djvlad You really need to get Crooked I back on here again, since it's been a while since you've interviewed him, and ask him about what it was like working with Organized Noize when working on Kurupt's 2nd album.

[@basedlogic9955]

djvlad vlad never heard of BoyzNtheHood

[@Dalis856]

djvlad he right NOBODY really knew Pac before Bishop. Facts!!

[@2cents2]

2pac said it himself that after the movie he truely found who he was. Looking people in the eye & saying how he felt.

[@shenyaet7286]

2 Cents Pac also said his mother taught him that at an earlier age 💯

[@aminatak1985]

@@shenyaet7286 yes he just got out to the world more after juice

[@dboi4952]

Tupac’s first album came out in 1991. Juice came out in 1992. If you listen to “2pacolypse Now”, you will clearly see that Tupac was Tupac before he was Tupac.

[@jaymoney6233]

Agreed.It's not like he was pg-13 or a square on 2pacalypse Now.Pretty much the same content just way more political on 2pacalypse.

[@weworldwide1348]

well, the movie was filmed while he was still working on his album, but anyone who knows about his DU days will tell you Pac was wylin on that world tour they were on BEFORE he even landed the role of Bishop. Shock G has spoken on him and Pac getting into huge arguments on a regular basis that usually ended by either Pac screaming at the top of his lungs, "I'm off this tour!" or Shock firing him. Pac would calm down and all would be cool again, so this whole Pac became Bishop thing ain't really true. Plus, Money B has also said numerous times that Pac would be ready to fight 10, 20, 30 or more people if he felt disrespected.

[@woopsooo1725]

If you was smart enough you’ll know that it actually take almost a year for a movie to get filmed including editing and many other things that go into it. So he probably was filming the movie and working on his album all at once

[@dboi4952]

Woop Sooo it takes just as long for an album to be released you stupid idiot

[@woopsooo1725]

dbo I no it don’t you never heard the stories that Tupac was workaholic? You can record a whole album in a week 2 songs a day all he had to do was get the cds made and put in stores and a album release date

[@EddieisKrueger]

I always say this about Tupac. He saw the respect he got after playing Bishop. He finally got that street cred he longed for. It was a act that he never turned off after that. Same with James Dean in Rebel Without a Cause

[@treondousjackson5238]

James Dean didn't change, he was always who he was but with Pac it's different he went out like Heath Ledger

[@bayonne85]

[@comics-on]

Tupac said quite explicitly that this 'baptism' happened after he was beat up by the police. He was happy, successful, had a movie out and releasing music and thought he had elevated himself away from the issues that affect ordinary black people. That beating is what darkened his heart. His family and closest friends also noted that as the pivot point. Khalil was around Tupac for a few months maybe ? How are we taking what he says as truth when Tupac himself stated in interviews and his music what his issues were.

[@UltraJamZHD]

Title makes it seem like he's calling Tupac a fraud. The way he broke it down makes sense and is a fair assessment though. Still a click bait title though.

[@delanomartin8633]

[@mauricesantinomf]

I kinda keel salty that he got to smash Regine 😂😂😂😂

[@mdchannel3543]

Tupac was always raw, but I think he really became "Thug Life" Tupac after getting beat up by the police in Oakland.

[@treondousjackson5238]

He did, he created the 2pac persona after juice and that's when he built his thug image and displaying it on himself through tattoos, piercings, jewelry, clothing, the shaved head, bandana and talking about all that street shit in his music and speaking on things that was going on and after he got beat by police he changed and began making a reputation on the streets.

[@westlaclede]

This interview is more Pac than khalil

[@missac270]

westlaclede Exactly. There was so much more he could have asked.

[@Officialtemaloveless]

You watched the full version?

[@westlaclede]

yes i did. he only asked a few questions about him. everything else is about pac. he did the same thing with lil meech. he asked him more questions about his pops than he did about him.

[@juris789]

Ofcourse, VladTV is all about big subjects, celebrities. VladTV viewers don`t even come here for this person as much as for another great side story from the history of 2Pac. It`s even cool to have this interview as Khalil Kain doesn`t seem to be a big screen star even in 1990`s, you know.

[@kingponche]

Tbh this will get him more now so he is kind of right for asking more about pac

[@krystalbrown7888]

Based off stories from rise that knew him, he was wild before that movie, but I think what made him worse was not the role, but when those cops beat him, which was around the same time he filmed Juice.

[@jiggysjungle948]

That’s a fact anybody that was around PAC knows that when we sat in the room and watched juice for the first time Tupac’s eyes lit up the whole movie and when we walked out of that room he was no longer Tupac he was Bishop

[@babywizardkelly166]

Wicked , since then he been in a role as bishop but disguising as 2 pac .it’s like bishop took over his body

[@ED-jd2hx]

I hate that people be saying that pac stayed into the bishop character.. they tripping... they fail to realize that pac life was real and got realer after juice ...pac was passionate about everything in his life... thug life was a lifestyle not just an act..

[@frankdees507]

Thug life was an album title he tried to continue living even after leaving the studio

[@saucebaby9833]

So dope that you guys interviewed him

[@tlig]

Even though Vlad clearly has an agenda I am glad people who knew Pac are talking more honestly about him now. I followed his career closely (his final few years in particular) and the dude was seemingly in self-destruct mode. And he had himself to blame for that.

This was great answer to that question ! He's very intelligent

[@dirtyface-capone7622]

Khalil Kain was just a nicca Pac worked with a for a brief moment of time.There's articles out there by Shock G & Money B that contradict this "He became Bishop" nonsense.Money B was the first to audition for Juice.While in a group/script reading, he said the character Bishop actually reminded him of Tupac, so he told Pac to go audition for the role.People are some simple simon muthafukkaz who love a good humbug.The "Tupac became Bishop" storyline is such a juicy/intriguing storyline, but it's nothing more than an urban legend.Do your research.Pac was always a live wire who talked shyt to cops.He grew up in a family consisting of radical black militants, in the ghetto, with a mother addicted to crack.How people try to turn him into this "Carlton Banks turned Bishop" character is sheer laziness & ignorance.You're just going with the romanticized/sensationalized/ mainstream storyline like the rest of the herd.the masses are asses! From what I've heard, Pac didn't really fukk with his Juice co stars like that.Only when they were on camera/promoting the movie.The only 2 he had a somewhat cool relationship with was Omar Epps and the guy who played Steel.The rest of them niccaz was simply coworkers.I wish my cowrkers would try to act like they know me like that.I take Shock G/Money B's word over any of these Hollywood niccaz looking for air time/legitimacy by mentioning Pac.They knew Pac waayyyyyyyy before there was even a Juice.They both say Pac was wild/crazy BEFORE there was ever such a thing as "Bishop".If anything, Bishop became Pac.That's why it's such an iconic role.Had it been anybody else, shyt wouldn't have made the same impact.He was a natural for the role because he already had the anger/charisma in him to pull it off.Only difference is, Bishop was a sociopath.That's where the acting came in.Pac was already 90% Bishop before he even stepped on set.

[@derrickhowardjr3872]

Man bro I get tired of people speaking on shit they don't know about. Half of these people commenting aren't even into Pac like that. 2Pac was a multidimensional person.
