set Puffy up with that loan for Bad Boy.

Suge and them had Russell Simmons running scurred. Russ and crew signed anything from Cali period.

got triple Platinum off of Warren G,and sad Warren couldn't get his stuff put on on death row.

Montell Jordan got triple plat and Russell got him out.


oh Man Suge had turkeys Scurred.

Jodecci,Mary J Bliege, were all going to Suge to get contracts down over on uptown records.
Suge was Muscle man and he got alot of things down.

back then Jimmy Iovine and his then music partner Ted Fields had no clue about the rap game, however they knew Money and Suge and Dr Dre were big time money. that is why Iovine hung on to Dr Dre after all of these years.

anyway man from Bad Boy to Murder Inc and everybody else in between death row was that benchmark.


you know about the Snoop Bidding war and how Master P had to deal with Suge and Suge got a Dollar off of every Snoop Album until Snoop was on Star Trek with Pharell and them.

Jay Z back before he hit was going out checking out Suge.

if Suge Knight ever wrote a true tell all book, it might shut down half the industry.

still amazed how Suge out hustled a cat like Dick Griffey who was the Suge of his time with Solar Records.

so many stories of things.

and folks don't mention the D.O.C. impact on death row early on.

so many cats doing things.
