Somebody:🗣️ Art: Yeah that's crazy man, but tell me bout the time u....Yeah that's wild Yo, but tell me bout the time u... Yeah that's true, but tell me bout the time ...
You MJ fans are so insecure it’s not even funny. Anytime Princes name is brought up there’s at least one or two of you in the comment. Prince did that becuz he didn’t want record labels to own his music that’s why. MJ was buddy buddy with record labels. Study before you comment. Alicia keys said this, dmx, Nas. They all talk about why Prince did those things. Prince used to teach them how artists were getting robbed. Big difference between MJ who was obsessed with fame.
@@vonillah7454 Yep, same Human Nature Sample. Until Kanye came with the PYT sample on Good Life. I can't think of anyone else that was able to sample M.J when he was alive.
Prince was known for not liking other artists sampling or covering his music (Despite allowing artists he liked/were cool with like TLC & Mariah Carey to do covers of his songs)--I first learned of this when Ginuwine mentioned it in an interview from the late '90s (He did a cover of 'When Doves Cry' on his first album). On a related note, The Game wanted to collaborate with Prince for one of his (Game's) albums, but Prince turned it down due to the profanity in the song.
Prince hand that swag and it was amazing but I preferred Michael Jackson over Prince, them two were good rivals a respected each other unlike what happened with Biggie. Props to Ed lover, the south got luv!
There's always one MJ nerd bringing up MJ in the comments when talking about Prince. MJ fans are so insecure dude lol i def prefer Prince over MJ but i like MJ too but Prince is untouchable
Glad you put that out there cause nobody wants to say it. King Tee was my favorite MC!! Tash even said it in an interview 10 yrs ago about Biggie being influenced by King Tee.
This Time Around with Michael Jackson & Biggie was one of the best collabs ever. Most of my generation don’t even know it exists smh. Imagine if Pac & Prince would’ve did a song like that
You can tell u know nothing about Prince it wouldn’t have been anything like that. Prince created hip hop music too. Go listen to Prince rap, songs like “Gett off” “days of wild” it would’ve been more like that not pop like MJ. They would’ve done something totally different.
Prince was serious about people using or sampling his music. I’m surprised Pastor Troy never got sued for using Prince’s song I Wanna Be Your Lover and Do Me Baby. I love PT song Then I Got Change to hear him rap on a Prince song was dope. I know Prince didn’t want Nas to use one of his songs because Nas didn’t own his publishing.
@@tonysnow2224 it was probably because pac cussed a lot in his raps and that “wannabe a baller” songs didn’t really have a lot of cuss words in it..but u right I seen a Lil Troy interview and he said Prince let him sample it for da free..

@@champchamberlain That's still a form of sampling that requires permission. To live and die actually if you listen closely the actual Master Comp is directly in there.

It’s funny how these stories take on a life of their own. Coolio who is friends with King Tee and got multiple songs together did an interview where he said Pac and his squad have King Tee an epic beat down, then again maybe they had more than one altercation.
Prince said in an interview when he was asked about sampling as soon as you start cussing that he already has his fingers in his ears and said he doesn’t want his music to be used like that.
Thats interesting considering he has spent time talking game with DMX and Nas- and Havoc tells a story that he is convinced Prince changed the arrangement on one of his beats- they happened to be in the same studio- I think in Miami ( i could be wrong about the location)
Yes check the Prince Chris Rock interview. He said Rappers went thru James Browns music. Then they went thru George Clinton’s and now they’re trying to go thru his. He said some of these acts he really digs but as soon as he hears “bitch this, and 40 oz that” he’s already like this and puts his fingers in his ears. I think Prince was such a creative that he just didn’t respect the art of sampling too much.
@@silvercat6425 if you know anything about gang politics then Tupac wasn’t supposed to be wearing no blue rag out of his pocket and that’s a fact. I knew dudes who went to LA from New York who got stepped to for wearing blue or red so you stop reaching. Do some research instead of trying to call people out.
