Allen Hughes deserves respect for finally giving Pac his proper dedication. Ppl who were friends with Pac didnt even do this. I was weary at 1st, but im pleased with how it's turned out. Respect to Allen Hughes. Long live 2Pac

Nah dude tryna profit off of Pac's name. He slimed Pac, then Pac whooped his ass. He shouldn't have anything to do with Pac out of respect.

Dope docu series

[@KM-117]

If you're still mad about something that happened 30 years ago- you got a whole lot of growing up to you. The documentary is the greatest piece of pac media since resurrection. Hands down. Salute to Allen Hughes. Long Live Tupac & Afeni.

[@notchback93]

Yeah I couldn’t have said it better all these people talking like they were there and like there opinions carry any water

[@EverythingsByDesign]

I haven’t seen this but aside from Resurrection, Thug Angel was solid. Shock G was a great story teller. Lookin forward to seeing this.

[@kylerolle5050]

I understand Hughes struggle...He expressed himself clearly and is in a mature place about he and Tupac's dynamic. He understands a lot more

[@Jimmy1982Playlists]

Having seen the first 3 episodes, _Dear Mama_ is the one of the best documentaries I've ever seen... And _Menace II Society_ & _Dead Presidents_ are two of the best films of the '90s!

[@kenk4269]

The greatest in my opinion. As a little kid growing up in the nineties him and nas were gods of the pen to me, but pac took you somewhere. He had a song for every situation it seemed like. Rest in peace to the greatest.❤💯👊🏾

This brotha made it right with this doc. A mature older Pac would've forgiven them.

[@jordanjr2555]

Crazy vibe from this because I can feel that he still feels some way bout that ass whooping because he is still getting some jabs in but I can clearly see he does RESPECT what & who Pac was. That’s speaks volumes

[@ejkboxing]

I just watched this documentary, Dear Mamma, & Allen Hughes hit a grand slam with this. GREATNESS, by him, Tupac & his mamma.

[@MarcusMaximus909]

Great interview love Allen Hughes. You can only tell pacs story in a docu series. Not movies...i live in the UK im a 54 year old man. Pac is my era...i love him and miss him he had more to do on this earth. I see him in politics i see him doing what Crump/Al Sharpton/Jessi Jackson do at the BLM mass movements and the black slayings in the USA at the hands of police. He was more than rap, or movies..he was a militant political preacher..he was By any means necessary " Malcolm X and he was also MLK. He wasnt any one thing...He was Tupac Shakur

i wanna cry listening to this man break down 2pacs last years mindset, he didn’t see and hear all he did good get credit, so he rocked out and lived it up in the end on his terms with somewhat of a vengeance on the world but his heart was still pure and going after his mission, mission accomplished Pac‼️💯That Man was a Warrior, King, a Biblical figure of our time, Thank you God for lending us your son #2pac the most relatable THUG🖕🏾🖤

[@fondel6147]

It's good that he could acknowledge where he may have gone wrong as well. It's possible that Tupac was giving him a hard time because he started to peep that the Hughes were just dealing with him at that point when it was convenient to boost their situation. Allen himself stated that they didn't truly care to work with him on his 3rd music video and MC Eiht also said the Hughes Brothers didn't really want Pac in Menace

In this interview, Allen has specifically said how they were close at one point. Yes it turned sour but the strength of a good friendship can sometimes come out the other side - sometimes it can’t though.

For the people complaining about Allen doing this project.Think about this first.Puffy had his hands on the 2Pac "All Eyes On Me" movie.Along with people who Pac barely knew or didn't know at all.Pac & The Hughes bros had a lil falling out,but I'd rather see them do a Pac project than Puffy.I honestly feel like Allen isn't going to throw dirt on the Shakur name like other's would.And besides,the real Pac fan's know what he stood for and represented.The real will always outlast the fake.Btw,I doubt if it'll be a weak project because the Hughes bros are proven & also very underrated imo.Let's give them a chance before we judge em and this might become what Pac's movie should've been.

[@aaronsewell5664]

Falling out. He kicked the dudes ass and then Johnie Cochran had to basically pull Pac off him when they all ran into each other at the elevator in the courthouse due to the lawsuit that stemmed from the initial ass whooping in the first place. And for those that didn’t know that is why 2Pac was not in Menace 2 Society.

[@reefk8876]

Puffy had the first doc? Damn! Pacs estate truly fucked off his legacy with that and all the weird remixes on his albums. Allen Hughes did a great job on this series though. Finally.
