Suge Knight Loses Deathrow Records

11/07/06

    Marion ‘Suge’ Knight, the founder of one of the most powerful and influential record labels in rap’s history – Death Row – has officially lost control of the company he set up in 1991.

    The label, which once was home to legendary rap artists such as Snoop Dogg, Tupac Shakur and Dr. Dre is in $100million debt and was handed over to a Los Angeles bankruptcy trustee after a decision by U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Ellen Carol on Friday.

    Mrs. Carol said Death Row was in financial disarray due to the absence of accounting protocol, which was the result of poor management. “It seems apparent there is no-one at the helm,” she said.”

    Knight was not present to hear the decision, although he did attempt to stall proceedings by securing distribution deals for the music owned by the label in an effort to raise funds.

    Knight testified that he had not looked at the accounts of Death Row in over ten years, that he had $11 in his bank account and roughly $28,000 worth of assets.

    External estimates put the value of Death Row anywhere between $1million and $10million.

    Laurence Strick, Knight’s lawyer, said that his client was “optimistic” and “focused.”

    The forty-one year old filed for bankruptcy in April after a ruling ordered him to pay $100million to a past business associate instrumental in establishing the label.

This Site's Mission

The site showcases Tupac Shakur, a multi-talented legend, who was born in the Bronx, New York on June 16, 1971 and died from fatal gun shot wounds in Las Vegas, Nevada on September 13, 1996.

He is considered by many to be the greatest rapper of all time. 2Pac's lyrics always went deep into the meaning of many political and social subjects including violence, drug abuse, teenage pregnancy and broken families.

2Pac was well read as noted by his extensive reading list. 2Pac's poetry also reflected his many sides, some poems were motivated by love, some sought self-understanding and others were angry responses to the cruel injustices of American society.

Not only famous for his music, he was also a well respected actor with several films.

2Pac was down to die for everything he represented. He was very open and always expressed his mind. Some people consider 2Pac a modern-day prophet. Reading some of 2Pac's interviews, lyrics and quotes, its not hard to see why.

Being real and upfront, trouble always seemed to come naturally. Tupac was charged with rape, a crime he did not commit, but was still convicted of sodomy (forcibly touching the buttocks). Many witnesses seen the girl who made these accusations voluntarily give 2Pac oral sex on a night club dance floor. Tupac was also charged with shooting two off-duty police officers, but those charges were dropped due to insufficient evidence. The fatal shooting in Vegas was the second shooting 2Pac was involved. The first occured in 1994 in New York.

Most likely, 2Pac's killer was Orlando Anderson, a south-side crip. Theories abound as to who coordinated the hit. Some believe it happened spur of the moment out of Orlando's rage. Others believe Suge Knight had 2Pac killed. The Las Vegas Times recently reported Biggie Smalls had 2Pac killed. Still others, believe it was an elaborate scheme and 2Pac is still alive (he faked his own death).

This site contains pictures of 2Pac, the latest news about 2Pac products and projects, information on 2Pac's tattoos, and anything else 2Pac related. The mission of this site is to show all sides of Tupac -- his thoughts, inspirations, and direction in life. All of this is to be shown through Tupac's lyrics, poetry, music videos and interviews. Hopefully, we can give you a better understanding of Tupac Shakur.
