Forget Suge, You Can Own Death Row Records!

Posted May 29th 2008 4:24PM by TMZ Staff

First Suge gets knocked out cold out at an L.A. club, now he's being forced to sell off his once-mighty Death Row empire.

After filing for bankruptcy in 2006, a judge has ordered that all assets for Death Row be auctioned off to the highest bidder on June 24. That's some serious stuff, as it includes the rights to all the recordings of Tupac Shakur, Snoop Dogg, and Dr. Dre. The minimum starting bid is a measly $24 mil.

Get your bid in by June 10 if you're looking for your own original copy of "The Chronic."

22. This stuff won't be worth much later on. I don't think dr.dre or snoop will let their recordings/rights will go without their say.

29. Koch Entertaiment, as the Death Row's distributor, already has a min
bid of $23 million. Probably Universal/Interscope Records will buy
it.

Re-issue "The Cronic", put the original videos on iTunes and you'll
make your money back pretty quickly.

Kind of funny how the Koch family is a bunch hard core christians and their son is one of the largest distributors or gangsta rap.
