| | When we're in a quandary about what holiday gift to buy that special
someone, we often ask ourselves: What would rap music impresario Suge
Knight do? For the
Death Row Records boss, the answer used to be simple: Rolex and
Gucci watches, gold necklaces, and diamond-studded
pendants. With Suge (real first name: Marion) doing hard time in
a California prison,
his choices today are limited to: a) loose cigarettes or b) Cheetos
from
the commissary. As these receipts from a Los Angeles jeweler show, Suge's
1995 shopping list included lavish presents for his mother, father,
nephew, sisters, friends Stormy and Dimples, someone identified as "wife
#4," and Death Row artists Tupac Shakur and Snoop Doggy Dogg. These
documents were filed as part of a lawsuit brought by the jeweler, who
claims Suge did not pay his bills. (6 pages)
