Suge Knight might not be free to roam the streets at the moment, but he still presents as a menacing figure even as he sits behind bars. The former Death Row Records honcho had choice words for his former signee, Snoop Dogg, and alleged that the rapper’s wife has been stepping out with other men among other jabs.
As spotted on X, formerly Twitter, Suge Knight took offense at Snoop Dogg replying to a Vl*dTV Instagram post suggesting that people pray for Knight after the outlet posted a story about the mogul taking shots at Diddy, Russell Simmons, Andre Harrell, and Dr. Dre.
Knight then shared another video of Snoop talking brazenly with another man and threatening the fade, with Knight writing in the caption, “If you only could act like this when the camera rolling Snoop Dogg.”
However, the big haymaker of the series of tweets was Knight posting a picture reportedly featuring Snoop’s wife, Shante Broadus, allegedly on vacation in Hawaii with an unnamed man. Again, we’re not clear on the context of the image, we’re just reporting what was shared with the public.
We’ve scanned the online streets for a response from Snoop Dogg but it appears he’s taking a higher road now. Some online are even saying that with Snoop now in the ownership of Knight’s former label, the beef stems from that.
In the midst of these tweets aimed at the Long Beach veteran, Suge Knight is also making wild claims about Steve Harvey and Diddy.

Katt Williams shook up the entire interview space via an explosive chat with Shannon Sharpe that people are still discussing some two weeks later. Among those to respond to the comedian’s claims was Ludacris with a clever freestyle but Katt Williams fired back with one of his own and shared the track with Suge Knight.
Knight, as most know, is currently incarcerated but launched a podcast with The Source founder Dave Mays, Collect Calls with Suge Knight and the series is now several episodes deep. The concept is rather simple, with a computer-generated version of Knight, Mays, and their guests giving visual weight to the show.
Katt Williams is still very much a topic of discussion after his all-out barrage on the Club Shay Shay podcast where comedians such as Rickey Smiley, Kevin Hart, Cedric The Entertainer, and more caught strays.
What caught the attention of Ludacris was Williams saying that the popular rapper and actor joined the so-called Illuminati and has a carbon copy wife of other celebrities in the elite cabal. Luda’s jab was considered solid, if light, by most standards and it didn’t seem like he took things too seriously.
Enter Williams, who previewed a diss track going directly at Ludacris and while it’s clear in the clip that he’s not a professional rapper, it was a game effort. Williams told Knight that he would soon refine the track and put it out to the world.
Check out Katt Williams firing shots at Ludacris on Collect Calls with Suge Knight below. Hop to the 20:00-minute mark to hear the track in question.

Of course, Suge Knight would have something to add to the list of sexual assault allegations against Diddy.
Spotted on HipHopDX, Diddy’s longtime nemesis and former Death Row CEO, Suge Knight, became the latest person to throw a big handful of salt in the Bad Boy mogul’s open wound.
In the latest episode of his podcast from jail, Collect Call with Suge Knight (how this is possible is another question), Knight talked about his storied rivalry with Diddy, used the opportunity to take a shot at him, and brought up more allegations against Brother Love.
“What Puffy done, what Puffy did, or what Puffy do, is not a surprise — everybody know what it is,” he said. “I mean, you gotta be able to that type of shit to a woman and to other women. But it’s not like it’s new news,” Knight said.
Speaking with his co-host Dave Mays, Knight brought up the Cassie situation, alleging that Puffy put his hands on a female assistant who didn’t tell him about Cassie’s fling with Kid Cudi, which also led to the “Mr Rager” crafter’s car being allegedly blown up.
“Same time he beat the shit outta muthaf***ing Cassie, he had an assistant by the name of Capricorn,” Knight continued. “He felt Cap was keepin’ this shit on the low about if she was messin’ with Cudi or not. Puffy beat the sh*t out that b***h.”
“Not only did he beat the shit out of her, it was an Interscope person, an Interscope check, that paid her to settle so he wouldn’t go to jail.”
Suge Knight Got Jokes
Knight, currently serving a 28-year-long prison sentence, wasn’t done taking shots at Diddy. He even joked about life in prison for the Revolt CEO if he shared a cell with him.
“Puffy, I don’t wanna see you go down, but if you need a celly, I’m a grant your ass my cell, boy! Have your cook game working. I don’t want no head, but you gon’ be cleaning toilets,” Knight joked.

A new video from the night that Tupac Shakur was shot has surfaced, showing the rapper heading out of the MGM Grand casino with a massive crowd.
A Las Vegas-area news network obtained never-before-seen surveillance footage of Tupac Shakur after his fight with Orlando Anderson on September 7, 1996, at the MGM Grand Casino. The video is different from the one that has already been publicized and has surfaced due to the arrest and indictment of Duane “Keffe D” Davis in connection with Shakur’s murder that night. Anderson was Davis’ nephew and a member of a rival gang to the Mob Piru, a gang Shakur had been affiliated with.
The 27-year-old surveillance video shows Tupac Shakur and Marion “Suge” Knight after the moments where Shakur along with others assaulted Anderson in the casino’s lobby. The video captures a visibly angered Shakur walking out of the casino along with Knight and a huge crowd of other people heading out behind them. The video features several zoomed-in shots of Shakur as he departed.
The incident would take place shortly before Tupac Shakur and Suge Knight left in a BMW sedan. They would be confronted by Davis along with two other men at the intersection of Flamingo Road and Koval Lane, a block off of the Las Vegas Strip where Deandre Smith, who was in the backseat, opened fire on them. Davis has gone on record as saying he was in the passenger seat and handed Smith the firearm. Both Smith and Anderson are now deceased.
According to Clark County officials, despite Davis’ claims that he wasn’t the man who shot and killed Shakur, he can still be charged with the murder itself for aiding and abetting. Davis is set to appear in court on Wednesday (October 4th). Suge Knight was contacted by TMZ at the California penitentiary about the situation and said he wouldn’t testify in the case. “I’m not going to get on the stand and testify, for what?”, he said.

