Question: Why was Safe + Sound Suge Knight's last album at death row records? 
Context: Derrick Wade (born February 17, 1979 in Grenada, Mississippi) better known by his stage name Top Dogg is an American rapper.  Raised in Compton, California, Top Dogg was signed to Suge Knight's Death Row Records.  He was shot in April 2003 by Los Angeles Police after a heated argument broke out resulting in a shoot out.  He has been criticized for having a similar vocal style as former Death Row Records artist, Snoop Dogg. Smokefest Underground is the first independent album released by Snoop Doggy Dogg on May 19, 1998.  It was recorded with several labelmates and released after Snoop Dogg has left Death Row, so it has no label endorsement.  A video was shot earlier for the original single "Ride On" for the motion picture "Caught Up".  It was dedicated to Snoop Dogg's "Smokefest World Tour" concert tour.  It was an attempt to legally endorse previously unreleased Death Row Records copyrighted material (which was later re-released by Suge Knight in "Dead Man Walkin'") under cover of a concert-recorded "live" album. Dead Man Walkin' is a compilation album released by Death Row Records on October 31, 2000, composed of archived Snoop Dogg recordings but was not authorized by Snoop Dogg, nor recognized on the discography on his website.  Snoop Dogg was an artist on Death Row from 1992 to 1998, when he left the label following labelmate Dr. Dre's departure and the death of Tupac Shakur.  The split between Snoop Dogg and Death Row head Suge Knight was less than amicable, and the title of this release was an unfriendly warning from Knight to Snoop Dogg, who had spoken out against the imposing Knight in several interviews and on record as well.  According to SoundScan (2005), it has sold 220,478 copies.  A music video was released for Head Doctor. Death Row Records is an American record company founded in 1991 by Dr. Dre, Suge Knight and The D.O.C. Many West Coast artists were on the label, such as: Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Tupac Shakur, The Outlawz, MC Hammer, Young Soldierz, Sam Sneed, Michel'le, Jewell, RBX, The Lady of Rage, Danny Boy, DJ Quik, O.F.T.B., LBC Crew, and the rap group Tha Dogg Pound consisting of Kurupt, Daz Dillinger, Nate Dogg, Soopafly, and many others.  Death Row Records was making $100,000,000 a year, but by 1996; most of the aforementioned artists departed from the label after the death of 2Pac.  The company filed for bankruptcy in 2006 and on January 15, 2009, was auctioned to entertainment development company WIDEawake Entertainment Group, Inc. for $18,000,000 Danny Boy Steward (born October 31, 1977) is a Chicago native known by his stage name Danny Boy or DB.  He is a contemporary African-American soul singer originally signed for a five-year run with Death Row Records by Suge Knight.  He made his debut on 1994's Murder Was the Case soundtrack with the R&B charter Come When I Call (Produced by DJ Quik).  In 1995, he released his first single entitled Slip N Slide (Produced by Reggie Moore and co-produced by DeVante Swing) with then unknown artist Ginuwine singing the chorus.  The video was shot in Cabo, and also features scenes with 2Pac, Snoop Dogg, Nate Dogg and Tha Dogg Pound.  Danny is best known for singing the choruses of the 2Pac songs "I Ain't Mad at Cha", "What'z Ya Phone #", "Picture Me Rollin'" and "Heaven Ain't Hard 2 Find" on All Eyez on Me, as well as "Toss It Up" on .  He had recorded several albums' worth of music while on Death Row Records, but none were released during his time there.

He is the co-founder and former CEO of Death Row Records.  Death Row Records rose to dominate the rap charts after Dr. Dre's breakthrough album "The Chronic" in 1992.  After several years of chart successes for artists including Tupac Shakur, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Outlawz and Tha Dogg Pound, Death Row Records stagnated after Knight's incarceration on probation violation charges in September 1996 and went bankrupt in 2006. The Very Best Of Death Row is a 14-track compilation released by Death Row Records C.E.O/President Suge Knight and contains some of the best materials from artists such as 2Pac, Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre and more.  The last track is a previously unreleased track from both Death Row artists Petey Pablo and Kurupt.  The re-release of this album which came out on November 22, 2005 through the record label, Koch contains music videos to the material on the album. Tha Doggfather is the second studio album by American rapper Snoop Doggy Dogg.  It was released on November 12, 1996, by Death Row Records and Interscope Records.  After the success of his debut album "Doggystyle" (1993), Snoop was charged with murder and in 1995, spent time preparing for the case that went to trial.  In February 1996, he was cleared of all charges and began working on his second album without Dr. Dre providing work as a record producer.  This was Snoop's final album on Death Row Records under his name of "Snoop Doggy Dogg".  Recording sessions took place from February 1996 to October 1996, with Suge Knight filling in as the executive producer on the album, alongside the additional production from several record producers such as DJ Pooh, Daz Dillinger, Soopafly and L.T. Hutton; as well as guest appearances from Charlie Wilson, Kurupt tha Kingpin, Tray Dee and Warren G, among others. Safe + Sound is the third album by rapper/producer DJ Quik.  It was released on February 21, 1995 on Profile Records.  It peaked at number 14 on the "Billboard" 200 on March 11, 1995, number 1 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart the same date, & was certified Gold by the RIAA on July 11, 1995.  The album was executive produced by Suge Knight.  The album featured the singles "Dollaz & Sense" and "Safe + Sound". Against the Grain is the fourth studio album by rapper Kurupt and his first on Death Row Records as a solo artist.  Kurupt signed back on to Death Row Records, except as a solo artist in 2002.  The album was supposed to be released in 2004, but was delayed.  It was finally released in August 2005.  It was critical because it was Death Row's first freshly recorded album in over 4 years.  Unfortunately, the album went almost unnoticed due to the lack of promotion by Koch Records, which currently distributes all of Death Row's albums.  Furthermore, Death Row encouraged fans to not purchase this album because the track list was altered.  Certain tracks were removed and others added.  It did peak at number 60 on the Billboard 200 on September 2005.  The cut tracks were later released on a bootleg compilation titled "Against tha Grain E.P.".  The track "Calico" featuring The Dayton Family was also on their album Family Feud
