Mrs Shakur Takes Legal Action Against Death Row

Wed, 25 Jul 2007 05:36:09 +1000

Tupac Shakur's mother is seeking an injunction against Death Row records to prevent the label from releasing any Tupac recordings.

Following Tupac's death in 1996, Afeni Shakur helped set up Amur Entertainment as a means to manage her son's posthumous output. She believes that Death Row is still in possession of unreleased Tupac recordings, despite an agreement reached after the rapper's death which required all unreleased recordings to be given to his estate.

Death Row, which filed for bankruptcy in April 2006, is allegedly using the unreleased Tupac recordings to attract buyers.

In a statement from Amur Entertainment's lawyer, Donald N. David, "it was revealed that an album's worth of unreleased Tupac material was being advertised to potential buyers as the jewel in the crown of the Death Row assets."
