Snoop Dogg was arrested in Sweden on Saturday night after being pulled over by police.
Under suspicion of driving under the influence, the rapper was detained in Uppsala, a city outside of Stockholm, according to TMZ. He was in the country for a performance.
The 43-year-old musician took to Instagram claiming that 'I ain’t did nothing' and stating that after this incident, he will not be returning to Sweden. He also called the arrest 'racial profiling.'
'Police carrying out roadside controls noticed that Snoop Dogg [whose car was pulled over] seemed to be under the influence of narcotics,' Daniel Nilsson, a police spokesman for the Uppsala region, told The Guardian. 'He was arrested and taken to the police station to take a urine test.'
Videos posted to the rapper's Instagram account document the entire incident.
The five videos range from Snoop and his entourage arguing with an officer to Snoop in the back of a police cruiser to the Snoop recapping his arrest.
Despite the wide scope of the videos, one common theme prevails throughout: Snoop Dogg is not returning to Sweden.
Backseat: Snoop appeared distressed in one of the Instagram videos as he sat in the back of a cop cruiser
With blue lights flashing in the background, one video shows Snoop in the back of a cop car expressing his anger about the situation.
'[They] pulled us over for nothing,' Snoop says, clearly flustered. '[They're] taking us to the police station where I gotta pee in a cup for nothing. I ain't did nothing!'
'All I did was came to this country and did a concert,' Snoop continues, 'and now I gotta go to the police station...for nothing!'
Post-detainment, Snoop posted another video letting his fans know that he was all right.
'I made it through,' the Doggystyle rapper confirmed. 'They took me down there, made me pee in a cup, didn't find s**t, no case no, no nothing.'
Despite Snoop's positive message to his fans, it appears that he's not in the clear just yet.
A Swedish police spokesman told TMZ that it will take two weeks for the urine test results to come in and Snoop was showing signs of driving under the influence.
Passing the drug test may come as a surprise, what with Snoop's marijuana-loving antics, but perhaps the rapper has turned a new leaf.
However, an Instagram photo posted amidst the slew of videos, features a contradicting caption: 'And I'm still smokin.'
