Sharif gets mocked and clowned throughout that movie. The Hughes brothers made the conscious brother seem corny and the gangsters seem cool af in that movie. So giving that role to Pac was disrespectful. I'm not surprised he didn't want to do it.
Art imitated life they made the movie real. In every hood they clown and mock the most smart, talented, and normal. I knows guys who got bullied cause his parents were married all his siblings were his real siblings no half brothers or sisters this before the movie so it wasn't a way to hate it was realistic art
Menace 2 Society is to Boysz n the Hood as Scarface is to Goodfellas. Obviously neither are on the Level of Good Fellas but Boyz is a much more fleshed out movie

The actor that played Sharif's father (Sharif) explained in the movie the process of how Sharif changed ...."You know Sharif use to get into all types of @#$%...if Allah can make a better man than Jesus can..." I don't think the issue with 2Pac was about the character. I think he wanted more screen time and he wanted to Hughes brother to shed more detail in the script which would be beneficial to his acting career because he would be more visible in the film. After being one of the main guys in Juice, he didn't want to take a smaller role.
@@Bless_301 the could have but they probably didn't want to work with him. 2Pac has one of those bigger than life personalities. It's either you love it or hate it. I think that hated it but tried to ride it out because of the studio executives
I think that was a fair request from Tupac. I think the role of the director, is to sit down with the crew,and explain the purpose of the movie, and it's subsequent impact on the society. Moreover, explaining the different roles of characters, and why? Tupac knew all of that so...that's it.
Esp since the Pink elephant in the room was this entire project is being pushed bc of (Tupac’s) presence. They definitely owed him more than a reduced unexplained role
Exactly cause they could have given a quick flash back scene when sherif stayed with Kane cousin. They could have shown a quick flash back scene showing why and then coming back to when wax said fuck that we out
I think Pac was conscious of his reach and career path at that time. His plan to reach the ghettos was already in swing. We saw Pac go from heartfelt 'Keep Your Head Up' to later switching it up to the gangster street shit. In that moment, it was important to him for the movie to reflect the narrative he was trying to put out.
Whats funny is that hes saying what pac was trying to say in his rap "only a few love me" which is soo true everyone wanted to just bank off of pac but didnt wanna deal with the brains behind the money maker.
@@shawny6178 he knew he. Was being. Played and used. They prolly just added sharif in the script cause they needed pac in the movie. Pac also didn’t understand playing a Muslim gangbanger, according to napoleon, cause he said that doesn’t exist
I’m not calling him a liar but I don’t think I believe that’s the reason he was upset. He pretty much played a guy on the straight and narrow in Poetic Justice.
I can believe it because of the type of movie it was. It would make him look like a square/sucka. As a young Alpha male your reputation/image is everything to you.
Pac knew the only reason why production was giving the Hughes brother the money to do the movie was a condition of 2 pac had to play in the movie because of his popularity at the time the big wigs felt they would capitalize off him.
I dont think Pac did that cause he wanted to play the gangsta role ..from juice to poetic justice …it was totally diferent character …when he ask why the character turn this way i think for him he needed that to feed into the role my P.O.V
Y’all stop bringing up Poetic Justice, do u dumb niggaz realize that was a totally different type of movie. It wasn’t no shoot ‘em up, bang, bang type of film, so of course Pac was fine with that role! Smdh!
TRUDAT. But Larenz Tate, god damn. He played the shit outta that role. & u know it. But the Hughes brothers should’ve had a meeting with pac before the movie was even written don’t you think?
@@jay07261986 lol or Pac was proven to be a boxoffice success as a main character already...... this was eiht and shorts first movie. big rappers but at the time unproven actors.
The Hughes Brothers also did Dead Presidents and Book Of Eli. Great films. Some people just don’t get along. I can’t takes sides in beef with people I don’t know.
@@twocents6951 okay since you name movies they've done first of all Dead Presidents didn't make no sense because why didn't do just Rob the pimp instead of the bank didn't make no sense, now book of Eli speaks for itself Denzel carried that movie CGI was the supporting cast😏
So pac talks all thus Rightouess shit do the right thing when he was alive talking black empowerment yet he doesn't wanna play the straight and narrow character typical egotistical human that's why he died because his ego got the best of him typical famous person expects everything to go his way
I'm late when it comes to MC 8 interviews on this channel. Being from LA myself, & how he paints a picture thru his articulation, is awesome, & accurate. I'm gonna look for more of his interviews. 👌🏽
I like the idea of Pac being in that movie woulda been epic but now it makes me like him more that he wouldn’t tolerate the slight..he was smart enuff to know how that would have tainted his rap career..
