Idk I think pac was on his way out too. he started realizing that suge was ripping him off
Also, Pac prevented people from signing there too (I think dude from Oynx was one of them)

interesting. I never really spent too much time following suge or the inner workings of deathrow. but I recall suge and pac were having a falling out over him getting more serious into acting. obviously suge wanted him to fulfill his contract duties with him releasing CD's
In the beginning of Bomb First you hear Pac say Suge shot him.
That's some real eerie shit

word,I could be wrong about that part.But I remember Suge saying(he could've been lying lol) that when he first got
Snoop he was going by Snooper Duper,but he also said go look at the Deep Cover video and see how Snoop looks
like Special Ed,Suge said it was his idea to get him a stylist and have his hair braided to give him a more "West Coast"
look.

Please don't short change the intelligence of Suge Knight. This post might be long so bear with me.
Suge Knight learned the music business(the actual business,contracts,points,etc) from Dick Griffey. Dick Griffey was
a record producer and one of the first black label owners along with Berry Gordy. He owned Solar records(Sound Of
Los Angeles Records). Dick Griffey is the one who gave Dr.Dre the studio to record The Chronic in. Suge is a former
football player and was a bodyguard of Bobby Brown. After Cube left NWA Dr.Dre took a look at his contracts and
realized he wasn't being paid properly. Ruthless was supposed to be Dre and Eazy's label but Jerry Heller came and
it became Jerry and Eazy's label. So Dre chooses to start his own label,and I think Suge met Dre through Dick Griffey.
Long story short,a lot of the Ideas and marketing of those classic Death Row albums are Suge's decisions. When Suge
met Snoop his rap name was Snooper Duper,it was Suge's idea to shorten it and add the Doggy Dogg,an also to have
his hair braided. In gang terms a "Dog" is a "Blood" and "Cuz" is a "Crip",Snoop and DPG are Crips but they call
themselves The Dogg Pound,they flipped the terminology. It was Suge's idea to even call Dre's first record The
Chronic. Harry-O always told Suge to stay behind the scenes but once he got the cover of The Source it seems like he
just got addicted to the fame.

Lool yea I've read that quote. He also said snoop wanted to be a blood but suge said "your hood got 20's, insanes and neighborhood crips, choose one. I didn't know he'll pick all 3"
Lol yea but he lied about that rap name part tho.

The bolded text is all very true, but unfortunately, Suge screwed over both Dick Griffey and Harry-O. And it only added to the label's legal problems.
Dick Griffey sued him for $125 million for breach of partnership. Harry-O's "wife" sued them on his behalf.
