Ever imagined a smoke session so intense it literally takes your vision away? That’s exactly what happened to British pop star Ed Sheeran, who recently opened up about a hazy night with none other than West Coast rap icon Snoop Dogg.
Yes, you read that right—Ed Sheeran temporarily lost his sight after matching lungs with one of the most legendary cannabis connoisseurs in music history.
Let’s unpack the story, how it came to light, and what it reveals about the crossover between pop culture, celebrity bonding, and the ever-evolving weed narrative.
🌿 “I Couldn't See Anything”: Ed Sheeran Shares Wild Snoop Dogg Moment
Sheeran shared the eye-popping anecdote in a recent TikTok video, giving fans a candid look at his surreal experience hanging out with the “Drop It Like It’s Hot” rapper. In the clip, Snoop can be seen casually rolling what appears to be a joint. Ed captioned it:
“Last time I smoked with Snoop, I lost my ability to see.”
It wasn’t some poetic metaphor. Ed literally blacked out—for a moment at least—after sharing smoke with Snoop. The incident underscores the rapper’s infamous tolerance level, which has become part of his personal brand over the years.
🚬 Snoop’s “No Smoke” Prank & His Weed Legacy
Fans of Snoop might remember his viral post last year claiming he was “giving up smoking.” The internet practically exploded—until the twist came a few days later.
Turns out, Snoop was just trolling. The reveal? It was part of an ad campaign for smokeless fire pits. He wasn’t quitting weed—he was quitting smoke. Classic Snoop.
For context, the rapper has long been a cultural symbol for marijuana advocacy. From music videos to memes, Snoop’s image is practically synonymous with rolling papers and hazy clouds. So it’s no surprise that even a seasoned global pop star like Sheeran couldn’t quite keep up.
🔥 Burna Boy Joins the Hall of Heavy Smokers
Snoop isn’t the only artist Sheeran’s puffed with. In a past interview, the “Perfect” singer pointed to Nigeria’s own Burna Boy as one of the “heaviest” weed users he’s encountered in the studio.
The two share a creative history. They collaborated on Stormzy’s hit single "Own It" (which topped UK charts), and again on Burna’s deeply personal track "For My Hand" from the Love, Damini album.
Clearly, Ed's been in some smoky rooms with musical heavyweights—each experience adding a new chapter to his off-stage adventures.
😎 Celebs, Cannabis, and Culture: More Than Just a Smoke Session
While Ed Sheeran’s story is humorous (and slightly alarming), it also shines a light on how weed culture in entertainment has evolved. Once taboo, cannabis is now part of open conversations, branding, and even music collaboration.
From rap to Afrobeats to pop, artists are blending personal rituals—like smoking—with their creative processes. And for fans, stories like these offer a rare peek behind the curtain into what really happens after the studio lights go out.
🚨 What’s the Takeaway?
If you ever find yourself in a room with Snoop Dogg and he offers you a puff… maybe pace yourself—or just say no. Even Ed Sheeran couldn’t walk away with his eyesight intact!