Maybe so, but you can't tell a muthafucka what to wear. Even if he had a black or white rag why king tee worried about it? Whether here in L.A. or anywhere ppl do wear rags at their own discretion tho. Gotta be careful He wouldn't have said that shit to anybody else drunk or not

Pac had been in Cali since '87.He was known to rock blue & red bandanas because he was neutral.King Tee was just being a pissy drunk loud mouth who should've minded his own business.From what I hear, he caught a serious beat down for it.
Tee's a Compton OG that was drunk and being belligerent. He knew damn well it was a naive fashion faux pas by a NY "tourist" and wanted to mess with Pac
@@jaysoncore8852 Absolutely correct! It’s sad how people don’t know and speaking on nothing! Prince was a musical genius. You cannot compare Prince and Michael
Yall love running with this narrative, pac never claimed to be a gangster lmao, he even said himself that he was not a gangster or never wanted his music to be labeled gangster rap, in fact he HATED that label. Yall think just because someone is loud, stand up for himself and stand on business that mean he trying to be a gangster lol, yall love spouting this BS just because of the way he died, so it's easy to run with this narrative, pac was just a dude with balls and always stood up for himself, he had that black panther spirit, he was not trying to be gangtser. Yall need to stop this BS
I remember Snoop Dogg telling that King T and 2Pac altercation story in the Vibe magazine in '98. When I finally heard 'That's Drama' off the 'Thy Kingdom Come' album, it's definitely subliminals aimed at 'Pac.
King Tee was right, 2pac cosplayed as a Gangsta. While raised by Panthers and growing up around Gang members, pimps, and hustlers; 2pac was a theater kid writing poetry, acting, and doing ballet. In his own words "I never had a record (criminal) until I made a record (album)."
I loved Glam Slam. The club was purple inside and naked greek statues of women everywhere. It looked like how you would think it looked.... decorated by Prince. Lol
You had me trippin' for a minute Ed, 'cause I clearly remember going to 'Glam Slam' in Downtown Minneapolis on 5th Street. The one in L.A. was the third 'Glam Slam' club...
Yeah, it's so bizarre that a dude formerly named "M.C. New York", who grew up in Baltimore, and who didn't even live in California for a decade was screaming "Westside" everywhere towards the end of his life and was killed over his affiliations with California gangs he did not grow up a part of.
@@Iamfictionary Ice T grew up in LA, moved when he was 12. he went to Crenshaw High, hung out with Rollin 60s, Kurupt moved when he was like 17. Pac moved to LA as a grown up. It is a whole nother story. Bad argument bro
i completely understand prince' s perspective. i remember when he changed his name to a symbol back in the late 90s cuz the labels was tryin to own his name in perpetuity.
It’s crazy the more stories you hear about Tupac it seemed like he was trying to beef and fight with everybody, so it’s really not surprising how things ended unfortunately
When I listen to the story Tupac was minding his own business and King T under the influence of alcohol came to pick on him. Everyone will have their own idea about who provoked who.
So basically fighting equals = death. America was built on fighting and taking shit. Only dudes who fight gets slandered and dudes who shoot and kill their own are hero’s 😳
You pac haters dont even listen ;lmao, pac was minding his own bussniss, king tee came up to pac and started talking crazy. What pac meant to do? Stay quiet like a bitch?
I bumped into 2Pac at Glam Slam, literally and the dancer homie checked him about walking around in there trying to act hard, then started pop locking when 2Pac tried to shake his hand. The Promoter was Alim Babba, he asked me and the homies to be on the look out if anybody started tripping in the club. I still remember exactly what the dancer homie said when he checked Pac about him not being from LA or understanding the Banging Culture of the time.
Hammer sampled ‘When Doves Cry’. So maybe he thought Hammers’ positive message about praying was worth the permission of it, and thought Tupac would make some kind of negative message from the sample.
2pac wasn't no gangbanger. He was claiming Mob Piru & that wasnt his world. King Tee was right to chack him about it & Richie Rich spoke about this to.
