In the eponymous video, published in late June, the artists appeared as animated monkeys from the Otherside metaverse. The latter was created by Yuga Labs, the company behind BAYC.

In 2022 the MTV Video Music Awards added a category for “Best Metaverse Performance.” It also features Justin Bieber, Rift Tour (with Ariana Grande) and Twenty One Pilots.

Snoop Dogg is a well-known investor in collectible tokens under the pseudonym Cozomo de’ Medici. The rapper released own NFT series, including in collaboration with the creator of the Nyan Cat meme GIF, Chris Torres.

He also announced the creation of digital marijuana farms in the MOBLAND project’s metaverse and the launch of an NFT dessert store.

In January, Eminem acquired BAYC token #9055 for 123.45 ETH (more than $450,000 at the time of the deal).
