@@Sangotayo it’s called self preservation! A person thinks of themselves first when something happens. People holla about who they got love for until some mess go down! Fear, scared, run & hide comes into play! He’s sick of talking about it. Maybe because over the years people look at him as a coward.
Facts. Sometimes he takes the conversation into a whole other space that it doesn't need to go, but he definitely asked a very good question. I've actually never heard anyone ask that.
Black men don't get any breaks. If Cease says he's hurting, then they'll tell him to "man up, nigga stop complaining and crying." If Cease goes to therapy they'll say "that niggas weak, letting the white man get in his head." If Cease doesn't do nothing, then he's a stand up soldier smh.
@Baby Lane Stanfield u sound crazy how can a person die make another niggas famous? He has hit songs and was a main face in a major rap group.. biggie writing for him made him famous if anything
Black people don't get therapy. Especially black men. Why do you think we're so filled with abnormal behaviors? I mean, we're BOMBARDED with stress and hatred from EVERYBODY (Including other black people, especially WOMEN) on a 24/7 basis, with no one to even RESPECT our mental health, much less acknowledge it, and we're blamed and condemned for things we have no control of, and OTHERS get EXTENSIVE help and treatments for!
Bruh cry me a river. That shit happened almost 30 years ago. Cease was very disrespectful here if you ask me. It’s a privilege for lil cease to be up there considering how huge maths platform has become. Cease was BIG’s little man. That’s it. He didn’t do shit after biggie passed. Of course people are going to ask you about the pivotal night that changed biggies life forever. If you don’t want to answer stop doing interviews.
I feel that but dog Cease is apart of some legendary shit in hip hop. If a nigga don’t think somebody gone ask him a question about Big Or PAC he might as well go missing.
Salute to Math and this episode. I really give salute to Bigga because he's the one that ends these topics on a spiritual connection. We always need that wise, level headed person to tie everything together and keep things in perspective...
It's so important that team members each add unique individual value. Bigga, Mecca & Math bring a lot to the table without echoing the same perspectives. When this went a bit left, Bigga knocked it back inbounds. I love the way these three let each other talk, everyone understanding the strengths of the other. I've always felt this trio was the backbone. Sometimes we lose what at the time, didn't belong.
Yeah, but it's HIS STORY, NOT YOURS! He's the one who decides whether you get to hear it or not! You're not automatically PRIVILEGED to get information from people just because they're in the public spotlight! Lol. What the hell is "Hip-Hop history" anyway??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@thedarkage187 Maybe they paid more. 🤷🏾♂️ Look at this point, everybody should shut the hell up and let a grown man live his life. None of you were there, none you you knows what happened, and none of you dealt with this situation for 25 years! Personally if I were him, I'd tell EVERYBDOY if they want to talk to me about it, it's a hundred dollars on the street for five minues, and talk shows we can negotiate, based on your ratings. Straight like that! 🤷🏾♂️
We gotta remember Cease lost his friend/idol before he was old enough to drink and we still asking him about it 25 years later! He done had to spend more than half his life talking about the worst thing that happened to him.
Because it’s become American history and not just hip hop culture history…that 25 year mark is coming soon so Cease better get his media training on….salute

He’s been informing the world for the past two decades tho. I would get annoyed too if I’m constantly asked about that situation. I mean he was on Vlad talking about it over a year ago

why?? its obvious he grimey and played a hand in all this thats why he get so antsy when being asked about biggie and 2 pac death and also why he stay so close to Faith
Straight up, not to mention Math being a playa about a lot of things. He simply asking questions others would have had less grace and flat out brought up the shit ppl really want to know. IE… Gene Deal said…. 😩
Lil Cease & Biggie definitely had a genuine friendship. You can tell they had a lot of love for each other. Sad that 2Pac and Biggie are no longer with us. May both rest in peace!
Cease needs to talk to someone who will help him sort through that experience. To me, he's fighting not to relive those moments because he lost a lot publicly. Math, this is a great forum !!!

