BADBADNOTGOOD’s super sleek Lavender received the remix treatment earlier this week courtesy of Kaytranada & Snoop Dogg. The accompanying video stars Michael Rapport as a humdrum clown, in a clown land run, appropriately, by a clown president. The president, Ronald Klump, has more than a passing resemblance to the grand fromage himself – Donald Trump.
Ever the pop culture enthusiast, Klump, sorry, Trump must have seen the video on his daily HipHopDX binge and took umbrage, choosing his preferred communication forum of Twitter to dismiss Snoop’s ‘failing career’ (he clearly hasn’t seen Snoop Lion) and suggest Obama would have given the Big Dogg jail time. Na, ah.
Can you imagine what the outcry would be if @SnoopDogg, failing career and all, had aimed and fired the gun at President Obama? Jail time!

Do not let this ‘beef’ deflect from what is a very nice song from BBNG’s excellent album, IV. Watch the incriminating video below and check out BBNG’s 5 Favourite donuts (plenty of clowning).
The single’s artwork was created by Joe Cool, the artist behind the iconic Doggystyle album artwork.
