I think the FBI and the US tried to stop people like suge knight, because the rap industry became some king of black organized crime. When you have groups or people like suge knight, J.Prince, Harry O, BMF, Boobie Boys, many people from nyc, LA or Atl. Big drug dealers, this industry become some kind of crime families.
Lets be honest, the rap industry like many other industries is controled by gangsters.
Aren't a lot of supposed " gangster " rappers simply actor musicians who happen to act out some of their lyrical content in real life though ? This is a topic unto itself , but I was actually watching a documentary about so called gangster rappers in contemporary Chicago the other day , and pretty much all the fellows in it fit that description .
Of course I could be wrong , but I highly doubt actual black gangsters would engage in that kind of attention seeking behavior , especially ones of Jeff Fort caliber .