On Jayz’s Juan Ep interview he talks about one night hanging out with Biggie and going to a club and Big saw some guys outside of the club and didn’t wanna go in. Jay said at that time they was young and ignorant so they was kinda talking behind Biggie back saying he was scared to go in. Later he realized Biggie wasn’t scared, he just didn’t wanna deal with that type of energy at that time and rather just avoided the situation fully. This is probably the type of paranoia he was dealing with at the time like they talk about in this clip.
@@reef9084 he's right, Jay doesn't have a track record for his bravery and is known for having people bail him out. Jay ran when he found kut Terror Squad was in the same building.
One of my fondest memories is I actually had the privilage to meet pac very briefly outside the tunnel in 1994 when i was 19 years old, he was smoking in a corner with couple of dudes he had with him and young napoleon was there with him too outside, walked up and said whats up to him and he said whats up back and i dapped him up. Small encounter but seemed like a cool ass dude man, niggas need to let the brother rest in peace already and stop rehashing these old ass negative stories smh. Niggas love talking about mistakes this dude did when he was a young nigga and died a young nigga smh
Salute Bigga, Math you have a blessing on your team. We need to hear from Bigga bc you can see he cares for his ppls. I gave the system 7 1/2 and life and death is real
I love the notorious big may his soul rest in peace . That was the rapper that was the sound track of my teenage years in Lagos Nigeria in 1994 to 1998 and beyond . The best rapper that ever did it the perfect example of a 100% rapper mc like no other ever . He is also the reason why I love newyork and Brooklyn why I wanna visit there soon . Infact I am gonna listen to everyday struggle now and reminise about myself as a 13year old kid and the year I first heard his debut album in Lagos Nigeria with my guys nostalgic 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🔥🔥🔥
Much respect to Cease he made some noise in the game he had his time but when he accepted this interview he knew wtf it was Hoffa not going to ask him bout future projects or albums dropping he knew the Biggie and Pac questions was coming it's like interviewing Shaq and he gets mad if you ask him bout Kobe
This convo is deep base on that situation. Gotta peep the words that were given. Whole time Hoffa asked how was their relationship, not what happened at the studio. RIP PAC and BIG though
I love the way Bigga bought the temple back down. A lot of people respect Bigga! My mother use to say that about people that death was on him. Some people see things differently then the rest of us. God has given them a gift!
Yo Math u da realest in da game I don't care what nobody say math mec & Bigga always ask the best questions & Bigga always make people calm down Becuz he didn't play around the quiet ones u always gotta watch n be careful
Cease is right to be irritated by having to relive hurtful drama every time he meets someone new but on the other hand he's a celebrity with first hand info about the drama behind two icons in the entertainment industry. These men get millions of new fans 20+ years after they've passed away. People that haven't heard the old interviews want the new interviewers to ask those questions.
We love you little Caesar just like we love big and your story is an inspiration to those that weren't there to live it tell your story over and over again you will because your inspirational Brooklyn love all day
C'mon now,Cease has done too many interviews to not know that he's going to be asked the same questions. Either dont do the interview or tell the hosts what not to ask before hand.
I love this interview for so many reasons. We as blacks have to understand the true meaning of trauma. Cease has not gotten over the situation and it bothers him but I think they’re missing that part. And Bigga just gets it. He removes all eagle and the other guys have to learn that
@@quincyredd3909 I don't mind being "black". It sets me apart from everyone else. I don't even WANT to be "brown", because that's what other people call themselves. As soon as we start relating yourselves to them, they'll change THEIR color! Lol. We have to face it....we're ALONE! Embrace black...it's not a bad thing anymore. Besides, the white supremacist system sees us as BLACK, and they USE the "brown" people against us!
@@futurefind674 Cool but the fact is black is not a skin color lol but I feel what you're saying. Who cares what people see you as, know the truth. White supremacy is based on a man made belief , im not gonna identify myself by what the white man calls me lol and brown people aren't being used by anybody. People make their own decisions so if they against us so be it!!
