Ah yes, the true authority on all global matters.

Laugh all you want to chief, but try researching what I'm saying before you dismiss it...

Now did the government have interest in Death Row? Im sure rap fans would like to think the government thinks as highly of Pac and Biggie as we do.The days when Hoover was actually running $!*! black music was at its apex in american culture until hip hop. So was the FBI infiltrating Motown? They had way more of an affect on the black community. Wheres the book on that?

Im sure there is a book out there on that. The book this thread is based on isn't limited to hip hop either, did you even give it a chance? It mentions  But we don't need a book to tell us what we see with our own eyes.

Listen to the last couple of minutes of this interview. (can't embed from this laptop)

"God willing, I don't die..."

damn. I know it's been said 1000x before, but just imagine if this man Tupac had a platform like the internet / blogging / video blogging in the early 90's.

What a shame

If you changed "Death Row Records" into "Mainstream rap" then it would make more sense. And yeah, it worked.

You really think Eazy E was chilling with George Bush Sr. as a joke and promotion? You think they would let his black !#* in the white house to make a mockery of them? It's realer than some of y'all think...

That was the first thing that came to mind when I read the thread title

This stuff is really interesting to me but of course we'll never know if it's 100% true or not

Do both of YOU know what you're talking about?

dudes are so quick to dismiss everything that goes against what they fell is "the truth". Notice how I put the truth in quotes that is because what you believe to be the truth could just as easily be a lie as what I believe to be the truth, but at least I'm willing to look at other things and use my own reasoning to decide what is real and what is a lie.

doesnt j edgar hoover have black roots in him ? i read somewhere he did. and he was a gay too. maybe he should have worked on himself before workin on others.

I remember watchin the doc. Biggie & Tupac, really didnt share anything new, but all I know is this...FEDS had pics of Biggie literally MINUTES before he was shot.... SO you cant tell me you see this guy getting clapped and you don't have a powerful camera or anything to identify who got him. I mean we all know Amir did it but to deliberately let him off??!?! Wheres the justice in that?

True spit. Drake said it best, they "hear but they don't listen."

You act like Drake was the first _ to say that in a song
