Poleon is double talking here~Rewind it~he just said; that Pac was not a gangbanger, he was about business~which is accurate. Yet in the beginning he was talking smack about bloods & crips, which he knows is ridic. Just because Pac came into an environment from another place, & these "gangs" we're interested in him, does not mean Pac was in association with them in that same gang~ related way. It's a bunch of bull crap! He was never in a gang, nor was he ever in a position to choose it. Which btw, to this day, peeps all around still are clueless to the interpretation Pac meant with "thug life". Poleon for some out of this world reason did always have this fascination with Compton. Don't know what the deal was~😕 I'm glad Poleon turned his life, & style around~& still has a heart for what he has overcome. Haters still hate though. Truth is, like it or not, there will never ever be another Pac. No one ever needed to understand him. But there should be enormous respect for all that Pac accomplished in his short time on this earth, & how he gave, left, & busted open doors & new avenues for anyone wanting to follow in his footsteps 👣. I know, because there are still peeps in this Industry that have been trying to catch up to him for the last 30 year's. Rest easy our Prince; &*My Handsome Caramel Chunk of Pie!* 🎈❤

It really wasn't a gang situation w/Pac. He had issues w/Bad Boy. Puff Daddy (not Diddy) put a bounty on Death Row necklaces. Orlando Anderson just so happened to be from the set that did bodyguard protection for Bad Boy & was a direct rivaling Crip of the Mob Pirus, who were predominantly affiliated w/Death Row. Orlando & those SSCC saw a rival Mob Piru slippin @ the mall, tried to take dude necklace & it was on. So it was a coincidental situation in which entities rolled w/gangs. Pac was after anything Bad Boy, Mob was after anything Southside Compton Crip. They caught the guy slippin in Vegas. So it looks like a gang situation but in reality, it was just a beef between 2 moguls & REAL street figures were placed in it. It's a dangerous situation. Never mix business w/pleasure
