Them black folks don’t want poison promoted by a gangbanger on display in their community.

Can’t knock that

The marketing is working exactly as intended. You're talking about the product even if it's in the context of "that display is offensive and reinforces bad stereotypes"

Snoop bottle been around for a while. The execution of the display is trash and done on purpose. That was a trash display and done with the intention to be disrespectful.

So this a marketing stunt

I'm confused, what's offensive about a store selling a black man's wine

*edit* just saw the display. All they have to do is remove the black history month sign.

”19 crimes”

There's no such thing as bad attention in the marketing world. They'll let it get viral enough until they're trending on social media then get snoop out to do a half ass YouTube style apology and then sit back and watch as their sales go up.

All snoop had to do was insist they cleaned up his image. Why didn't he?

I knew that brand name would stir up some controversy eventually.

The other bottles I've seen have white criminals figures on them.

True. However, there are plenty of black owned wine and liquor distributors doing good business out here.

Snoop does not care about this stuff. If he did, he would not have endorsed a bottle named 19 crimes as a former active gang member. The optic alone, is trash.

I agree. Some people can tell the black community is finished so they just getting money before the ship sinks.
