Yes, you read the headline right! But we are not the one to judge. Virtually every hip-hop fan wanted to hear the most talked about album in recent times. And when Snoop finds that the only snag to having access to the album was a Tidal subscription, he turned to bootlegging a copy. Below is his admission in the YouTube video.
“Top of the morning,” Snoop says in the video. “I want to shoot a shout out to JAY-Z just dropped another muthafuckin’ hot album, 4:44…4:44. But you know what? I don’t got Tidal, so a n__ had to bootleg it to me. I’m on iTunes and sh__ cuz, I don’t understand that—y’all gotta explain that to me. I went to iTunes looking for his album and I couldn’t find it. But my homie sent it to me, you understand me. But um, shout out to JAY-Z, my n__. He did it again. See, I ain’t no hater, I love the game for what it’s worth—the young n__s and the old n__s. Practice that. Practice showing love. Practice supporting other muthafuckas other than yourself. Yeah, do that.”
