Naw bro if you do the timeline alot of the rappers you talking about didn’t come on the scene or blew up until pac and big die.. like jay z , dmx, no limit cash money , camron mase etc... the south literally blew up a year or two after big and pac died
Tupac was just 25 years old when he died and biggie only 24.......I can't even imagine losing my son/daughter at that age. Two young men who defined hip hop forever and became legends
It seems that way because of what they achieved especially tupac he literally changed peoples lives, and continues to do so in future generations. The fact were all talking about them now 25 years later speaks volumes.
@@TreasureW1 I believe it too , if I was Tupac I would have left and I wouldn't care about coming back because white people are always going to try to kill your legacy and take your money , why not move to another country , yes you can have a life outside of the USA

Plus Eminem said in 2002 in a song called say goodbye to Hollywood that he sold his soul to the devil and he'll never get it back and after that he started to change and the theories about him getting replaced with a clone started so idk about that.
It's a trip tho I remember watching TV in 1996 I was 7 years old at the time, and i remember like it was yesterday when pac died and as a kid they look like grown as men to me like my dad now that I'm 31 you truly know just how short 25 and 24 years old is they was just kids their damn self!

The thing is: everyone in the 90s is authentic af with their clothing and behavior. Nowadays they just copy eachother but back then they had some real personality and values to teach. Peace to Pac and Biggie my man 😌
Values? I don't know, but isn't it maybe elevating those two further than what they were? Rather uneducated men who rose to fame and in this process actually could not deal with the attention they were getting, not being able to establish working relationships. I am not too sure what one should look up to for, surely one shouldn't be coping those guys. Go to school, get educated, get a normal job, live your life. Cut the crap those guys talk about most of the time. Like, they were good at what they did, but that's it. Like your local carpenter.
Yet another arrogant nostalgic. Alot of the 90s culture was also fakers. Punk and ganfster rap were pushed to the forefront and exploited for an apathwtic bored Gen X teen audience.
It would have turned out the same, there were many huge rappers after them two, it would pan out the way it did with them alive or dead, the show goes on.

False. Pac acted gangsta which he wasn't and then he found out what it meant to actuall be a gangsta. Pac was always acting like somebody he wasn't. Don't deny it. Look at the man. He acted gangsta with Death Row and he paid for it with his life.

