Reports are that Snoop Lion, formerly known as Snoop Dogg, has allegedly ticked off the Rastafarian society who claims he lied about becoming a Rasta just so he can make a movie and sell records and now they are allegedly threatening to sue him.

Renowned Rastafarian artiste Bunny Wailer, an original member of Bob Marley and the Wailers reportedly told sources that he is heated about the docu-film "Reincarnated", which documented Snoop's immersion in the Rasta culture as he recorded his first reggae album in Jamaica last year.

It is said that Bunny claims that Snoop has engaged in outright fraudulent use of the Rastafari Community's personalities and symbolism, and has failed to meet contractual, moral and verbal commitments to the culture.

Bunny apparently is not the only one who is torn up about the situation but also leaders of the Ethio-Africa Diaspora Union Millennium Council also known as the Rastafari Millennium Council, which has reportedly sent Snoop a 7-page demand letter.

According to reports, in the letter they claim to have made it clear to Snoop that "smoking weed and loving Bob Marley and reggae music is not what defines the Rastafari Indigenous Culture”Bottom of Form

It is said that at the end of the day, they want Snoop to stop using the name "Lion", pay up the financial and moral support they claim he committed, and issue a public apology. If Snoop refuses these demands he will be sued.

:lol:

Now that I know he's making a movie about this, I can't help but think it's going to be something along the lines of Borat, only unintentional.
