Suge Knight Speaks Out From Prison In New Podcast
Suge Knight, the former CEO of Death Row Records and one of the most controversial figures in hip-hop history, is launching a new podcast from behind bars. The podcast, titled “Collect Calls With Suge Knight”, will feature conversations between Suge Knight and Dave Mays, the CEO of Breakbeat Media and the co-founder of The Source magazine. The podcast will be recorded from prison, where Suge Knight is serving a 28-year sentence for voluntary manslaughter.
The podcast aims to give Suge Knight a platform to share his opinions on various aspects of hip-hop culture, such as his legendary rap beefs, his responses to artists and hip-hop pundits who have used his name for headlines, and his thoughts on Snoop Dogg’s ownership of the Death Row brand. The podcast will also explore Suge Knight’s life experiences, foster connections with younger and older artists, and address audience questions.
According to Dave Mays, the podcast will be “the most authentic, unfiltered, and uncensored voice in hip-hop”. He said that he wanted to collaborate with Suge Knight because he believes that he has “a lot of wisdom and insight to offer”. He also said that he hopes that the podcast will help to “humanize” Suge Knight and show a different side of him than the media portrays.
The podcast is set to launch on Halloween in 2023, and will release episodes weekly, with audio versions on Thursdays and video versions on Fridays, available on major platforms. A sneak peek of the first episode will be available on October 24. However, the podcast will not reveal any details about Tupac Shakur’s murder case, which Suge Knight witnessed and refused to cooperate with prosecutors.
“Collect Calls With Suge Knight” is expected to be one of the most anticipated and controversial podcasts in hip-hop. It will offer a rare glimpse into the mind of one of the most influential and notorious figures in the music industry. Whether you love him or hate him, you will not want to miss what he has to say.