@@quincyredd3909 They actually ARE being used! It's up to them whether they are or not, but make no mistakes about it, anytime you subscribe yourself to being number TWO behind someone else, with NO intentions of gaining power for yourself, you're being USED by that person or group, and that's what evey other group does. Are ASIANS any threat to white supremacy? Hispanics? Arabs? East Indians? No! They all try to be a PART of White Supremacy, while FOUNDATIONAL BLACK AMERICANS FIGHT AGAINST IT, and are the ONLY people who do! Did you know they're allowing ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS to be POLICE OFFICERS??? What does that tell you? Doesn't that sound like someone is being USED to help enforce someone else's white supremacist social policies? You know, you don't have to be WHITE to be a white supremacist. Don't get caught up in semantics, man. I don't say shit without knowing what I'm talking about.
Cease not wanting to speak on it is understandable, but there's no one left to tell it. His account is the only one left, and the lesson he carries is important. We have to respect his position about speaking on anything having to do with his life's experiences, but this platform giving him a voice was invaluable. Respect and love to Ceasar Leo, and thank you Math Hoffa.
One thing I kan say lil cease story never changed up he only knows what he saw and it's a blessing that he kan give advice and guidance to Big daughter and son and talk wit Big mom 🙏❤
I’ll say this Math knows how to get under everyone’s skin, he’s a great interviewer. But props to Cease to standing his ground and this is from a Pac fan.
What? Math proved he absolutely does NOT know how to interview. Getting under someone’s skin is not a great way to interview anyone, ever. TF you talking about? Mekh
@@austinlaudry8335 getting under someone’s skin is actually a great way to conduct an interview. It creates conflict which the crowd (you and people at home watching) enjoy what you’re being fed. It also benefits Math Hoffa’s podcast
@@austinlaudry8335 I get your point that’s why I said props to cease for holding his ground. If you like or not Math was using investigative journalism skills to ask the questions sometimes it comes off like but he wanted to force some answers out of cease and ya you can say he was rude, but that’s the way it us
But we still can't change the fact that Big dropped Who Shot Ya, right after that for no reason. That song wasn't on Ready to Die & it wasn't a rollout for Life After Death, that's why it's always going to be a mystery behind that.
See there’s a huge misconception behind that song. Who Shot Ya was a B-side record to Big Poppa. It was never released to radio and no video was done for it. The streets made that record hot. Hindsight being 20/20 you can say the timing was off but at the time the song was recorded and released Big and Pac were still cool. Tupac for whatever took it upon himself to assume the song was about him and the rest is history.
@@shanny1162 Exactly..That Song was already made before shut went down and puff chose to capitalize off the situation by dropping it knowing no one would know who BiG was talking about but jump to conclusions… Including PAC and The West Coast 💯🤷🏿♂️
Hoffa’s journalistic skills were tested here, for the first time. He failed. He didn’t understand the situation correctly. This is very personal for Cease. This reminds me of confident Math walking into the Dizaster battle and getting punched in the mouth while he was smiling. He hasn’t learned. I think Diz would’ve been better prepared to interview Cease, given the chance…
Jimmy Henchmen set up Pac. But I find it hard to believe Big and Puff didn't know what was going on being in the studio with Henchmen with shooters in the lobby. Plus when Pac asked Big who set him up he played dumb.
@Chillhomie7 put yourself in pac shoes. Remember, big and pac was close at the time. Your close friend don't give you information. How would you feel. Answer that if you're ever in that situation
Look at it from a common sense standpoint. Prior to the shooting Big and Pac were friends. If dudes are thinking about setting up on Pac why would they forewarn Big knowing there’s a good chance he’ll tip Pac off to it?
I can understand Cease getting uptight about the line of questioning but at the same time that's Maths job. The fans always want to hear from someone who was there. Respectfully of course.
