Suge Knight

Suge Knight has been released on bail from a Las Vegas jail after his Wednesday arrest for allegedly beating his girlfriend while driving.

This, of course, isn't Suge's first brush with the law. A little review: He was convicted of assault and placed on probation in 1992 for attacking two rappers at a recording studio. In 1995, he pleaded no contest to trafficking fire arms. After violating his probation in 1996 (by assaulting another man in a Las Vegas hotel), he was placed in jail for five years. In 2003, he went back to jail for 10 months for violating parole by punching a parking valet.

Just two days before his Look What You Made Me album was slated to drop, look what Yung Berg did. The "Sexy Lady" rapper (born Christian Ward) was arrested early Sunday morning in New York after police responded to a limo driver's complaint about a dispute with five passengers, according to TMZ.com.

Once the cops showed up, they arrested Berg, 22, and charged him with criminal possession of a weapon, criminal possession of marijuana and menacing. The other men in Berg's entourage were also reportedly hit with menacing charges. A spokesperson for the New York Police Department could not be reached for confirmation of the arrest at press time.
