Suge Knight Accused Of Ordering Hit On Man!

It is very crazy to still read stories like this about Suge Knight after all these years. Yes; he does have a reputation to be very intimidating mostly because of his huge stature. I guess you can also throw in the countless death threats he has made against other celebrities. Read more below on this story as well as stories on Dr. Dre's new album and Lady GaGa hooking up with T.I.

According to TMZ.com, legal documents were filed yesterday (May 24th) in Los Angeles Superior Court, where a judge ordered Knight to stay at least 100 yards away from the man.

In court papers, the individual claimed that after Knight was released from jail on an assault charge last week, eight men came to his house last Friday (May 21st).

The goons were allegedly sent by Knight to “get me or kill” the man. The individual claims Knight himself said he was going to “take” his life.

At press time, it is unclear if the man who filed the restraining order yesterday is the same individual Knight had an altercation with last Thursday (May 20th) in Los Angeles.

In that incident, a man accused Knight of pointing a gun at him during the altercation.

Knight was later stopped in his white Cadillac Escalade and charged with assault with a deadly weapon and driving with a suspended license.

Knight has denied the gun charge.

Dr. Dre Readies Detox Album!

Those expecting another Chronic 2001 from Dr. Dre are in for disappointment. According to super-producer Scott Storch, the rap icon is avoiding repeating history with Detox.

“There’s quite a few records that are really amazing,” Dre’s longtime production partner and friend Scott Storch told DJ Skee in a recent interview. Storch collaborated with him on The Chronic 2001.

But don’t expect the same sound as Dre’s classic 2001 album. The beatmakers made sure not to include tracks that were too reminiscent of the past. “I think people will be pleasantly surprised when they hear it. It’s definitely a departure from a lot of the stuff Dre has done and the stuff Dre and I have done in the past. It’s a hybrid,” he revealed.

The long-awaited project is nearing completion. “I think he’s looking for like three more records,” Storch said, while joking, “So that should take about 400 records to get those three. He’s got pretty high standards.”

Additionally, the hitmaker confirmed that he co-produced the lead single “Under Pressure” featuring Jay-Z.

I wonder are people still interested in this album or not. It has been in the works for so long and has had many setbacks.

Lady GaGa Appears On New T.I. Album!

Rapper T.I. has revealed that his new studio album King Uncaged, due August 17, will feature a collaboration with Lady Gaga. The two have recorded a RedOne-produced track called “Lick It”. T.I. says on working with Gaga:

“Phenomenal talent. Extremely proud. She’s definitely that good. She knows what she’s doing. She knows exactly what she wants people to think and say. She does everything that she needs to be done to ensure it happens. I think she’s an entertainer, in all aspects of the word. She’s a classic, all-around entertainer. A global star.”

“We gonna go back in and record some more songs. But the one we have right now is entitled ‘Lick It.’ I think we both have a tendency to shock the world in a lot of different ways.”

Lady GaGa is definitely crossing over and appearing with more rap artists it seems. I see she didn't appear on Trina's album though on "Let Them Hoes Fight" and I wonder was it because Trina is not big as say T.I. Hmm makes you wonder?
