Dogg says that he is grateful to two senior immigration judges, who ruled against the border authorities. He had been arrested by the border officials, following a brawl at Heathrow Airport in 2006. Reffering to his prior drug and firearms offences, the authorities later denied his entry in 2007.

Snoop Dogg, aka Calvin Broadus, challenged the decision in court.

His lawyers appealed for repealing the ban. They emphasized on Dogg's charity and community work, as a high school football coach at an Asylum and Immigration Tribunal in February.

Now, the tribunal has decided to end the ban.

"As we speak I've been reinstated and I'm on my way back to the U.K. So I wanna give a shout out to all the beautiful people who allowed me to come back," says the rapper.
