It's like now when rappers get killed, people mourn for a few weeks and then go right back to the norm. But I remember when Pac and Big got killed, it's like hip hop stopped. And the impact is still being felt. For those of us who remember, we still get chills. Shit crazy
Being from Cali and living there when Pac died it felt like the state / earth mourned him the sky was red and the day was just off when biggie was killed it was a different energy it seemed like a different air about things but the sad truth is everyone had pretty much understood who killed Pac it just wasn’t spoken about or mentioned it was like a embarrassing but sad reality of the Cali politics
Oh so true!! My daughter had an episode like that at a small club a few years ago. She had a bad feeling and wanted to leave. After she left a young man was shot and killed that night. I think he was only 17 years old😢
Big was really dumb calling the streets against Death Row during the New York New York video shoot and expecting no retaliation in the west considering the nasty relations between puff and suge...
Well tuapc wanted to be hood do stupid shit to get himself in these type of situations u go jump a well know killer from a hood and tell me if u survive pac was never that hood smart and thats what happen got smoke dby baby lane
@@jonathangonzalez2666 Biggie situation was even worse in my opinion because he didn't put his hands on anyone, he was just at the wrong place at the wrong time and a victim by association.

@@ShawnDemarcoEntertainmentyou're right. Shot on 7th and died six days later on the 13th. But I get the point. Two different days when one of the greatest, Biggie, died and when the greatest, Pac, died.

This is a classic example of sometimes we really don't have friends. Young people, no not just young people, everyone trust no one. Becareful who you let into your life.

@jack crain TRUTH. I’ll take the risk of trusting people until they let me down. I’d rather live my life knowing I give ppl chances and that it’s on them if they lie, cheat, steal, etc. This mentality of not trusting people is too negative and exhausting. Plus, you’ll miss out on some genuinely good people. I used to be that way but it’s not worth it for me. Now I’m not a dummy and don’t just believe everything people say lol but when it comes down to it that trust nobody mentality is way too negative for me. And I’ve been fucked over so many times but it is what it is. Gotta weed out the real from the fake.
It's crazy to me how young Pac and Biggie was when they were killed, but to have so much going on around them, made them drop their guard, man, talk about living the fast life. RIP 2Pac & Biggie

Dj Quik was arguing with Biggie that week he died and was affiliated with suge. That why everyone was pointing at dj quik cause it clearly linked it to suge.
DJ quik, 2nd to None and everybody that was in Suga Free Video STAY READY...THEY WENT TO THE VIBE PARTY AFTER THE VIDEO SHOOT... DJ QUIK BODYGUARDS AND 2ND TO NONE WAS IN FRONT OF THE VIBE PARTY WATCHING BIGGIE
I'm a Biggie fan (from the UK), but I also rate Pac highly too. The radio announcement of Pacs death (around 3am) triggered my subconscious mind and woke me up out of my sleep and left me feeling crazy emotions. It was a dark day for hip hop globally. Then, almost a year later...same announcement with Biggie! That's when I knew, losing two of the best... hip hop would never be the same...and it sure wasn't!
I felt the same way when Pac died it was like I lost a big brother and when Biggie died was like losing a best friend....and hip hop has never been the same.... even after Master p took over
No disrespect but 2Pac taught Big the game. Both of these men are very talented and shouldn’t have went out the way they did. Mr Wallace a father and Mr Shakur a father to a lot boys, girls , and men that didn’t have a father. People looked up to Mr Shakur. Children today still sing his music in the streets during the George Floyd riots… it blew my mind that these kids today love 2pac…
nothing against Big but big didn’t put out alot of conscious music like Pac..Pac would of made a bigger impact because o think after he would of got these suckers like Puffy out the way he would of started a vlk political party to help empower blk folks
@@fruitpac there would be no Jay in pac was still alive. Pac talent far exceeded that of Jay. We talking about rapping, movies, directing, producing etc etc.