@@paymyself1st430 Tupac's rap career tainted him. Had he played Sharif, he woulda killed it. All of the actors played their roles as planned. The Hughes Brothers are brilliant for that. They touched on several important issues in that movie. 🤎🤎🤎
I don't think the Sharif character would've been a stretch for Pac. He could've went into his aggressive _conscious mode_ - the one we've seen in many interviews when he is speaking about the Black experience. Then, he could've came out with a whole separate movie detailing how Sharif came up. There could've been _many_ branches leading up to the original movie or branching out from it. Pac had pull like that.
according to a couple people the original reason they got they movie deal was on the strength of saying Pac was gonna be in the movie. they didn't really want him there they just felt like they needed him at the time from my point of view. but once they got the ball rolling the exed him out the picture, you know the story after that lol
That's what I said. This role would not have been a big stretch for him. He could have went back to his "White manz world" days. Which is one of his better songs. I believe he would have done great as Sharif.
If PAC woulda just did the role and brought a his own charm we would be sitting here talking about his diverse acting range when we speak on his legacy….kinda a shame it didn’t happen
I definitely agree with this assessment. This makes me think about Denzel Washington. For most of his acting career, he portrayed a clean, straight and narrow, good-guy image -- but when he dropped Training Day, it was notably different from the roles I was used to seeing. But he played the role so well that it made me like him even more. He played his character so well that I didn't even want him to die (even though, he deserved it). It simply added to his legacy of his entertainment value and versatility. Now, I find myself thinking that Training Day might be my favorite movie featuring him (even though, he made many other great films).
@@sleepydank8330 understood. But in a movie like Menace II Society, he could have possibly made an even greater impact because many of the main characters portrayed themselves as violent, misguided, and didn't gaf -- Pac could have been the guy who brought sanity, a sense of direction, and morality to the situation and with his charisma that he could have injected into his role, he could have possibly endeared a lot more observers. I understand that Pac wanted to add a backstory to his potential character, but I also think he was being difficult to work with. While I agree that he demonstrated a relatively "good guy" imagine in Poetic Justice, I think that he could have had a greater impact in Menace II Society.
Only thing is shareef role wasn’t a lot of screen time he didn’t have many lines that’s the thing that’s all but I feel you . Understand pac would have took the role of shareef was in the film more . PAC not taking the role was more impactful than the shareef role. He killed poetic justice, above the rim ,bullet ,gridlock, gang related, and of course juice role and cameo in movie nothing but trouble with digital underground
@@suave_d yes but pac questioned the fact that the character of shiereef was a Muslim, who was hanging out with gangsters who had guns and smoked, sold drugs drank ect ect, pac understood a real Muslim wouldn’t be within those environments and that’s Muslim gangster didn’t exist, he played and potrayed an authentic hard working young man looking after in poetic justice, he didn’t need to portray this in menace the character can be seen as being contradictory for his hanging out with non Muslim gangsters .
Maybe the Hughes Brothers had a different vision with Pac...his last name Shakur holds a lot of weight. He could have flipped that, and made it work for him. the best actors have a wide range of roles they play. Maybe if Pac killed that role, it would have been another one under his belt. Just a 🤔💭
That Shariff role was wack as hell, can`t blame Pac for turning it down.The guy that played Shariff never became a star because he never got a role that would elevate his acting career. But at the same time Pac should have just walked out and just charge it to the game, assaulting one of Hughes brothers was uncalled for.
I think Larenz Tate in that movie to me was the best character role he ever played for me. I think that pac wanted that role a little bit more than Larenz. I would’ve been good with either of them playing Kane’s best friend. The Hughes brothers could’ve did something creative with the hottest act in that time period. So they dropped the ball on that one.
Big up to these interviews. A day doesn’t go by that Straight up Menace doesn’t play on my iPod when I’m driving to and from work. But… Ya man uses air quotes “a lot”.
The huge brothers knew what they where doing tryna play 2pac out to be the square when they knew he was doing the gangsta roles making a character that made no sense fing lames that's why 2pac handled them plus pac played the roles beyond gangsta in other movies he was amazing in so that did none to his career but made him bigger.
Yes pac really wanted to play odog lol but larenz literally embodied odog. Pac would have been good as sharif too , the dear mama/ Brenda got a baby Pac, not the to live and die in LA death row Pac. I love how 8 explain it. He’s still so hard in his Compton dialect. Rip Pac!
McEiht spent 4 minutes on why he think they gave Pac that role on purpose, and Art follow up question is "so do you think they gave Pac that role on purpose" , I swear Art asks some dumb questions in his interviews.
