Infamous items up for bid at the “Death Row Auction” on Jan. 25, ordered up by the US Bankruptcy Court on behalf of Suge Knight and Death Row Records. The controversial L.A. gangster rap label and its fearsome owner ran their pop culture course into the ground shortly after its flagship star, Tupac Shakur, was gunned down in Las Vegas in 1996.
