Rejecting Michael Jordan’s $2000000 Worth Offer, Rap Mogul … – EssentiallySports

Here’s a $2 million question. If you had the chance to meet Michael Jordan, would you turn it down? Very few would. But there does exist a person who actually did. And he did it with style. The person who didn’t care to meet His Airness is a multi-hyphenate GOAT himself. A lot of people pay to watch him perform and he has the swagger to turn down whoever he pleases.

A sports media veteran brought back this story in a Twitter thread that has thousands of shares. The hip-hop mogul who could easily decline MJ is none other than Snoop Dogg. And many want to know why.

Snoop Dogg once rejected an expensive offer from Jordan

Michael Jordan and Snoop Dogg are titans in their respective fields. Fans would pay to watch them perform. Both are successful in multiple ventures. Yet these two pop culture icons haven’t crossed paths. Frank Michael Smith revealed why on Twitter. As it turns out, Snoop Dogg had the opportunity to meet Michael Jordan.

It’s a story he’s revealed before but now Smith has given more insight. It isn’t specified when, but the NBA champion wanted to book the multimillion-selling artist for an event. He even offered $2 million for the gig.

Calvin Broadus declined to perform at the event. When the music mogul shared this story on Logan Paul’s Impaulsive podcast, he explained the main reason was scheduling conflicts. But it goes deeper than that.

“I don’t wanna meet him like I’m out there DJing…I wanna meet him as a fan, as a boss,” he told the YouTuber. It still sounds surreal that someone would decline Jordan.

And as humble as he wants to be when he does finally meet Jordan, Snoopy did say on the podcast, “I had way more customers before I get to you.” Despite his humble claims, Calvin had given a different reason for never meeting MJ.

Snoop won’t “fraternize” with Michael Jordan

When Tom Brady was on Snoop’s podcast, the rapper reiterated he never met the NBA legend despite sitting courtside in multiple NBA games.

And it’s because Jordan played for the enemy. “I’m a Lakers fan. I’m not gonna be trying to go fraternize with him.”

But when Broadus turned down Jordan’s event, he made sure that the Chicago Bulls star would not be offended. “It’s like, ‘Mike, I’ve loved you since North Carolina. I’m a big fan of yours, I love what you do, you one of the greatest to ever do it,’” Snoop apparently had to say for Jordan.

If he had the opportunity to meet MJ, Snoop had a list of things he wants to ask. Like “Give me a couple of secrets on how you did this. Can I get a picture with you?’” Typical fan stuff. Are you waiting for these two to meet already?
