1. Usually the CEO of the label
2.???
3. I'm not sure about that one
4. The CEO of the label
5. The executive producer of the album
6. The CEO

Well I'm sure during '92-'96 Dr. Dre and Suge Knight had the most input on Death Row projects since they were the founders of the label. Seriously during The Chronic and Doggystyle years, if any of you were listening to Hip Hop back then, you would know Suge wasn't out in the "public" and Dre was known as the owner of Death Row. I remember in '95 The Source ran an article on Death Row and that was the first time I heard that Suge co-owned the label with Dre.

Suge was on the cover of the Source with Dre years before that. It was fairly well known he co-owned the label, he just wasn't flaunting it like he did years later

Thanks for your great contribution to the thread.

Anyway, don't forget Interscope/Priority, depending on who Death Row was with at the time, also had say about certain things.
