That video is hilarious. The fact that there were cameramen, producers, videographers a whole production team went into having a ghostwriter legitimately complain about who he was writing for

At the time he had a legitimate gripe with Dre since he briefly left the label to go to Aftermath, then went back to Death Row because he never received payment/credit for writing "Been There, Done That". If you look at the credits for that song, Suge got publishing for the track along with J-Flexx.
At least Death Row had a final banger:
It's a shame Suge dived back into fukkery after Left Eye's death and not being able to pry Ray J away from Atlantic. Eastwood and Crooked I (and Roscoe if Suge tried to get his contract) could have carried the label on their backs.

This photo of Dre while Eazy E was bombing on him still can't be escaped. Pac & Suge was probably telling the truth.

Funny thing death row would still be today if they didn't focus on going at people that left.
Not sure the music was prioritized enough
They would’ve needed to buy DJ Quik out his contract and build the label around him
They could have Quik, Young Crooked.,Prime Kurupt, Prime Rage. They could have made something wrok instead of the dumb beefs

By the way, what is Snoop gonna do with this part of the Death Row catalog?
Hopefully he does a Doggystyle 30th anniversary release that includes unreleased tracks, but doesn't seem like he's going to be doing much with the back catalog with artists not named Daz, Kurupt, Snoop, and Rage. Hopefully he could return the masters to those that didn't drop albums (Danny Boy, Sam Sneed, J-Flexx, etc.) since they could probably eat more off of their work than Snoop trying to release everything.
