“Young dogg with. Kurt,” he wrote in the caption.

Snoop Dogg has yet to comment on the allegations, so it probably is likely that he has no idea the photo was fake. It’s unclear if he did ever meet Cobain and maybe engage in a smoke session, but it is possible considering both of their star power in the ‘90s.