Wrong dude, my man. The guy who played Sharif is the same burnt shaved bird lookin’ nigga that convinced Ricky to throw him the football. He also punched Dough Boy in his fat belly when DB tried to take it back. That big nigga wearing the durag told ‘shaved bird’ to “…give tha ‘lil nigga his ball back.”.
@@HeavyMental1000 he really gave no details of anything that happened in his life. It was literally one sentence. They should have actually shown us a flash back or something.
@@JayBelafonte Why do all that for a side character? Sharif actually got more back story than O-Dog who has about 90% more screen time. And what about the A-Wax? The audience is smart enough to understand the crux of the character without an unnecessary flashback. This was more about Tupac's ego. He was Tupac for god's sake. He could have just turned the part down and jumped on a different movie if he wanted to.
@@HeavyMental1000 that’s the entire point why Pac was not a fit for that role. Although having background on some of them would have expanded the movie the same way as “Boyz in the Hood”. That way when they died it would have been more emotional.
Funny thing is that Pac came into the rap game as more of a Sharif type persona (2pacalypse Now). A brotha spittin knowledge, but connected to the streets. I mean the dude started as a dancer for Digital Underground. The hard core/gangsta persona came after Juice. Dude should have took the role, killed it and kept it moving to the next project.
My best movie of all time in the 90s. Hands down and Eith played the hell out of that role. Epic. I'm glad I got to live and see the 90s. Their was nothing like the 90s. Facts. Rest Up 🐐. Yes Sirrr 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
This is an old story. Eiht been told it. But, it was a good thing it went down like that. The movie is a classic that saved a lot of boring days before the internet.
Heavy Gratitude for sharing. Ps I didnt know Pac looked out for the Hughes Brothers. Pps Dead Presidents is one the best movies, ever. Ppps Pac did a great job in Gridlock 'd.
And to see your humbleness now bro i love that, you still that nigga bro but not on that bullshit, love you man, u was my hero back then and hearing and seeing you come up, is great legend
Shariff was a ex knucklehead turned Muslim, he was so happy to be learning something he like, he kept coming at us with it, he thought ali could save black people, Yeah Rite! That would of been pac explained right there!
That's the mentality that got Pac killed. Shariff's character did get explained in the scene at the party when he was trying to stop Kane from getting a beer. Pac, God rest his soul, wasn't a street dude like his records suggested he was. He wanted to rep that life too hard and it brought him in contact with dudes who were REALLY about that life and it cost him his life. He was too brilliant for that.
He shot two white guys, who turned out to be cops, who were abusing a black person! That’s more gangsta than ANYTHING the real so called gangstas do!!!😊
The role of Shareef in this movie was straight up stoopid cause ain't nobody in any hood could hang with any of the other characters without putting in some type of work.
And it worked out for the best cause it was better with the lesser known actors cause it looked more believable with them pac would have commanded the film so him not being in it it let it breath more easier
Was it that the Hughes brothers GENUINELY didn't want 2pac in the movie and they were trying to hang on to that check or did something BEFORE MENACE between 2pac and the Hughes brothers?
They didn't want him in their movie 🍿🎥 So they fixed it to where he would react that way The whole reason they got the green light was because of Tupac The whole reason they got their name was because of Tupac They did one of Tupacs music videos Regardless if it was something that happened before the movie came about Tupac put them on So why not return the favor?? They definitely snaked 🐍 Pac But in the end they got their issue
Because that character wasn't really in the movie too much and also Tupac felt there wasn't enough reasoning to why that character changed into the positive guy
The problem was Tupac found out he was kicked from the movie when he read about it in the newspaper, they didnt even tell him to his face. Those guys were cowards and snakes.
Yeah but Pac was a thug, if they told Pac to his Face that he was getting the Timberland boot, Pac would have probably beat the light skin off of them. The Hughes Bros aint about that life, so they wanted to avoid a physical confrontation.
That don't mean you go beating people up only in the hip hop world does that make perfect sense. That just means there's no Business Like show Business. That's how it is I don't know why when it comes to black people they think that things should be different. It's Hollywood shut up. Tupac is dead for a good reason.
@@onajiranac7237 you just said they were cowards and snakes because they kicked Tupac from the movie but didn't tell him to his face. Why do you feel like it should be handled differently because it was Tupac or black actor? When this happens in white Hollywood all day everyday. Once again Hollywood is Hollywood show Business show Business but at the end of the day Tupac had no right to be put in his hands on anybody and needed to calm his goofy ass down. Hence why he's no longer here.
