Dave Blunts, a 23-year-old rapper, recently gained attention after a viral moment during his performance at the 4th Annual Juice WRLD Day concert in Chicago.
This event was held as a tribute to the late rapper Juice WRLD, who passed away in 2019. What stood out during Dave’s performance was that he was seated on stage with an oxygen tank by his side. This sparked concern among his fans and debates online about his health and lifestyle.
The viral photo featured Dave Blunts and his girlfriend, Isabella. While some fans were empathetic, worried about his health, and commended his courage to perform despite apparent struggles, others were critical.
Negative comments ranged from mocking his physical appearance to questioning the authenticity of his relationship with Isabella, implying that his fame and wealth played a significant role in their bond.
Amid the controversy, Dave addressed the situation directly during his performance. He asked the crowd, “Chicago! Do y’all have a problem with me sitting down on this stage?”
The audience responded with support, and he continued by addressing his critics, particularly targeting Snoop Dogg: “Exactly – so get the f*** off my d***, Snoop Dogg. You don’t know what it’s like to fight for your life every damn day.”
This public exchange added fuel to an ongoing feud between Dave Blunts and the 53-year-old rap legend Snoop Dogg. Their conflict began in November when Snoop shared a video on Instagram mocking Dave.
In the clip, Snoop commented on Dave’s seated performance, saying, “Put down the chicken wings and Tata chips, Nefew. That chair gonna break soon.” This remark not only insulted Dave’s size but also implied a lack of discipline in his lifestyle.
Dave didn’t stay silent. He responded with a pointed message: “I got demons, and a tank to prove it. Don’t come for me when you have been blessed and enough to be here that long; respect the struggle.
