@Shawn Kemp Religious texts, in all their antiquity, are newly revealed to many people each and every day. Is the Book of Pac in the Bible? No but not everyone knows everything.
died? That nigga ain't dead! Check him out on "Jurrasic 5" along with a few other "Outlawz" members,that faked their deaths also! Oh,by the way,Biggie is there too. th-cam.com/video/oWq-69k_LRs/w-d-xo.html
Nigga was 25yrs old at the height of his profession if he ain't figure it out by then he was never gonna figure it out nigga was a grown ass man moving like a teenager
MrWARBUCKS24 at 25 your still figuring out life and then put that with the fact your constantly in the public eye. Ppl fuck shit up in everyday life at that age and have shit to figure out now switch sides and your known worldwide. Most ppl would’ve found themselves in the same fate.
FINALLY! MC Ehit is a legendary artist and storyteller! I'm so glad you guys sat down with him. THIS is a MUCH better fit for him, because you all do fantastic interviews. I'm really not trying to kick up any dust, but I'm glad he got a 2nd shake at telling his story because it's hard to see such an amazing storyteller trapped in a Vlad interview. Thanks again! I'm looking forward to the full interview.
Terron Hastick I don’t think he was fascinated necessarily because his previous crew Thug Life was mostly CRIPS. It’s just that 2pac was so down for thug niggaz that he just couldn’t do some shit like avoiding all the Pirus on Deathrow. 2pac wasn’t the type to do some lay his vocals and then dip to some mansion in Hollywood and never kick it with the hood niggaz. 2pac’s personality wouldn’t allow that.
Terron Hastick you have a point tho too. 2pac was loyal to a lot of people and he often got the short of end the stick. In his 96 interview with sway he told a tale of how biggie and his crew left hella guns in the hotel room and 2pac took the charge for them! This when he was cool with biggie and Junior mafia. He was giving them train fare and let biggie sleep on his couch 😂😂 so yeah you’re right about the loyalty thing.
He’s very right ..Pac thought that there was strength in numbers, so a group of young brothers that had the potential to be united and do some good..was something that grabbed him. He didn’t get into any religious groups because he felt that they had a stench of corruption because many of them were seeking political acceptance which Pac was pretty much anti-government in its historic representation of the people. So he was naive to think that he could form a new black kingdom out of violent beginnings. He underestimated the jealousy and the fact that to them, he was either Crip or Blood..so the most prolific rap artist of all time..at just 25yrs old, a living legend) was taken away from us like a common gangbanger!! Sad
Tupac was as much of a gangster as Nellie Olson! That little fucker was no gangster. Good writer. Not a tough guy. It was all an act. Back in the day he was saying shit that youngsters wanted to hear and if he was alive today he would saying things they NEED to hear.
Yea and when talking boute Cali we often forget 2 remind folks not from the soil Oakland & LA is like two different worlds.Im from East Oakland its more Pimpin,d boy hustling reppin yah block,and of course its uh lotta culture and woke cats cuz its home of The Black Panthers.The only cats gang bangin colors in The Town is the mexicans and a small population of asians but the brothers aint with the color shit Oakland 2 much of a trendsetting city 2 where it never caught on we on our own hype. Its kind of dope how diffrent the bay and LA is though.
@Shawn Kemp As intelligent as he was, I'd have 2 agree with U whole heartedly! Tupac didn't have 2 represent the bloods at all or claim MOB😕 I love him and all, but that was a dumb move yo....
Tupac was trying to organise gangs. It's easy to sit there and say he was trying to gang bang when he wasn't. Out his own mouth he said that. He told you all in the Sway interview what he was doing. He mentioned through out his whole career how he thought gangs could be turned positive and be organised. He mentioned in the Malcom dinner speech that gangs that were killers had to go. He was campaigning from neighbourhood to neighbourhood to try and do something about the violence. He was not scared to take gangs on, he did it for Treach, he did it to them dudes who killed that kid etc. Pac had more heart than any of these haters. Let the lad rest in peace.