@@tristinhall1275 I commented their actions not actions of Tupac. I said the problem in this incident was how they handled it and it was very poorly. Since Tupac put them on the scene by letting them direct videos for his songs they could atleast tell him he is off the movie directly, I think he deserved that atleast. I never mentioned nor defended Tupac's actions after they kicked him off.
So they hired him for the film for his name clout? But also didn't really want him in the same film. So underhandedly got him fired because they didn't wanna work with him....he got pissed off? Sounds about right
If only Eiht was consistent about his beef with Quik. He told so many different stories about how that beef originated… everything to that they were rivals to it being a misunderstanding over lyrics. 😆
@@erickennedy3322 bruh it ain’t that sensitive… I’m from South Central L.A. Bangers have no problems expressing themselves believe me. Gang members don’t go around talking bout it’s a sensitive subject… 😆
@@erickennedy3322 yes I know but why would it be a sensitive subject for him? It’s not like anyone died in their beef. Eiht wasn’t even really out there banging in the streets. 🤷🏿♂️
Imagine if Pac played Sharif, That could have been epic!! Pac is very influential dude, the impact would've been very serious cuz Of his following!! We would have appreciated his role, which consequently would have changed the way people viewed him & his work... B. Taylor
At the end of the day......a huge opportunity was missed. PAC's trajectory could have gone galactic if he just played the damn role. Sharif wasn't a lame character, his character just wàsnt supposed to be a livewire. Everyone in the movie can't be o dogg. Play the role you're given....or not. But don't be in your feelings about it
I doubt it. Tupac was probably the reason the movie got financed in the first place. Tupac was already a huge name in the industry. That role would've probably damaged his image. Sharif role was lame af. Tupac was already building the gangster rapper image, Sadly getting shot and surviving was better for his career trajectory than any movie role.

@@leodjoneluv no it wasn’t. Cuz they ain’t show any of that. All the movie did was glorify killing 😂😂😂 nobody gaf abt anything else in that movie. With jada pinkett and Caine little storyline being cared for a little

@@babyjesus1056 mmm idk you gotta watch the movie like really watch it instead of just looking at it you know and I mean no disrespect but the film literally has a message each storyline even jada and Cain
@@melvinmorgan4847 nah bro. Boyz in the hood is by far more complete in every aspect. Menace is only looked as cool due to the killing and glorifying the gangster life. Nobody gives a fuck about anything else in that movie like I said earlier. Every movie has messages.
The actor that played Sharif's father (Sharif) explained in the movie the process of how Sharif changed ...."You know Sharif use to get into all types of @#$%...if Allah can make a better man than Jesus can..." I don't think the issue with 2Pac was about the character. I think he wanted more screen time and he wanted to Hughes brother to shed more detail in the script which would be beneficial to his acting career because he would be more visible in the film. After being one of the main guys in Juice, he didn't want to take a smaller role.
The Hughes brothers could’ve added that part after 2pac made such a big deal
@@Bless_301 the could have but they probably didn't want to work with him. 2Pac has one of those bigger than life personalities. It's either you love it or hate it. I think that hated it but tried to ride it out because of the studio executives
@@Jumpaz416 facts
I agree with everything that you said, especially your last sentence.
@@Bless_301 I wouldnt have added nothing for Pac cry?baby ass. He let that juice role go to his head.
This interview is incredible 🔥
Incredible!!!😳? The same interview, topic of discussion was done 10 years ago, by these same 2 neggas!!!😆😆
I think that was a fair request from Tupac. I think the role of the director, is to sit down with the crew,and explain the purpose of the movie, and it's subsequent impact on the society. Moreover, explaining the different roles of characters, and why? Tupac knew all of that so...that's it.
Esp since the Pink elephant in the room was this entire project is being pushed bc of (Tupac’s) presence. They definitely owed him more than a reduced unexplained role
Exactly cause they could have given a quick flash back scene when sherif stayed with Kane cousin. They could have shown a quick flash back scene showing why and then coming back to when wax said fuck that we out
Tupac didn't want to protray a conscious man when he was 21. By 25 he was cool portraying a cop and heroin addict.......
@@zregory wasn’t he around his 20’s when he made Brenda’s got a baby ?
Pac wasn’t established enough to tell the Hughes Boys what to do.
I think Pac was conscious of his reach and career path at that time. His plan to reach the ghettos was already in swing. We saw Pac go from heartfelt 'Keep Your Head Up' to later switching it up to the gangster street shit. In that moment, it was important to him for the movie to reflect the narrative he was trying to put out.
