On Friday, Australia’s immigration department announced that California rapper Snoop Dogg has been granted a visa to enter Australia for an upcoming concert tour.

The department took into account the fact that Snoop had traveled to Australia three times without incident:

“In making this decision, the department weighed his criminal convictions against his previous behavior while in Australia, recent conduct—including charity work—and any likely risk to the Australian community. We took into account all relevant factors and, on balance, the department decided to grant the visa.”

Take that, Oz Snoop protesters!

We hope Snoop totally follows through with his pledged commitment to do charity work with at-risk youth during his visit to the land down under!

The Dogg plans to tour the country with Ice Cube and Bone Thugs-N-Harmony in October.

Behave, boys!

If all goes well in Oz, Snoop, England might change its tune on you too!.
