Apparently Suge Knight is digging Jayo Felony's brash style. On the Death Row Records Web site, Jayo is given an open invitation to join them.
The site reads:
Wanted
Jay-O Felony
To become a Deathrow inmate!
For showing Bitch-a-- Snoop that it
takes more than a couple of rent-a-Crips
to be a gangsta!
A source close to Jayo confirmed that the rapper has been in discussions with Suge, but Death Row publicist Jonathan Wolfson said he's unaware of any negotiations that would bring Jayo to the label.
However, Jayo will be featured dissing Snoop Dogg on the label's July 31 release of Tha Dogg Pound 2002, Wolfson said. The album is a collection of songs that Dogg Pound members Daz and Kurupt recorded while still with Death Row.
"I don't know nothin' about that," Daz said. "More power to them. I'm 'a get paid off it. I got a deal when I left that I walked with all [my masters]. They could put it out, but I still get all mine. I want to hear what he got."
Daz and Kurupt, who were legally obligated to change their name to the D.P.G. when they left Death Row, released Dillinger & Young Gotti on May 1. Daz, who is in the final stages of his own contract negotiations with Roc-a-Fella Records, said he isn't worried about the old album competing with the new one.
"[Death Row putting out an album will] probably make both of them sell. Everybody already knows what Death Row does because of what happened with Snoop. I'm just gonna ride off their promotion. [Suge's] probably gonna put out a bunch of remixes. He ain't got nothing else. If a bum has a piece of something in the trash, he's gonna make it last. He messed up and lost a good thing. But for now we got this new D.P.G. album out there."
Wolfson said that on Tuesday Death Row will release the long-talked-about reissues of its entire catalog, which includes Snoop Dogg's Doggystyle, Dr. Dre's The Chronic, Tupac Shakur's Makaveli and Tha Dogg Pound's debut, Dogg Food. The label also plans to put out a Tupac double CD of unreleased songs later this year, he said.

interesting huh, Daz was smart and took all his masters, so this new album will probably be some bullshit remixes like the new Pac album was.
and that comment about the bum/trash was dope HAHAHA
-
No Dogg Pound Album since '95
And now we (hopefully) get 3 in one year!
-
Snoop Won't Drop That Doggystyle Records DPG Album This Year, After This... So Basically, It'll Keep Doggystyle Records From Releasing A DPG Album...
GEE, Wonder If Suge Meant To Do That?!?
-
Why will it stop him?
-
Because It's Too Many Albums...
Besides Us Hardcore Fans, Who's Gonna Buy 3 Different Albums From The Same Group In 6 Months?
-
Death Row Had That All Planned Out Snoop Probably Will Hold Back The DPGC Album And If He Did Release It. It Would Probably Sell Half As Many Copies Plus People Know "Tha Dogg Pound" More Then They Know "DPGC". Dont Be Suprised If Anyday Now Jayo Felony Is Announced To Be Signed To Death Row. Death Row Will Ride On Anyone Whos Down With Them. Jayo Felony Wont Be Big Either Way. Since Death Row Singed All Its So-Called Fresh Young Talent I Guess No They're Trying To Sign Has Been Rappers. Dre'sta Jayo
-
Like Daz says hes gonna eat off both albums so in tha long run he gonna make money, which is what its about.
Unless tha row release a bullshit album and everyones who aint heard them starts to believe DPG are wack.
Peace
-
Exactly, Daz told the truth. All Suge can do is try make money off past Death Row inmates
SUGE, thou i would like another DPG album, why dont you concentrate on releasing your own artists shit instead of holding them back & putting them on weak Remix's on past inmate albums.
Suge is an idiot
-
I hope it's not remixes like Daz claims...I bet the Death row one will sell more than the DPG Recordz one because of Distrubution...I hope not though...
-
Suge is always fuckin with people. Its startin to make him look pathetic. If the DR Dogg Pound album looks decent I may cop it.
-
Nah, The DR DPG Album Won't Sell Better, Because They're Distribution Sucks Too.
DMW & TGFR Didn't Sell SHIT
-
Yea, D3 sux cock...
