Snoop Dogg is one of the most prominent personalities of West Coast hip-hop culture and has won numerous accolades, including an Emmy. The rap icon won the prestigious award once in 2022 for his halftime show performance at The Pepsi Super Bowl LVI.

The high-spirited performance at Inglewood's Sofi Stadium featured fellow recording artists and rappers - 50 Cent, Eminem, Dr. Dre, Kendrick Lamar, and Mary J. Blige. Snoop and his friends received the Emmy Award in the 'Outstanding Variety Special' category.

This was not the first time Snoop Dogg had his name associated with the Emmys as he had also been nominated beside East Coast model, Martha Stewart, in 2017. The duo worked together on the show, Martha & Snoop's Potluck Dinner Party, which premiered as a VH1 series on November 7, 2016.

The three-season show got Snoop and Martha their shared nomination for the 2017 Emmy Awards. While the duo was nominated in the 'Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality-Competition Program' category, it did not turn into a win.


Snoop Dogg's Super Bowl LVI performance, awards received, nominations, and more

Snoop Dogg's Emmy-winning performance at The Pepsi Super Bowl LVI was the first time in Super Bowl history that the halftime show was based around rap and hip-hop music. Moreover, a massive crew of over 400 volunteers and professional dancers support the live performance at the Sofi Stadium.

While the game between NFC champions Los Angeles Rams and AFC champions Cincinnati Bengals had already caused the stadium to be sold out, the halftime show was also telecasted to engage fans nationwide.

Fans across the country streamed the performance live on NBC and enjoyed thrilling acts of tracks including In Da Club, Still D.R.E., California Love, No More Drama, Family Affair, and M.a.a.D City.

Rolling Stone Magazine ranked The award-winning show as the fourth-best halftime show ever. The 2022 halftime show of Snoop Dogg and Friends was right behind Beyoncé at the third spot, U2 at second, and Prince's 2007 show at first.
