But as quickly as it rises to unimagined heights, the label crashes and burns amid allegations of money laundering, murder, gang ties, and the heavy handed business practices of its notorious CEO, Marion &#8220;Suge&#8221; Knight.<\/p>\n<p>WELCOME TO DEATH ROW brings an insider\u2019s view of what happened at this most unconventional enterprise, answering questions that many observers of the label have been asking for years. Why would Suge Knight seek to bring members of the Blood street gang into the enterprise after it was successful? How did Jimmy Iovine manage his relationship with Knight? How did Death Row\u2019s securing of rapper Tupac Shakur lead to Dr. Dre\u2019s departure and ultimately the label\u2019s demise?<\/p>\n<p>At its core, the Death Row story is a drama worthy of Shakespeare. An ex-football player, turned bodyguard rips the rap industry\u2019s most successful new producer, Dr. Dre, from his contract with Eazy E&#8217;s Ruthless Records and takes a $1.5 million investment from Michael &#8220;Harry O&#8221; Harris \u2014a former crack kingpin serving consecutive life sentences\u2014 to fund his company. Since Knight has an extensive criminal past and has a label with artists with criminal records, Harris sets him up with the man handling his appeal for attempted murder: former county prosecutor David Kenner. Over time, Kenner will become Knight\u2019s consigliere and right hand man, and later will conspire with Knight to betray Harris as Death Row becomes the most successful rap label in history.<\/p>\n<p>But Harry O is not the kind of person who will let imprisonment stand in the way of what he sees as rightfully his. As Death Row\u2019s often violent and unconventional business practices lead to its undoing, Harris stiff arms a government investigation into Death Row\u2019s initial funding and eventually wins a $100 million dollar judgment against the label. This leads to a mano-a-mano showdown between Harris and Knight at San Quentin Prison before Suge Knight makes the fateful decision to throw Death Row into bankruptcy.<\/p>\n<p>WELCOME TO DEATH ROW is adapted from the 2001 documentary of the same name, and the book, &#8220;Welcome to Death Row: The Rise and Fall of Death Row Records&#8221; published in 2015. Both are owned and controlled by Xenon Pictures, Inc., where they were created.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>2016&#8217;s STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON was developed at Xenon Pictures as an offshoot project, with CEO Leigh Savidge garnering an Oscar nomination for best screenplay.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The project is currently in the form of a two hour screenplay which gives a compressed view of a story covering events that happen over a twenty year period from 1986 to 2005. The story can easily be expanded into a six to eight hour limited series as well.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; module_id=&#8221;WTDRcharacters&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.5&#8243; background_image=&#8221;http:\/\/welcometodeathrow.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/SugeUNLVmustconfirmBGround1920.jpg&#8221; parallax=&#8221;on&#8221; inner_width_tablet=&#8221;50px&#8221; inner_max_width_tablet=&#8221;50px&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-7px|||||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||13px|||&#8221; z_index_tablet=&#8221;500&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;CHARACTERS&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; text_font=&#8221;Anton||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;63px&#8221; z_index_tablet=&#8221;500&#8243; text_text_shadow_style=&#8221;preset1&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">CHARACTERS<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_3,2_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/welcometodeathrow.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/suge-knight-portrait-2002-billboard-1548.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;suge-knight-portrait-2002-billboard-1548&#8243; show_in_lightbox=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; text_font=&#8221;Actor||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;20px&#8221; background_color=&#8221;rgba(132,0,24,0.39)&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;|-93px||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;37px|39px|38px|43px&#8221; z_index_tablet=&#8221;500&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Marion \u201cSuge\u201d Knight &#8211; 28<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Physically imposing at 6\u20194\u201d 285 pounds, Suge\u2019s street-level smarts regarding the music business come from years as a bodyguard to artists such as Bobby Brown, The DOC and later, Dr. Dre, listening to them express their dissatisfaction with their record labels and contracts.
