Master P pulled Snoop back from making a decision that could have destroyed everything.

Master P recently reflected on his past in an interview. In it, he shared a story of how he played a role in avoiding a potential tragedy involving Snoop Dogg. The No Limit CEO elaborated further on his Instagram. Furthermore, Master P emphasized that he had a hand in diffusing the situation between Snoop and his former label Death Row Records. However, he said it was ultimately Snoop's humility and willingness to listen that saved the day.

In his interview, Master P referenced something Snoop said in his own interview with The Pivot podcast. The iconic West Coast rapper recounted the Death Row Records incident in that podcast. The rapper-producer acknowledged that he cautioned Snoop against releasing a diss record against his former label. Snoop had planned to release an album titled F*ck Death Row. However, Master P, recognizing the potential consequences, advised against it. He even recalled giving Snoop a significant sum of money. This demonstrated his support and respect. It also showed just how serious he was about trying to get Snoop not to release the diss album. Clearly, it would have meant serious repercussions for the rapper.
