Suge Knight appeared on his friend Arsenio Hall show were he explained the comments he made about Game and Kendrick Lamar record deal with Interscope Records. Suge said he was not putting Game and Lamar down he was putting the company down saying “why is you treating my people like slaves?”  Suge believes the person who is dictating what going on at Interscope is Jimmy Lovine. Game who is from Compton is the best artist at Interscope and Lamar who is also from Compton is the best artist today, why do they have the worst record deal at Interscope(?).  Before Game get paid Universal gets their money, Interscope get their money, Aftermath get their money, G-Unit get their money and then there’s Game. There is not that much money in the pot.  Before Lamar gets paid there is Interscope, Aftermath, Top Dawg production and then Lamar. Suge said “if they do a show [and] $100,000 comes in, the manager of those guys get 20%. Now it’s eighty grand. Kendrick get half, the record company get half. Which is ridiculous because the artist should be able to live off their tours. If you can’t live off your tour money, how can you survive by being a slave? “How is you fucking over these dudes from Compton when they making the difference for your company?”
