Suge was wrong but from 6:36 to 6:50 & 7:03 to 7:17 , Suge wasn't lying either about Puff overshadowed his artists. I never forgot what Mark Curry said in his book "Dancing With The Devil" that Puff charged his artists $30,000 to appear in their videos. Puff even charged his artists for using his Bentley in the videos without their artists knowing. I went WHAT?!!! Then that famous argument .Puff had with The Lox on Angie Martinez show when The Lox said "The only person that benefited from the success is you Puffy". Then let's not forgot how Puffy ripped off his artists. Then Gene Deal exposed how Puff ignored the warnings of threats against Biggie which made people think Puff might had set up Big's early demise. So sadly Suge knew what was Puffy's intentions all along.

[@TRivera13]

Puffy is a scumbag, no debate there. But Suge being a hater doesn't mean he was right. Cause Suge had no problem putting his fat head front and center on Death Row promo materials. Had no problem putting his name and his name only on the bottom. Like he actually rapped a verse or produced a song. He tanked a $100 million dollar company because he wanted to play gangbanger godfather. He's no better than Puffy.

Suge was right on spot about diddy, always annoyed me the fact that diddy couldn’t just stay in the backstage, always jumping around in every single one of biggie’s videos.

[@ropete33]

Snoop said that when they got backstage they were told because of what he said they would let them walk out of there. But they had to go now.

[@herbertscott9575]

Screw the drama...let's watch in awe at all of these classic hip-hop acts. When we say the 90s were a superior time for hiphop....each and every artist mentioned here is cemented in that energy and foundation...and this was just mid 90s before Canibus, Big Pun, Dmx, Jay Z, Cash Money, No Limit, Emenim ECT. Great times😊

[@chrisleaf]

Suge was right about that MF Diddy

[@randallross420]

Love or hate him, that picture of Suge is iconic

[@randallberron4901]

That was real what 300 said the south have some thing to say East cost always hated on the south

[@ChrisJProductionz]

Cause NY always felt like they were the best, they only saw themselves…if you weren’t from NY you were considered “trash” in their terms which haunted them later because the South took over later on

[@BrianYerby-he9jo]

Facts when we actually listen to there music

[@kennyboudreaux1657]

I call it the curse of Andre 3000! He said it and the south stil got something to say and they've been saying it and running hip hop since 1998 at least.

[@AtlantaPrin]

And when Atlanta grab the industry... It ain't never let it go

[@EmilioCorrales813]

How you gonna forget OutKasts moments here too, they caused some controversy here as well

[@kaaronhudson8112]

And people thought PAC wasn’t about that life

[@Amidat]

Well Pac is a Bronx dude - so not surprised he wanted to hold down a Bronx dude like Tim Dog.

[@Bobe_Kyrant.42]

Yea. I heard about another time he pulled a gun on someone too, . And when the LA riots happened he went riding around shooting his gun in the air lol

[@VisitPuntaGorda]

Nothing been the same for all there back then to witness

[@SideShoANT]

OutKast had the biggest impact that night 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@andyanderson6295]

the music was amazing 😔

[@Standard-Gamer]

Suge was speaking facts and his speech aged so well but people didn't wanna hear it at the time.

[@lexkanyima2195]

But it was really a edgy time.

[@newera5238]

I grew up during this era, and mannnn 😅 the HipHop tension was very REAL at the ‘Source Awards’!

[@mainerbates1590]

Dj Quik came at Tim Dogg on way 2 funky factz

[@akaLids77]

I was there. At the source awards that day. I won tickets from HOT97. Me and my cousin were there.

[@MsDisneylandlover]

I did like snoop how he delivered that crazy message lol 😂 hot crazy stuff.

[@BeaMode1990]

The night that everything went straight to hell. I watched this live with my cousin & it was definitely some shit. 😩😩😩😩

[@gdk626]

And funny Puff said this shouldn’t be about East vs West. But he started the comment about I was born in the East and I’ll die in the East.

[@marcusmckinney6153]

Yoooo what cube said at the end really hit.

[@googleaccount1276]

Shout out to King Son who wanted to rush the stage when Suge dissed Puff😂 .

[@juanmasday2896]

The Good old days man Golden Era of hip-hop!

[@wobblertv8083]

Golden Era era 86 to 94 in my book .

[@ZapRowsdower47]

BONE IS MIDWEST AND WE WAS ROCKING EVERYTHING BEFORE EVERYONE, OVERHAULS, CARHARTS, BEANIES, BOOTS, CAMO, AND THE DIRTY SOUTH BECAUSE WE WAS BOTH COUNTRY.

[@muzikmyke3008]

This generation will never understand how real this beef was back then. These were my middle school years and I remember it like it was yesterday.

[@Rschr101]

Exactly, a bunch of adults acting like middle school.

[@uniquefreak13]

I love how (unknown at the time) with this being a monumental moment in hip hop, Suge still stutters at the beginning 😂

[@Amidat]

because Sugar Bear was never really a tough guy

[@uniquefreak13]

@@Amidat dude... The comment is 7 months old... Why bother?

[@KP43-08]

See this is the part where nobody wants to discuss the East Coast and West Coast been taking shots at each other before Tupac & Biggie beef. when they beef started that’s when it just lit the fire and gasoline turned out the way it did.

[@palmereldritch4166]

I remember being in my teens, getting those iconic magazines right when they came out ..... If we all only knew then what was going to happen.....

[@justinnulai365]

Stop wasting time. Tupac is the man who will be remembered the whole time... who's with me 2024?

[@LamboBen931993]

The bit about the intro on ready to die is wrong 😂

[@deanrichards5223]

The second track samples little ghetto boy off the chronic doesn’t it?

[@bruceleeds7988]

Yeah, the rappers of this time lov to talk about how much the media messed up things, but this night was all us

[@_Mr.Tuvok_]

8:24 That’s the heaviest “nah” I’ve ever heard

[@eivindgjengstjohansen9625]

LMAO

[@kay-collins]

How you gon talk about this night & how it changes hiphop without naming Outkast??? That probably all changed hiphop more than literally any thing else because the south has had the game in a chokehold ever since..

[@devious187]

With all the bullshit from this show, Outkast stands out... The South got something to say

[@kingofkings89pl]

That was a point that lead it to death of Pac & Biggie & many athers.
