The 16-time Grammy nominee previously spoke out about his mother in 2020, when he revealed on Red Table Talk that Beverly, a former choir director, convinced him to apologize to Gayle King after he criticized the CBS This Morning anchor for bringing up Kobe Bryant’s past legal issues in the wake of the NBA star’s death.

“My mother raised me in church, and she raised me to respect women,” Snoop said on the talk show, per People. “It was certain things she said to me that took me back to being a little kid. And when your mama can make you feel like a kid, that’s when you gotta get right.”

Our thoughts are with Snoop and his family during this difficult time.