Keefe D, the same person, alongside his nephew who both killed Tupac, admitted that Diddy placed a $1,000,000 bounty on Suge's and Tupac's head.
You can’t live a long life packing heat and hanging with gangs. That gang life killed them both. Wasn’t mature enough yet to get away. If they made it to 30 plus I bet they would have wised up
You can really tell that Biggie wanted to end this beef, especially after it became bigger than him and 'Pac. Two visionaires that died too early. I discovered their music pretty late, but I'm so glad that I did. I listen to both new rap (which a lot of oldschool fans hate) and oldschool stuff, but the oldschool stuff just has a different vibe which I don't know if it will be replicated ever again. R.I.P. to Tupac, Biggie, DJ Screw, Eazy-E and anyone else who left their mark on the genre that took the world by storm.
It seems even worse now...Look how many rappers have been killed recently. XXXtentacion, King Von, Pop Smoke, Nipsey Hustle...There was a period in the late 90s to late 2000s where there weren’t as many deaths, but things have gone back to being bad.
good to see his spirit was golden and his ideas still genuine today he had big dreams.....sad to say he was way ahead of his time and was taken away from us to soon.. RIP BIG you a Legend...
@@seanjuhn4584 I thought Biggie was the one who wanted to be there? I heard somewhere that he wanted to be in L.A to squash the beef between west and east.
the 26 year old me watched this interview real time. in la on BET at my ex girls house. i had just left the peterson automotive museum right before he was popped( RIP BIG) facts.. crazy time who knew so impactful.
RIP biggie 🙏🏻 I wasn’t born when he was alive but his music truly had a big impact on my generation and all the previous generations like props to biggie 🔥 he was taken away from us to soon like imagine how different the rap game would be if he was still here
Tupac was killed by Orlando “baby lane” Anderson after Tupac and his crew stomped him at the MGM Grand Hotel for previously robbing one of their crew members. Suge Knight’s ex, who was pressured with serious jail time from the FBI, revealed that Biggie was killed by Wardell "Poochie" Fouse, a Mob Piru gang member and an associate of Knight. Orlando was killed in a shootout in LA and Poochie died on July 24, 2003, after being shot in the back while riding his motorcycle. You reap what you sew! Both of the murderers of these legends also died by guns. If you live by the sword, you’ll die by the sword.
Was a tragedy for this brilliant artist to lose his life so early! He was a musical architect and invented his own brand of hip-hop. One of the greatest to ever do it! Biggie never really got to reap the fruit of his hard work and art. He never got to truly enjoy the benefits of fame, money and power and the impact his music had on culture. Though we still feel the ripples of his life, music and legacy today, it’s heart breaking that he never got to live it and see it. One love B.I.G.
That "Life after Death" was so real because Biggie pasted away before the album came out. I remember i was in the hospital waiting for my oldest daughter to be born. When Biggie left us March 9th and my daughter was born 12:04 am March 10th. That was the first time I seen life leave and come into the world on that level. I said a prayer for Biggie and his family that night. Rest easy Biggie and 2Pac.
I remember watching the notorious movie with my mom when it came out and I thought biggie was so old, I’m now 26 and showed my 25 year old girlfriend the movie and some clips and stuff of biggie the other night and I completely forgot he was only 24 and it blows my mind how young he was!
It really puts into perspective how young Pac and Biggie were when they died, I'm years older now than they were when they passed and I blasted their music in my teen years.
Wish everyday we can get these two back biggie and 2pac dammit now look what we stuck with now in days i love watching videos back in the day no phones no social media none of that shit
Tupacs biggest problem was ego and too much cocaine. The guy was so paranoid. Genius but paranoid. Biggie was always more humble than Pac. I think unlike 2pac, biggie just wanted to make lots of music and money whereas pac just took it to a whole new level of madness
Was born in 97. I wish I was a decade earlier so I could've witnessed more of this Era. The 90s were truly the perfect time for me. It's always so neat how you can instantly distinguish the 90s, 80s, etc from each other.
It's better to have a loyal enemy who respects you and wishes no death on you. R.I.P. Biggie John 13:34 says, "A new command I give you: Love one another as I have loved you, so you must love one another."
Breaks my heart till this day. Didn’t even get time see his dream of producing a diamond album. 24 was undisputed number 1 in the whole game. He had more messages to give us all he hadn’t even reached his true potential. Rest easy the KING OF KINGS
Dang, i cant believe how fast time flew....... You hear it all the time, but when mega years pass, decades wise, it hits hard Crazy. I remember watching this interview when it aired the summer when I was 21 or 22. After watching it, heading out to chill with my pals and smoke up, having a good time. Now I'll be turning 50 in a week and a half, holy smokers!!! I sure miss the good ol days of my youth. Young fellows, enjoy every day, every minute of it, because time don't wait for nobody.
it's like the heavens don't want perfection to exist in this world for long. two of the absolute best rappers in the business by a country mile. don't care about the other heavy hitters out there, these two were something else.
Here in South Africa a musician called Simphiwe Dana said in some interview, on the day they heard of Tupac is dead they were at school and the classes was suspended for that day coz they couldn't COPE they all cried.
Can you imagine how relatable and powerful Tupac's music must have been for black folks around the world ... I'm white, middle class, and Tupac educated me about racism and the struggle blacks go through, more than a decade after his death. That man's a legend, for real.

Keefe D, the same person, alongside his nephew who both killed Tupac, admitted that Diddy placed a $1,000,000 bounty on Suge's and Tupac's head.
I think deep down, realistically both pac and biggie knew their time was coming. So sad, both paved the way for so many artists of today!
True, their songs on death literally portrays their death. Listen to "Hold ya Head" by BIG and see how close it is to reality.
@@User-du7kf that's just a remix of suicidal thoughts, which is way better imo
You can’t live a long life packing heat and hanging with gangs. That gang life killed them both. Wasn’t mature enough yet to get away. If they made it to 30 plus I bet they would have wised up

@@stevenwalker9013 biggie wasn't even involved in that life when he got famous
Pac on the other hand..made it worse when he jumped Anderson
You can really tell that Biggie wanted to end this beef, especially after it became bigger than him and 'Pac. Two visionaires that died too early. I discovered their music pretty late, but I'm so glad that I did. I listen to both new rap (which a lot of oldschool fans hate) and oldschool stuff, but the oldschool stuff just has a different vibe which I don't know if it will be replicated ever again. R.I.P. to Tupac, Biggie, DJ Screw, Eazy-E and anyone else who left their mark on the genre that took the world by storm.
I love biggie but give more respect to my mentor prophet 2pac

Biggie and Pac are now the only 2 rappers inducted into the Rock and Roll hall of fame! Legends.

Its really crazy how rappers back then had to face death everyday..
That’s why rap back then is better than the 2010s-current cause they had to face a bunch of obstacles to survive & succeed
It seems even worse now...Look how many rappers have been killed recently. XXXtentacion, King Von, Pop Smoke, Nipsey Hustle...There was a period in the late 90s to late 2000s where there weren’t as many deaths, but things have gone back to being bad.

