    For the short amount of time that Death Row Records was around they made history that forever be a big part of hip hop and music.

      In a way you could say Death Row was the WCW of Hip Hop. Rapid rise to the top, short but dominant peak followed by a rapid descent to a shell of its former glory.

      Snoop Dogg is trying to make history again with death row records, he wants to make it into an NFT label and only release albums in the meta-verse. he removed the entire death row catalog off of streaming.

      @@ducatarina8310 15 million is very low number these are U.S. sales, I think death Row with Tupac in the lead sold 40 million copies in U.S. and 60 million worldwide, but No Limit Records sold 30 million records in 1998 alone, THAT'S INSANE!!!! TO PUT IT LIGHTLY
      HERES HOW NO LIMIT STACKS UP.
      1998-
      My Balls and my word- 1,000,000
      Life or death- 2,000,000
      Charge it 2 the Game- 2,000,000

      One in every Family- 1,500,000
      She'll shocked- 480,000
      (Mac's own mother said this album went platinum and his second album went gold) but for now I will stick with the 400,000)
      Am I my Brother's Keeper- 785,000

      Guilty Until Proven Innocent - 500,000 shipped
      Ghetto Organized - 500,000 in a month

      Wise guys - 500,000
      Black Mafia- 150,000
      Memorial Day- 50,000
      (This is heartbreaking because this is a damn good album)
      Mama Drama- 2,800,000
      We Can't Be Stopped - 1,000,000
      Ghetto Fabulous - 2,900,000
      No Limit Soldiers Collection - 500,000 copies.
      This currently is 27 million copies but a commercial from 1999 said no limit sold 30 million records in the US
      Before I recently did some digging beyond Wikipedia because you have to take what it says with a grain of salt, I remember something , No limit records dropped 23 or 24 records in 1998 but the number seed too low to me, and it seems I'm not alone.
      Puff daddy remember - 39
      Bird man- 36
      Height the great- 36
      A few of my friends remember - 36

      @@IkennaKonkwo2-lz8lj Death Row was living on borrowed time as early as 1995. It was clearly rudderless after the Murder Was The Case soundtrack. No real direction. 80% of the roster was interchangeable. Death Row from 1995-1996 existed solely on the momentum accrued from 1992-1994. It was terminal by early 1995 and nothing could save it.

    Tha Doggfather album didn't tank / flop... It went #1 and sold over 3 million possibly 4 million worldwide. With over 2.5 million sold in the U.S. alone

    Snoop dogg did that so he can try to make sure all the artists get their respective royalties and that’s why he’s gonna make the streaming app and whatever album or song is streamed that money is given to the artist since suge fucked over most of the artists out of their cash

    I don't think Snoop is going to do anything but lose or sell it off.