He better chill out. He was lucky enough to know pac and big personally, least he can do is answer questions regarding them. Not like anyone cares for his music that Big didn’t have shit to do with
Love this show Math! I wish someone could have asked him, why people keep asking him what happened? Because a lot of the story doesn't add up! That's just my personal opinion. Love the show! Keep going brother
He always gets so hostile when he’s asked. It was along time ago it shouldn’t be something so personal like that. It’s not like they’re asking what happened in La with big. That’s what should get him emotional but he always answers that normally. It’s off the way he acts honestly and it’s not like he can even really say yeah big set him up or knew.
@@colinc5531 I think what doesn't add up for me was number one, asking Pac to come around the back way instead of the main entrance. Then coming downstairs to get them, you see some sh** going down, you're first instinct is to just go back upstairs casually and tell biggie you saw something and forget about getting Pac. I think most people's intuition would be like, " I just told some homies to come through here and that might be them" Lil Ceas says he just went back up told biggie and just chilled for a long while, then decided to come down stairs after biggie didn't come back up right away. Again I think most people would think," we should go downstairs too, because now, Biggie is down there where someone got shot n robbed." I know there's a lot more and obviously not a lot of people were there but that's we're it gets me.
It doesn’t add up because Cease was the lil homie and probably ain’t know much. It was hurt for him to explain that Biggie was aware Pac was gonna get shot that night
BIG already warned Pac about hanging with Jack and Henchmen. It’s just the first example of Pac not being as gangsta as he thought he was. It would cost him in Las Vegas too.
Math, you need to cherish Bigga for real. He managed to bring the interview back when the energy was going left. Shout out to Bigga.
FACTS
Hell yeah I just seen that part and that's a real question
Yeah, one of the few times Bigga wasn’t the aggressor
Bigga is very much needed, he says what nobody else will say.
No lie detected.
I saw a serious trauma response. To us it’s history to him he is reliving some shit he wants to go away. Salute to everyone.
That’s a real ass statement you just said
Exactly
Tbh its trauma when you lost your befriend
True but what he’s reliving is how he left someone he had love for in the lobby to die. He can never change that.
@@Sangotayo it’s called self preservation! A person thinks of themselves first when something happens. People holla about who they got love for until some mess go down!

Bcs it affected him too
Feel like that one one of his best moments!

Salute Bigga, Math you have a blessing on your team. We need to hear from Bigga bc you can see he cares for his ppls. I gave the system 7 1/2 and life and death is real
Count on Bigga to set the standard 💯🐐
I love the notorious big may his soul rest in peace . That was the rapper that was the sound track of my teenage years in Lagos Nigeria in 1994 to 1998 and beyond . The best rapper that ever did it the perfect example of a 100% rapper mc like no other ever . He is also the reason why I love newyork and Brooklyn why I wanna visit there soon . Infact I am gonna listen to everyday struggle now and reminise about myself as a 13year old kid and the year I first heard his debut album in Lagos Nigeria with my guys nostalgic 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🔥🔥🔥
PAC’s the greatest to ever did it
I love my boy bigga all ways on point with his questions
Bigga really asked an amazing f@&! Shit gave me goosebumps
This is what annoys me about most people. It's that how can a person talk so much and for that long without actually saying shit?!!
Fax
Cease was talking some bull & you're absolutely right
he ALWAYS DOES THAT ON INTERVIEWS ... HE NEVER TELLS THE REAL SHIT
Started rocky but he definitely straightened out.Excellent job Bigga!
Bigga is the definition of OG
Much respect to Cease he made some noise in the game he had his time but when he accepted this interview he knew wtf it was Hoffa not going to ask him bout future projects or albums dropping he knew the Biggie and Pac questions was coming it's like interviewing Shaq and he gets mad if you ask him bout Kobe
This is so good. Wow salute 👑Cease 💯🔥🔥🔥🤩Math salute 👑 Bigga 🎶❤️🔥🎶👑
This convo is deep base on that situation. Gotta peep the words that were given. Whole time Hoffa asked how was their relationship, not what happened at the studio. RIP PAC and BIG though
I love the way Bigga bought the temple back down. A lot of people respect Bigga! My mother use to say that about people that death was on him. Some people see things differently then the rest of us. God has given them a gift!
