Title: Suge Knight
Post by: Biggzy on April 18, 2009, 12:16:01 PM
alotta ppl hate Big Suge but they 4get wat he did 4 hip hop n the westcoast.. he put the west on the map!!! alotta these ungreatfull motherfukaz bitin the hand that fed em n havent done shit since they left deathrow..

has snoop released anything like doggystyle ever since???
the dpg r wack as fuck n the only shit that was half decent was on deathow..
suge n deathrow put albums out- real street shit.. with deathrow behind em these artists went all out n repped the west to the fullest, but nowadays snoop dont rep the west! he lives in ny! he aint in longbeach!

suge gave mothafukaz with talent a platform, ppl who wouldnt get anywhere!! he gave ex-cons a means to feed they family coz no 1 gonna give a black ex-con a job no place!

alotta u fuckerz r ungrateful 4 wat suge did for the west coz as i can gather u all dpg fans.. but u need a reality check!!!

deathrow was the label n suge took it n the west to the top.. theres 2 much 2 write in 1 post but its SAD 2 see that such a great empire n dynasty had 2 collapse coz of sellouts n corporate america!! n wat the fuk does wideawake know about deathrow n street music!! they just gonna destroy the catalogue n release some wack shit!! hiphop will never b the same..

How much did Suge pay you to make this post?

BTW: You do realize that Suge never released half the material that is in the vaults, I suppose you want it to sit there forever. I applaud WIDEAwake for reaching out to the artists and fans the way they are. I guess you just don't want to hear unreleased music.

if they gave the man a chance 2 maybe he would have released alotta shit...
he was spendin most of the time behind bars...
the man was becomin 2 powerful! he was the only ceo who had somethin like 5 multiplatinums out of 5 whereas in the insdustry 2 get like 3 out of 10 was regarded as major success..
n dont gimme that bullshit that dre made deathrow- he aint do shit the fukin homo...
there were producers like johnny j (rip), darren vegas, big hutch who produced better shit!!

btw, suge dnt need me to post this shit.. that shit is fact!

After snoop and dre, what did suge do for crooked i and nina and eastwood etc.. no albums to show for faggot. 10 years has passed for death row and you wanna complain this now? i hope wideawake releases ALL that music so you can continue to get mad. why dont u go hold up a liquor store.

i agree, suge didn't have much of a chance with all his legal shit goin on and did a good job of putting Crooked, Kurupt, Left eye and whatever else on a roster in the first place for a new foundation.  i can see why people may not like the guy but there's no doubt that deathrow music is not the same without Suge

Come on man, all these artists recorded so much and when Suge wasn't in jail he couldn't get stuff on the shelves. We gave him long enough, too many disappointments. He dug his own hole, you acting like it's WIDEAwake's fault or anyone else that drove his company into the ground.

BTW: How is Death Row music not the same without Suge? He didn't make the music, especially the music that was made when he was locked up. I could care less if I bought a Death Row CD that said "Big Simon" on the back, forget the hype, I'm in it for the music.

haha the biggest Crooked I fan saying Suge was a dissapointment because he didnt put music out and he had long enough to do it?  that sounds more like Crook to me

just because he wasn't able to get a Crook cd out doesn't take away the multiple multi-platinum albums he did put out.  suge fucked up a few times but i'd say he made a good living from where he started.  and if any of you really believe he's broke now, you've gotta be kidding me.  how come he's got the best lawyers?

Man....Suge was THE MAN back in the day...Dre would never have been able to leave Ruthless without him and Snoop probably would have signed with another label.. We swould never have had The Chronic or Doggystyle without Suge and his strong armed tactics.. As far as Pac, despite all the hype, dude was just icing on the cake..The dynasty was already built and signing pac was like the Lakers signing Chris Paul or something....Having said all that, Suge was also the reason for the demise of DeathRow and it's kind of sad that dude could not realize that you can't have your superstars (Dre, Snoop) not comfortable coming to work cause you got the workplace loaded with niggas (mostly Bloods) who want nothing but to start shit all the time. Dre left, Pac was gonna leave and Snoop left when he got the chance...Suge should get his share of the credit for the rise and success of DR but Suge should get all of the blame for the demise...By the way, Suge might still have some cake but not like Dre, Jay-Z and Puff...That is why he is only able to afford to party in the streets of LA (gettin his chin checked lately) while Dre probably just goes out of the country whenever he wants to party...In his darkest moments, Suge has to know that he fucked up.

I think a lot of snoop and dre fans are quick to forget that suge is the reason dre and snoop were big.It was suges westcoast.But the man lived a life that could only result in a negative fashion.He was extremely dangerous and was untouchable.That night in Vegas was the end.As for not releasing anything,let's face it he was black balled from the industry and for good reason.He was under FBI watch constantly and any label that fucked with swiftly got FBI cases.If it wasn't for the goverment interference death row would have had a second dynasty.Hate him or love you can't deny without him the westcoast reign would never have happened.dre,snoop,dpg all owe their careers to him.theirs a reason kurupt went back.

