While speaking on the "Business Untitled" podcast, Snoop Dogg shared insights into how he expanded his brand by learning from past errors, reports the Express US . He said: "I never try to do things that everybody else has done."

"I always do things that I do...It's a certain gift that I have and a skill that I acquired from doing bad business. For many years of taking the wrong deal or not looking over a contract or just jumping into a situation or using my name and likeness for the wrong reasons. Just becoming a better businessman and people around me that are smarter than me."

Following these business strategies, Snoop Dogg disclosed that there was a time when filing for bankruptcy was suggested to him, but he decided against it. He went on to say, "It was a time in my career where it got so bad where my accountant was like, 'We should just do bankruptcy'."

"And my pride got involved, like f--- that. If I say bankruptcy, then I look like I f----- off everything."

After facing his own financial challenges, Snoop Dogg has become a strong proponent of teaching financial literacy in schools.