Bigga killed that💯
Yo Math u da realest in da game I don't care what nobody say math mec & Bigga always ask the best questions & Bigga always make people calm down Becuz he didn't play around the quiet ones u always gotta watch n be careful
You’re on a podcast and u don’t wanna talk about big and 2pac?? U know ur gonna get asked this
@Bobby Illmatik with Cease it ain’t much more to talk about.
His daughter should bring back Brooklyn Mint Clothing line...
It's notoriouss clothing that's the brand name now.
I think part of the reason Cease was irritated is because BIG’s daughter was there in the shop.
💯 Cease keeping it real.
Podcast be= Feds sometimes.
DROP THE FULL EP!!!
Beeeen waiting on this one. Sean Bigga really turned the conversation around beautifully. Big up, Man of God.
Cease is right to be irritated by having to relive hurtful drama every time he meets someone new but on the other hand he's a celebrity with first hand info about the drama behind two icons in the entertainment industry. These men get millions of new fans 20+ years after they've passed away. People that haven't heard the old interviews want the new interviewers to ask those questions.
I really just need to hear his perspective on that wake up show freestyle.
We love you little Caesar just like we love big and your story is an inspiration to those that weren't there to live it tell your story over and over again you will because your inspirational Brooklyn love all day
I mean he knew this subject would come up when he agreed to do the interview
Exactly..
Word
Bigga is definitely my favorite cause he gets it much love brotha ✊🏾
C'mon now,Cease has done too many interviews to not know that he's going to be asked the same questions. Either dont do the interview or tell the hosts what not to ask before hand.
I love this interview for so many reasons. We as blacks have to understand the true meaning of trauma. Cease has not gotten over the situation and it bothers him but I think they’re missing that part. And Bigga just gets it. He removes all eagle and the other guys have to learn that
We as "blacks" have to stop saying "blacks"! We're BLACK PEOPLE!!! ✊🏾😉
Or even better , we are not actually “black” lol black is the color of maths Hoffa t shirt ⚫️, we are different shades of brown
@@quincyredd3909 I don't mind being "black". It sets me apart from everyone else. I don't even WANT to be "brown", because that's what other people call themselves. As soon as we start relating yourselves to them, they'll change THEIR color! Lol. We have to face it....we're ALONE! Embrace black...it's not a bad thing anymore. Besides, the white supremacist system sees us as BLACK, and they USE the "brown" people against us!
@@futurefind674 Cool but the fact is black is not a skin color lol but I feel what you're saying. Who cares what people see you as, know the truth. White supremacy is based on a man made belief , im not gonna identify myself by what the white man calls me lol and brown people aren't being used by anybody. People make their own decisions so if they against us so be it!!
@@quincyredd3909 They actually ARE being used! It's up to them whether they are or not, but make no mistakes about it, anytime you subscribe yourself to being number TWO behind someone else, with NO intentions of gaining power for yourself, you're being USED by that person or group, and that's what evey other group does. Are ASIANS any threat to white supremacy? Hispanics? Arabs? East Indians? No! They all try to be a PART of White Supremacy, while FOUNDATIONAL BLACK AMERICANS FIGHT AGAINST IT, and are the ONLY people who do! Did you know they're allowing ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS to be POLICE OFFICERS??? What does that tell you? Doesn't that sound like someone is being USED to help enforce someone else's white supremacist social policies? You know, you don't have to be WHITE to be a white supremacist. Don't get caught up in semantics, man. I don't say shit without knowing what I'm talking about.
Here we go again
Nobody wanna hear about your favorite rapper lil’ pump. Go to sleep
never knew cease was this tuff
Cease not wanting to speak on it is understandable, but there's no one left to tell it. His account is the only one left, and the lesson he carries is important. We have to respect his position about speaking on anything having to do with his life's experiences, but this platform giving him a voice was invaluable. Respect and love to Ceasar Leo, and thank you Math Hoffa.