Art of dialogue is winnin! ... you listenin bruh. I been here studying as well. Thank you for real
Dope work family 🙏🏽
Whats funny is that hes saying what pac was trying to say in his rap "only a few love me" which is soo true everyone wanted to just bank off of pac but didnt wanna deal with the brains behind the money maker.
That's called a snake 🐍 and using folks
A person that acts like that
Will never prosper
In the end they get got
Just like Kanye West
been waiting for Eights insight... thank you Art!
Pac would killed that role!! Classic movie!
Definitely would've It would have shown his range opening up way more doors
@@shawny6178 for sure!
He wasn't in the movie a lot though
Him and the dad character (Charles S. Dutton) would have had some powerful scenes together
@@shawny6178 he knew he. Was being. Played and used. They prolly just added sharif in the script cause they needed pac in the movie. Pac also didn’t understand playing a Muslim gangbanger, according to napoleon, cause he said that doesn’t exist
I’m not calling him a liar but I don’t think I believe that’s the reason he was upset. He pretty much played a guy on the straight and narrow in Poetic Justice.
Totally different type of movie ma’am, Poetic Justice wasn’t no shoot ‘em up, bang, bang movie!
I can believe it because of the type of movie it was. It would make him look like a square/sucka. As a young Alpha male your reputation/image is everything to you.
he built up to that... pac on menace sheshhh
8 said the same thing years ago on Vlad or This is 50 or something. I believe him.
Pac knew the only reason why production was giving the Hughes brother the money to do the movie was a condition of 2 pac had to play in the movie because of his popularity at the time the big wigs felt they would capitalize off him.
I dont think Pac did that cause he wanted to play the gangsta role ..from juice to poetic justice …it was totally diferent character …when he ask why the character turn this way i think for him he needed that to feed into the role my P.O.V
Y’all stop bringing up Poetic Justice, do u dumb niggaz realize that was a totally different type of movie. It wasn’t no shoot ‘em up, bang, bang type of film, so of course Pac was fine with that role! Smdh!
Bro y’all crack me up first hand view first your opinion 😂😂😂😂😂
Tupac as O Dog would've been crazy.
Larenz Tate did a pretty good job
many don't know but Spice was supposed to play O-Dog but he refused
@@SharkVshore not that spice refused. Spice don't know how to act..
TRUDAT. But Larenz Tate, god damn. He played the shit outta that role. & u know it. But the Hughes brothers should’ve had a meeting with pac before the movie was even written don’t you think?
This would have made Pac a more versatile actor.
It's good to switch it up.
i.e. Denzel in Training Day.
Offering that small role to Pac was an insult. They used his involvement as a way to get the movie financed and you offer him that role.
That was some lame shit
Too short had a smaller role n Eiht had a small role, so why pac couldn't take the role?
@@michaelswearingen4596 Pac had a wayyy larger ego than eiht n 2 short...
@@jay07261986 exactly, based on what With said, that's probably why they gave him a small role
@@jay07261986 lol or Pac was proven to be a boxoffice success as a main character already...... this was eiht and shorts first movie. big rappers but at the time unproven actors.
The Hughes Brothers must be stopped… Their legacy has been defiled as Pac haters and nothing more for all times!
The Hughes Brothers also did Dead Presidents and Book Of Eli. Great films. Some people just don’t get along. I can’t takes sides in beef with people I don’t know.
Name another movie that they ever done don't worry I'll wait......😏
@@twocents6951 okay since you name movies they've done first of all Dead Presidents didn't make no sense because why didn't do just Rob the pimp instead of the bank didn't make no sense, now book of Eli speaks for itself Denzel carried that movie CGI was the supporting cast😏
@@ruthwayne8320 they made “From Hell” with Johnny Depp. Very good movie
So pac talks all thus Rightouess shit do the right thing when he was alive talking black empowerment yet he doesn't wanna play the straight and narrow character typical egotistical human that's why he died because his ego got the best of him typical famous person expects everything to go his way
Pac was also supposed to act in Higher Learning.
Baby boy script was made for him, and I believe he was casted for idenpendnt day
Pac was supposed to play Mace Windu too.
@@asadadon yeah and Simon Phoenix
Tupac was supposed to be in rush hour instead of Chris Tucker 🤣🤣
@@mbreland25 Yeah those are facts also!
Pac is my favorite rapper. Hands down but Menace is still a classic without Pac.
I'm late when it comes to MC 8 interviews on this channel. Being from LA myself, & how he paints a picture thru his articulation, is awesome, & accurate. I'm gonna look for more of his interviews. 👌🏽
Can you even imagine how even more successful that would've been to have 2Pac in Menace ll Society
It would have only been better if Tupac played Kane, O-Dog was brilliant played by Larenze Tate
@Sly Boogy 😂 and agreed
@@chrisdillon2839 yup
I like the idea of Pac being in that movie woulda been epic but now it makes me like him more that he wouldn’t tolerate the slight..he was smart enuff to know how that would have tainted his rap career..
