Additionally, Global Music Group receives the rights to 20 unreleased 2Pac songs in the deal.Suge Knight´s Death Row label has been left financially crippled by his time in jail and a lawsuit by a couple claiming to have helped him set up the company.

Knight said that two prison sentences - five years in 1996 for violating probation, and another year in 2003 for assaulting a parking attendant - had cost the company millions of dollars. The label and Knight filed for protection under Chapter 11 of federal bankruptcy law. Knight has claimed debts of more than $100 million.
