Can we all just take a minute to appreciate what a good and respecatable guy Mu is today and how well he managed to turn his life around from the path he was on in his younger days
I can't shake the feeling there's something fake about him. When he tells stories about the crazy shit he would do, like instigating fights with people over nothing, he's straight laughing. I have a hard time putting it together. He's such a great person now but still enjoys talking about hurting people. I dunno, I can't unite the two.
@@Preach07 I don't know man, we all like talking about the silly and crazy shyt we did in our youth even if it's things we don't agree with today...and we laugh about it because it's so far removed from the people we are today now we are grown. I guess he still gets a kick out of his past war stories and how crazy his life used to be even if its not something he agrees with today. He has not become a saint, just a better person
The fact !! Will only daughter wrote a letter to Tupac shakur asking him to come back an make her mom happy!!! Speaks volumes!!! Jada is out of line !!! Unacceptable Jada
The title is twisting Napolean a bit. The man is wise and too mature to convey that perspective of Will trying to be Pac. Napolean was simply addressing the variance of opinions with open ended commentary, with the exception of C. Rock. He is right. Will made a huge lane and so did Pac. To think this happened bc Will was trying to be Pac is ridiculous. Being married to what appears to be a contentious women who loves the attention is the root of it.
He's not bashing him. He's telling the truth. Will is not 23 years old l. He's 50 something years old. It's called growing up. Will needs to stop letting jada Pinkett run him.
EXACTLY he channeled the spirits of that Mike Lowry character. People don't understand the psychology in acting. I said this same shyt that night.especially when he says keep my wife name out ya fuqin mouth.his mannerisms were that of Mike Lowry felt like I was watching a skit.then he went into a emotional crying character to get the reward talking a bunch of nonsense.
I have so much respect for this man. Never negative about anything or anyone; to think that he comes from a very rough background but he’s this good hearted is just heart warming
That's Islam reflecting off him. Don't believe all the propaganda u read and hear a out us Muslims on the news. Our religion alhamdulillah is universal. No white or black. Even Pac respected Islam and Muslims (NOT the nation of Islam, they some pagans). I'm talking the real Islam Malcom x followed. I invite yall to at least research the religion rather instead of listening to negative propaganda and Allah knows best.
I agree 100%. You should check out the documentary about him. It’s called: “Napoleon: life of an outlaw” (2019). It’s still on Amazon I think. His story is crazy! What he’s been through as a child is just heart wrenching and the progress he has made as an human being, after all that bullshit, is very admirable. “To you, death is losin’. To me, it’s a family reunion” - Napoleon. That line gave me goosebumps when I heard it. Peace to Napoleon.
He's not trying to be Tupac.His wife plays mind games with him only to turn on him it's called humiliation.Jada is good at that she's going to drive him crazy if he doesn't get away from her.

And yet, everyone always condemned Chris Rock for allowing Will to smack him and handle it like a real G..on national television at that. Chris clearly saw the bigger picture as it would've been another excuse for Hollywood or White America in particular to stigmatized African Americans as a whole had the situation went another way. Can't always think with emotions
I've listened to the gentleman a few times, very wise and mature, changed his ways and that probably saved his life and now we're able to enjoy his insight on some of the pass history on Tupac and things that happened back then.
Misleading title. After watching I'd say Napoleon is saying that Will needs to be confident in himself, not feel intimidated by 2Pac's history with his wife.

Napoleon kicked FACTS! from beginning to end. Hopefully, Will and Jada see this interview, especially the parts about going "Private". You put your business in the streets, the streets gonna be IN your business. What he said about MAN and WOMAN is TRUTH!!!

