Bwhahahahahaha. I'm sorry. This is too funny. But what fall from grace has Suge Knight had. Apparently Suge Knight is suing Kanye West, blaming him for getting shot at Yeezy's pre-MTV VMA party in 2005. Suge claims that Kanye is responsible because security at the party allowed a man to smuggle in a gun, and then this said man proceeded to shoot Suge in the leg.
Knight alleges that he had to undergo months of physical therapy, suffered permanent impairment in his mobility, and ended up with significant medical bills - which included the cost of a private jet to transport him from Miami to Los Angeles. The lawsuit also claims that Suge lost a 15-carat, $135,000 diamond stud earring during the incident, which he includes in the suit as "damages for the loss of use and enjoyment of the earring." Hahahaha, enjoyment of the earring? Is this dude serious? The man who was once the most feared man in the music industry is claiming to be a victim of the heartbroken, auto-tune singing Kanye West? Incredible. I've seen it all.
Karma is a bitch. This is what he gets for killing Biggie and Pac.

Suge Says Goodbye to Death Row Records.
Death Row Records has a new owner. Global Music Group president, Susan Berg, purchased the record label for $24 million dollars after Suge Knight was forced to auction off Death Row due to bankruptcy. I wonder if she can take a punch better than suge?
Burg, who's a former aesthetician, now owns and controls all the masters from one of the most notorious labels in hip-hop history, which includes legendary recordings from Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, and Tupac Shakur. If i were Dre, i would would have ponied up the loot to purchase my masters, considering he was the driving force behind all that music. I think he was caught slippin on this one.
Also included in the purchase, were 20 unreleased 2Pac tracks...only time will tell if the world will get to hear those...I'm sure we will, considering Berg could get paid large off those tracks, I just hope it not old Pac accapellas thrown over Lil Jon produced beats. I just love it when non-hip hop business people are in control of the music.

Suge is getting cleaned out. After filing for bankruptcy in 2006, a judge has ordered that all assets for Death Row be auctioned off to the highest bidder on June 24. The minimum starting bid is a measly $24 mil. This is not a joke, all he Death Row masters are going up for sale. If were Daz and Kurupt, I'd pool my money together and get in line. But seriously, if Dre doesn't pony up and claim those masters, he's slippin.

Suge Offered $1 Million For Rematch
By now all of you have seen the photos of Suge Knight laid out on the concrete after getting knocked unconscious last Saturday night. Well, a Las Vegas promoter is offering Big Suge a chance at a big payback and even bigger pay day. Promotor Jeff Beacher has offered up a one million dollar purse for a rematch between the Death Row founder and the infamous Los Angeles barber who dropped Suge. A formal invitation was sent to Suge Knight, but the barber has been unreachable. No kidding...he probably went into hiding.

Suge Knight Gets Knocked Out
This happened on Saturday, but I don't blog on the weekends so you're reading it now. Sue me for being late. But the most feared man in the rap game got laid out like a recliner on Saturday night in front of the Shag nightclub in Los Angeles. He was knocked out unconscious for roughly 3 minutes after a brawl. There are mad conflicting reports about what had happened, but is went down a little something like this...
1. Suge yelled "Where's My Money!"
2. Suge and entourage beat down somebody over said money.
3. After the melee, Suge got knocked upside the head.
4. Suge hit pavement.
Whoever did this needs to go into hiding right now, because you know Suge doesn't won't take something like this laying down (pun intended). TMZ.com has more photos of his concrete nap (of course they do).