He's told this story for 30yrs and he's ready for some new questions 😂, same thing with Dame Dash being tired of Jay-Z and Roc questions.
Cease they just like to hear the legendary story over & over
One thing I kan say lil cease story never changed up he only knows what he saw and it's a blessing that he kan give advice and guidance to Big daughter and son and talk wit Big mom 🙏❤
That shit hurt to see ya man's get murdered in front of he....it's still fucks him up ..shit crazy
DAMN "Don't put me in no water & expect me to swim when you know I can't swim" 🗽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💡💡 That was some real STUY SHIT...ON GOD🙏🏽
I’ll say this Math knows how to get under everyone’s skin, he’s a great interviewer. But props to Cease to standing his ground and this is from a Pac fan.
What? Math proved he absolutely does NOT know how to interview. Getting under someone’s skin is not a great way to interview anyone, ever. TF you talking about? Mekh
@@austinlaudry8335 getting under someone’s skin is actually a great way to conduct an interview. It creates conflict which the crowd (you and people at home watching) enjoy what you’re being fed. It also benefits Math Hoffa’s podcast
@@austinlaudry8335 I get your point that’s why I said props to cease for holding his ground. If you like or not Math was using investigative journalism skills to ask the questions sometimes it comes off like but he wanted to force some answers out of cease and ya you can say he was rude, but that’s the way it us
Math understand the mission and I be wanting to hear these stories also I understand when people don’t like to speak on certain situations
It’s a sensitive topic for him.
Salute Bigga! Can’t silence GOD you know the Math, Hoffa. Stay 💯
It’s called Divine Intervention 🎯
That night to degree started the ball rolling towards B.I’s untimely death giving him flash backs
Cease is the greatest weed carrier of all-time
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
U ain't right dog ....he a better weed carrier than outlaws lol
@@antoniomaxwell1698 actually, Consequence may have all of them beat. He carried weed in two eras. For Tribe Called Quest and Kanye 😂
@@grinchoi1 nigga you funny
This was the realest video I ever heard
But we still can't change the fact that Big dropped Who Shot Ya, right after that for no reason. That song wasn't on Ready to Die & it wasn't a rollout for Life After Death, that's why it's always going to be a mystery behind that.
He did not
Big ain't dropped nothin...Puff did that
See there’s a huge misconception behind that song. Who Shot Ya was a B-side record to Big Poppa. It was never released to radio and no video was done for it. The streets made that record hot. Hindsight being 20/20 you can say the timing was off but at the time the song was recorded and released Big and Pac were still cool. Tupac for whatever took it upon himself to assume the song was about him and the rest is history.
@@shanny1162 Exactly..That Song was already made before shut went down and puff chose to capitalize off the situation by dropping it knowing no one would know who BiG was talking about but jump to conclusions… Including PAC and The West Coast 💯🤷🏿♂️
@@Polostar79 Somebody with some actual knowledge…Thank you
I think the whole cast of My expert opinion did a great job.
coming out with who shot ya right after pac got shot was bad timing!!!!
That was Puffy he was running Big Career, just like it was puffy decision for Big to go to LA.
On Puff’s part. Big had no say so in when records got released.
So Biggie had no say in performing it or mimicking it in Jay’s Dead President video?
if my so called friend came out with a song called who shot ya?I'd feel some kind of way too
@@mobentlymobby2186eah the song should’ve never have been made by the friend - it’s what gives reasonable doubt to the friends suspicions .....
Another classic interview!
Hoffa’s journalistic skills were tested here, for the first time. He failed. He didn’t understand the situation correctly. This is very personal for Cease. This reminds me of confident Math walking into the Dizaster battle and getting punched in the mouth while he was smiling. He hasn’t learned. I think Diz would’ve been better prepared to interview Cease, given the chance…
I alway think of Diz when I hear Maths outro bout smacking rappers 😂
Damn this deep, Bigga coming through ✊🏽
Jimmy Henchmen set up Pac. But I find it hard to believe Big and Puff didn't know what was going on being in the studio with Henchmen with shooters in the lobby. Plus when Pac asked Big who set him up he played dumb.