And dre wouldn't have done shit if suge hadn't saved him from ruthless...
ehm, Dre already had a career :P

and suge had some business sense, but it was not enough to save the label.
not to mention that death row was founded the wrong way in the first place.

and Dre was an idiot for secretly leaving Ruthless, as no major label wanted to sign him due to his legal problems with Ruthless.

he should have renegotiated with Ruthless, that could have gotten him a better deal......

Executive Produced by Suge Knight means in 1992 - 1997 great music!! you cant compare it to aftermath or other shitty label today. Death Row was like a religion for a lot of people. it was like a war symbol against the mainstream in every place in the world...

  Uh, the West Coast was already on the map for years before there was even a Death Row. Suge helped bring it to the next level with Death Row but let's not pretend like he single-handedly reinvented the face of music. The guy got shit done, no question, but the artists, producers, and others involved helped as well.

That's part of the problem. In its most popular stages, Death Row was as mainstream as every other label that other people criticize. People prefer its sound over the stuff that replaced it over the next decade and change but while they were a change from some of the more traditional labels, they were still a mainstream label that was under the umbrella of one of the biggest record companies in the world. As a businessman, Suge was like none other but there was practically a guaranteed shelf life to how long that would last.

When you have Dr. Dre whose name value as a producer is worth millions and you're continuing to roll out platinum releases, people will kind of let you behave in whatever manner you want. Success allows people a kind of freedom. There's too much money involved for the labels to care whether Suge really smacked somebody up or not.

I think the "blackball" situation is a little convient in some cases. I think the Murder Inc / Death Row / Rap-A-Lot deal didn't happen because it was three powerful CEO's who couldn't come to a business agreement. Three labels like that means three egos. Bottom line if the deal was worth money to Def Jam, Interscope, or whoever, they would have taken it. I'm definitely not arguing that labels were weary of doing business with Knight because of how the F.B.I. was fucking with him or his constant legal troubles but there was still a means for Death Row to do business. Suge's name held value. Death Row still had distribution to hit every major retail market out there. They weren't gonna get MTV or national radio love like they use to but even if they got into  a partnership with a major, it still would have been tricky at that point.

c) guy brought a bad rep to the west led to alotta people gettin blackballed

I think there is too much an emphasis on who or what caused the demise of the label Deathrow.  Just like everything in life and especially music labels or artist, had its peak in the 90s and had no where to go but down.

Motown, Def Jam, were rulers of the respective industries at one point as well.  Every good thing eventually comes to a end.

People want to discredit the man because of what is in the present but he started that shit and was excellent at being the executive and choosing talent.  Deathrow took two or three steps above what previous labels had done and continue to be one of the most copied labels the way business is done today.

Bad Boy, No Limit, Roc-a-fella, Murder Inc...all I'm sure will show props to Suge Knight for a map to success.

You put hip hop artistry strictly in the hands of these big rich executives that don't have any sense of what the true form of our music is and you get the music of today.

again, i'm not NIK so try again  ;)

all jokes aside, do you really think Dre had more freedom at death row, than he had with ruthless?  :loco: do you use crack?

also, after Dre ran away, Eazy-E actually managed to get 25% off of Dre's sales, after negotiating with interscope.

you don't have to be Einstein to figure out that Dre would have been better off if he had renegotiated with Ruthless Records.

What does anyone need protection from in the studio? It's a work enviroment. You have security at the doors to keep the wrong people out in the first place. Death Row had excellent security. Hence, no need to have gangbangers in the studio. Many have disputed that this was one of Suge's worst contributions to the music business. People view the studio as sacred. There shouldn't be anyone in there that isn't producing, performing, or in some way or another, contributing directly to the production of the records.

And what is this "everything" that Suge gave them? Let's look at this objectively. Suge helped them make a name for themselves but he was well compensated for it. They don't owe Suge any more than Suge should owe Jimmy Iovine. It's a business. At least for Interscope's part, Suge was a multi-millionaire. The artists on Death Row all left with no money. Many of them were bankrupt. Should they all be thankful to Suge for the opportunity to make him rich? I mean, if it's only about the fame then what seperates Death Row from all these other major labels? Shouldn't every artist just stay put on whatever label gave them their first break? After all, that label "made" them? Doesn't that make Suge an ingrate for biting the hand that fed him when he dissed Interscope? After all, as long as someone puts your face on TV and voice on the radio, you owe them your livelihood even if they are making a killing off your publishing. That's just how it goes.

After all, as long as someone puts your face on TV and voice on the radio, you owe them your livelihood even if they are making a killing off your publishing. That's just how it goes.

