Celebrity NFTs on the rise

Entertainment and sports personalities are embracing NFTs to build fan engagement and reward fan loyalty. 

Snoop Dogg collaborated with Transient Labs to release a new NFT collection called ‘The Snoop Dogg Passport Series’ this month. The collection, which was released ahead of the rapper’s summer tour, grant users and holders exclusive access to events, behind-the-scenes content and merchandise.

Speaking to Variety, Snoop Dogg expressed his enthusiasm for the new series. “With the Passport Series, I can give my fans the opportunity to travel the world with me — no one’s ever done that…I’ve always been a pioneer, and digital merch is part of the future. I’m hoping other artists can see what I’m doing and continue to innovate on their own,” he said.