"Promise the payback Jimmy Henchmen, in due time// I know you bit$% ninjas is listening, the world is mine//
Maybe puff man but 2pac made his own enemies why’d he have to go after big like that?
@Chillhomie7 put yourself in pac shoes. Remember, big and pac was close at the time. Your close friend don't give you information. How would you feel. Answer that if you're ever in that situation
Look at it from a common sense standpoint. Prior to the shooting Big and Pac were friends. If dudes are thinking about setting up on Pac why would they forewarn Big knowing there’s a good chance he’ll tip Pac off to it?
@@slip-n-rollboxing1826 pac was supposed to be a gangster and a thug. He played himself
I would love to hear Bigga speak more!
I can understand Cease getting uptight about the line of questioning but at the same time that's Maths job. The fans always want to hear from someone who was there. Respectfully of course.
Cease has been telling the story the same way for 20+ years.
Cease gets compensated for this interview. He could've just stayed home.
@Terence never told it on this forum, so why be upset when you know people want to know what happened.
He better chill out. He was lucky enough to know pac and big personally, least he can do is answer questions regarding them. Not like anyone cares for his music that Big didn’t have shit to do with
Love this show Math! I wish someone could have asked him, why people keep asking him what happened? Because a lot of the story doesn't add up!
That's just my personal opinion. Love the show! Keep going brother
💯
What part of the story dont add up ?....
He always gets so hostile when he’s asked. It was along time ago it shouldn’t be something so personal like that. It’s not like they’re asking what happened in La with big. That’s what should get him emotional but he always answers that normally. It’s off the way he acts honestly and it’s not like he can even really say yeah big set him up or knew.
@@colinc5531 I think what doesn't add up for me was number one, asking Pac to come around the back way instead of the main entrance. Then coming downstairs to get them, you see some sh** going down, you're first instinct is to just go back upstairs casually and tell biggie you saw something and forget about getting Pac. I think most people's intuition would be like, " I just told some homies to come through here and that might be them"
Lil Ceas says he just went back up told biggie and just chilled for a long while, then decided to come down stairs after biggie didn't come back up right away. Again I think most people would think," we should go downstairs too, because now, Biggie is down there where someone got shot n robbed." I know there's a lot more and obviously not a lot of people were there but that's we're it gets me.
It doesn’t add up because Cease was the lil homie and probably ain’t know much. It was hurt for him to explain that Biggie was aware Pac was gonna get shot that night
Y’all gotta step yall game up as a show
Pac didn’t say biggie Robbed him. He’s saying biggie didn’t warn him that it was about to go down
Pac said he set him up or knew it was going to happen. Nothing Cease can say to remedy what folks thinks.
And BIG knew dem neggaz was grimy!! BIG knew somethin cause neggaz talk all day long bout what they gon do!!
Facts
Saying someone knew about it is inferring they had something to do with it. That’s no different than saying Big did it himself.
BIG already warned Pac about hanging with Jack and Henchmen. It’s just the first example of Pac not being as gangsta as he thought he was. It would cost him in Las Vegas too.
Damn Bigga turn the interview around good stuff
Lol...Cease is gettin' kinda spicy. On the real, nobody wants to discuss all of Cease's hits; they want to know about BIG, Pac, and the dirt.
He was salty lol 😂 pac and big the goats despite the beef
Which Hits?
Thats the thing. Dame Dash gets mad about Jay Z questions. But that is like 85% of the reason you are on the show.
I guess you mean all the hits that big probably wrote
That big wrote
Wow, great talk.
Cease came apart right before their eyes; he still dealing with alot of things.
Great interview
Cease wasn't honest bout Big think'n "someone try'n to kill me",. I'm quite sure he knows more
