I just wish so many werent two faces around Pac during his Death Row era. Saying they allowed Pac to have their song then they throw shade in Interviews. I never heard Quik ever throw shade Pac's way. So he gets some respect for that. It's too bad Quik and Pac never did a whole album together. Would have been a classic.

[@naaimshareef]

@bigc713ful But to be fair to Dre Quik did say that Dre said to him he need to use that idea which of course as we know was not a original idea of Quik the idea came from Ronnie Hudson's West coast poplock hook. From Quik's own words Dre inform him that he wanted to use the idea of that hook Ronnie Hudson's West coast poplock hook for a song. Now i agree with you that i don't understand why Quik was mad at Pac for saying/rapping about Rosencrans & long beach on Calfornia Love just because he wasn't from Compton.

2Pac was unalived in 1996. The PlayStation 2 (PS2) is a home video game console developed and marketed by Sony Computer Entertainment. It was first released in Japan on 4 March 2000, in North America on 26 October 2000, in Europe on 24 November 2000, and in Australia on 30 November 2000. It is the successor to the PlayStation, as well as the second installment in the PlayStation brand of consoles. As a sixth-generation console, it competed with Nintendo's GameCube, Sega's Dreamcast, and Microsoft's Xbox. It is the best-selling video game console of all time, having sold over 155 million units worldwide, nearly triple the combined sales of its competing consoles. So obviously Quik meant the original PlayStation. The PlayStation (abbreviated as PS, commonly known as the PS1/PS one or its codename PSX) is a home video game console developed and marketed by Sony Computer Entertainment. It was released in Japan on 3 December 1994, in North America on 9 September 1995, in Europe on 29 September 1995, and in Australia on 15 November 1995. As a fifth-generation console, the PlayStation primarily competed with the Nintendo 64 and the Sega Saturn..