I'm not sure of your age but that album was gonna buss big💥💥💥 even if Biggie never promoted the album fully, and he definitely did not need to go to LA!💯 in that climate😒 Back then if the music was at a certain standard/quality, it promoted its self and people would go and buy it based on how it sounded, not just based on hype, views and likes, very much different than today's mentality, which has people moving mad🤯 and chatting fuckery like you!😤 Regardless if you like Puff or not, he failed to protect his friend or from a business perspective, his biggest asset💰 since you wanna talk bout he made him rich🤨 Really!? Move your self with them talk there!😠
2Pac and Biggie was way ahead of their time. That Era of music was the best EVER! That was real rap. They are turning over in their Graves right now about today's music. And I still say till this day. Half these people making music wouldn't even be known if they was here. Pac said himself when he dies his music will still be hitting!
U know pac had songs he let people here and its videos on TH-cam that never was officially released. And we only know about them because of the makavelli leaks.
Pac was actually an Actor first, that rap stuff was second. After Pac did the movie *Gang Related,* Pac was supposed to play the role *Jedi Master Mace Windu* in *Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace.* 2Pac was also gonna play the role *Captain Steven Hiller* in *Independence Day (ID4 1996)* but bc Pac got killed, they gave Jedi to Samuel L Jackson & Captain Steven to Will Smith. It's sad we didn't get to see him be the face of Hollywood. He was about to blow & be much bigger than just his rap career.
Hearing all of these recaps about that time from the 90s Hip-Hop alumni after all those years is heartbreaking. A lot of artists and actors seem to have survivors remorse. Having many years to mature, marry, raise families and wisely reflect shows the pain that these people have now realize they hold. Two young men (among countless others) lost their lives over nothing.
DJ Quik new the same dirty cop that killed Tupac was going to kill Biggie on 9 March 1997 and DJ Quik was happy two of the biggest artist where being killed so other artists can come through and DJ Quik thought he could take Tupac and Biggie crowns 👑 👑 as kings of the game !!!!
Suge Knight blind self is punching the air right now knowing what he did to Biggie and Terry Carter and will never see survive to see parole. Hip hop greatest Karma.
When you hear stories about PAC and Biggie no matter how many times you hear them just know that’s how real shyt was when these two people existed in hip hop. Shyt was real. If you said something out of pocket on Monday yo’a$$ was gon get checked by Tuesday. Catch my drift?…
What does telling everyone “ I’m from NY “ before saying Gipp deserves his flowers suppose to mean? Big deal! Who cares your from NY? So what!! Nobody knows you here
@@I_be_e That jus pissed you off huh! Might not be your cup of tea but Live n Let Live my man. Somebody's comment on where they from or what they do shouldn't get to you like that, and if it does thats a "YOU" problem.
frfr, think it's cause he gave more context on the things that was really going on, like them shooting up Guru car. That's what put it into perspective for me.
I remember after Big passed LA and really Westcoast music scene just seemed like a turn off. Tbh TV shows, Cube movies and the Lakers seemed like the only positive things from LA. Besides that the vibes were shady and grim. Glad it picked up🙏🏾
that was really the only thing that made the west start dropping off in popularity. it would still be a few years before the south came in and took over but after that like you said, people kind of turned away from all the blood/crip stuff in the music. how ironic that all these years later we ended up with the Wayne's, Cardi's, 6ix9ines and everybody else bringing all that stuff back in smh.....
Ain’t nothing changed wit LA. Look at Nipsey n PNB Rock. That’s a dark city to be in if you’re in the streets. Better off going to Disneyland and the tourist sites.
I wanna hear a interview from D rock biggie's homeboy or the driver to the suv big was in, cause we haven't hear nothing from him ever. If Art of dialogue can get them up here it will be something new.
D-rock works for puff, as a bodyguard. I saw a picture of them together at a costume party, dressed as Prince and Company. So I doubt he's going to give a testimony. He's on the payroll.