Pac never claimed both gangs lmao, he was just affiliated with them that is all. Yall need to cut it out with the whole "pac was trying to be a gangbanger" narrative. On what song did he claim crip or piru.
Pac never gang banged or claimed mob ! He just fucked with them heavy ! They accepted him ! Pac use to hang with the crips as well and they fucked with pac ! Pac never claimed crip !
If you were not an artist in control of your music , royalties and masters Prince wasnt going to allow you to sample his music so that the Corporation couldnt have ownership of his art again
Flat -out LIE!! One of Pac's last hits was 'To Live and Die in LA' . The exact song that is sampled is Prince's 'Do Me Baby'. GO BACK AND LISTEN TO IT. I'm not calling Ed a LIAR. Maybe Prince changed his mind a couple years later when Pac moved to the WC, but he's CLEARLY sampling Prince, and he was NEVER sued over it!🙄
Legacy, and also Prince didn't want for these white executives to profit from work he produced. He refused to work with people unless they had their masters
Maybe Prince was paranoid cos if anyone can remember he was getting fckud outta his royalties and had contract issues with his record label (if anyone can remember that time he came on TV and broke the mafianess of the music industry down, hence why he changed his name to THE ARTIST FORMERLY KNOWN AS PRINICE TAFKAP). Woulda been good tho.. Prince n Pac?! Dang! (Notwithstanding Whats Ya Phone #? Cos that was a sample also but i mean a ACTUAL COLLAB)
Prince's first inclination is to say 'no' but that's his way of nudging you to find another way to get the sample. there's always a lesson in his mercurial way of dealing with you - especially if he respected and liked you.
Pac was a naturally born leader. He didn't act like he was in a gang. He confronted anyone if he felt he was in the right no matter if he was by himself or with his people
That’s because all the artists pac signed were crips. All of thuglife were crips. When he went to death row he left thuglife alone, because he was rolling with Suge hence no more blue bandanas only red ones. Notice the only ones slick talk down on PAC are crips, except Daz.
@@WestsideClevelandPac was known to rock red & blue bandanas back then.He was neutral.Plus that was around the time of the truce.Which Pac was in support of.I believe he even gave a couple of free concerts to help promote it.
King t was the biggest alcoholic ever. I recall ice t telling stories about him... The guy would get pissed drunk before the show and couldn't perform. Ice-T would have to help him upstairs to his room and rock the shows on his own.
Like I say u prolly wasn't even around in that time I was and pac been bout that life even if he got beat up he had heart .Krip Mac do it and kant even fight and y'all gurgling like Krazy over dude
People in the comments so ignorant and slow. Tupac and Ed Lover stopped being cool in 1993. So Ed Lover is only saying Prince turned him down in 1993. We all know Prince eventually let him sample his music years later.
Big daddy Kane sampled “POP LIFE” for his song “THE LOVER IN YOU” but they were label mates ( Warner Brothers) plus Warner owned that song , it was on their label .
How the fuc is a culture vulture he comes from a revolutionary background and grew up in New York and LA in the streets you gonna be wild male or female. And if anybody don’t know it we in LA are renegades we don’t give a shit what ppl think 💯
King Tee got knocked out that’s what Ed Lover didn’t mention. That’s when calls were made and King Tee found out Pac was really plugged in so he didn’t check nothing goofy 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@saucejames2349 King Tee got snuck by a coward, Pac didn't hit him or beat hom down had to have help for a drunk solo King Tee huh? And where did Tee lie? Pac wasn't a Crip. You cult members delusion for your false idol makes you the real goofy...Goofy! F o h you not frm the Chi lol 😂
Funny how all the people in the comments saying "this is cap" none of us were there! 😂😂. You don't know if its cap or not. Just enjoy the stories and relax 😂😂😂
I can see Pac doing that the way people say he talked he talked " fast and quick " like... " A bro let me sample that bro " like real fast not even thinking about it lol
@BM_718 Did you not hear Ed Lover he said himself that King Tee being drunk started basically tripping on Tupac over him having a blue rag so Pac stood up for himself. It wasn't about Pac trying to be gangster it was simply about him setting King Tee straight.