Mutah Always give great interviews. Very truthful and authentic. My personal belief is Pac didn't want the Outlawz to die as thugs but to live long enough to become something greater. Pac would be proud of Napoleon.
My salute to this guy...he proved that we all can be a better person and as a Muslim,I've been in his shoes and Alhamdulillah I changed to different man now in a positive way...
Please don’t make being undisciplined synonymous with being like Tupac. Pac, like other men, had his moments, but he was definitely a caring person and passionate dude.
You long winded doggy. He was an entertainer first all that other ish don’t matter. Ninjas just refused to grow up but want to stay relevant. It’s a problem in the black community. We need to knock off the BS
Much respect to Napoleon and his assessment of Will and Jada situation. Is not easy being a married couple in Hollywood, and I wish for their marriage to stand these test of times despite people's negative sentiments... I root for their marriage and 2 beautiful kids plus a stepson to Jada.
@@brianwalker1996-t8u Numbnuts I didn't say napoleon's song was THE ONLY TRIBUTE SONG FOR PAC,I said one of the best..u think as a pac fan I don't know about Treach's song..I'm 39 I grew up to this stuff.
Actions are a part of it. He didn’t human traffic teenagers or something crazy, but he looks simpishly weak to me. He’ll be fine and I don’t have hate for him, but what you do matters.
Which is why the greatest ally that a man has is self control, its the only thing that can save someone. Easier said than done, but its doable. Self control will keep you out of so much trouble. I'm realizing this everyday in my own life
I dont agree with napoleon when he said will Smith is trying to be 2pac. Will is just trying his best to have a happy life, while his wife is the issue.
He didn’t exactly say that. He was responding to how the question was posed. Art said people are saying he’s trying to be Tupac and he was responding to that.
Nah, Willa dmitted to insecurities. SO no, he aint just trying to have a happy life. He allows his wife to abuse him. He isnt the head of his household.
Agreed. I bet she was saying things like “Pac would have XYZ… Pac wasn’t scared to whatever…”. It’s like she uses the idea of Pac as a weapon/tool in her marriage and for general attention.
This whole thing of “will trying to be like Pac” was some foolish shyt meme started by the internet by saying “Jada told him I’m not impressed, Pac would have shot him”….. “Pac wouldn’t have let him talk about me like that”. Etc etc the internet being the internet.
Yea cause I’m not famous but if pushed to the limit I probably will snap too. We’re human man that’s what the white people want to do keep us divided. If will slapped a white mama he would be in jail. Instead he slapped a black man wake up my black people. They want to keep us apart
@@danaray9035 Ask him, in his religion if a murder has happen he's supposed to do whatever it takes to make amends, had he done anything to help Yaasmyn ? (Kadafi Mom) .... Napoleon, you need to bring your cousin out of hiding and his friend so we can get Justice. Rip Kadafi
So I gotta say this. I think any man understands why Will would not be comfortable with Pac and Jada's relationship. Its Pac after all. And then they're always in pictures together, writing each other poetry, talking about their close relationship constantly. Yeah, I don't care how much your girl says "we're just friends". You're not believing that shit and you're gonna feel some kind of way. Will knows, like we all did, that Pac was smashing everything. He smashed any women he WANTED to smash and that's where I get to Jada. I feel like one reason Jada may be so fucked up in the head is maybe she DID want something deeper with Pac but HE didn't want anything romantic with her. I mean, I'm in my 40's, most people my age feel Jada was always actually IN LOVE with Pac and she sees Pac smashing any and everybody but then looks at her as a "sister". Now you would think a woman may actually appreciated that but if she's in love with that man, that might mess her up in the head. Cause this is 90's Jada, Menace II Society, Low down dirty shame Jada. She was just as fine as any other chick was. So the reason I feel like they're relationship never progressed to the next