driver had to be in on it or know why not drive away or anything just sits there bullets fly or think he jumped out of car and on diddys part gene says run the lights or puffy does why would u even do that if u didn’t know somthing was going too or gonna happen so just suss af diddy set that sht up wanting his money from big since he was planning on leaving bad boy
Honest even though many years had passed since they both been gone you just think damn it's so messed up how from 1994-1997 a lot of crazy things happened to them. It's unfortunate that they were young and got killed .Still till this day i still feel the pain from hearing how they both got killed.
We still gotta remember pac and biggie was only 25 years old, which is crazy cuz you would of thought they was older. But biggie was definitely playing with fire by coming to LA at that time. Especially him not knowing the LA politics.
I've heard a lot of accounts of what took place but this was probably the realest way I've ever heard it. Just a real shame we lost these two brothers.
back then album were already pressed and folks had copies of they own shit letting magazines and other artists sneak listen before the LABEL put it out
Alot of New Yorkers & Up North people love 2 Pac too.. It was mainly the New York Rappers that tried to team up & go against Pac but Pac wasn't even mad at all of New York Rappers, alot of them was just haters & jealous of Pac
@@quentinsimpson5908 We can’t factually say Quik was involved but he I’m sure he was aware. It wasn’t a secret that certain people were out lurking around LA waiting for the perfect chance to kill someone from Bad Boy.
@@morganwingo he was humble, he had a pure heart for real and cared about the people for sure. I hugged this man…. We had no phones back then so i only have my memory of him.
All those cats in Goodie Mob - good people. Non thugs, just musicians and good hearts. Southern. Raised well. You will never see any of them ever have any problems like this.
@claudebanks9170 right no one arguing, this is footage that don't come on cnn,fox, youtube allows us to hear from of our people. TH-cam wasn't available in 1996 for us to hear Big Gipp telling us what he witnessed.
Big was hurt and probably knew Puffy had a hand in 2Pac's killing. I miss both 2Pac and Biggie, rap would be soooooo much better of they in their 50s were still rapping.
Back then it took way longer to get things recorded and put out because you had to deal with the labels and real distribution/manufacturing... today things are digital so u can put things out in real time with no middle man
Never forget the west coast took BOTH of them out. Pac ain't get smoked on the east. The industry said later for you west coast ninjas. If they wasn't affiliated with Dre they didn't get no light out there. I often wonder what 2Pac's response would be if Biggie went out first. He had a lot of hardcore things to say about Biggie so where do you go after that? Would the expectation be that he would all of a sudden have good things to say about him? Biggie was the most famous out of all his targets. It's like literally what do you do from there? Saying all that why would the expectation be of Biggie to say anything remotely good about Pac after his demise? It's an unfortunate situation that both these men's lives had to come to an end in that manner. I don't think Hip Hop has recovered from both to be honest.
Great comment. Its just that Biggie and Puff was in Pacs Backyard. I do understand Biggie staying quiet though after all that drama, It just was not wise to go to LA. I think if Big would have passed 1st Pac nem wouldnt be in New York without expecting some kind of violence..
I always wondered what made Puffy and BIG think they could be in LA talking about I'm going back to Cali 6 months after Pac got killed... it was so obviously gonna be considered disrespectful.
Yes they did FOI HAS ALOT OF ROGUE PEOPLE IN IT I HAD A EX MANAGER THAT USED TO WORK FOR DIDDY STILL DO AND HE TRIED TO BLOOD SACRAFICE ME I SURVIVED NOW HE'S LOOKING AT YEARS WITHOUT SEEING THE SUN JUST LIKE DIDDY NOW HE WANTS TO TALK AND MAKE THINGS RIGHT NO DEAL I WANT THEM BEHIND BARS THEY DESTROYED A GENERATION BEHIND FOOLISHNESS AFTER BIGGIE AND 2PAC THEY STILL ON DUM SHIT.
I'm not gone front as a teenager I felt like them going out there parading around was a celebration... I don't feel like they were sad about Pac's death 😔
It's like now when rappers get killed, people mourn for a few weeks and then go right back to the norm. But I remember when Pac and Big got killed, it's like hip hop stopped. And the impact is still being felt. For those of us who remember, we still get chills. Shit crazy

