In 1995 when Suge Knight bailed Tupac Shakur out of Clinton Correctional Facility while he appealed his rape conviction, he also signed him to a deal with Death Row Records.
At the time the label was co-owned by Dr. Dre and Suge.
There were rumors of tension (although never confirmed) among some artists at the label because ‘Pac instantly became it’s biggest star.
50 Cent recently weighed in on the situation. Because Dre was unhappy at the time and Suge was desperate to make sure he held onto 2Pac, 50 believes Suge was plotting against his business partner.
