If Suge had just said "ok, fukk him anyway, let's move on" and forgot about Dre () things might have been alright. Cool, get your disses off at the end of 96/start of 97 and move tf on.
Even if that would have been his mentality, Vegas still happened and he still would have been sent to prison for several years while they had a multitude of legal cases. Reggie Wright claimed while he was running the label heel was able to get all the lawsuits taken care of so when Suge got out in 2001, there were no legal issues waiting for him.

How much Involvement did Suge Knight and Reggie Wright Jnr have in Eminem producing 2Pac's last ever posthumous Album?
Was Death Row happy with the music and reception for it?
Pac's Life was 2pac's final posthumous album; the Eminem produced one, which was Pre Death Row material, came out 2 years before.

Props.
I dont even recall that lol. I remember Loyal 2 the game joint with 'ghetto gospel'. Which was a dope track to be honest, with Elton John on the hook.
'Those who reeaaaach to follow me, I welcome with my haaaands, and the red sun seems to last before the hills have goooold, the story of this young warrior without the sound of guns'.
They came through on that joint

I'll ask him on part 2
If there's a part 2, have some more questions (yes, I'm a DR stan of the level I have more than 6 questions for J-Flexx)
1) He dropped Billboard Dreams in 2007. How many of those tracks were recorded on Death Row? I know Billboard Dreams was a DR track, and believe Man with a Plan and Into the Wind are as well.
2) Did he work with 2pac at all or did he just pen California Love for Dre? Also, what did he think about the Dre Solo version that leaked a few years ago?
3) When did he leave the label? He produced the 3 tracks for Chronic 2000 and then seemingly disappeared.

If Suge had just said "ok, fukk him anyway, let's move on" and forgot about Dre (
AND the videos were censored too like they were on MTV. Snoop's Chronic hat with a blur over it in the "Death Row Uncut" video
Yeah, Suge was too distracted with dissing his former artists lol
His hate for all of his former artists overshadowed everything moving forward and it’s still like that today when you listen to him talk. He never takes ownership for his own mistakes, it’s always someone else fault
In the end, it was Suge who couldn’t let go of the past and just move on. He should’ve been focusing more on signing new rappers and producers and making new music

Sorry I don’t

I think being sent to jail for several years after 2pac died sped up the bitterness, jealousy, and hatred towards Dre and Snoop which led to going fukkery overload. Had Vegas not happened, the disses would still have come out but they probably would have moved on with the rumored 2pac/Snoop/Dogg Pound tour, the Makaveli album, Doggfather, Dogg Pound 2nd album, One Nation, and Danny Boy's album.
