      Suge gave his soul to the devil and chose the devil path and he was in this dark toxic Devil energy and others were in danger of their life everyday because of him. This type of person won't change. Not everyone is equal. If you're acting like a Devil you're a Devil. If you're acting like a snake you're a snake!

    The narrative that Big Gipp is giving is exactly what demonstrates how even a genius artist like a 2Pac and Biggie were gullible and underestimated the dangerous games they were playing. Their deaths only opened the door to a really bad era of violence against rappers and their entourages. We lost a lot of genius, a lot of potential music conglomerates. Death Row would have been the biggest label in rap today and their roster would have had quadruple the amount of artists and would have inspired other Suges, owners of their own record labels.

    I like Gipp. Outlast, Goodie Mob and the whole dungeon family, organized noise crew is definitely my favorite people. Listening to his lyrics and listening at him do interviews, how has he not flipped his career and popped in something else with all that knowledge? He looks like he could do good in the movie industry or at least kick off something major as an entrepreneur. Maybe the villain role or something. Sometimes u just gotta figure out your strong points and go with that. Just like his solo career..he came with the singing and dancing, catchy hooks like grillz with nelly. Just wasn't the same Gipp we knew and loved from soul food and still standing.

Meanwhile the southerners and easterners mimicked everything the west coast did without any repercussions.

      The other side of the coin that rarely gets talked about is Suge was incredibly smart when it came to business and the Powers that be that controlled the music industry knew it. Extorting Vanilla Ice of his publishing rights are the proceeds that helped start Death Row in the first place. As his earlier days of working as a bodyguard for Bobby Brown, Suge understood that ownership of your master recordings and publishing rights is where the real money is. Thus, countless numbers of Black artists/musicians had been getting snaked out of profits from their labor by the owners of the record companies.

    Death Row Records downfall was simply bad business practice. Like not really paying the artists properly. Ask Snoop how much he made at Death Row Records vs when he signed to No Limit Records. Hood politics have always been part parcel in Hip Hop Culture. If the business is right irrespective of the boisterous mindset of some young men it can be sustainable. But it is rare for a label to sustain in the mainstream.

    That's exactly right. As a musician myself I grew up with homies that were connected. I never joined in a gang. But when you got homies that are in the gang culture and you are just trying to get your g.e.d. and get a degree, it's hard to chill. Not to mention many of them got on that heroin. When you see your homeboy in the hospital in a coma because of an overdose, it hots you hard.

    Thats true. I dont think Ice Cube was an actual gang member, but i know Mack 10 (Queens St. Blood) and WC (Neighborhood Crip) were. Cube brought them together and they sold many records repping their set, but leaving the politics out of it.
    Suge on the other hand, was more interested in Piru politics... smh

    I hear you Gipp! Unfortunately Suge is not that smart or that remorseful of his mistakes. He still believes his model could have worked and he blames everyone but himself for the downfall of the label. He wanted to run Deathrow like a football team lol. The music business and football are two different things.

    "Nobody is bigger than the program."
    This is the problem. Hood politics and nobody being bigger than the program is not about equality. It's about telling more talented people that you arent special. And, if you think differently, you will be checked or receive a DP.

He helped alot of people in the streets helped families to eat .But when it was on him when things turned south. But it was a lesson though . It doesn't take away a good business man he was intelligent he was and a helping hand he was
