Flavor Flav Says Snoop Dogg's Olympic Torch Moment Will Be Unforgettable

Hip-hop icon Flavor Flav is cheering for Snoop Dogg ahead of his historic torch-bearing moment.

The "Fight the Power" hitmaker raved about the fellow rapper in a new interview, declaring that no one in the hip-hop community will ever forget Snoop's achievement at the 2024 Olympics.

Flavor Flav is not the only one excited about the Paris games, as Snoop Dogg also promised to be on his "best behavior" for the event.

While talking to Charlie Neff and Towanda Robinson on " The TMZ Podcast," Flav notes that Friday will be "a very, very big moment for rap music history" thanks to Snoop.

In a few hours, the "Drop It Like It's Hot" rapper will cruise through the town of Saint-Denis holding the prestigious torch. Then, the flames will light the Olympic cauldron at the Opening Ceremony on the River Seine.

This moment, per Flav, is the "main thing" he is "really, really" looking forward to in the Paris Games. Why? The Hip-hop icon believes it will be an unforgettable moment that fans will discuss decades later, as reported by TMZ.

Besides his excitement for Snoop's big moment, Flav supports Team USA. He is the official sponsor of the USA women's water polo team and traveled to France this month as a part of his duties.

With Flav in Paris, he will see Snoop carry the torch live as he makes his way through the town of Saint-Denis. He had one final piece of advice for his pal, "don't drop the torch!"

As for the torch bearer, Snoop confessed he took his position seriously in an interview earlier this week and promised to be on his "best behavior." This presumably means fans won't see him lighting up his signature blunts.

Earlier this week, Snoop's name made the list as one of the final torchbearers of the Olympic flame before Friday's opening ceremony in Paris. He is expected to carry the torch through the streets of Saint-Denis in the north of Paris.

Saint-Denis is home to the Stade de France Olympic Stadium, and it marks the penultimate leg of the torch's journey before the relay ends at the Eiffel Tower. The prestigious flame began its journey in May, crossing France in the hands of A-listers.

The list includes former Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, Formula One driver Charles Leclerc, and actress Halle Berry.

According to the BBC, Snoop will join his fellow torchbearers, French actress Laetitia Casta and French rapper MC Solaar, in Saint-Denis to complete the torch's journey.

Although Snoop promised to be on his "best behavior" at the Olympics, The Blast reported that his vow didn't stop him from pursuing one of his favorite activities. Ahead of the Paris games, he launched his first licensed cannabis store in Los Angeles.

The business venture, S.W.E.D., represented Snoop's well-known phrase "Smoke Weed Every Day." The store was conveniently located near LAX Airport and was promoted as a new cultural hub that offered premium products and services.

S.W.E.D. combined cannabis delights with pop culture, taking customers for a unique experience in Snoop's world. From his music to a smoke-proof DJ booth and iconic memorabilia, the store boasted the rapper's style down to his handwritten phrases graffitied on the walls.

The cannabis store was the first venture in Snoop's business empire as he was set to launch a S.W.E.D. coffee shop in the heart of Amsterdam, Netherlands, in August 2024.

Two years before Snoop launched S.W.E.D., the rapper made waves by acquiring Death Row Records in late 2022. He raved about the significant business deal in an interview, saying:

"I am thrilled and appreciative of the opportunity to acquire the iconic and culturally significant Snoop Death Row Records brand, which has immense untapped future value."

Snoop continued, "It feels good to have ownership of the label I was part of at the beginning of my career and as one of the founding members. This is an extremely meaningful moment for me."

From launching a cannabis brand to becoming a torchbearer at the Olympics, Snoop Dogg proves he is a man of many talents. What will be his next achievement?