@@paymyself1st430 Tupac's rap career tainted him. Had he played Sharif, he woulda killed it. All of the actors played their roles as planned. The Hughes Brothers are brilliant for that. They touched on several important issues in that movie. 🤎🤎🤎
ONE OF MY FAVORITE CHANNEL THE 2PAC STORY BE GOOD💪🔥
I don't think the Sharif character would've been a stretch for Pac. He could've went into his aggressive _conscious mode_ - the one we've seen in many interviews when he is speaking about the Black experience. Then, he could've came out with a whole separate movie detailing how Sharif came up. There could've been _many_ branches leading up to the original movie or branching out from it.
Pac had pull like that.
Like how you put it but nah they had intentions for pac
according to a couple people the original reason they got they movie deal was on the strength of saying Pac was gonna be in the movie. they didn't really want him there they just felt like they needed him at the time from my point of view. but once they got the ball rolling the exed him out the picture, you know the story after that lol
Pac started his career as the conscious cat so why was it a problem for him playing the role of Shareef?
That's what I said. This role would not have been a big stretch for him. He could have went back to his "White manz world" days. Which is one of his better songs. I believe he would have done great as Sharif.
Actors gotta play different roles. That’s called showing range. I don’t understand why Pac had a problem playing a righteous dude
Understandable. Great video.
Tupac had a good point in explaining the Sharif Character.
Vonte Sweet killed the Sharriff role,
Perfect film, greatest Hood film ever
Juice was better
@@sleepydank8330 it wasn’t
@@klutchet23 it was cos pac was in it
Paid in full?
@@lexbogie1 in too deep
this is tha most thorough you've explained Pac's roll, @McEiht ... 👏🏿
Pac could of taken that role added layers to his character, and killed it. He was young though, so I understand.
Great pov
Pac should have used his own imagination to create a background on Sharif then make that role stand out.
That's what great actors do
He wanted to do that, but they refused to expand the role.
THATS WHAT HE WAS TRYNA DO!
That's what he was doing Duh
@@JJEHUTYY He was too busy being reckless
If PAC woulda just did the role and brought a his own charm we would be sitting here talking about his diverse acting range when we speak on his legacy….kinda a shame it didn’t happen
I definitely agree with this assessment.
This makes me think about Denzel Washington. For most of his acting career, he portrayed a clean, straight and narrow, good-guy image -- but when he dropped Training Day, it was notably different from the roles I was used to seeing. But he played the role so well that it made me like him even more. He played his character so well that I didn't even want him to die (even though, he deserved it). It simply added to his legacy of his entertainment value and versatility. Now, I find myself thinking that Training Day might be my favorite movie featuring him (even though, he made many other great films).
His diverse activities b rang was seen in poetic justice much better movie he played a honourable man
@@sleepydank8330 understood. But in a movie like Menace II Society, he could have possibly made an even greater impact because many of the main characters portrayed themselves as violent, misguided, and didn't gaf -- Pac could have been the guy who brought sanity, a sense of direction, and morality to the situation and with his charisma that he could have injected into his role, he could have possibly endeared a lot more observers.
I understand that Pac wanted to add a backstory to his potential character, but I also think he was being difficult to work with.
While I agree that he demonstrated a relatively "good guy" imagine in Poetic Justice, I think that he could have had a greater impact in Menace II Society.
Only thing is shareef role wasn’t a lot of screen time he didn’t have many lines that’s the thing that’s all but I feel you . Understand pac would have took the role of shareef was in the film more . PAC not taking the role was more impactful than the shareef role. He killed poetic justice, above the rim ,bullet ,gridlock, gang related, and of course juice role and cameo in movie nothing but trouble with digital underground
@@suave_d yes but pac questioned the fact that the character of shiereef was a Muslim, who was hanging out with gangsters who had guns and smoked, sold drugs drank ect ect, pac understood a real Muslim wouldn’t be within those environments and that’s Muslim gangster didn’t exist, he played and potrayed an authentic hard working young man looking after in poetic justice, he didn’t need to portray this in menace the character can be seen as being contradictory for his hanging out with non Muslim gangsters .
