Shocker!! Hip Hop Record Label Death Row Records Still Lookng for a Buyer?

The sale of Deathrow for $24 million was note DONE as we heard! The sale of Marion ‘Suge' Knight's hip hop and rap power house record label Death Row Records to Global Music Group Inc. and Entertainment One LTD. Is not the ‘done deal' that has been reported.

Court documents show that R. Todd Nelson, Chapter 11 Trustee of debtor Death Row Records Inc. and Richard K. Diamond, Chapter 11 Trustee of debtor Marion ‘Suge' Knight Jr. have filed a lawsuit in US Bankruptcy Court Central District of California, Los Angeles DAlso it seems that Lydia Harris will be in court again over her judgment against hip hop mogul Marion ‘Suge' Knight and hip hop / rap powerhouse Death Row Records.

Helen Ryan Frazer, Chapter 7 Trustee in Case No. SV-96-15521-GM filed in United States Bankruptcy Court in California has named Lydia Harris, New Image Corporation, Michael Ray Harris (Harry O), Conquest Media Group, LLC and Wasserman, Comden & Castleman, LLP., as defendants in another lawsuit. The case is for Complaint for Declaratory Judgment.

This stems from the $107,000,000 judgment against Death Row Records that was awarded to her against Global Music Group Inc., a New York Corporation; Entertainment One LTD. See pdf files of the court documents at www.ThugLifeArmy.com

Some anonymous person that has been e-mailing me for a while now called ThaGM......you know yourself. I think you're Suge Knight and you need to get on the phone with me! This is getting ridiculous. I am a different kind of Music Reporter. You won't hear a lot of shit I report here in the mainstream media. Missed my exclusive interview with LYDIA? Listen to it again below and leave a comment. There is a third party in this thing and it's Michael Harris' other woman who has a lot to say too. Her interview is coming. Her name is ZEVELYN LEE!
LYDIA NEEDS TO GET HER $$$$ AND EVERYONE NEEDS TO CUT THE SHYT. Suge may just be the one sitting on that electric chair in the logo! THE END!

AESTHETICIAN BUYS DEATH ROW RECORDS FOR $25 MILLION.

LATEST: A Tennessee-based independent label run by a former skincare expert has acquired rap mogul MARION 'SUGE' KNIGHT's Death Row Records. Susan Berg's Global Music Group purchased the company for $25 million (GBP12.5 million) at auction on Tuesday (24Jun08) - and now she owns the rights to unreleased recordings by late rapper Tupac Shakur and other hip-hop gems. Berg's company beat out heavyweights like Warner Music Group to pick up the company Knight founded in 1991. As well as Shakur, Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre once called Death Row Records home before falling out with Knight.

The label was placed into receivership when Knight filed for bankruptcy. Insiders claim Berg and her Global Music Group partners now own several albums worth of Shakur's music, and it's possible for the label to release a new album of his material later this year. Celebrating at the BET Awards on Tuesday night (24Jun08), Berg told reporters, "I got the whole f**king s**t."

PART ONE



PART TWO






THE EXCERPTS FROM THE ENTIRE 20 MINUTE INTERVIEW

One evening in California, a lady sat at her computer terminal and began to Google her NAME. What popped up amazed her as there were obviously many results.....something she's used to anyway. The only thing was that one article popped up at a website calling her "Lydia Harris, Deathrow enemy#1." That website was HIPHOSSIP. The article I wrote about her was linked from another site and I did not exactly call her that. Soon, I got an e-mail from the Dynamic and Professional PR guru Kara Topolsky of KST Communications in Oraville, California. Kara asked me if I would like to hear Lydia's side of the story and I agreed. The rest is history and in this interview. There are always three sides to a story, the black, the white and the grey in between.

Listen to this exciting, explosive and revealing interview of the $107 Million judgement against Death Row's Suge Knight and the upcoming launch of her new company, "Lady Boss Entertainment" and her future plans. In the second part of this story I will introduce you to another woman who claims she is the real Mrs Harris. However she wasn't the one given the judgement, Lydia says a lot of opportunists have come forward since the award and that she's just a baby mama who actually abandoned her own child at one time. I decided to hear what Zevelyn Kim Lee had to say too. Stay tuned. Meanwhile the man at the center of this Michael Harris, a former cocaine kingpin who is said to have founded the label with drug money got 28 years in jail and has served 19 so far. He may be getting out soon and word on the street is that he may be out already! Nobody knows. Michael Harris and Suge Knight are definitely two people I would love to hear from! Harris has invited me to her star studded red carpet launching of her new company this June 2008 in California. She started a Literacy Foundation, coming out with a Jewelry line, has a cook book and more merchandise available to order online. Stay tuned for more developments.....

Her website: Lydia Harris Biography
The book website: Married to the Game--A story of Love and Waiting.
  • On why she wrote the book "Married to the Game": She said she wanted her daughter to know what her life was about. How mom went up against very powerful men and what she went through. She said lawyers, Music executives, Suge Knight and more who she says that she wants to forget about.
  • On the fall of Deathrow: She does not feel responsible for the label's downfall and that "Suge Knight brought this on himself."
  • On the Conquest Media case: she states that she has not been to court on that yet. She said that she declared all her assets and all the lawyers ignored the critical things she stated in the filing and it was some kind of miscommunication!
  • On communication with her ex-husband: Michael Harris does not call her anymore and there is no longer any communication.
  • On the book proceeds and helping the community: She states she has a foundation and is looking into some worthy charities.
  • On funding the Broadway play with drug money: "Checkmates" starring Denzel Washington with Michael's drug money as reported in the media: She stated that she had no idea it was drug money and she does not or ever sold drugs. She after all is a free woman and found out about all the drug dealing in court during his case. She called it a "non issue" period! The play was just launching when she entered Michael's life.
  • On advising kids about drug dealing: She said kids should not sell drugs or they will have to face the consequences!
  • On Suge Knight destroying careers of many artists: She called him controlling the lives of many artists for the good or bad but it was mostly bad.
  • On asking if she was scared of Suge: She stated many are scared of him but as for her. Certainly not!
  • Zevelyn Kim Lee, another woman who had a child for Michael Harris is challenging Lydia's role and called her names and she claims to be a Mrs Harris too. Her interview will be part 2 of this saga. Harris described her as an opportunist with an interest in the $107 million judgement!
  • On Suge Knight's attack shown publicly all over the net: She simply said..."What took them so long?".....meaning that someone should probably have done this a long time.
Lydia Harris has obviously met several high profile individuals in her lifetime. Below are some pictures with the Governor of California Arnold Schwarzenegger and the R&B group Boyz to Men.