Tupac was destined to be a leader. Still after his death, people are following him. Spice 1, MC Eiht! Thank you Eiht for sharing your thoughts! Love you guys
Boss Gold He think it's ok ro gangbang out West. People out there always tried to avoid that life. Eiht thinks all West coast cats are born in it. That's not true. It's a myth out there
Mr Wright Sr he clearly was talking about pac as a friend and someone who knew him. Stop making it seem like he was criticizing pac, he only said pac didn’t have to live that life
Suge ain't grow up it that life. He wasn't born in that life neither. He played sports and should've went pro. Both them brother's should still C here. RIP Pac but he wasn't no Mob or Piru
The problem is passing judgement on a man neither one of us knew. I don't mean in the same way Snoop knew him either, his blood relatives and Jada know Pac. Everyone else are just friends, acquaintance's, and admirers.
@Jason Cross No, his baccground was more so the Blacc Panthers/revolutionaries which is more respected. That's why Pac could get a gun blast shots at the cops like he did.
PAC was young. Just turned 25 when he died. He was still growing up. And he said himself if he had a father in his life he wld of been more discipline. He was lookin for love in all the wrong places at death row. But he really wanted to get out of there. He thought he was done after he did the albums he was obligated to do. He wanted out.
Not having a father around dosen't excuse ur behavior. Learn how to be ur own man, ur own leader, ur own role model without looking for that in somebody else.
So that means I was smarter than pac at his age I grew up around gang banging and never claimed a set. People love to say how smart pac was but he became a follower when he went to Deathrow. Not facts Truth
Think it could've worked for Tupac as Caine because originally Caine was supposed to be a lot worse. Also, he already knew Jada very well and they would've had better chemistry on screen
I think you pointing out Tupac's issue. I totally forgot Jada was in MENACE II SOCIETY. That was Tupac's homegirl in Baltimore, and some other dude got the part to interact with Jada?! It wasn't just about the gangster role. I believe, now, it was about Tupac being Caine. The brotha who was intimate with Tupac's homegirl.
@@atribecalledlen3567 In the original script, Caine was supposed to be just as bad if not worse than O-Dog. They had to change it around because they thought it was too hardcore for America so they softened Caine up a bit and made O-dog the crazy one
@@jknumber5138 no doubt Tyrin Turner pulled it off but just imagine the whole movie again but with 2pac as Caine.

Add to that all the improv and adlibs 2pac would've added to the film. It would've been way better with 2pac as Caine
@@tupd how is he doin it for clout when dj vlad was the one who first asked him that question because he already interviewed other menace 2 society cast members on 2pac and Eiht spoke his thoughts on the matter.
I'm a die hard Pac fan and MC Eiht is right. Pac getting caught up with gang bangers really led to things playing out the way they did. Can you imagine if Pac would've lived and was still around today? Hip Hop would be totally different
I think a big reason was the trauma caused by almost getting murdered and being sent to prison. Pac needed to feel safe, whatever the cost, consciously or unconsciously
The legendary MC Eight always keeps it 100% throughout his entire 28yr career and it felt good seeing him resurface and keeping it real at the same time
Black Zodak still got the cd! Found it in a pawn shop on the east coast for $6. Was like they must not know. Two rows down found AMG-bitch betta have my $...same price. Felt like I was stealing.
@@TeflonMarthaCause shallow Hip Hop Head he had great marketing after his death with multiple documentaries, movies , put together albums of his old lyrics & mostly everyone not having their own opinion & running along with word of mouth. Pac was barely mentioned in ppls to 10 during 92-95.
A 100% agree with EIHT! I’m a big fan of PAC’s work but I’m a bigger fan of his work before joining Death Row. I personally believe he would still be with us if he stayed in Oakland with Shock G and Digital Underground. Still making movies and music. The world would’ve been a different place. RIP PAC!
Exactly, he should have stayed with digital like they was tellin him, then later sign to Ruthless Records instead of Interscope and then become a wu tang member instead of Deathrow
Because he wasn't immersed in the banging like that in that time. Big Syke didn't put him on the set, Suge was cool with him tattooing MOB and getting way more involved then he should've
MC Eiht should write a book about stories in hip hop...he's like one of those wise old storytelling cats who'll spit some knowledge in the neighborhood...
