Everybody seems to focus on the service level but don't pay attention to the puppeteers engineering this west/east coast fued between Bad Boy/Death Row. Those puppeteers are David Kennar and Clive Davis who set back watched all this mess unfold while making uber millions seeing hip hop being slowly destroyed from within. Divide then conquer has been the ultimate chess play made by these puppeteers which no one's paying attention to the shadow figures pulling the strings in the background. Hip Hop is a billion dollar industry and it's unfortunate that Puffy & Suge Knight couldn't see that they were being used as pawns to engineer a Conquer then Divide strategy to ultimately be destroyed. Now Death Row & Bad Boy records are both basically defunct along with the rap industry.

He knew all he needed 2 know!!! I disrespect Jimmy which was a no no!💪🏽💯

[@tjswann3768]

They knew but couldn't speak on it. I believe puff knew for sure. Him and Annnndreee.

[@sevenclickent.5745]

FACTS

[@chuck9380]

I thought one of the guys that robbed him at quad said he was paid a couple thousand by Puffy. Even stole PAC ring and gave it to his girlfriend lol

[@BabsW]

Nobody's gonna mention what Kirk did at 1:59 after mentioning Suge's name?

[@PlatinumBoyEnTV]

Art u definitely gotta get a Wendy Day interview, good people

[@mr.chambers4823]

Next episode, Art: So my man, in the song "Long kiss goodnight" when Biggie said "I'll make yo mouthpiece obese like Della Reese" was he talking about Puffy?

😂

[@dariush3587]

😳

[@observelearn2345]

This dude just literally told the story that everyone knows

[@deshawndon2583]

I see you the only one up on game I said the same thing reading through the comments that's all he doing is repeating the s*** that everybody already know like he heard pretty much I don't think he was there and around like that

[@RTBOY954x]

you know this tho have u ever seen any of this kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWW7g2p7r9GNeLc

[@msdetrat]

Exactly!!!

[@donruga627]

@@deshawndon2583 he’s repeating it word for word. Because that’s what happened you fucking 🤡🤡

[@tommykreed]

U people are morons

[@dietracurvey7487]

@Terence Decker THANK YOU! For years people from NY have tried to paint this picture that Biggie was so above it, and the beef was all Pac. BS! Biggie was involved with that dumb ass East Coast/West Coat beef just as much as Pac was. The only difference was Pac came at Biggie head on, while Biggie stayed being slick and undercover with his disses. I'm fed up with that narrative. Biggie was NOT above it, he just didn't have the balls to come back at Pac head on.

[@stephenlee3495]

This dude is a great interview.

[@joegreenz9624]

Basically he’s said the media and record companies knew that attention, drama, etc would sell so they pumped it up. He’s talking but he’s not saying exactly everything. They knew these 20ish year olds would get money but nothing compared if they were killed and could blame the artist. Like suge said he had the formula and Jimmie iovine stole it

[@visionstories2662]

I loved this video

[@Dwayne3007]

Biggie warned Pac about the guys he was running with in NY.

[@fredrey2242]

I always wondered why didn't Biggie never reached out to 2Pac whilst he was in prison. No visits or money in his books?

[@char_d.0908]

This clip was very insightful! Enjoying this interview 💯
