By Ace Cannon
Warner Music Group is offering up to $25 million dollars for Death Row Records’ back catalog, according to The New York Post. In a recent filing related to Death Row’s bankruptcy case, WMG was named the leading "stalking-horse bidder" in Death Row’s Los Angeles-based bankruptcy proceedings. Over 10,000 titles are up for sale, including recordings by Tupac Shakur, as well as Snoop Dogg’s classic debut Doggystyle and Dr. Dre’s landmark album The Chronic. Other potential bidders, including Koch and Evergreen Copyrights, have until April to top WMG’s $25 million dollar offer.

Pac's catalog alone is worth millions.  10 years from now Pac music is gonna be worth much more.

a judge gave pacs mom all his material.  I don't even think they can legally sell it as a part of deathrow since Afeni Shakur has the copyrights for it.

C'mon familay ...
The "stalking-horse bidder" aint nothin but the first bidder, who sets the price. This is somethin that's actually good for Suge. Think on it.
WMG set the price at $25 mil. $25 million? It's already a set of folks that is in the pool, think how ya'll think $25 mil is reachable, what you think about them other companies? They mouths is wet.

@ ANDAR$ - Hey homie... unfortunately you are wrong, who ever owns those jammies hhave total control of that music  - greatest hits albums, movies, commercials, ringtones all that!

I wish Dre. and Snoop could purchase them, Dre. got paper but he aint wealthy... to lay out at least $25 mil aint no punk investment, that's a move for a BOSS, a real one like Jay, Puff or Fiddy or these labels... a lot of our favorite rappers aren't  caked up like you may think!....

is it me, but aint it crazy to see Suge in such a vulnerable position getting punked by some whimp attorneys and a lame judge...

I think Fiddy said it best 'damn homie... back in the day u was the man homie...'
