Rapper Snoop Dogg has a message for President Trump and his aides: “I love what they did,” he said, while granting clemency to Death Row Records co-founder Michael “Harry O” Harris.
Harris learned on Tuesday that he will be released early from prison on Trump’s orders, although the White House has not yet said so publicly.
The music and marijuana mogul was informed of the decision on Sunday and said he wanted to share a message with the outgoing president.
“It’s great work for the president and his team on the way out,” said Snoop Dogg in comments shared with the Post.
“They did a great job while they were there and they did a great job on their way out. Let them know that I love what they did. “
He also said, “It is amazing what the work of God can really bring to life to make people understand that there is a God.”
Snoop Dogg praised Trump in a call from Zoom with reform advocates Alice Johnson and Weldon Angelos, who shared the recording with his permission.
The Zoom meeting was called so that Johnson could break the news to Snoop Dogg that Harris, 59, would be receiving clemency after three decades in prison for attempted murder and cocaine trafficking. Its launch was scheduled for June 2028.
“Happy Sunday” Snoop Dogg says, before hearing the purpose of the so-called Zoom.
Johnson, the first time offender, Trump, was released from a life sentence after Kim Kardashian’s lobby and then pardoned, and then shared the news.
Johnson told Snoop Dogg: “I just got a call from the White House and Harry-O is getting clemency. He’s coming home, brother! “
Snoop exclaims, “God is good!”
An emotional Johnson agrees, “All the time! All the time! All the time!”
Harris received word that he had received clemency at the Lompoc Federal Correctional Institution in California, said Angelos, who received his own forgiveness from Trump in December.
Angelos said Harris sent him an email saying, “Thank God. God is good. It feels like the weight of the world has been lifted off my shoulders. “
Snoop’s efforts came even though he was an outspoken critic of Trump – and even made a video in which he pretended to shoot a clown dressed as president.
Angelos attributed to the first daughter Ivanka Trump the imminent launch of Harris more than seven years before the date set for June 13, 2028.
“The credit for this one goes to Ivanka Trump, because Ivanka Trump wouldn’t take no for an answer,” he said.
He said Ivanka “did it for Alice Johnson and this is a big win for hip-hop”.
