Snoop-Lion-in-Zulu-outfit

Is Snoop doing his research before he enters into these different cultures? From Urban Islandz:

The West Coast rap legend, turn reggae star, has managed to angered the Zulu Royal family during a performance in Durban last weekend.

Snoop Lion performed at MTV Africa All Stars KZN show at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban on Saturday.

He wore a traditional leopard-skin print (isikhumba sengwe).

According to the Daily Sun, the royal suits should only be worn by King Goodwill Zwelithini or by someone who has been honoured by the royal house.

MTV spokeswoman Alison Reid has since apologize for the incident.

“MTV Base apologises if anyone was offended by Snoop wearing traditional Zulu garb on Saturday night,” Reid said. “The outfit in question was a gift from a member of the Zulu royal family and a number of members of the royal family joined Snoop on stage. We believe that his homage to Zulu culture was received positively by all concerned, including the royal family.”
