Video After The Jump
BBC Radio One's Tim Westwood caught up with the one and only Snoop Dogg after a recent show in London. The two got a chance to catch up on old times.
It had been a minute since the Doggfather had a chance to touch down in the UK after being banned due to several run-ins with the law.
Tim asked him how it felt when he first heard he had been banned from the country.
"That broke my heart not to be able to come out her and see the people who mean so much to me," Snoop said. "It was personal, I felt like it was a slap in the face from the people who loved me. But through the grace of God and time and spirit I'm back where I need to in the UK at home."
Snoop spoke on being able to tour Britain with Diddy back in the day, putting the East Coast vs West Coast rivalry to bed. He said it's possible he and Puff might do it again in the future.
Snoop would also like to help end gang violence in the UK.
"I can definitely do something positive with the gangs in the UK. I would like to put together a concert to try to help end some of this violence and some of this misunderstanding out here because I come from that life you know. So in the near future I'll be getting my mind, my plan and my team together to come over here and do some things that would be effective with ending some of this nonsense and this violence that does not need to be happening."
Snoop is definitely on a real positive vibe these days and it's good to see that.