Prince wasn’t letting rappers sample him because he knew it was the record labels that would benefit and Prince was totally against that.

Pac sampled prince on to live and die in LA, Ed lover talking our of his ass as usual
Baby boomers were lucky to have experienced Prince
Gen X, not boomers.
Art Of Dialogue dropping all gems 💎
Prince let Big Daddy Kane sample his music but it could have been they were both on Warner Bros.
Kane was also dropping verses on a unreleased version of Batdance
That's right ⏭
Prince let Nice & Smooth sample I Wanna Be Your Lover for a song they did called The Sky's The Limit.
I loved Pac, but Pac wasn't no gangster. He may have wanted to be, but he wasn't.
He'd still smack the fuck out of you though
He was harder than a gangster, gangsters are cowards shooting each other, pac shot 2 cops, gangsters aint doing that
PAC didn’t have to be gangster. He was just a dude that didn’t take sh** from nobody.
Yall love running with this narrative, pac never claimed to be a gangster lmao, he even said himself that he was not a gangster or never wanted his music to be labeled gangster rap, in fact he HATED that label. Yall think just because someone is loud, stand up for himself and stand on business that mean he trying to be a gangster lol, yall love spouting this BS just because of the way he died, so it's easy to run with this narrative, pac was just a dude with balls and always stood up for himself, he had that black panther spirit, he was not trying to be gangtser. Yall need to stop this BS
Simple naggas think like u
Ed lover needs his own podcast
He has one, it’s flopping
He does
Facts
Cmon son
His podcast is called, C'mon Son.
Ed Lover the best story teller
I remember Snoop Dogg telling that King T and 2Pac altercation story in the Vibe magazine in '98. When I finally heard 'That's Drama' off the 'Thy Kingdom Come' album, it's definitely subliminals aimed at 'Pac.
King Tee was right, 2pac cosplayed as a Gangsta. While raised by Panthers and growing up around Gang members, pimps, and hustlers; 2pac was a theater kid writing poetry, acting, and doing ballet. In his own words "I never had a record (criminal) until I made a record (album)."
He started rapping EARLY so i understand what you saying but pac was in the streets...not up for debate
But Tee got his ass whooped so wtf?? 😂😂😂😂
The panthers had gangsters scared.. Know ur history.
That doesn’t mean Pac wasn’t tough. He proved he had heart many times. More than those that criticise him that’s for sure
And king tee was a studio gangsta 😂😂
I loved Glam Slam. The club was purple inside and naked greek statues of women everywhere. It looked like how you would think it looked.... decorated by Prince. Lol
ed waz the one to calm the STORM!!⛈️
Some musicians want to keep their music pure. They want it digested in the way they envisioned and not watered down by sampling. I respect it.
Ed lover is the man..c Mon son"💯 Salute
You had me trippin' for a minute Ed, 'cause I clearly remember going to 'Glam Slam' in Downtown Minneapolis on 5th Street. The one in L.A. was the third 'Glam Slam' club...
Real G calling out the studio gangster
Pretty much.
but didn't "To Live and Die in L.A." by 2pac sample "Do Me Baby" by Prince? it was a huge hit.
Big chick was gone way before Glam Slam, other than that, good story from Ed Lover.
Tupac- can I sample you?
Prince- no.
I miss Prince. Lol.
I heard that "No" in his deep, dry voice and I bet he shrugged after that, lol. I miss that man too.
Pac was mesmerized by LA culture. Cost him his life f’n with Kiwe’s
Yeah, it's so bizarre that a dude formerly named "M.C. New York", who grew up in Baltimore, and who didn't even live in California for a decade was screaming "Westside" everywhere towards the end of his life and was killed over his affiliations with California gangs he did not grow up a part of.
@@peterbadami4872shut up. pac was in cali since a teenager and that became a big part of him
@@peterbadami4872 ice T is from NYC, Kurupt and Xzibit aint from California, but they all rep the West side. What’s ur point then?
