Snoop Dogg has spoken about his arrest Saturday in Uppsala, Sweden, where he was detained on suspicion of drug use and released after a urine test.
The 43-year-old rapper had just performed at a concert in the area when his car was stopped by police.
"According to the police officer, Snoop Dogg showed signs of drug influence, so he was taken to the police station for a test," police spokesman Christer Nordstrom told People. "After about an hour he was free to go."
Snoop Dogg took to Instagram in a series of videos describing the arrest as racially motivated.
"Profiling, racial profiling. Came and snatched me out of my car," he says in one clip, vowing never to return to Sweden.
"It's better to be searched and not found with nothing than not to be searched at all," he says in another video. "F** y'all."
Nordstrom said Snoop's arrest had "nothing to do with racism."
