TMZ reported Snoop Dogg and Worthington were half brothers through their mother.
Worthington once worked as a roadie for his brother while he was on tour.
He eventually became Snoop Dogg’s tour manager.
TMZ further reported Worthington eventually launched his own music career, and at one point founded a record label in Canada, and that he enjoyed the business side of the music industry, rather than being in front of people.
