8. He Was An Artist Manager
Before Suge Knight became Death Row Records’ CEO, he had his own artist management company. He helped to shape the careers of artists like DJ Quik and the D.O.C. Obviously, Knight is pretty good at spotting talent. He’s also got a knack for promoting his artists well and turning them into stars. However, he also tends to have conflicts with some of these same artists, and once he counts them as enemies, Knight is known for doing everything he can to destroy them. Perhaps Knight could have stayed out of trouble if he’d chosen a career where the odds of success were higher. But, we can’t quite picture Suge Knight in corporate America.
