Death Row memorabilia and awards are up for grabs to the highest bidder. And, we are talking platinum records, electric chairs, and Dre and Snoop’s Source awards:

Many of the items set to hit the auction block later this month from Suge Knight’s famed West Coast rap label Death Row Records have been announced.

According to radio personality Miss Info, the public auction will allow fans to take home a piece of hip-hop history. Attendees will get the chance to place their bid on many of Suge Knight’s former possessions, including Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre’s “Source Awards,” Tupac Shakur collectibles and framed gold and platinum records. Also up for sale is the actual Death Row Records electric chair, 300,000 sealed CDs, and promotional materials from throughout the company’s history. For those interested in taking a sneak peak at all the above pieces a public inspection will take place on Friday, January 23 from 10 a.m. to 3 pm at 1930 W. Malvern Ave in Fullerton, CA. The auction is at 11 a.m. on Sunday, January 30 at the same warehouse.

As XXLmag.com previously reported, many potential buyers may be scared off by Knight’s shady reputation. A source told New York’s Daily News that, “Some people don’t want to go near the catalog because they think Suge still believes it’s his.” The former hip-hop mogul was forced to put the music up for sale after filing for bankruptcy in ’06. Authorities have tried unsuccessfully to put the extensive library on the auction block before, but all the prior deals have fell through.

That is an extensive amount of Hip-Hop history up for grabs thanks to that crook, Suge. Bossip Staff might shoot up there for the auction in Fullerton, Cali, and see what we can pick up for under a hundred.

    Dang, I wish they had some kind of absentee bidding. Suge had it all and blew with that thug persona he thought was so cute when he was a grown a$$ man. Idiot.

    I’m laughing at Suge Knight trying to be all gangster for real in the business world. It’s almost like he took his time as a defensive end at UNLV and tried to parlay that into a career of intimidation.

    Suge should have stayed on the grid iron and he’d be all pro and headed to Canton right now. Instead he’s on the town trying to strong arm repo men.

    Stop it, it happen’s all the time, that’s how MJ got the Beatles catalog, the real Question is why hasn’t a group of entertainer’s or pro ball player’s made a company and invested to cop this? u know y, cause there just stupid jock’s with doe, but don’t have a clue on how to generate cash by themselves, so look at it as there failure when it lands in the hands of the other man,n everytime a song or video play’s they get doe!

    They should just burn all that trash. Every thing that Suge Night and his boys touch has demons crowded all around it.

    Poor Suge, he really has hit rock bottom… Seen him New Years Eve in Vegas with a couple chicken heads at the Southpoint cafe… He looked in misery.