level is because PAC didn't want it to. SOMETHING in her head has to ask her self, "why doesn't he want to fuck me like he's fucking all these other chicks"? I don't feel like it was a mutual decision just like I don't feel like it was a mutual decision for her and Will to have an "open" relationship. How many dudes you know gonna be cool with that? Hell the dude might be like yeah I'll fuck other chicks but you ain't gonna be fuckin other dudes, lol. That's something Will agreed to because Jada wanted it, guarantee it. Just like she clearly never wanted to marry him, it wasn't a mutual decision. Will wasn't her first choice. Doesn't saying, Will wasn't her first choice, insinuate that Pac was? So shouldn't we be asking how this as affected her mentally and why she's treated Will like this for so long?
the difference between Art Of Dialogue and the rest is that he treats each oerson and subject with common love and respect. This makes his the best platform at what he does which is telling the most important stories of Hip Hop's most important and interesting ppl of Hip Hop's apex. sALUTE!
This might be the most intelligent answer I heard for the famous will slap question. If Chris swung back, they would’ve blamed a whole Race of people. Felt that!
Napoleon holding it down for Pac✊🏾 Now we was once two niggas of the same kind Quick to holla at a hoochie with the same line You was just a little smaller but you still rolled Got stretched to Y.A. and hit the hood swoll Member when you had a jheri curl didn't quite learn On the block, witcha glock, trippin off sherm Collect calls to the till, sayin' how ya changed Oh you a Muslim now, no more dope game Heard you might be comin' home, just got bail Wanna go to the Mosque, don't wanna chase tail I seems I lost my little homie he's a changed man Hit the pen and now no sinnin' is the game plan
Yoooo...shout out to one of the Outlawz Legend...yeah i was waiting on somebody close to pac to speak on this jada/Will/Pac situation..cuz no man should be compared to another man
Wills number one priority in life is Jada's happiness. This is why he let Augustina hit it. This is why he retaliated against Chris. I'm pretty sure she has some type of hex or spell on him.
How is Will trying to be Tupac.He has never tried to act “hard”.Everrrrr.For years Will has been called corny and did nothing to try to change that narrative.We have never even see him be aggressive.Until he slapped Chris.So Im confused? Confusion is me. Lol
There's no confusion but there's a subtle advice to Will in what he's saying. You're right that Will is Will but when it comes to Jada he's envious of the special relationship she and PAC had. Napoleon is basically saying, done being insecure over their friendship by stop trying to match up to PAC in Jada's eyes. And he's also indirectly or discreetly telling Jada to stop messing with that man's head, maybe lol...Its crazy the hold a woman can have on a man and the things he lives with in is head for decades. Ironically, Jada told Will way back then that he's a lot like PAC, smh. 😂
@@JJ-mm9uf In Will’s book he said he WAS envious of their connection..Being young and immature.Pac been dead for over 25yrs.I doubt he’s in competition with a dead man.
Those who are true hip hop heads know Will Smith ain’t never been no punk he was on tour with other hip hop acts such as Public Enemy and what many considered more hard or street rappers and it was Will Smith that was constantly fighting.
one thing i will always live for is a napoleon interview with art! hes literally my fave that art interviews. my top 4 is him, Danny boy and Keefe D and Jewell
Napoleon is solid as they come. In all of his interviews, he is the most consistent with his storytelling about Pac and death row and biggie with bad boy. I'm glad to see his growth and maturity from his teenage years to adulthood, I'm proud of the man he has become. The higher spirit has blessed him abundantly.
I believe she wanted pac but pac wasn't looking at it like how she was. Jada was was more absent with 2pac and she didn't get the chance to be a relationship with him.
Not saying will was right but I get why he did what he did he said he felt like a coward his whole life (not trying to be pac but envy him because jada will never love him like pac) that's a whole nother issue lol

