According to reports, the jailed music executive has been hospitalized.

Knight reportedly spoke on his own behalf Monday in court — after he fired the lawyers handling his case — and said he was receiving inadequate treatment in jail. Moments later he was taken to the hospital. Sources tell us a doctor informed the rap mogul on Friday his eyesight was getting really bad. Suge reportedly shared that info in court before he was hospitalized. (TMZ)

Check out the latest twist in Suge’s fatal hit and run case on the next page…

Recent reports claimed footage may have shown Suge fled for his life after having a gun aimed at him in a fatal hit and run incident in January.

Suge Knight now has a video of the entire parking lot altercation that resulted in a man’s death — and sources connected to Suge tell us it shows someone holding a gun and pointing it ominously at Suge, and that person is Cle “Bone” Sloan. Our Suge sources believe the video clearly shows the fight leading up to the fatal hit and run was an ambush. We’re told you see a gun in Bone’s hand … and it looks like another person is also there holding a gun. (TMZ)

Reports revealed Knight had a bail review hearing pushed back to March 20 last month.

Knight, 49, appeared healthy and sipped from a cup of water a sheriff’s deputy gave him while he sat handcuffed in orange jail garments in a Compton courthouse Monday morning. The former head of Death Row Records has been in custody since being arrested on suspicion of running over two men with his car, killing one of them. (Los Angeles Times)

Suge appeared in court last month to address his criminal charges.

Former rap mogul Marion “Suge” Knight pleaded not guilty Tuesday to murder charges in a fatal hit-and-run incident before complaining of chest pains in court and being taken to the hospital. Knight, 49, stood in a defendant’s box next to his attorneys and intently read the complaint against him as the hearing opened. (CNN)

      • Lost label. Lost Dre and had to watch him become a Billionaire. Ko’d and the Photos went Viral. Shot. Potentially going to Jail for vehicular homicide. You’re right. It’s all going his way….

        • You can also add that he had to watch diddy become basically a billionaire cause i mean if 800 mil means a bil then so does a net worth of 700 mil

      • This dude is a menace to society man, seriously no good in him. He is trouble everywhere he goes.

        • he a menace? how? why because he bout what he say he bout and when he crank on niggaz who aint bout what they say they bout he the bad guy? yall young niggaz is soft man im an 80’s baby so i guess we cut from a diffrenct cloth lol

          • LOL you can’t be serious? I am older than you BTW, and yes Suge is a threat and been a threat to society for a long time. Everywhere he goes there is trouble and drama, act your age. I guess I am older and more mature then you in that way of thinking. Older heads settle eventually and act their age.

          • Slim is who he is and has never been nothing but who the fuck he says he is. he suge knight it is what it is. just like j prince still drop shit talkin bout touchin families and jay z still talk about selling dope and etc etc. suge still a street nigga thats him

          • Yeah I guess your right, but that will get your ass locked up or in trouble alot. He got laid out a few times too from doing that at his age, so I guess he gets what comes to him for being street. He is lucky he has not been killed yet honestly, that or locked up for a long time. BTW Jay talks about that on records, totally different with all the money then going out there and doing it at his age, different set of examples there. Most rappers talk about stuff they do not do, that part is entertainment and won’t get you locked up or killed as in doing stuff Suge does. J Prince always been Prince though, although he doesn’t go out and just do dumb stuff like Suge all the time and is more behind the scenes.

          • You see, when you cake up, you have no reason to keep doing hood shit. People living below the poverty line are different. He has no reason to keep doing that shit. How you could be a Suge apologist is beyond me.

      • Sun has been playing the Goon role for a minute now…can’t shed no tears for Boss stuck on stupid, so therefore say no more…TYC My G…

      • Uhhhh ya? Lmao. him along with like 90% of the rest of the world want it to happen.

        • well im cut form the cloth of the other 10 percent and i wish jail on no man other than pedophiles and rapist, i dont wish jail on street niggaz for doing street nigga shit to other dudes who are street niggaz doing street nigga shit ijs

    • How is he reaching??? He had guns drawn on him, ol boy Bone is the one that is going to end up catching a case.

  1. Don’t you guys understand??? This is the one time were Suge is innocent, they had guns on him.

    • The only people that reported that there were guns or gunmen was suge knights lawyer(s) and/or suge himself. No one not even witnesses or ppl around the scene reported guns being at or around the scene. Its obvious who’s lying here

      • Yet me ask you something… What would make a man run over his own friend that came with him???
