» Suge, Good Night
That punch that felled him outside of an LA club last month was only a small part of Suge Knight's chronic (ha!) bad luck over the past few years. Death Row Records has been purchased for $24 million after a bankruptcy judge ruled that Knight had to sell all of his assets. The sale includes 20 unreleased tracks from Tupac. Knight was forced to sell after he lost an appeal of the judge's ruling earlier this week. Some might call this karma. [EUR] |

Bad Dudes
Suge Knight, founder of Death Row Records and probable assassin of Tupac Shakur and Christopher Wallace, is set to star in a new project about his life and work called Unfinished Business. According to preview above, Unfinished Business will present viewers with eye-opening portrayals of Knight et al's strange business practices, which include threats, humiliation and acts of violence. (Not that these are unorthodox business methods, but rarely is the cruelty so straightforward.) Exactly what Unfinished Business is – reality series? direct to DVD documentary? minstrel show? – is unclear and unexplained in the video. If you know what the hell Unfinished Business is, let us know. And everyone stay out of Suge Knight's way. He is not a nice man. |

You know what they say — it's all fun and games until the big black thug/music exec tries to bite the finger off of the little white Entourage star and gets blood everywhere. According to the NYDN, that's what happened after the diminutive Kevin Connolly got into a "play" wrestle match with Suge Knight. Who does that? Who voluntarily wrestles with Suge Knight and calls it fun? He's lucky he got away with just a bleeding finger. [NYDN] |
