Snoop Has 'No Regrets' Over Old Sexist Lyrics

Snoop Dogg, who was once accused of promoting misogyny by chat show queen Oprah Winfrey, has told Sky News his attitude towards women has changed.

But the US rapper insisted he does not regret portraying women in a negative light in past lyrics of his songs.

He said: "Definitely, my attitude has changed towards women.

"I am more sensitive and more vulnerable writing-wise and accepting a woman for being a beautiful person, as opposed to me saying she is a b**** or a w**** because that was how I was trained when I first started, so I have no regrets.

"As I grew I fell in love with my wife and started to love my mother, my grandmother and my daughter.

"I understood what a woman was and I started to write about and express that."

Snoop revealed he has learned to "live a better life" after realising it was his "job" to "better himself".

"Once I figured out there was room to grow and learn and to be a better person then I incorporated that in everything I was doing," he said.

"I don't feel like you can be ashamed or mad about not knowing - if you don't know, you don't know."
