Snoop Dogg Is In Shock. With Heavy Hearts, We Announce The Passing

Snoop Dogg, one of the founders of gangster rap, has not only made a name for himself in music but also in movies and Hollywood hits. Recently, he is in shock and mourning after the passing of his half-brother, Bing Worthington. Bing, who was 44 years old, had a significant impact on Snoop’s career and life.

Bing Worthington was born on May 4, 1979, in California. He met his future wife, Mymy Jordan, at Long Beach High School, and they eventually got married. They have a son together, but they chose to keep his name and birth date private.

Bing started his career in the music industry as a roadie for Snoop Dogg’s shows. He later became Snoop’s tour manager, playing a crucial role in organizing and managing tours. Bing was also a musician himself and was part of the group Lifestyle. The group released an album called Liquid Cocaine in 2003, and one of their songs was featured on the soundtrack for the movie Van Wilder 2.

In a 2016 interview with Vice, Bing shared that releasing the album made him realize his talent for managing the music business. He mentioned how he enjoyed meeting new people and handling the business side of music more than performing on stage. This realization led him to focus on the behind-the-scenes aspects of the music industry.

Bing also contributed to Snoop Dogg’s music. He co-wrote the song “Be Thankful” for Snoop’s rap group Tha Eastsidaz, which he considered his most important musical contribution. Eventually, Bing decided to give up his dreams of becoming a rapper and dedicated himself to the business side of music. By 2016, he had moved to Canada and merged his studio and production company, Dogg Records, with Miguel Lopez’s hip-hop label, Urban Heat Legends.

Snoop Dogg and Bing shared a close bond. Snoop has two half-brothers: Jerry Wesley Carter and Bing Worthington. After Bing’s death, Snoop expressed his grief on Instagram on February 16, 2024. He posted two heartfelt messages.

In the first post, Snoop shared a video clip from a cemetery where he was talking and laughing with Bing, their brother Jerry, and their sister. Snoop captioned the post, “@badabing33 always made us laugh u bac with moms,” along with a blue heart, a prayer, and a crying face emoji. In the second post, Snoop shared a picture of him posing with Bing in a green room, accompanied by a dove and a prayer emoji.

The cause of Bing’s death remains unknown. Bing’s passing at the age of 44 is a significant loss for Snoop Dogg, who is now 52 years old. Despite their age difference, the two brothers shared a deep connection, and Bing’s influence on Snoop’s life and career was substantial.