2pac made his moves based off how he felt and he knew he was gonna die at an early age and did what he did.....opinions of another man no.matter how close you was to that man will never matter on who he was or be judged on what he did.....he went all out and still brought a light to the world r.i.p 2pac
Salute to Eiht always keeping it real. Pac was young 1st of all. Pac was loyal, he was moved around a lot. He had no roots. He had no family structure. If u asked him where hes from, its where hes at. Its either NY, Baltimore, The Bay, or LA. And here he is in jail, confined , a little scared, lonely , etc and here comes Suge not anyone else to bail him out. Now suge is definitely not the best guy to be around but he helped alot of those artists. Helped Dre get out his shit, helped Snoop not go to jail, and many artists on death row. Suge saved alot of people. So here he comes with his MOB family to bail out pac. Man the rest is history. Pac was just loyal to who came and got him out that situation. If suge was a crip, he would have repped that. Now should he have not been on the front line, hell no. And like Mob James said Suge should have protected him more. Hes the golden ticket. Hes worth more $$ than everyone else. Let the goons handle that. But telling Pac to chill was very difficult at that time. Honestly he was safer with DU but like i said Suge was the one who bailed him out so he had to roll with them. Stay in jail or sign a 3 album deal? You can say what you want but Everyone on here is taking the Deal with Suge
Pac was a follower he wasn’t loyal he was dumb! Snoop was his boy and was right to leave death row and so was Dre why because suge knight was a ass hole ( you see where he at now) .pac diss snoop and Dre! That’s not loyalty that’s betray !
I see some of us cant see the forest for the trees...his energy somewhat changed the lives of alot of gangs through his music. Yea they were banging hard but they had Pac when they needed that ghetto gospel. It's a blessing to be around someone who inspires you in the toughest times of your life. He seen the faults he addressed the problems and the gang culture changed because of him. You get close enough to a good spirit it will leave its scent on you. He was smart enough not to go head first. Never be afraid to show who you are to those who needs the light.
I agree with 8 100% pac felt like since Suge reached for him & put him back on that he felt obligated to be all the way down with the Death Row Movement until he started looking into his finances & shit wasn't adding up pac was kicking out Double disc albums everyweek while he was under contract with Deathrow & probably didn't even own his Master's too his own Work that he put in so now he's in it too deep to just walk so let's just kick out how ever many albums agree upon & let me do my own thing like Dre did let's face it pac wasn't going to stay with Deathrow and Suge spoon feeding him too Death & loyalty got him knocked he was in too deep with the movement R.I.P. Pac one of the greatest too ever bless the Mic!!!

Exactly, he should have stayed with digital like they was tellin him, then later sign to Ruthless Records instead of Interscope and then become a wu tang member instead of Deathrow
Stay in Oakland? He was in jail
MC EIHT always told good stories...even in his albums.. listen to him in 1992...
Two Hip Hop Legends M.C. Eight And Talib Kweli!!!
Before Shug bailed him out, Pac was running with Crips. Thug Life had active Crips in the mix. How come no one speaks on that part?
Because he wasn't immersed in the banging like that in that time. Big Syke didn't put him on the set, Suge was cool with him tattooing MOB and getting way more involved then he should've
@@gpproductionz Exactly.
@@gpproductionz right
8 kept it 💯, as always. Mad respect!
Great respect for you mc.8 that's the first person who ever said something intelligent in regards to pac's downfall; salute to you mc:8
Ice-T had said basically the same thing years ago as well, but Eiht told it better.
This how you know Pac a legend. I want people to be talking about me like this 20 years after my death.
he certainly didn't die like legend
@@thdoom81 He died like Abraham Lincoln. Guess Lincoln wasn't a legend either? Idiot
MC Eiht should write a book about stories in hip hop...he's like one of those wise old storytelling cats who'll spit some knowledge in the neighborhood...
Great pod cast. Visually on point.
Facts! Tupac should of just stayed Tupac. Good interview!👍
Finally, someone telling how it really is. I've been thinking the same thing since way back then
🙏
2pac made his moves based off how he felt and he knew he was gonna die at an early age and did what he did.....opinions of another man no.matter how close you was to that man will never matter on who he was or be judged on what he did.....he went all out and still brought a light to the world r.i.p 2pac
I agree💯
Talib bringing the right guest on to the show to get my attention 💪🏾
GEAH!!!
Growin' up in da hood!

