The 'Sensual Seduction' singer has strong opinions about former US President Bill Clinton and presidential candidate Barack Obama, but doesn't want them to play a big part in his music.
He said: "I feel like all these political things affect me, but I don't need to be crying and s**t on my records."
Snoop also said he felt Bill Clinton was a great US President because he recognised there was a racial problem in the country.
He added to Britain's The Guardian newspaper: "Clinton was the closest we are going to get to the first black president. He related to black needs and black values, black understanding and racism. He was from Little Rock in Arkansas.
"That's a black-dominated world. He was part of us. That's why everyday was happy when he was in office. It was just the funnest time in the world. Everything worked."
