Rap mogul Marion “Suge” Knight was released from a Miami hospital late last week after being shot in the leg during a Kanye West-hosted party for the MTV Video Music Awards.
Due to patient confidentiality, a rep from the Mt. Sinai Medical Center, where Knight was treated, declined to disclose further details.
According to Miami police, Knight’s shooter approached the Death Row Records cofounder at a VIP table at the Shore Club and fired twice, hitting Knight in the upper right leg.
Mt. Sinai doctors performed an emergency operation to remove the bullet and mend the fractured bone.
Other than a tip that the assailant was a black male wearing a pink shirt, police said they had no leads in their investigation.
Knight also currently graces the cover of XXL’s October issue alongside his newest protégé, rapper Petey Pablo. In the article, Suge discusses his violent reputation and his efforts to rebuild Death Row.
In related news, Tha Row has released a statement regarding Kurupt’s new album, Against Tha Grain, which the label has refused to promote.
“Basically we do not support nor endorse this record. Many songs made for the album were removed by Koch,” the label stated. “This was not the intended Against Tha Grain we wanted to release and for this reason we urge fans not to purchase the album.”