LA is for everyone
@@Iamfictionary Ice T grew up in LA, moved when he was 12. he went to Crenshaw High, hung out with Rollin 60s, Kurupt moved when he was like 17. Pac moved to LA as a grown up. It is a whole nother story. Bad argument bro
i completely understand prince' s perspective. i remember when he changed his name to a symbol back in the late 90s cuz the labels was tryin to own his name in perpetuity.
Prince didn't play about his music I don't blame him sampling killed R&B music
He called it too!
It’s crazy the more stories you hear about Tupac it seemed like he was trying to beef and fight with everybody, so it’s really not surprising how things ended unfortunately
When I listen to the story Tupac was minding his own business and King T under the influence of alcohol came to pick on him. Everyone will have their own idea about who provoked who.
So basically fighting equals = death. America was built on fighting and taking shit. Only dudes who fight gets slandered and dudes who shoot and kill their own are hero’s 😳
Did you not listen to the story???
You pac haters dont even listen ;lmao, pac was minding his own bussniss, king tee came up to pac and started talking crazy. What pac meant to do? Stay quiet like a bitch?
I bumped into 2Pac at Glam Slam, literally and the dancer homie checked him about walking around in there trying to act hard, then started pop locking when 2Pac tried to shake his hand. The Promoter was Alim Babba, he asked me and the homies to be on the look out if anybody started tripping in the club. I still remember exactly what the dancer homie said when he checked Pac about him not being from LA or understanding the Banging Culture of the time.
Hammer sampled ‘When Doves Cry’. So maybe he thought Hammers’ positive message about praying was worth the permission of it, and thought Tupac would make some kind of negative message from the sample.
😂😂 pessimistic view some kind negative message
Yeah well ‘Hit ‘em Up’ doesn’t exactly sound like something that promotes positivity.
Warner Bros had to give permission, not Prince..hence the word SLAVE written on his(Prince) face for quite a while
Listen to a song called " Pacs life" og mix. Crazy dope.
U hear him in the beginning tryna justify goin to prince's club??? 😂😂😅😅 iight brah we hear yah
I caught that like a slow punch from a heavyweight 😂
what's wrong with going there
was that a f@g joint
😂😂😂🔥🔥🔥
What’s wrong with going to Prince’s club?
Discuss this with your therapist.
King T told this story. He not lying
He was right
@@donskeezy4042and got dropped he was right lmao
Pac still got his "Do Me Baby" Prince sample for "To Live And Die In La" tho 👀
Pac frontin" like he crip smdh
We appreciate you Ed Lover... You a real brotha who lovez his people
2pac wasn't no gangbanger. He was claiming Mob Piru & that wasnt his world. King Tee was right to chack him about it & Richie Rich spoke about this to.
Troll harder
Pac never claimed both gangs lmao, he was just affiliated with them that is all. Yall need to cut it out with the whole "pac was trying to be a gangbanger" narrative. On what song did he claim crip or piru.
@@illmatic9096 yes he did. Get over it, he tattooed mob on himself & was wearing stuff that symbolized the Mob.
@@illmatic9096 stepping to a known gang member in Vegas shows he was either clueless or believed he was Piru.
Pac never gang banged or claimed mob ! He just fucked with them heavy ! They accepted him ! Pac use to hang with the crips as well and they fucked with pac ! Pac never claimed crip !
If you were not an artist in control of your music , royalties and masters Prince wasnt going to allow you to sample his music so that the Corporation couldnt have ownership of his art again
Flat -out LIE!! One of Pac's last hits was 'To Live and Die in LA' . The exact song that is sampled is Prince's 'Do Me Baby'.
GO BACK AND LISTEN TO IT.
