Rapper Snoop Dogg is part of new UnloadYour401K campaign aimed at getting hard-working Americans to call their financial advisers and get rid of any and all investments in gun companies.
Snoop Dogg appears in a video for the campaign in which he says, “I’ve been affected by gun violence over the years, just through the deaths of friend and family members, and associates.”
In another portion he appears again, this time holding a white sign with “#ImUnloading” emblazoned upon it. He says, “I’m unloading for my love ones that I lost.”
Singer/Songwriter Jhene Aiko also appears in the #ImUnloading video. She says that at age five she was held at gunpoint during a home invasion.

Snoop (fill in the blank with this week’s name) sounds like he wants attention.

Will he ask his bodyguards to disarm, too?
That’s going nowhere.
STFU, Snoop Dogg. You built your fortune on the glorification of violence.
Snoop Doggy Dogg is giving investment advice now???
Is he still a drug using violent gang member???
Should we shed our investments in companies in the rap business??? Rap music is part of a deadly cultural brew. But if we do that then Snoop Doggy Dogg isn’t wealthy anymore, and won’t be in.a.position to.lecture us about how to live.
This is ridiculous. The man is a criminal.
Its a shame that Scoop Doggie Poop didnt wait until he took delivery of this 1oK....Apple Watch....to have his photo taken...
Amazing -my wife and I just this morning were discussing our retirement accounts and she asked, “I wonder what Snoop Dogg would do?”
I was thinking exactly the same thing.
So many similarities to the Resident....
Nobody’s scooping your dog crap, Snoop.
Would my wife’s Sig be considered an investment in a gun company? Because I certainty consider it a good investment.
What’s next, Bill Cosby advocating for birth control?
