The Doggfather is hoping to use his influence to end the beef between The Game and Ras Kass. The two men were involved in a physical confrontation in a Los Angeles nightclub earlier this year. Snoop Dogg told MTV.com, "To me that's a minor situation. No disrespect, but Ras Kass is minor right now. I understand he's trying to get back in the game, but it's gotta be another route. Let's not try to get into it with the man that's on top right now. That's my view of it. Ras Kass is a lyricist, he's got lyrics, he's known for making songs -- he don't have to dis Game. At the same time, Game don't have to dis him, because you already in the game, you already known. People gonna buy your records anyway."

The rapper added, "We gonna end all of that. Ras Kass, if you listening or seeing this, we need to figure out a way to get a understanding. Game already got a understanding. He's gonna do what I say, because that's my little homeboy and we on the same page. Ras, I ain't never talk to you about it, so I'm reaching out to you, little homie. Let's figure out a way to get this thing together and over with. You only cutting your money in half. 'Cause don't nobody buy your records right now. So let's make it to where they will buy your records, not off of dissin', but from making good music."

In related news, Snoop Dogg was scheduled to be arraigned on Monday, December 4th for carrying a 20-inch collapsible baton in his luggage at John Wayne Airport in California in September. The arraignment was postponed until January 24th. The rapper, who is free on $150,000 bail, claims the baton was a prop from a movie on which he was working.
