Broken heart
Perhaps, the most potent tribute of all was when Snoop posted a video of himself seated in a dark room listening to music.
The songwriter captioned the video with a single broken heart emoji.
Hospitalised
Snoop did not share details regarding the mom's death nor whether it was as a result of her recent problems with health, but the artist revealed in May that his mom was in the hospital.
That was followed in June by a photo of the singer and his family paying her a visit, one that seemed to point to her getting better.
"Happy Sunday. My brothers and I went to see mama today and she opened up her eyes to see us and let us know she still fighting," he wrote.
He went ahead and thanked God as well as his fans for all the prayers, adding that everything was falling into place a day at a time.

She was married to Snoop's father Vernall Varnado, a war veteran and mail carrier who was mostly away from the family.
