Suge Knight caused a lot of mayhem when he was running Death Row Records. There are a lot of stories out there about people getting stomped out by the record mogul and his bloods gang henchmen back in the day.
Eminem and former bodyguard Big Naz
Eminem's former bodyguard Big Naz recalls Suge allegedly sending his goons to hurt the rapper at The Source Awards.
"There was a situation at the Source Awards, which was our first encounter with Suge Knight and his henchmen. They had it to where the artists couldn’t sit with the bodyguards," Naz said in an interview with the Murder Master Music Show. "I notice Em is in the middle of the isle and he is beefing with all these guys in red shirts. I noticed Em's face changing and he's turning like tomato red. There's a sea of red guys around him. I had to bust in the middle and snatch him up like, 'Hey man, what the hell is going on up in here?' This is what they said ‘Death Row motherfuckers! Suge Knight sent us to strong arm Eminem and it’s going down!’ I had to snatch him up. I had to call [Dr.] Dre and his bodyguards and tell them what was going on because they was backstage. Snatched Em up and took him backstage.”
Naz also recalled a situation in Hawaii when Knight sent a squad of thugs to mess up Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre's "Break Up to Make Up" reunion show.
“The scariest moment is when we went to Hawaii. When the plane lands we are greeted by 20 Honolulu police officers and they told us that Death Row is here — they tried to hem [Snoop Dogg] up," Naz said. "Suge Knight had sent 50 guys to try to break up the show. When we got there, vacation mode was over, we were lockin’-n-loading, putting on bullet proof vests with their wives and girlfriends sitting next to them. We had to have Interscope pick up the tab to put Honolulu police with each bodyguard, because of how deep Suge was over there.”