I'm not calling Ed a LIAR. Maybe Prince changed his mind a couple years later when Pac moved to the WC, but he's CLEARLY sampling Prince, and he was NEVER sued over it!🙄
Well Prince was in battle with Warner Brothers over the rights to his early albums, from which Pac took the sample from
He just recalled what was said in the club that night
The original Thugs get lonely too, and the Original Pacs life…he absolutely sampled prince!!!❤️💯
Whatz ya phone # too! This isn’t accurate
@@ronnieboykin6508yep , facts!❤️💯
Pac got away with sampling "Do me baby" on "To Live and die" because Prince didn't own the masters at the time. Warner brothers did.
King T was right
I’ve never understood musicians refusing sampling
For that u have to have art first.
Legacy, and also Prince didn't want for these white executives to profit from work he produced. He refused to work with people unless they had their masters
Maybe Prince was paranoid cos if anyone can remember he was getting fckud outta his royalties and had contract issues with his record label (if anyone can remember that time he came on TV and broke the mafianess of the music industry down, hence why he changed his name to THE ARTIST FORMERLY KNOWN AS PRINICE TAFKAP). Woulda been good tho.. Prince n Pac?! Dang! (Notwithstanding Whats Ya Phone #? Cos that was a sample also but i mean a ACTUAL COLLAB)
Prince didn't want Warner Bros get paid off his name
@@kingrapid🎯💯
Art bout to snag that King T interview
Prince was more of a G than 2Pac‼️‼️‼️‼️😂😂😂
You not like us. Where you from? Canada?
GGGG Gay
I mean Prince never shot two off duty cops for harassing a black person 🤷♂️.
Yall pac haters are weird as hell lmao
@@stephencox8723 I'm telling you n before his deathrow days but nggss said he is a punk smh
Prince's first inclination is to say 'no' but that's his way of nudging you to find another way to get the sample. there's always a lesson in his mercurial way of dealing with you - especially if he respected and liked you.
Tupac ALWAYS acted like he was in a gang. 😂😂...my fave rapper tho!
Pac was a naturally born leader. He didn't act like he was in a gang. He confronted anyone if he felt he was in the right no matter if he was by himself or with his people
That’s because all the artists pac signed were crips.
All of thuglife were crips.
When he went to death row he left thuglife alone, because he was rolling with Suge hence no more blue bandanas only red ones. Notice the only ones slick talk down on PAC are crips, except Daz.
🧢
Take a shot whenever bro says "Glam Slam." Hammered 1 minute in.
Mr MOB had a crip flag
thug life consisted of mostly crips he was with stretch so this was before death row
But he wasn't a crip so why he got a flag? He was just affiliated
@@WestsideClevelandHe wasn’t a blood either
Just affiliated too Suge and the mob
@@WestsideClevelandPac was known to rock red & blue bandanas back then.He was neutral.Plus that was around the time of the truce.Which Pac was in support of.I believe he even gave a couple of free concerts to help promote it.
MC Hammer sampled When Doves Cry for Pray. Big Daddy Kane sampled Pop Life for the original version of The Lover In You.
King t was the biggest alcoholic ever. I recall ice t telling stories about him... The guy would get pissed drunk before the show and couldn't perform. Ice-T would have to help him upstairs to his room and rock the shows on his own.
2pac the Heartz of men prince sample
2Pac being something he really wasn't. They said he was hard headed. SMH
You’re entire profile is Tupac hate
Like I say u prolly wasn't even around in that time I was and pac been bout that life even if he got beat up he had heart .Krip Mac do it and kant even fight and y'all gurgling like Krazy over dude
Why yall always say this lmao, yes we know pac was not a gangster but that dont mean he was a punk or he didnt stand on business.
@illmatic9096 Cuz they're casuals
@TribalCheif-ku4vn Why you mad? You go around saying that on every Pac comment you don't like huh?
To live and die in LA directly samples prince. So i dont understand how this story has relevance.
Pac still sampled his shyte on "Whatz Ya Phone Number"
Tru
I like your interviews but I'm not feeling the word "Fought" cuz it makes it click baity. He said they argued in the parking lot.
