--------
In this clip, Chuck D speaks about meeting 2Pac when he was on tour with Digital Underground, and he revealed that he witnessed 2Pac meeting Treach when Queen Latifah brought him on tour with her. After speaking about seeing the kinship and bond they formed, Chuck addressed not letting fans wear gold chains to their shows. He explained that after seeing people get robbed or beat up for wearing a gold chain to the show, they decided that for the fans' safety they were no longer going to allow them to be worn at venues. Chuck also shared a story of buying a bag of fake gold chains and throwing them out at the shows, which he admits obviously caused pandemonium. To hear more, including how he was a mentor to many artists, hit the above clip.

EVERY SINGLE TIME Vlad asks someone who knew 2Pac about Pac, smiles are the first reaction. Pac must have been a one in a billion soul, RIP GOAT

If you noticed what Treach said he implied that Orlando Anderson didn't kill Pac. Treach implied during that skit that the "FEDS" both killed Pac & Biggie.

Treach one of the few real ones man. He was a true ride or die homie for Pac. Anything Treach says on Pac you might as well take as Gospel. But people keep asking him about Pac he's gonna get mad all over again every time and you gonna notice bodies on the streets right after. Between Treach and Tyson......people gotta watch what they say.

Tyson is a bitch he didn't knock out wack 100 when he had too.

It reminds me of the Key and Peele skit where the rapper was trying to walk out of the interview and he got himself tangled in the cords on the way out

[@ytubeanon]

I miss the way hip hop and alternative music shared a similar anti-materialist message, there used to be nothing worse than being a 'sell-out', now it's the height that hip hop aspires to there is an argument to be made about building wealth in black communities to prevent outside agendas of pure greed, but on an individual level the display of wealth is empty, vacuous and vain

[@hadbl12]

So true..... how quickly they forget!!

[@shagw4286]

2 days ago, they arrested 5 ppl for the murder of the rapper Pop Smoke. Earlier in the day he was killed, he did and Instagram post, he was in a vehicle friend who had stacks of cash in his hand, he showed gift bags, and he gave the address where he was in the Hollywood Hills. Nothing was taking, so it must have been a hit.
