Legendary American rapper Snoop Dogg has taken a jab at Spotify, making it clear to fans he wants them grooving to his songs on Tune.FM, of which he is the new face.
Although Snoop has over 30 million monthly Spotify listeners, he’s now focused on projecting his music on Tune.FM, saying Spotify really has no place in the preference list.
Snoop was announced as the “face” of Tune.FM on Thursday as they put down stakes in the Web3 market.
