Snoop Dogg and medical cannabis: From music to entrepreneurship

Talking about Snoop Dogg is inevitably talking about the legalization and use of the plant. The rapper was one of the first artists to openly transform his passion for the herb into a successful business ecosystem.

Over the years, he has actively invested in the medical and recreational cannabis industry, launching his own brands of phytocannabinoid-based products, content platforms focused on the topic, and investment funds aimed at startups in the sector.

The artist's journey reflects the evolution of the debate about the plant itself: the transition from stigma and marginalization to social acceptance, the recognition of its therapeutic properties, and the emergence of a billion-dollar legal market.
