[edit] Record Sales

In 1998 under Artimus Records he released a double album called Kuruption which went platinum (sold one million records)

Shortly after that he released The Streetz is a Mutha which also went platinum

Are there any sources for that? I've never heard Kurupt selling one million units of a solo album.

[edit] Snoop and Suge

The article says that "Snoop Doggy Dogg was eventually discovered by Suge Knight". The Warren G article claims that Snoop was discovered by Dre through his step-brother Warren G. The Snoop Dogg article doesn't say who discovered him. I was under the impression that Suge did not discover Snoop, but I could be wrong. Tim Ivorson 2006-06-18

Image:DPG-DC.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
