GRRRR! RASTAFARIANS ROAR OVER SNOOP LION'S NAME CHANGE, THEY SAY HE IS A FAKE RASTA

The Rastafarian Council - Custodians of the Rastafarian sect - have threatened to sue US rap icon Snoop Dogg if he doesn't drop his recently adopted moniker Snoop Lion. They are asking Snoop to revert back to Dogg, (or any other animal for that matter) and also issue an apology to the Rastafarian Community.

 Prior to the warning, former Bob Marley band member Bunny Wailer who inadvertently christened Dogg as "Lion" because he just couldn't bring himself to call the dude a "dog" had expressed his beef with Snoop for not crediting him with the new tag. Wailer told Irie FM: "You know Snoop is a dog first and I called him a lion because I couldn't call him a dog. But then he did not treat me as one who emphasized on him from being a dog to a lion and that's something I am not satisfied with."

In another interview with TMZ Bunny Wailer adds: "Snoop Dogg has engaged in“outright fraudulent use of Rastafari Community’s personalities and symbolism” — and has failed to meet “contractual, moral and verbal commitments.”

The Council makes it clear that simply being a Bob Marley fan, smoking weed and listening to reggae music does not make you a Rastafarian.
