*Snoop Dogg’s beef with Donald Trump appears to be over now that the rapper has changed his perspective on the former president.

“He ain’t done nothing wrong to me. He has done only great things for me. He pardoned Michael Harris,” Snoop said in an interview with The Sunday Times. “So I have nothing but love and respect for Donald Trump.”

As The Huffington Post reports, Harris co-founded Death Row Records, which released Snoop’s “Doggystyle” album in 1993.  Before his sentence was commuted, Harris served 30 years of a 25-to-life sentence for conspiracy to commit first-degree murder.

Snoop was initially down with Trump after connecting on “The Apprentice” in 2007. But the hip-hop star was critical of him during his term in the White House. Snoop shared with Billboard at the time a list of issues he had with Trump as president.

“The [Muslim] ban that this motherf–er tried to put up; him winning the presidency; police being able to kill motherf–kers… and get away with it (and) people being in jail for weed for 20, 30 years,” Snoop said.

He added, “It’s a lot of clown shit going on that we could just sit and talk on the phone all day about, but it’s a few issues that we really wanted to lock into [for the video] like police, the president and just life in general.”

The rapper released a diss track in 2017 titled “M.A.C.A. (Make America Crip Again).” Trump responded with a message on x (formerly Twitter).

“Can you imagine what the outcry would be if @SnoopDogg, failing career and all, had aimed and fired the gun at President Obama? Jail time!” he wrote.