Maybe the Hughes Brothers had a different vision with Pac...his last name Shakur holds a lot of weight. He could have flipped that, and made it work for him. the best actors have a wide range of roles they play. Maybe if Pac killed that role, it would have been another one under his belt. Just a 🤔💭
His last name is crooks.
music.th-cam.com/video/Z9C0Fm3Eeik/w-d-xo.html&feature=share
I bet Pac really wanted the role of Caine just so he could have that love scene with Jada 🤣
SALUTE 8👑💙✊🏾🎤💯R.I.P. 2PAC 4LIFE👑🌹🙏👼💙✊🏾🎤💯
That Shariff role was wack as hell, can`t blame Pac for turning it down.The guy that played Shariff never became a star because he never got a role that would elevate his acting career. But at the same time Pac should have just walked out and just charge it to the game, assaulting one of Hughes brothers was uncalled for.
That’s on the actor bro
You don't have to become a STAR when you are Born one....Vonte Sweet was Hot in Hollywood way before any of em...do ya research lol. Mofo
The bruh who played Sharif, is Vonte Sweet! He "rolled" in several movies, Traffic,The walking dead, predator,and an Oprah Winfrey joint
I think Larenz Tate in that movie to me was the best character role he ever played for me. I think that pac wanted that role a little bit more than Larenz. I would’ve been good with either of them playing Kane’s best friend. The Hughes brothers could’ve did something creative with the hottest act in that time period. So they dropped the ball on that one.
Big up to these interviews. A day doesn’t go by that Straight up Menace doesn’t play on my iPod when I’m driving to and from work. But… Ya man uses air quotes “a lot”.
The huge brothers knew what they where doing tryna play 2pac out to be the square when they knew he was doing the gangsta roles making a character that made no sense fing lames that's why 2pac handled them plus pac played the roles beyond gangsta in other movies he was amazing in so that did none to his career but made him bigger.
Ft
He would have played the square if it was a leading role. The problem is he didn’t want a small role in the film like Eiht had.
Yo..he funny!🤣, while keeping it gangsta!!💪💪 Love you bro❤❤💯
Tupac wanted to play the Leading actor.
Yes pac really wanted to play odog lol but larenz literally embodied odog. Pac would have been good as sharif too , the dear mama/ Brenda got a baby Pac, not the to live and die in LA death row Pac. I love how 8 explain it. He’s still so hard in his Compton dialect. Rip Pac!
Listening to Eight connects with me coming from Miami. He real with it. #ZOE

He added personally. Different question.

The guy who played Sharif, Also played the gangster from BoyzInTheHood, who said "hey man give them lil niggas they ball back". 💪🏾
Wrong dude, my man. The guy who played Sharif is the same burnt shaved bird lookin’ nigga that convinced Ricky to throw him the football. He also punched Dough Boy in his fat belly when DB tried to take it back. That big nigga wearing the durag told ‘shaved bird’ to “…give tha ‘lil nigga his ball back.”.
Sharif part really was just the square. If they woulda made sharif character more personable pac wouldn’t have had a problem with it.
Sharif's father played by Charles S. Dutton, revealed some of Sharif's back story during the school meeting scene.
@@HeavyMental1000 he really gave no details of anything that happened in his life. It was literally one sentence. They should have actually shown us a flash back or something.
@@JayBelafonte Why do all that for a side character? Sharif actually got more back story than O-Dog who has about 90% more screen time. And what about the A-Wax? The audience is smart enough to understand the crux of the character without an unnecessary flashback. This was more about Tupac's ego. He was Tupac for god's sake. He could have just turned the part down and jumped on a different movie if he wanted to.
@@HeavyMental1000 I Agree
@@HeavyMental1000 that’s the entire point why Pac was not a fit for that role. Although having background on some of them would have expanded the movie the same way as “Boyz in the Hood”. That way when they died it would have been more emotional.
Funny thing is that Pac came into the rap game as more of a Sharif type persona (2pacalypse Now). A brotha spittin knowledge, but connected to the streets. I mean the dude started as a dancer for Digital Underground. The hard core/gangsta persona came after Juice. Dude should have took the role, killed it and kept it moving to the next project.
Shut up
I hope you ask him bout the DJ Quik beef
I don’t understand how you go from Bishop to Shareef 😂wtf
It's called range.
Nice interview
My best movie of all time in the 90s. Hands down and Eith played the hell out of that role. Epic. I'm glad I got to live and see the 90s. Their was nothing like the 90s. Facts. Rest Up 🐐. Yes Sirrr 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

This is an old story. Eiht been told it. But, it was a good thing it went down like that. The movie is a classic that saved a lot of boring days before the internet.

Da real Awaxx in da building salute tho OG
Hughes bros some busters, I’m glad PAC flashed on them.
