduring charm of a hip-hop legend’s style.