People in the comments so ignorant and slow. Tupac and Ed Lover stopped being cool in 1993. So Ed Lover is only saying Prince turned him down in 1993. We all know Prince eventually let him sample his music years later.
Fuck The World was recorded in 94….
Idiot
To live and die in La had prince beat do me baby
@@fye3080 that was like 3 years later man. Pay attention
Big daddy Kane sampled “POP LIFE” for his song “THE LOVER IN YOU” but they were label mates ( Warner Brothers) plus Warner owned that song , it was on their label .
King Tee checked Pac about his culture vulture antics right then and there😂
How the fuc is a culture vulture he comes from a revolutionary background and grew up in New York and LA in the streets you gonna be wild male or female. And if anybody don’t know it we in LA are renegades we don’t give a shit what ppl think 💯
King Tee got knocked out that’s what Ed Lover didn’t mention. That’s when calls were made and King Tee found out Pac was really plugged in so he didn’t check nothing goofy 🤣🤣🤣🤣
And drunk. T was wrong.
King tee got whooped. Wonder why Ed left that out.
@@saucejames2349 King Tee got snuck by a coward, Pac didn't hit him or beat hom down had to have help for a drunk solo King Tee huh? And where did Tee lie? Pac wasn't a Crip. You cult members delusion for your false idol makes you the real goofy...Goofy! F o h you not frm the Chi lol 😂
This is an absolute legend rite here yall
Tupac vs a drunk guy is a fair fight.
Pac could drop yo ass while you talkin
Oo so someone talking shit or pressing you since he’s drunk you’re supposed to let it slide lmao. Can tell you from boonies
- Well this might seem odd
- You ask who taught me, well it must’ve been god
- Cause ain’t none of y’all cool like me
- The impresario Majestic Tee
Funny how all the people in the comments saying "this is cap" none of us were there! 😂😂. You don't know if its cap or not. Just enjoy the stories and relax 😂😂😂
Go watch King T's interviews.He said Pac never hit him and they talked later.
Because there’s facts that debunk it
It's cap, Tupac is dead. Anyone can come on and say anything. Snoop is known to exaggerate his stories too
I can see Pac doing that the way people say he talked he talked " fast and quick " like...
" A bro let me sample that bro " like real fast not even thinking about it lol
May be prince didnt think very highly of pac 🤷♂️
He told Pac to comeback stage to kick it with him and apparently was a fan of his music. Internet people love starting shit that isn’t there
Pac did sample his music do me, babe...
“To Live & Die In LA” is Prince’s song called “Do Me Baby” and ironically that is one of PAC’s top 5 songs to me
You sound stupid they hung out together and pac sampled his music later on goofy
Prince had love for pac, pac even went to his nighg club lmao. Yall don't know anything
Mr.Makaveli Still Sampled Prince Shit! 🤣
PAC wanted to be a gangster so bad.
You’re a goofy
How?
@@BM_718 bruh what
@BM_718 Did you not hear Ed Lover he said himself that King Tee being drunk started basically tripping on Tupac over him having a blue rag so Pac stood up for himself. It wasn't about Pac trying to be gangster it was simply about him setting King Tee straight.
@IdontevenknowU pac aimed his gun at the real enemy, the police. Tell me when your so called street dude did that?
Dave please do a skit on this 😂
No wonder King Tee was dissing Pac in his interviews all these years... Wow!
Let hear King Tee's side of the story.
Pac was always about the smoke. Never a punk. So passionate man. Love hearing stories about Pac.
He was always about that smoke, and then ultimately got smoked. There’s a difference between passionate and misguided ignorance.
You may love that about Pac, but you have to acknowledge that it was that exact mindset and hard-headedness that got him murked.
That’s not a good thing.
Them crips beg to differ since they made sure pac couldn't escape a second timee😂
@@KardiFan2000yupp which can happen to any of his closetfanboyss cappin for him too 😂
2Pac & Prince making a song together would have been something.
Prince was always a weird one. Also overrated. Seemed like he was only big in the US.
Hahaha what??? Prince was big all over the world!!!