Proud to say i got to see all this play out in real time! Legend biggie smalls. 1990s best years ever.
It was ah BOLD move for biggie to go to L.A..even though he knew he wasnt so much welcomed there.....R.I.P Notorious B.I.G
I remember meeting big in Baltimore at the hammer Jack's club a week before he died
Darryl knight vibe elaborate bro. More on the story how was his energy etc
Player last online 20 years ago....
By that time pac was also in Baltimore.
Would’ve been impossible, he was in Cali for 2 months before he died.
It's sad that the hit had already been taken out on biggie. He was a dead man walking at the time of this interview
Ya on the documentary it said they met at a strip club in bellflower and planned it out
I LOVE both Biggie & Tupac!! They are very much missed!!
good to see his spirit was golden and his ideas still genuine today he had big dreams.....sad to say he was way ahead of his time and was taken away from us to soon.. RIP BIG you a Legend...
If Tupac was still alive man he would shut the whole industry up
He is frozen just before his peak. He would be like eminem or snoop if alive today
for real. biggie would have been dancing around in videos with a shiny suit.
No tf he wouldn’t he would be just like Eminem jay z and snoop but just a bit bigger and more recognized the industry would still have changed
Tupac 🙄 biggy was the maaaaiiiinnn 👊🏻
Honestly kinda dout it
I still remember as a 18 year old watching this interview thinking , " WHAT THE HELL IS HE DOING OUT THERE RIGHT NOW"..
Bcuz Puffy suggested that they do a vid in LA..Knowing all the long Suge&Fat Reggie(ex cop) was gonna hit him..Puff served him up on a platter!..
@@seanjuhn4584 I thought Biggie was the one who wanted to be there? I heard somewhere that he wanted to be in L.A to squash the beef between west and east.

So basically....P Diddy set him up.

the 26 year old me watched this interview real time. in la on BET at my ex girls house. i had just left the peterson automotive museum right before he was popped( RIP BIG) facts.. crazy time who knew so impactful.
I lived in new York in those days and I remember the east coast west cost beef. We felt it and it was real.
Wow! Massive respect wish I could sit down with you and hear how it was like
Were u east coast or west coast 🤔🤔

Press 5:09 a couple times in a row. It’s better than most rapper’s careers.

Why kill T u p a c Shakur, Biggie Small????/an sense less act!!!!/will we ever know????/both legends R.I.P.
🙌 Yes
Come out and fight
Never tough ill see you here
RIP biggie 🙏🏻 I wasn’t born when he was alive but his music truly had a big impact on my generation and all the previous generations like props to biggie 🔥 he was taken away from us to soon like imagine how different the rap game would be if he was still here
Pac and biggie didn't even try to be gangsters.. They were born into this life. True OGs.
I was born six months after he passed! Hes a legend. Long live biggie smalls!
Ready to die and life after death ..... and he died 🤔 i guess he was predicting his demise
He was dead already so the predict was as simple as if you play with 🔥
@@ibrahimkhalil9858 what you mean he was dead already 🤔
he was dead already because he knew he messed up with the wrong niggaz so he was ready to die just like that
The tongue is more powerful than the sword..some speaks deaf into reality for themselves
Listen to 'You're nobody till somebody kills you' thats so weird and creepy when he songs that and then he just die
Its crazy to think he died just 16 days after this interview
13*
they both mature talking bout each other , you know they got respect for each other as humans despite their feud as artists
Tupac was killed by Orlando “baby lane” Anderson after Tupac and his crew stomped him at the MGM Grand Hotel for previously robbing one of their crew members.
Suge Knight’s ex, who was pressured with serious jail time from the FBI, revealed that Biggie was killed by Wardell "Poochie" Fouse, a Mob Piru gang member and an associate of Knight.
Orlando was killed in a shootout in LA and Poochie died on July 24, 2003, after being shot in the back while riding his motorcycle.
You reap what you sew! Both of the murderers of these legends also died by guns. If you live by the sword, you’ll die by the sword.
Coach B Will not true u can’t prove it it’s a theory. Diddy had him killed
LABRON Davis haha Diddys a possibility but based on the evidence I think what I found is more accurate.
Coach B Will I agree with you 100%!
Jamille Green 🙌🏾💯💯
LABRON Davis did you not hear that Orlando uncle snitched on the interview your talking stupid
Was a tragedy for this brilliant artist to lose his life so early! He was a musical architect and invented his own brand of hip-hop. One of the greatest to ever do it!
Biggie never really got to reap the fruit of his hard work and art. He never got to truly enjoy the benefits of fame, money and power and the impact his music had on culture.
Though we still feel the ripples of his life, music and legacy today, it’s heart breaking that he never got to live it and see it.
One love B.I.G.
That "Life after Death" was so real because Biggie pasted away before the album came out. I remember i was in the hospital waiting for my oldest daughter to be born. When Biggie left us March 9th and my daughter was born 12:04 am March 10th. That was the first time I seen life leave and come into the world on that level.
I said a prayer for Biggie and his family that night. Rest easy Biggie and 2Pac.
I remember watching the notorious movie with my mom when it came out and I thought biggie was so old, I’m now 26 and showed my 25 year old girlfriend the movie and some clips and stuff of biggie the other night and I completely forgot he was only 24 and it blows my mind how young he was!
How many people STILL loves Biggie???
forEVER
Every body.
Who doesn't?
He's one of the greatest :)
Baby baby!!! #hardcorefan
It’s sad to see what MUSIC has come to...Rip Biggie❤️Thank you for your art/music. It will forever live on
Biggie was a stand up guy ... R.i.p to one of the g.o.a.ts of RAP
It really puts into perspective how young Pac and Biggie were when they died, I'm years older now than they were when they passed and I blasted their music in my teen years.
Imagine he didn’t take that 2 yr break we would have more timeless tracks from him but am grateful for the ones we do have tho🙏🏾
Strange to think that two of the best artists in the game who were beefing so hard but now their names are forever linked. R.I.P to them both
Wish everyday we can get these two back biggie and 2pac dammit now look what we stuck with now in days i love watching videos back in the day no phones no social media none of that shit
Chino Black just love and ckmmunication.
And eazy e
Connor Terry love huh the East cost and west cost stuff was love?
It’s sad to think biggie died at my age 24 years old I still feel like I haven’t lived long enough, he was taken too soon, rip biggie ❤️
Bit weird just before his death he brings out an album called life after death??
The irony
Just like how Pac signed to Death Row & was dead a year later. Power of the Words & Energy you put out

