MC Eiht On Suge Knight Being Responsible For 2Pac’s Death and Being a Bad Influence On 2Pac.

[@lancekyles1628]

I feel MC eiht 1000%, I always felt like Pac died from his loyalty to Suge and not because he was trying to be a gangbanger. Loyalty was very important to Pac. His beef with Big started when he felt Big knew he was gone be shot at Quad studios and didn't warn him. Pac had beef with Snoop before he passed cause he felt Snoop did not have his back after Snoop went on hot 97 saying he loved Biggie and Puffy and that Pac was the one with the problem. Pac fell out with Dr. Dre after he felt he was not loyal to Snoop during his murder trial.

Heard this story many times but for the first time I really get it. Imagine you're in prison preparing to do years and someone puts up a two million dollar bond, gets a serious lawyer involved in your situation, flies you out to L.A., gives you the keys to a Rolls Royce and puts thousands and thousands of dollars in your pockets. This is all before you've made a single dollar for them as an artist. Yeah...that would make you loyal.

Sho u right Suge seen something in him that no else saw a STAR & $$$ he should of protected his investment better that night at the casino if he would of just put his hands up to tell pac no we leaving let the dude who chain got snatched handle that ish because Orlando was by himself he should of handle that by himself but was scared to do it so got pac and Suge all hyped and got pac killed and Suge went to jail over a chain and what I like to know is what happened to the dude that was crying about his chain getting took??? where he at??

MC Eight is a real G. If Tupac had hung around him, he would still be alive today because MC Eight has been in the streets, gang affiliated and was able to duck and dodge the drama. Suge was reckless and that's why Death Row was taken away from him and why he is where he is today. Notice Tupac is the only key figure in that circle that lost everything including his life, yet he had everything to live for. He'd probably be running as a political candidate by now and would win!

[@jasonjames5076]

Yes sir I agree... But the fact that when pocket out of jail he went to the studio that night and started recording hit after hit after hit, which turned into straight gold for Suge... And as far as the loyalty thing... Suge Knight did not bail Tupac out of jail because of loyalty... He did it because he saw a golden opportunity.... Potentially one of the greatest rappers that could be, in a vulnerable position, that he could exploit do his own maximum of benefit... And yes I bet Suge Knight was very nice to him as long as the Golden goose was laying golden eggs... Had nothing to do with loyalty to by Tupac... It's called friendly extortion... What do you think would have happened the second are Golden goose stop laying golden eggs?... Clearly Tupac must have realised what was what... Why would he be loyal to that?... I don't believe Tupac did what he did because of loyalty... I think he trying to be the physical representation of all the tough stuff he was rapping about, thug Life... And that was his opportunity to physically manifest the thug life that he was rapping about and believed he was apart of.... Only the retard didn't stop to think, that's the most dangerous people in the world are the people with nothing to lose... All those people have is their manhood they're in their reputation, and if they'll all lose that they'd be a zero basically... So no matter what that was coming back to him, might I add that most paybacks of this nature are 10 fold whatever you're paying back... And Tupac punch someone in the face, and in return he got shot four times, and died bleeding out and gasping for breath in the middle of the road in the arms of a cop, the people that he hated most... Good Notice Suge Knight had him in his presence at all times?... Or as much as possible?...

@@CakeFace86 It appeared Suge did that because he could live vicariously through the Mob himself. From what I hear, he kinda paid his way into the Mob and didn’t come up in the gang like most people so. Suge was smart, educated and came from a two parent home, but he likely was entitled, being a D1 football player, and later connected with celebrities, connected with a gang behind him, probably made his entitlement become dangerous.

True but we also are responsible for our decisions no matter what. Being 25 or younger won’t stop the accountability to what you do, if he were to be the one killing instead of being killed he’d still be held accountable for his actions rightfully. That’s just what it is.

@@rawwslap Thanks. I learnt the hard way, got burnt for being naive or for myself preservation & worth to myself ... our empathy & self worth to ourselves tends to drift us to people who only care to use people when they need who they need to solve their shit. some thing i call chewing gum paradox; it is only useful when it is still sweet.

It's a fact what 8t speaks about loyalty. I remember asking tha neighborhood big homie why he fcked wit tha "Hood Drunk" so tight and he said when tha Drunk was respected and "Up" at one point in life he asked him for a dollar or two because he was broke and hungry. This was in the 1980s btw, he said tha Drunk went in his pocket without asking any questions and gave him 20 dollars. He's still loyal to tha Drunk to this day!

[@elMaxx5]

Classic example of a leader following a follower. Loyalty for money (should) have limits.

[@gastonneal724]

Loyalty is one of the only things more valuable than money.

Money makes you blind though..😛

@@rgtwergf I would say, careless and confident, even when you shouldn't be. Money doesn't move everybody. That was our strength when we were communist/socialist. The Black Panthers, Kwame Ture, WEB Du Bois.

[@moniquenewman4889]

I like MC Eicht. BUT the answer to the first question was SUGE a bad influence on Tupac ? The answer is definitely YES!! 100 %. Suge was ultimately a gang leader, he was a gang leader more than a business man and those gang politics was ultimately what killed Tupac. And Yes, Suge got him out of jail, Yes, he gave a job, and a car, and house etc.. and Yes, anybody would have took that deal in those circumstances. However all money is not good money. And on a side note Tupac's bail was 1.4 million dollars. The cost to bail out on a million dollar bond is 100,000. He said 2 million in the interview. Story been told so many times that the numbers get confused I guess. But Suge was definitely a bad influence on Pac because when he got with deathrow in less than a year Pac was dead! It seems like Pac was there for a long time, but nope only about 8 or 9 months. Then on top of that, Suge was robbing him. Tupac 's money was supposed to go to his mother Afeni. She said in an interview Suge didn't give her shit!!!!!!!!! He was NOT a good friend, He wasn't even a good MAN. But every dog has it's day and that's why Suge is in jail NOW!!!! Lost everything, the company everything!!! So for Tupac although he made his own decisions as a man it's a case of hanging with the wrong crowd.
