Nate Dogg Sues Suge Knight For $10 Million
by West ·
Ex Death Row Records rapper Nate Dogg has filed suit against Suge Knight for more than $10 million, claiming the label’s former CEO never paid him royalties.
Nate, real name Nathaniel Hale, claims that when he asked Knight for his money, he was “threatened with violence,” or lied to, according to The Smoking Gun.
Knight filed for bankruptcy last year in Los Angeles’ U.S. District Court. Nate was not listed as a creditor in the Chapter 11 petition and seeks to make it impossible for Knight to erase his debts to him.
Nate, famous for his singing approach to rap, is cousin to Snoop Dogg and a member of 213, the trio comprising the two Doggs along with childhood friend Warren G.
