Suge Knight originally signed Danny to Death Row back when the rapper was just 16 years old. During his time with the company, he appeared on 2Pac‘s All Eyez on Me and The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory as well as the soundtrack to Murder Was the Case. The label, unfortunately, shelved his own debut album, It’s About Time, but the project did eventually see the light of day in 2010. Snoop previously mentioned being interested in bringing Danny back to Death Row, last year. He acquired the label back in 2022.