Now that authorities have arrested and indicted Keffe D for his alleged role in the murder of Tupac Shakur, many are wondering who will be cooperating with prosecutors against him. Well, you can count Suge Knight out.
According to TMZ, the former head of Death Row Records and Tupac’s closest confidant at the time of his death doesn’t plan on giving authorities any help in their case against Keffe D as he still abides by the code of the streets. Even though Knight was in the car with Tupac at the time of the shooting, he doesn’t plan on giving police any kind of information and even suggests that they’ve got the wrong guy.
TMZ reports:
TMZ spoke exclusively with the Death Row Records founder on Monday … and he insists cops and prosecutors are barking up the wrong tree with their arrest of Davis. Even further, he refutes the long-held belief Davis’ late nephew, Orlando Anderson, was the shooter.
He also said prosecutors can forget about getting him on the stand during Davis’ murder trial. In a nutshell, Suge says he’s not ratting out anyone. Keep in mind, of the 6 people involved in the shooting — 4 were in the shooter’s car — Suge and Davis are the only 2 still alive.
Looks like Suge is ready to take whatever he knows about the shooting to his grave.
Though Keffe D’s done numerous interviews putting himself at the scene of the crime and insinuating that he played a role in the shooting, Knight doesn’t believe neither he nor Orlando Anderson killed Tupac.
Crazy world we live in, right?
What do y’all think of Suge Knight refusing to speak to authorities about Keffe D’s involvement in the murder of Tupac Shakur? Let us know in the comments section below.

Though he wasn’t a rapper or producer, Suge Knight was one of the biggest figures in the music game during Hip-Hop’s golden era of the ’90s. And now he’s ready to tell his story to the world on a televised series.
TMZ is reporting that the most feared man in the rap game during the ’90s wants to bring his life story to a network near you and is currently working with his brother, Brian Brown, to make it happen. There’s a high interest in street legends and icons these days. And Suge feels that the culture would be interested in seeing what his life was like before, during, and maybe even after his Death Row run. Truth be told, he might be right.
From TMZ:

We’re told the series will have a similar feel to 50 Cent’s hit show “BMF” … with plenty of plot time allotted to tell Suge’s pre-music industry backstory as a kid growing up in Compton who aspired to be a football coach.
Suge, who’s serving a 28-year sentence for the 2015 killing of Terry Carter, has plenty of time to oversee the project behind bars and we’re told he’s very hands-on in the process of selecting a director and actors … especially when it comes to the Tupac Shakur role.
Though they did pretty decent jobs, we don’t know if Suge was particularly fond of either actor’s iteration of his character.
Regardless of who ends up taking on the role of Suge, it should be interesting to see how he’s portrayed in his own series and how he’ll paint the many other famous rappers whose lives he was involved in during his reign at the top of the rap game.

Tory Lanez is ditching the legal team representing him during his criminal trial, where he was found guilty of shooting Megan Thee Stallion. Now, he is hoping Suge Knight’s former lawyer can deliver a miracle as talk about appeals begins.
Meghann Cuniff, affectionately dubbed Meghann Thee Reporter following her excellent coverage of the Tory Lanez trial, shared that Lanez expects to be in court on Tuesday, Jan.10, and his attorney will now be David Kenner. If his name sounds familiar, he also represented Snoop Dogg and Suge Knight.
“Kenner is a longtime criminal defense attorney whose clients include former Death Row Records CEO Suge Knight,” Cuniff wrote in a tweet. “Anyone with actual experience in criminal law (not all lawyers) will tell you he’s joining the case a bit late: Before trial would have been better.”
When the news was revealed, some quickly believed that Kenner was representing Knight when he was sentenced to 28 years in prison. Cuniff promptly pointed out that he was the former Death Row Record CEO’s lawyer during a robbery case in the 90s where he got probation.
Tory Lanez & His Former Attorney Parted On Good Terms
Per Rolling Stone senior reporter Nancy Dillon, Lanez’s former attorney said he parted ways with the rapper on good terms, noting he doesn’t handle appeals.
“I don’t do appeals,” Mgdesyan said. “So we had to get somebody on board to handle the appeal.” He also noted he plans to attend Lanez’s sentencing set for Jan.27.
“As a party who represented Tory and is friends with Tory, I have an interest,” he notes.
Last month Lanez was found guilty on all three charges, assault with a semiautomatic firearm, having a concealed and loaded firearm in a vehicle, and discharge of a firearm with gross negligence.
He was adamant that he did not shoot Megan Thee Stallion despite the evidence working against him, and now he is looking at over 22 years in prison.
We shall see if his move to hire David Kenner will pay off.