Death Row while a company wasn't professional. Suge used aggressive tactics, threats of violence, and violent acts to get contracts.He beat people who were working.The fact is, they smoked weed, got drunk and did a bunch of shit in the studios.

Also LOL SUge isn't no multi-millonaire anymore, the fat fuck lost DR and his mansion lmao He can't even get Blac Ball Recordz of the ground. IMO Suge/Dre were what made Death Row the best. Suge with his strong armed tactics was able to broker the deals, and with Dre running/producing the music it was golden.Suge fucked up death Row when he added tupac. He forced everyone to put their beats/lyrics into All Eyez on Me for Tupac.That alone pissed off dre to some extent. It was just 1 of the few reasons why he left.

Personally I feel, Death Row wasn't Death Row anymore. It was Tupac's Label in the end.Everything was to surround him, Hyped up around him. He owned The West Coast/Death Row during his time on their. That's why I think a lot of the artist started to get cliquish over prodducers/singers because they didn't want to lose anymore to Tupac. I mean Tupac was just using what suge gave him, and he gave people a chance. He took producers no one else fucked with, gave em a chance and they shined.IMO Death Row just started to come unraveling when Tupac had came on it, mainly because of how Suge made people put into the All Eyez on me project, and that he was basically the only artist receiving attention (I've searched for stuff in those years, Its all basically coming up with tupac)

I didn't say it was any different just pointed out that this is the way it is today and you don't have any more Suge Knights or big drug dealer kingpin's that really from the streets running successful labels or have the backing from big distributors like Suge did.  They are venturing other more prosperous avenues.

first of all, i never stated that the only option is that Dre should have stayed: renegotiating is not equal to staying.
i mean, one of the possibilities is, that they would have parted ways.

2nd, you're assuming that Dre got ripped off at Ruthless, as you have no proper base for it.

Dre felt this way, which is something different.
however, he never told this to Eazy or Jerry, yet he did plan his escape secretly.
so he basically turned his back to the negotiation table.

look you could argue whether Dre got paid for was worth, with the contract he had, but that's subjective & difficult to determine.

but it's a fact that Dre wanted a spot like Eazy's + get paid as much as Eazy-E.
that isn't fair, as Dre didn't run Ruthless.


Dr. Dre wasn't getting proper compensation for his production/the N.W.A. albums. His contract couldn't renogitation, Suge used Violence to get him released.Even then, Eazy E secured a Publishing clause for 6 years that anything dre creates, Ruthless Records will get a percentage of (as for how much, I'm not sure, but Eazy was fine with the diss, so I'm guessing it was a lot)

His contract couldn't renogitation, Suge used Violence to get him released.Even then, Eazy E secured a Publishing clause for 6 years that anything dre creates, Ruthless Records will get a percentage of (as for how much, I'm not sure, but Eazy was fine with the diss, so I'm guessing it was a lot)

and this is a fact how?

also, how are you so sure that there was no option for re-negotiation?
Dre ran away!
then Ruthless didn't want to release him.

and even if Dre's contract trapped him, it's his own fault, as he signed the thing in the first place.

The fact is Dr.dre would not have the career he has had without suge knight.If suge hadn't saved him then the chronic would never have happened or doggystyle for that matter.he would have just been another act on ruthless.
Just another act on Ruthless? Are you not aware that Dr. Dre was pretty big before DR?

He was known as someone in a group and he was the third man in that group behind cube and eazy and had no solo star power at that time.

I've always spoke on this situation. And I did agree with how Suge GANGSTA'd the industry because they have been raping artists' for YEARS!!! BUT after HE did that HE turned around and became just like them which makes him WORST!! ??? There is a saying "DONT CUT OFF YOUR NOSE TO SMITE YOUR FACE!" But thats what he did. Cuz on some real shit EVERYBODY THOUGHT he had power but if he would have left out the BULLYING (WELL SOME OF THESE HIGH POWERED RECORD EXECS NEEDED TO GET IT) for cheating and ruining people's lives all these years, But outside of them just stuck with helping, of course some would've have been ungrateful that comes with the territory, PUT YOUR FAITH IN NO MAN! but Imagine if he would have helped more people than he hurt, EVERYBODY INCLUDING MYSELF would HAVE been down 2 RIDE for HIM thats POWERRRRR!! :o If Im putting food on so many different peoples tables and those people made so much they could feed people and so and so on, And if ANYBODY would have talked about doing something to him he would have had people he did'nt even KNOW, RIDIN for HIM! NOW THATS POWERRRRR!!!!!  THATS WHAT THE FUCK WERE SUPPOSED TO BE DOING!! "ALL 4 ONE, ONE 4 ALL, UNITED WE STAND, DIVIDED WE FALL!!"

all of NWA was famous and Dr dre had gained popularity in the news/media for his attack on Dee Barnes


Dre was known for being the producer of NWA, Eazy E and the DOC, all having platinum albums

Since when did being known and producing a couple platinum albums mean your solo stuff is going to sell.I'm not saying dre would be some nobody because he already was somebody.but without suges help he would not be who he is today and that goes for everyone else on deathrow even 2PAC.pac sold records but when he hooked up with suge he was on another level.Death row was a hype machine all the drama suge stirred up garaunteed sales and backed up the gangsta image the rappers talked about.

