Snoop Dogg<\/a> will be performing at a series of Sydney venues in the aftermath of his AFL Grand Final appearance.<\/p>\n

Immediately after his gig at the MCG he is set to board a plane to Sydney for a gig in the Hills District.<\/p>\n

The night of September 27, which is the day of the AFL Grand Final, he will do a one-hour DJ set at Bella Live in Bella Vista.<\/p>\n

“This is your chance to see the global icon up close \u2014 in The Hills,” an Instagram post from the website read.<\/p>\n

Tickets go on sale on Tuesday at 10am.<\/p>\n

The rapper will then perform a DJ set at the Greenwood Hotel in North Sydney on Sunday night.<\/p>\n

Pre-sales for the event don’t begin until 6pm the day before, with the price not yet revealed.<\/p>\n

It comes as he comes under fire for his homophobic remarks in both his music and a recent podcast.<\/p>\n

Greens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young called for Snoop’s AFL performance to be cancelled.<\/p>\n

“Why is it that the AFL is bringing in an international artist \u2014 a slur merchant \u2014 paying them $2 million, rather than backing Aussie talent?” she said.<\/p>\n

“The AFL has decided for the grand final, rather than putting on an Australian artist, they’re going to pay Snoop Dogg $2 million to play at the Grand Final.”<\/p>\n

The AFL has been criticised for the hypocrisy of booking the rapper at the same time it suspended a star player over an on-field homophobic slur.<\/p>\n

Crows forward Izak Rankine was suspended for four games, costing the star a role in a likely finals run for Adelaide.<\/p>\n
