Snoop Dogg’s younger brother Bing Worthington has passed away.

The 52-year-old rapper took to his Instagram to announce and mourn the tragic death of Bing, who passed away at the age of 44 from unknown causes.

Snoop paid tribute to his late brother in a series of posts, including pictures and videos from over the years.

In one of the posts, he shared a video of them in a cemetery when Bing said something that cracked everyone up.

Snoop captioned the clip, “Always made us laugh… u bac [sic] with moms.”

The Drop It Like It’s Hot hitmaker uploaded another photo of the boys with their mom, again captioning it, “bac wit momma.”

Their mother, Beverly Tate, passed away in 2021 at the age of 70.

Snoop was close with Bing, who was actually his half-brother on his mother’s side. The siblings worked together, with Bing starting out as Snoop’s roadie and making his way to the top as his tour manager.

Bing also released a few albums with his own group called Lifestyle, but he soon realised he liked being behind the scenes more.

Later, he opened his own music studio and production company.