I like how he just accepts the transition where a lot of rappers try to stay instead of moving forward
Biggie had nothing but love and respect for pac.. He was more chill.. Pac was more aggressive
Tupacs biggest problem was ego and too much cocaine. The guy was so paranoid. Genius but paranoid. Biggie was always more humble than Pac. I think unlike 2pac, biggie just wanted to make lots of music and money whereas pac just took it to a whole new level of madness
@@JL-uw8xm 😂😂😂
I remember watching this interview as a kid like it was yesterday .......good ol days..
Back when Rap was Real. Not like today
Quite ironic how the album title turned into something literal.
feels so blessed that i was born in their era,real hiphop era.
R.I.P Tupac and Biggie
Kinda seemed like Biggie predicted his own death with his Life After Death especially since he came out shortly after he was murdered.
Well his first album was called "Ready to Die", released two years earlier so... maybe his prediction skills were a little off. Lol.
Was born in 97. I wish I was a decade earlier so I could've witnessed more of this Era. The 90s were truly the perfect time for me. It's always so neat how you can instantly distinguish the 90s, 80s, etc from each other.
I was born 1996
You didn’t miss much
It's better to have a loyal enemy who respects you and wishes no death on you. R.I.P. Biggie
John 13:34 says, "A new command I give you: Love one another as I have loved you, so you must love one another."
Hip hop history changed forever two weeks from this interview. Rest up B.i.G.
Breaks my heart till this day. Didn’t even get time see his dream of producing a diamond album. 24 was undisputed number 1 in the whole game. He had more messages to give us all he hadn’t even reached his true potential. Rest easy the KING OF KINGS

The world was robbed of two of the greatest hip hop artists EVER to pick up a mic 💯 So sad, RIP Tupac and Biggie GBNF 💔
Dang, i cant believe how fast time flew....... You hear it all the time, but when mega years pass, decades wise, it hits hard Crazy. I remember watching this interview when it aired the summer when I was 21 or 22. After watching it, heading out to chill with my pals and smoke up, having a good time. Now I'll be turning 50 in a week and a half, holy smokers!!! I sure miss the good ol days of my youth. Young fellows, enjoy every day, every minute of it, because time don't wait for nobody.
Rap city need too come back with real artists like back in the days miss dat Shit💯💯💯💨💨💨💨
it's like the heavens don't want perfection to exist in this world for long. two of the absolute best rappers in the business by a country mile. don't care about the other heavy hitters out there, these two were something else.
Here in South Africa a musician called Simphiwe Dana said in some interview, on the day they heard of Tupac is dead they were at school and the classes was suspended for that day coz they couldn't COPE they all cried.
A very very sad day for many💔
Can you imagine how relatable and powerful Tupac's music must have been for black folks around the world ... I'm white, middle class, and Tupac educated me about racism and the struggle blacks go through, more than a decade after his death. That man's a legend, for real.
Biggie Was Real Asf For What He Said About Pac & For Eminem To Combine A Song With Biggie & Pac Interview & Lyrics & For It To Win A Grammy Will Forever Be A Classic 💯💯💪🏽
