Snoop Dogg recently settled a lawsuit filed against his former label, Priority Records, back in 2006.
According to reports, both parties came to an agreement over a lawsuit involving fees and advances for a 1998 recording agreement.
"I don't believe a settlement would have been reached unless both sides were happy," said David Steinberg, Priority's lawyer.
