Snoop Dogg Settles Suit With Priority Records

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.

In 2006, Snoop Dogg filed a lawsuit against Priority, claiming the label owed him 2 million in royalties and $950,000 advance money from his 2000 album, Tha Last Meal. Furthermore, he says the label released a hits album without his consent.

Just this March, a judge issued a ruling, ordering both sides to settle the dispute within three weeks, or it would go to trial.

At the time, both sides revealed they were close to reaching a settlement.

The terms of the agreement were not released.