That was a straight up master class. Much respect due
Streiht Up Menace 😎
SALUTE KWELI & MCEIHT FOR THIS INCREDIBLY HONEST INTERVIEW.WOW!!!!!!
Salute to Eiht always keeping it real. Pac was young 1st of all. Pac was loyal, he was moved around a lot. He had no roots. He had no family structure. If u asked him where hes from, its where hes at. Its either NY, Baltimore, The Bay, or LA. And here he is in jail, confined , a little scared, lonely , etc and here comes Suge not anyone else to bail him out. Now suge is definitely not the best guy to be around but he helped alot of those artists. Helped Dre get out his shit, helped Snoop not go to jail, and many artists on death row. Suge saved alot of people. So here he comes with his MOB family to bail out pac. Man the rest is history. Pac was just loyal to who came and got him out that situation. If suge was a crip, he would have repped that. Now should he have not been on the front line, hell no. And like Mob James said Suge should have protected him more. Hes the golden ticket. Hes worth more $$ than everyone else. Let the goons handle that. But telling Pac to chill was very difficult at that time. Honestly he was safer with DU but like i said Suge was the one who bailed him out so he had to roll with them. Stay in jail or sign a 3 album deal? You can say what you want but Everyone on here is taking the Deal with Suge
Like allot of black folk that ain’t nothing new!
Well, that still doens't necessarily mean he had to be a ganster all of a sudden.
Tupac has no sense at all like Doughboy as a kid said in Boyz N The Hood.
the best explanation i have heard
Pac was a follower he wasn’t loyal he was dumb! Snoop was his boy and was right to leave death row and so was Dre why because suge knight was a ass hole ( you see where he at now) .pac diss snoop and Dre! That’s not loyalty that’s betray !
M.C. Eiht And Talib Kweli are very very underrated emcees man.
That's the duality of a Gemini!!! Outspoken, passionate, and one of kind. R.I.H. to the G.O.A.T.
No that's the reality of a struggling lost soul who suffered from bipolar, psychosis and multiple personalities
Yea I don’t think horoscopes got anything to do with that
@@TR-hp7md right
Salute for 8, on the convo. Real talk my brother
The energy you put out.................... GRIM.
Eiht dropping nothing but truth here. The perspective of an OG that's been tested and tried and been thru real hip hop/ gang beefs.
GP Productionz FACTS
Dude got destroyed by Dj Quik!
Eiht rockin the Gang Starr hoodie...dope
Man I love Eiht 🙌🏾
Eiht dropping knowledge. Speaking the truth 💯
I wish The Hughes brothers will tell there 2pac stories, i bet they go crazy...
That was actually a good interview
Tupac was one of a kind, real rebel rapper with a vision
Big up to MC Eight for telling the truth. 🙏💯👍
8 the legend🙌🏽
I see some of us cant see the forest for the trees...his energy somewhat changed the lives of alot of gangs through his music. Yea they were banging hard but they had Pac when they needed that ghetto gospel. It's a blessing to be around someone who inspires you in the toughest times of your life. He seen the faults he addressed the problems and the gang culture changed because of him. You get close enough to a good spirit it will leave its scent on you. He was smart enough not to go head first. Never be afraid to show who you are to those who needs the light.
Thank You Tupac is what they should be saying!!!
This will be my video before I go to Bed. Do y'all believe we once had 2Pac and Mc Eiht at their height at 1 time??
Nice hoodie! Truly underrated!
I agree with 8 100% pac felt like since Suge reached for him & put him back on that he felt obligated to be all the way down with the Death Row Movement until he started looking into his finances & shit wasn't adding up pac was kicking out Double disc albums everyweek while he was under contract with Deathrow & probably didn't even own his Master's too his own Work that he put in so now he's in it too deep to just walk so let's just kick out how ever many albums agree upon & let me do my own thing like Dre did let's face it pac wasn't going to stay with Deathrow and Suge spoon feeding him too Death & loyalty got him knocked he was in too deep with the movement R.I.P. Pac one of the greatest too ever bless the Mic!!!
Agree
Damn that was so true. Such an underrated artist. Respect
Buster! Straight Buster CJ!!
That's right! Rider fo' real! Reppin' Grove Street!
Eiht Hype Thug, G, its good to see you doin well.