I'm a Biggie fan (from the UK), but I also rate Pac highly too. The radio announcement of Pacs death (around 3am) triggered my subconscious mind and woke me up out of my sleep and left me feeling crazy emotions. It was a dark day for hip hop globally. Then, almost a year later...same announcement with Biggie! That's when I knew, losing two of the best... hip hop would never be the same...and it sure wasn't!
Almost a year? It was 6 months

I felt the same way when Pac died it was like I lost a big brother and when Biggie died was like losing a best friend....and hip hop has never been the same.... even after Master p took over
@@JourneywithJesus14367 That's really bro. The energy was crazy hearing the news of both deaths 😪
No disrespect but 2Pac taught Big the game. Both of these men are very talented and shouldn’t have went out the way they did. Mr Wallace a father and Mr Shakur a father to a lot boys, girls , and men that didn’t have a father. People looked up to Mr Shakur. Children today still sing his music in the streets during the George Floyd riots… it blew my mind that these kids today love 2pac…
Gipp the definition of a "Real One" and that's FACTS!👑

Goodie Mob “Still Standing” album - Recorded
July 1997 - February 1998. Biggie died March 9, 1997.
U do know that some artist keep some songs in the vault?
Not only that, but they were cool with Bad Boy and Death Row. So it's likely that they were showing each other tracks were going to make the album
U know pac had songs he let people here and its videos on TH-cam that never was officially released. And we only know about them because of the makavelli leaks.
Yea when did Black Ice come out?
@@hitek9too255 It released on " Still Standing" LP in 98' technically, but they recorded it back in 97'
I think if pac was alive he would have been a very big movie star..
Bigger than Cube and Will Smith much respect to them
Pac was actually an Actor first, that rap stuff was second. After Pac did the movie *Gang Related,* Pac was supposed to play the role *Jedi Master Mace Windu* in *Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace.* 2Pac was also gonna play the role *Captain Steven Hiller* in *Independence Day (ID4 1996)* but bc Pac got killed, they gave Jedi to Samuel L Jackson & Captain Steven to Will Smith. It's sad we didn't get to see him be the face of Hollywood. He was about to blow & be much bigger than just his rap career.

Hearing all of these recaps about that time from the 90s Hip-Hop alumni after all those years is heartbreaking. A lot of artists and actors seem to have survivors remorse. Having many years to mature, marry, raise families and wisely reflect shows the pain that these people have now realize they hold. Two young men (among countless others) lost their lives over nothing.

Wow I'm surprised he never told this story before.
When you hear stories about PAC and Biggie no matter how many times you hear them just know that’s how real shyt was when these two people existed in hip hop. Shyt was real. If you said something out of pocket on Monday yo’a$$ was gon get checked by Tuesday. Catch my drift?…

