Snoop, Nelly and Soulja Boy caught flak for performing at inauguration events. 

 

Sports talk, loud-mouth, Stephen A. Smith weighed in on the criticism.

 

All 3 dudes are already millionaires.  They had their own reasons for performing at the event.  There's no such thing as having too much money.

 

No matter how it's spun, I believe the color green was their primary motivation.

 

Just like anybody else, rich entertainers will put their politics aside in order to get paid.

Personally, I could care less about what the D O double G does and the rest of those brothers do. I file this under “don’t hate the players hate the game.”

 

I presume they were white entertainers as well, did they receive any criticism?

Of course not.  Some Black folks are concerned with our people performing behind enemy lines.

 

Nevermind the fact that at least 70% of Hip-Hop music is consumed by non-Black folks.

Which is why it stopped truly serving Black people many years ago.