Would definitely like to see Kidada Jones on this platform but the connection with Tupac and Will and Jada Pinkett will always be there. Will Smith however definitely wasn't trying to be like Tupac. What Napoleon said about Hollywood was completely right. And they Will and Jada definitely need to start being private about their marriage.
2pac wouldn't walked on stage slap nobody...not over words...you never seen 2pac do this....but to tell the truth ain't nobody coming on stage coming at me like that....that was a big mistake will made....he let his ego get the best of him.

@@jalenaverylloydaveryiisson8862 I don't condone smacking somebody over something small...it's the way will took it....even though he was laughing at first...all of sudden he snapped.
He did and it was more than just conjugal visits, she, Keisha Morris, was actually managing all of his business affairs while Pac was locked up and was actually integral in getting Suge to get the bail agreement through. Another woman who should receive credit for handling a lot of his business is Desiree Smith, she was a girl of Tupac's also around at that time. Both were from the NY area.
@@neshapayne3166 Um because Pac was finished with her help when he got out, she was a buffer beween Interscope, his lawyers, and Deathrow and Pac had other females too. She says that they never even had conujugal visits because Tupac didn't want to subject a person to such disrespect.

Much Respect 2 Napoleon Always speaks from his Heart knowledge is Power Salute my Brother!
Please don’t make being undisciplined synonymous with being like Tupac. Pac, like other men, had his moments, but he was definitely a caring person and passionate dude.
Is this based on TH-cam videos or did you know the nigga ? U internet niggas is weird go play outside 😩
You long winded doggy. He was an entertainer first all that other ish don’t matter. Ninjas just refused to grow up but want to stay relevant. It’s a problem in the black community. We need to knock off the BS
He did a lot of reckless stuff that people refuse to acknowledge.
@@aaronflowers8881 this nigga said passionate 😩😩
@@tonystarke9820 lol he was though but he was still reckless.
Much respect to Napoleon and his assessment of Will and Jada situation. Is not easy being a married couple in Hollywood, and I wish for their marriage to stand these test of times despite people's negative sentiments... I root for their marriage and 2 beautiful kids plus a stepson to Jada.
Napoleon "never forget" one of the best tupac tributes ever..
Treach I mourn till I join you I guess you forgot about that song he pay tribute to Tupac Shakur
@@brianwalker1996-t8u yea I know that song,I said one of,I guess u can't read
I can read what hell u talk about I guess you don't know you history on rap music

Doesn't matter, Mu said to destroy every song he ever made.
Love seeing nepolean on the platform
I like it when he isn't trying to propaganda his religion and pointing the finger at the white man
This man has grown so much its inspiring
Will Smith is a legend. This should not impact his future. This man has been a model celebrity
Actions are a part of it. He didn’t human traffic teenagers or something crazy, but he looks simpishly weak to me. He’ll be fine and I don’t have hate for him, but what you do matters.
Nah Will is a beta male provider
Will tarnished his celebrity stature bcos of Jada
Has was all past tense! Not now bro he ruined himself!
Will Smith Did All That Only For Jada to Make Him Look Bad 🥴🥴🥴
That face always ends up her “looking” victim
She's playing with his mind build him up to bring him back down she controls how he's feeling.
@Dw International some do but some actually uplift you. You just need to be with the right one.
Which is why the greatest ally that a man has is self control, its the only thing that can save someone. Easier said than done, but its doable. Self control will keep you out of so much trouble. I'm realizing this everyday in my own life
I dont agree with napoleon when he said will Smith is trying to be 2pac. Will is just trying his best to have a happy life, while his wife is the issue.
Facts
He didn’t exactly say that. He was responding to how the question was posed. Art said people are saying he’s trying to be Tupac and he was responding to that.
Nah, Willa dmitted to insecurities. SO no, he aint just trying to have a happy life. He allows his wife to abuse him. He isnt the head of his household.
@NIGHT CRAWLER
EXACTLY.
Jada has to let 2Pac go and stop abusing Will where the whole world can see and Will has take charge of his household not Jada.
i dont think will is trying to be like tupac, i think he just reached boiling point with jada
Agreed. I bet she was saying things like “Pac would have XYZ… Pac wasn’t scared to whatever…”. It’s like she uses the idea of Pac as a weapon/tool in her marriage and for general attention.
@@eightykakes15 when did she ever say that lol yall be reaching
Art, I love the set, the background and the chair, the interview everything is on point ❤❤❤💯💯💯💯💋❤❤very professional and very interesting 👍❤
This whole thing of “will trying to be like Pac” was some foolish shyt meme started by the internet by saying “Jada told him I’m not impressed, Pac would have shot him”….. “Pac wouldn’t have let him talk about me like that”. Etc etc the internet being the internet.