2pac was HUGELY famous before 1995...

Dre was well known too by anybody who was a hip hop head.  Eazy mentioned him in  damn near every song and the NWA-Ice Cube beef got big too.

I think Death Row made Dr. Dre into a superstar. But when I say "Death Row", I don't mean just Suge Knight. I think the trio of Dre, Suge, and Snoop all made the early years of Death Row into what it was. I think without one, either of the other two might not have had what they did. I think Dre was arguably destined to be where he was though. The major labels knew what Dre had. There is a reason why Interscope scooped Death Row up from under Dick Griffey. There was a reason why Suge had as much power as he did. They were actually going to get an even better deal with Sony before questions began to come up about how Dre got his release from Ruthless.

As far as Pac, his career was where it was. Death Row or not, he was already a major superstar. I think Suge hit the lottery with that one.

I got all 4 Hit albums   8)  Love em all (I know N.W.A and the Posse isn't a true N.W.A album, but it has some old school flavor)

Dr. Dre was huge in the game before Death Row (I think we all can agree, that Death Row had help make him bigger with The Chronic/Doggystyle and G-Funk). N.W.A was notorious back in the day. Everyone knew who they were. Straight Outta Compton (My first rap CD btw) was so fucking huge, Imagine if it had actually had Radio/video play. The beef with Ice Cube (Who brought even more attention to do Amerikkka's Most Wanted being some damn good) just brought more attention. Producing Above The Law's first album, C.I.A, N.W.A, Eazy E, DOC. Dr. Dre was well established before Death Row. We just know him Death Row commonly because The Chronic's production was just so ground breaking at the time. Now I a put on some of the artist/Albums I mention  8)

Well, Death Row also gave him his introduction as a solo act. Granted, he had a whole stable of young artists he was bringing in with him but he was the star name that was attached to it all. He was the superstar mentor who was introducing the next crop of stars. It was interesting because it was still very street like N.W.A but the sound was more laid back and the beats were becoming more smooth and melodic. Dre was flirting with this sound at Ruthless but he really perfected it when he got with The Dogg Pound.

I heard he didn't do any production of The Dogg Pound album.Dr. Dre had done production for the old C.I.A group (I have their album, which only contains 3 tracks lol,Sounding like the beasty boys). When he did the original N.W.A albums, his production was basic, and was so underground.EFIL4ZAGGIN showed how far he had came. The Chronic was just him at the top of his game. 2001 well, That was perfection. Hopefully Detox, will feature some new Technique.

Only thing I honestly don't want lol is him using The Atomic Dog sample anymore, He's used that shit to death. From The CHronic, Doggy style, to All Eyez XD I'm sorta wanting him to sample Zapp.Band is good, just imagined it Sampled, remixed and remastered :O

Suge was not responsible for Dre's success.  If Suge was responsible, cats like Crooked I, Eastwood, The Realist, etc would have been megastars. 

Compare Dre's track record w/ Suge:

Dre had World Class Wreckin Cru (Turn off the lights), JJ Fad (Supersonic...later Fergalicious hate it or love it, lol) NWA - Ice Cube, Eazy E (LEGENDARY), Snoop (LEGENDARY), Eminem (LEGENDARY), 50 (Biggest single of the century)...

Dre had MAD success for years before and after Suge.

Suge helped get him outta Ruthless and that's it.  If he was such a smart business man, he would have seen the value and genius in Dre and done everything he could to accomodate him and keep him on DR.

Suge was good at being a bully and getting into trouble.  That's it.  Stop giving him so much credit.  You think those executive producer credits mean shit?  He wasn't an artist at all.

I'm talking about his N.W.A and the Posse n.w.a singles (they were still amazing) but 100 miles, Nigga4life, That's where his production really shined. Hell Niggaz4life production is way better then a lot of albums today (and more gangsta).The worse production I've seen was the C.I.A shit. lol If you hear that, That's basic.The 3 songs are OK gotta em on MP3, Music history lol

He was on the covers of both The Source and XXL after his prison bid. He was getting interviewed by all the entertainment magazine TV shows like Entertainment Tonight. He was on Carson Daily's nationwide late night show on NBC. He got to go up on Hot 97 many times. He was on Howard Stern. He did the Wendy Williams show on VH1. All of those publications and programs reach hundreds of millions of people. He never used that time to promote projects.
