"They say God don't put nothing on your shoulders you can't handle. I'm being tested right now, y'all. Make sure y'all pray for me and my family." Fans, friends, and peers in the rap game all began sharing their prayers and positive energy with Snoop and his family including legends like E-40, KXNG Crooked, Warren G, and more.
