Whoa! Biggie behind Pac's Death?

[R DUNN]

The article is from the LA Times and spreading like wildfire. An established writer from the paper is naming Biggie as the man behind 2Pac getting shot in Vegas. It says he was in Vegas too that night and offered to pay the Crips to do it. Man if this has any truth to it, I see more heads rolling. I also see some lawsuits coming towards the paper too.

Part one of the article is on the LA Times site: www.latimes.com (http://www.latimes.com) now with part two on there tomorrow. I think Sohh.com and some other sites have the whole article posted though, look around.

Video clip of the writer talking:

let both just rest in peace bringing up bad blood is never positive.why start up know when the industry is doing battle on the mics instead of the streets. :p

I wonder if it is a plot by the LAPD, government or whoever. Ever since the whole incident the LAPD been gettin bad press period all kinds of corruption shit uncovered. I am just wondering if they launched this shit so it can go back in the streets so niggas can start killing eachother again over this east coast vs. west coast beef.

I feel you mitch, but we're talking about murder, which for some reason we like to sweep under the rug while two people are dead. This being unsolved give power to any one who beleives in controlling people thruogh terror. The fact that they were rappers is just part of it. I loved listening to both rappers but deep down we know that both were caught up in the game.

As for battling on the mic ONLY, If brothers didn't learn from the Biggie VS Pac Disaster, then Rap has lost validity in it's part of raising a street countious generation giving us a voice to be heard and understood. Intead, rap has just brought us to the streets and kept us there.

Trust me fellas, all this bullshit that's going on is crazy, a lot of niggaz are speculating about what happemed and for now, I don't really see it ending for a long time. I guess y'all know that Lil Cease and Charli Baltimore have given alibi's backing up BIG, that's kinda crazy because their giving alibi's to a dead man, it's fucking crazy, I just hope we all find out the truth sooner rather than later.............

[What! What!]

Yeah I think it`s crazy how the LA Times reported that article. They mixed together bullshit with evidence. Why would a crip talk to a reporter. Plus what 6`3 300 plus black man can sneak in a city and have no one see him. It`s sort of easy to cooberate if he was in Vegas or not. Plus why would he pay a million dollars. Banking records are easy to check...plus Biggie wasn`t exactly Bill Gates and had a million dollars sitting around. Then the killers only took a $50,000 payment? What is this a credit card? He was allowed and trusted to make 20 payments. He should have shopped arond then it could have been done for $10,000. Plus if Orlando Anderson was the triggerman why didn`t he kill Suge...he was involved in the melee at the hotel also. Suge is a rather big target to miss. I wouldn`t be surprised if Suge pad some dudes to goto the reporter. I mean do Crips carry an organizational card?

I was disgusted when I heard that story...and some people will believe it just because they didn`t like Biggie...and because it was in the "paper".


I forgot to mention him using his own gun. I mean that`s a good story but who would do it. It`s sort of corny....here use my gun. So if the dude`s caught the gun goes back to Biggie. Why...that`s smart? The LA Times must really want to pay Ms Wallace some money. I hope that the got a lot of new subscribers off of this story. That is poor journalism...I can`t believe any editor approved that story.

They are having a special on MTV Tuesday at 11 talking about it.

I think it`s sad how mainstream media is covering it...it kind of gives the story more credibility...if someone sees it on CNN. It really hurts rap music and black people. Hopefully more people look at the bigger picture and don`t take it at face value.

i think what people need to do is sit back and watch from the outside lookin in..... i read the article and i have a few comments 1) how could big be in vegas and no one not see him at all? 2)biggies from the streets and giving someone your own gun to shoot someone even if u hated them is plain f***ing stupid.3)isnt it convenient that big's mother just so happened to file a law suit against the lapd a couple months prior for not finding out who killed her son..... well actually the head detective on the case concluded that the people involved were lapd officers but he got taken off the case after his investigation because of his findings...... imagine that their star detective w/over 20 yrs was wrong........ so what would send mrs wallaces claims to deaf ears ...the fact her son was involved in a murder.... think about it that whole case wont go forward now because now the murder case will b invesigated....... game recognize game...hayb
