One of the pioneering figures of gangster rap, Snoop Dogg rose from the streets of Long Beach to become a global cultural icon, known not only for his groundbreaking music but also for his ventures into acting, television, and numerous Hollywood blockbusters. Behind much of his success, however, stood his younger brother, Bing Worthington—a man whose life, though cut tragically short, left an enduring mark on those who knew him and on Snoop’s career itself.
Bing Worthington was born on May 4, 1979, in California, stepping into a world that would one day see him become a vital figure in the hip-hop community. From a young age, he was surrounded by music, creativity, and a strong family connection. Those who knew him described him as loyal, grounded, and deeply committed to the people he loved.
During his teenage years, Bing attended Long Beach High School, where fate brought him together with Mymy Jordan. Their friendship quickly blossomed into a romantic relationship, and the two would go on to marry, building a quiet but close life together. It has been said that they welcomed a son into their family, but out of a desire to protect his privacy, they never shared the boy’s name or date of birth with the public.
Bing’s connection to music wasn’t just through his famous brother—it was his own passion. In his early years, he threw himself into the behind-the-scenes world of hip-hop, working as a roadie for Snoop Dogg’s shows. These were long days and nights, filled with hard work, travel, and the energy of live performances. Yet Bing thrived in that environment, learning the ins and outs of the music business firsthand.
Over time, his dedication and reliability earned him more responsibility. He moved up from being a trusted road crew member to becoming Snoop Dogg’s tour manager—an important role that required skill, organization, and an unshakable sense of trust. Bing was there for countless tours, ensuring that each event ran smoothly and that his brother could focus on the art that made him a legend.
Sadly, Bing’s life came to a heartbreaking end at the age of 44, leaving behind a family, friends, and a legacy built on loyalty, love, and hard work. Those closest to him remember him not only as Snoop Dogg’s brother, but as a man who played an essential role in shaping the journey of one of music’s most enduring stars. His contributions may not have always been in the spotlight, but they were woven into the very fabric of Snoop’s success—a legacy that will not be forgotten.