I don't think it has anything to do with Pac bro. I think there's more to the story that we won't know about and he just lost it.
Exactly, he had alot going on that we don't know about. Not to mention will and rock have history
Yea, at this point I agree.
Yea cause I’m not famous but if pushed to the limit I probably will snap too. We’re human man that’s what the white people want to do keep us divided. If will slapped a white mama he would be in jail. Instead he slapped a black man wake up my black people. They want to keep us apart
@@danaray9035 Ask him, in his religion if a murder has happen he's supposed to do whatever it takes to make amends, had he done anything to help Yaasmyn ? (Kadafi Mom) .... Napoleon, you need to bring your cousin out of hiding and his friend so we can get Justice. Rip Kadafi
@@mbreland25 Facts
I see Napoleon, I instantly watch
Love seeing the Napoleon interviews he got stories for days 💯
I agree with Napoleon 100% about keeping your personal business and affairs off the internet.
The first minute was such an overload of "man" and "bruh".
So I gotta say this. I think any man understands why Will would not be comfortable with Pac and Jada's relationship. Its Pac after all. And then they're always in pictures together, writing each other poetry, talking about their close relationship constantly. Yeah, I don't care how much your girl says "we're just friends". You're not believing that shit and you're gonna feel some kind of way. Will knows, like we all did, that Pac was smashing everything. He smashed any women he WANTED to smash and that's where I get to Jada.
I feel like one reason Jada may be so fucked up in the head is maybe she DID want something deeper with Pac but HE didn't want anything romantic with her. I mean, I'm in my 40's, most people my age feel Jada was always actually IN LOVE with Pac and she sees Pac smashing any and everybody but then looks at her as a "sister". Now you would think a woman may actually appreciated that but if she's in love with that man, that might mess her up in the head. Cause this is 90's Jada, Menace II Society, Low down dirty shame Jada. She was just as fine as any other chick was. So the reason I feel like they're relationship never progressed to the next level is because PAC didn't want it to. SOMETHING in her head has to ask her self, "why doesn't he want to fuck me like he's fucking all these other chicks"? I don't feel like it was a mutual decision just like I don't feel like it was a mutual decision for her and Will to have an "open" relationship. How many dudes you know gonna be cool with that? Hell the dude might be like yeah I'll fuck other chicks but you ain't gonna be fuckin other dudes, lol. That's something Will agreed to because Jada wanted it, guarantee it. Just like she clearly never wanted to marry him, it wasn't a mutual decision. Will wasn't her first choice. Doesn't saying, Will wasn't her first choice, insinuate that Pac was? So shouldn't we be asking how this as affected her mentally and why she's treated Will like this for so long?
Good points
Thanks for this interview. I love Mu interviews! ❤
the difference between Art Of Dialogue and the rest is that he treats each oerson and subject with common love and respect. This makes his the best platform at what he does which is telling the most important stories of Hip Hop's most important and interesting ppl of Hip Hop's apex. sALUTE!
This might be the most intelligent answer I heard for the famous will slap question.
If Chris swung back, they would’ve blamed a whole Race of people. Felt that!

@@lilvnature8617 i know..
Napoleon always is a good interview. Soon as I seen this I clicked. His song Patronize is Fire too if you never heard it.
Why everybody actin like Will not a nigga from Philly😑? Like Philly full of squares or something ?
They always say Tupac was engaged to Kidada Jones but when/where did a propose happen? No backstory on that...
Will Smith should see this interview.
Yoooo...shout out to one of the Outlawz Legend...yeah i was waiting on somebody close to pac to speak on this jada/Will/Pac situation..cuz no man should be compared to another man
Napoleon approach the scene of the caper
Approach the scene skipping?
Nighga wtf is a caper?
Love to the Man Napoleon, Respect to his Humility!
Wills number one priority in life is Jada's happiness.
This is why he let Augustina hit it.
This is why he retaliated against Chris.
I'm pretty sure she has some type of hex or spell on him.
Somewhat like Kyballion or Wicca
Soon as i saw the thumbnail i clicked immediately good to always hear from Napoleon.
Will Smith has never once tried to be 2Pac. I don't understand how Napoleon came to that conclusion.
Thank you!
Title and Napoleon words are not the same. He didn't say that
@@The_Idea_of_Dream_Vision He just said "Be yourself". How does he know Will wasn't being himself?
@@senzogcabashe5915 in general Will Smith doesn’t seem to be himself. The way he is handling his family you can tell things are not okay.
@@The_Idea_of_Dream_Vision Do you guys know Will personally to be making those assumptions?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Not laughing at napoleon laughing at the title of the vid.
How is Will trying to be Tupac.He has never tried to act “hard”.Everrrrr.For years Will has been called corny and did nothing to try to change that narrative.We have never even see him be aggressive.Until he slapped Chris.So Im confused? Confusion is me. Lol
There's no confusion but there's a subtle advice to Will in what he's saying.
You're right that Will is Will but when it comes to Jada he's envious of the special relationship she and PAC had. Napoleon is basically saying, done being insecure over their friendship by stop trying to match up to PAC in Jada's eyes. And he's also indirectly or discreetly telling Jada to stop messing with that man's head, maybe lol...Its crazy the hold a woman can have on a man and the things he lives with in is head for decades. Ironically, Jada told Will way back then that he's a lot like PAC, smh. 😂
Nikki • facts my sista preach ✊🏿💯
@@JJ-mm9uf In Will’s book he said he WAS envious of their connection..Being young and immature.Pac been dead for over 25yrs.I doubt he’s in competition with a dead man.
Word, that one throws me off.. Nah, Will smith is himself... And, he's much older than pac!!
its always a good time when napoleon does an interview
Those who are true hip hop heads know Will Smith ain’t never been no punk he was on tour with other hip hop acts such as Public Enemy and what many considered more hard or street rappers and it was Will Smith that was constantly fighting.
Yep. When niggas think ur 'corny' they will always be testing u, and ad a result, u will be fighting. A *lot.*
People forget that.

