During Suge Knight’s incarceration between 1997 and 2002, Tha Luniz’ Yukmouth was an artist close to Death Row Records. The Bay area emcee, a former Rap-A-Lot Records artist, both stood up to Master P and No Limit Records, but also founded Tha Regime with then-Row artist Tha Realest. He has worked with artists such as Tha Dogg Pound and Crooked I during their tenures at Knight’s former label.
New reports say that is no longer the case. TMZ.com reports that Knight and his associates robbed Yukmouth of nearly $100,000 in jewelry at a supermarket in the San Fernando valley. The robbery also included a beating of the emcee who co-wrote “I Got 5 On It”
.
A warrant for Knight’s arrest has reportedly been issued, which goes along with an existing warrant.
Yukmouth has yet to release a statement. HipHopDX will keep you updated.