I heard this story a 100 times, but some how Gipps version sounds more graphic, real and more believable
frfr, think it's cause he gave more context on the things that was really going on, like them shooting up Guru car. That's what put it into perspective for me.
Big was out here in Cali mocking Tupac death on the radio. It was mad disrespectful for him to be rapping Long Kiss Good Night.
I remember after Big passed LA and really Westcoast music scene just seemed like a turn off. Tbh TV shows, Cube movies and the Lakers seemed like the only positive things from LA. Besides that the vibes were shady and grim. Glad it picked up🙏🏾
that was really the only thing that made the west start dropping off in popularity. it would still be a few years before the south came in and took over but after that like you said, people kind of turned away from all the blood/crip stuff in the music. how ironic that all these years later we ended up with the Wayne's, Cardi's, 6ix9ines and everybody else bringing all that stuff back in smh.....
Ain’t nothing changed wit LA. Look at Nipsey n PNB Rock. That’s a dark city to be in if you’re in the streets. Better off going to Disneyland and the tourist sites.
The industry black balled LA artist for years after that
Indeed 🎯
Yep that's exactly what happened 💯
They definitely did and that allowed the south to get the title
It took Dre and The Game to bring the West Coast back.
Pac wasn’t a LA artist 2pac was a Bay Area rapper mobin living in LA on death row for eight months .
I wanna hear a interview from D rock biggie's homeboy or the driver to the suv big was in, cause we haven't hear nothing from him ever. If Art of dialogue can get them up here it will be something new.
I doubt that he will ever do an interview on this platform
D-rock works for puff, as a bodyguard.
I saw a picture of them together at a costume party,
dressed as Prince and Company.
So I doubt he's going to give a testimony.
He's on the payroll.
D Rock, was in Puff's pocket. Read what Geve deal said about him. F*cking🐍
Drock a snake
driver had to be in on it or know why not drive away or anything just sits there bullets fly or think he jumped out of car and on diddys part gene says run the lights or puffy does why would u even do that if u didn’t know somthing was going too or gonna happen so just suss af diddy set that sht up wanting his money from big since he was planning on leaving bad boy
'Long Kiss Goodnight ' felt like icing on da cake to that said celebration too; I was like, 'These dudes just don't care'
He should've neva rapped that song on cali radio ...neva...
Honest even though many years had passed since they both been gone you just think damn it's so messed up how from 1994-1997 a lot of crazy things happened to them. It's unfortunate that they were young and got killed .Still till this day i still feel the pain from hearing how they both got killed.

Shouldn’t have been out there not physically 100%. The same energy Gipp is describing never left LA. They moved on Nipsey the same way.
We still gotta remember pac and biggie was only 25 years old, which is crazy cuz you would of thought they was older. But biggie was definitely playing with fire by coming to LA at that time. Especially him not knowing the LA politics.
You got that half right. Biggie was 24 and Pac was 25
I've heard a lot of accounts of what took place but this was probably the realest way I've ever heard it. Just a real shame we lost these two brothers.
I definitely blame puff for that!!!! He shouldn’t have even had that man out there that early
Part of that story sounds off the album with Black ice on it didn’t release til 98 remember it like it was yesterday

I wouldn't say LA died in 97. Just 2 years later Dre and Snoop were back on top of the game.
The city never recovered. Those guys were already established.
That was probably a set up
Yes it was, but they were celebrating 2pac's death.
Real shit gipp.. tell it how it is & not how it suppos to go.
Rest easy Pac and Biggie
Black Ice came out June 1998. Did Cease get to hear it months in advance? Over a year before it came out actually.
Albums are done way before they come out. Some albums get finished and come out a year or two later.
Back then it took way longer to get things recorded and put out because you had to deal with the labels and real distribution/manufacturing... today things are digital so u can put things out in real time with no middle man
I was wondering the same thing
I was thinking the same thing I think Gipp got it confused with another song
If you look in the linear notes inside the cd cover it says recorded 1997-98 at LaFace Studio among other studios
Never forget the west coast took BOTH of them out. Pac ain't get smoked on the east. The industry said later for you west coast ninjas. If they wasn't affiliated with Dre they didn't get no light out there. I often wonder what 2Pac's response would be if Biggie went out first. He had a lot of hardcore things to say about Biggie so where do you go after that? Would the expectation be that he would all of a sudden have good things to say about him? Biggie was the most famous out of all his targets. It's like literally what do you do from there? Saying all that why would the expectation be of Biggie to say anything remotely good about Pac after his demise? It's an unfortunate situation that both these men's lives had to come to an end in that manner. I don't think Hip Hop has recovered from both to be honest.
Great comment. Its just that Biggie and Puff was in Pacs Backyard. I do understand Biggie staying quiet though after all that drama, It just was not wise to go to LA. I think if Big would have passed 1st Pac nem wouldnt be in New York without expecting some kind of violence..