No other rapper got TH-cam channels bout their life smh rip the goat 🙏
Straight facts Napoleon is the only one who knows the real deal!!
Dang this dude has all the right answers he could be a counselor lol
Napoleon got such a great observation n stance on alotta views, as a grown man that show his morals, loyalty, n all round humanity. Blessings!
This is where I disagree at trying to be Tupac? Really? I think will is going through a lot however be Tupac that’s such false statements to stay
Napoleon is solid as they come. In all of his interviews, he is the most consistent with his storytelling about Pac and death row and biggie with bad boy. I'm glad to see his growth and maturity from his teenage years to adulthood, I'm proud of the man he has become. The higher spirit has blessed him abundantly.
I believe she wanted pac but pac wasn't looking at it like how she was. Jada was was more absent with 2pac and she didn't get the chance to be a relationship with him.
So mature. So well-spoken.

Would definitely like to see Kidada Jones on this platform but the connection with Tupac and Will and Jada Pinkett will always be there. Will Smith however definitely wasn't trying to be like Tupac. What Napoleon said about Hollywood was completely right. And they Will and Jada definitely need to start being private about their marriage.
I hate it when they keep saying YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN 🤦🏽♂️
I think Tupac got with Kidada to piss off Quincy Jones.
No shit 😂😂😂😂
@@BigWiltonWilt oh word...wow! You're so smart bozo
That's what I hear many people say but I don't think so. Tupac was ANYTHING BUT petty.

2pac wouldn't walked on stage slap nobody...not over words...you never seen 2pac do this....but to tell the truth ain't nobody coming on stage coming at me like that....that was a big mistake will made....he let his ego get the best of him.
@@jalenaverylloydaveryiisson8862 will wasn't never slapping 2pac...even though 2pac was a good dude...but he won't go for that....will should had just stayed his a** in this seat...wasn't even necessary...he sure pick the right match with chris rock...cause he wouldn't had did that s*** to singer august alsina.

“Well spoken my boiii”!!!💪🏿💯
If I'm not mistaking, Tupac actually got married to someone at some point
He did it was for conjugal visits
He did and it was more than just conjugal visits, she, Keisha Morris, was actually managing all of his business affairs while Pac was locked up and was actually integral in getting Suge to get the bail agreement through. Another woman who should receive credit for handling a lot of his business is Desiree Smith, she was a girl of Tupac's also around at that time. Both were from the NY area.
@@djayb2259 if it was more than just conjugal visits how come no one mentions her and why as soon as he got out they divorced?
@@neshapayne3166 Um because Pac was finished with her help when he got out, she was a buffer beween Interscope, his lawyers, and Deathrow and Pac had other females too. She says that they never even had conujugal visits because Tupac didn't want to subject a person to such disrespect.
Nothn but love!!! Honest and humble always!!! 🙏🏼god bless him
Pac was on a whole other level of maturity, Pac wouldn't agreed with Jada today
I don't think pac would want to see will and Chris incident. He would want peace amongst the black community.
Wow I really really have a tremendous Respect for napoleon, salute man. I do really like to watch his interviews