Shariff was a ex knucklehead turned Muslim, he was so happy to be learning something he like, he kept coming at us with it, he thought ali could save black people, Yeah Rite! That would of been pac explained right there!
That's the mentality that got Pac killed. Shariff's character did get explained in the scene at the party when he was trying to stop Kane from getting a beer. Pac, God rest his soul, wasn't a street dude like his records suggested he was. He wanted to rep that life too hard and it brought him in contact with dudes who were REALLY about that life and it cost him his life. He was too brilliant for that.
This is the realist comment in this whole thread 💯
He shot two white guys, who turned out to be cops, who were abusing a black person! That’s more gangsta than ANYTHING the real so called gangstas do!!!😊
100%
Most rappers don't live the life they rap about... It's just entertainment, just like Dre said.
@@BIGGDUDE42 That’s true 💯. And everything we speak has a consequence, good or bad.
I’m surprised Pac even showed up for the table read since he had already been sent the script.
Tupac played a post office boy and he was happy with that
Cuz Janet Jackson bro..that was only reason he took the role.lol
The role of Shareef in this movie was straight up stoopid cause ain't nobody in any hood could hang with any of the other characters without putting in some type of work.
I think the Hughes Bros didn't want Pac to get credit for the success of that film.
And it worked out for the best cause it was better with the lesser known actors cause it looked more believable with them pac would have commanded the film so him not being in it it let it breath more easier
Im pretty sure only dummies like you think like THAT
Great commentary
Was it that the Hughes brothers GENUINELY didn't want 2pac in the movie and they were trying to hang on to that check or did something BEFORE MENACE between 2pac and the Hughes brothers?
They didn't want him in their movie 🍿🎥
So they fixed it to where he would react that way
The whole reason they got the green light was because of Tupac
The whole reason they got their name was because of Tupac
They did one of Tupacs music videos
Regardless if it was something that happened before the movie came about
Tupac put them on
So why not return the favor??
They definitely snaked 🐍 Pac
But in the end they got their issue
Eight is a straight shooter. Salute
Pac wanted to play a thug I’m surprised that someone that grew up on panther knowledge wouldn’t want to play the positive black male character
Because that character wasn't really in the movie too much and also Tupac felt there wasn't enough reasoning to why that character changed into the positive guy
As many times as I’ve heard about how dis went dwn, I nvr had anyone break it dwn from an artistic perspective. And it makes perfect sense
The problem was Tupac found out he was kicked from the movie when he read about it in the newspaper, they didnt even tell him to his face. Those guys were cowards and snakes.
Yeah but Pac was a thug, if they told Pac to his Face that he was getting the Timberland boot, Pac would have probably beat the light skin off of them. The Hughes Bros aint about that life, so they wanted to avoid a physical confrontation.
That don't mean you go beating people up only in the hip hop world does that make perfect sense. That just means there's no Business Like show Business. That's how it is I don't know why when it comes to black people they think that things should be different. It's Hollywood shut up. Tupac is dead for a good reason.
@@tristinhall1275 I didnt say anything about that though
@@onajiranac7237 you just said they were cowards and snakes because they kicked Tupac from the movie but didn't tell him to his face.

Once again Hollywood is Hollywood show Business show Business but at the end of the day Tupac had no right to be put in his hands on anybody and needed to calm his goofy ass down. Hence why he's no longer here.
@@tristinhall1275 I commented their actions not actions of Tupac. I said the problem in this incident was how they handled it and it was very poorly.
Since Tupac put them on the scene by letting them direct videos for his songs they could atleast tell him he is off the movie directly, I think he deserved that atleast. I never mentioned nor defended Tupac's actions after they kicked him off.
I wish MC Eiht did Kev Mac videos.
So they hired him for the film for his name clout? But also didn't really want him in the same film. So underhandedly got him fired because they didn't wanna work with him....he got pissed off?
Sounds about right
Eiht explained that last part very well, good perspective of how Pac might have felt
Have agree with Pac on this one. Eight also been consent about this sistution over the years.

Awax Put some links with those grits lol
Of course I'll take his word he was there and also a cast member and on top of that genuine with his delivery of it
At the end of the day......a huge opportunity was missed. PAC's trajectory could have gone galactic if he just played the damn role. Sharif wasn't a lame character, his character just wàsnt supposed to be a livewire. Everyone in the movie can't be o dogg. Play the role you're given....or not. But don't be in your feelings about it
I doubt it. Tupac was probably the reason the movie got financed in the first place. Tupac was already a huge name in the industry. That role would've probably damaged his image. Sharif role was lame af. Tupac was already building the gangster rapper image, Sadly getting shot and surviving was better for his career trajectory than any movie role.
