Suge Knight sues Dr Dre

Taking their decades-long feud to the next level, record label owner Suge Knight has sued hip hop music producer and rapper Dr Dre, claiming the latter hired a hitman to kill him in 2014. TMZ.com reports that, in court documents, Suge claims Dre wanted to off him because he owed Suge 30 per cent of his $1 billion earnings from the Beats By Dre deal — thanks to a lifetime management clause from Dre’s time at Death Row records.

Suge was shot seven times in the abdomen in 2014, but he survived the incident.
Dre’s lawyer’s responded to the suit, saying, “Given that Dre has had zero interaction with Suge since leaving Death Row Records in 1996, we hope that Suge’s lawyer has lots of malicious prosecution insurance.”
