In a move that’s sure to pique the interest of hip-hop enthusiasts and collectors alike, Snoop Dogg has put up for auction one of the most unusual pieces of memorabilia from his legendary career – a smoked blunt roach.
This unique item is being offered as part of Snoop’s ongoing “Tha Shiznit” auction, hosted by The Realest, marking the first time that a roach authenticated by the rap icon himself has been made available. The roach was smoked under the watchful eye of a TRUeST Authenticator on March 27 of this year and has since been carefully encased in solid resin, rendering it non-consumable. The resin-encased roach is then housed within the ashtray used by Snoop during the smoking session, ensuring that the highest bidder can proudly display this rare piece for years to come.
In addition to this unique offering, the auction features a range of other notable items from Snoop Dogg’s illustrious career. These include a Doggystyle gold plaque from the Canadian Recording Industry Association, a signed tour itinerary and tech rider, a custom Death Row Records logo pendant from King Ice, and even his handwritten tour setlist. Each item up for bidding serves as a tangible testament to Snoop’s profound impact on the world of music and beyond, with original lyric sheets, stage-worn items, and exclusive studio masters among the offerings.
As of now, the bidding for Snoop Dogg’s smoked blunt roach stands at $514 USD. For those interested in owning a piece of hip-hop history, visit the official auction website for further details.
