They also adopted one of my aunts who was in a orphanage growing up and she said she didn't like Larry but loved Roger Troutman who would make sure she had a good Christmas every Christmas in the orphanage.

He actually participated in setting Eazy E up at the hotel where Suges guys met him instead. Dre also broke a mans jaw in a studio, attacked a police officer and stabbed someone in a scuffle all in the early days of Death Row. Dre doesn't bring up these incidents much but he was also shot.

People forget that Pac time in prison made him come out angry. He was shot and left for dead in prison. 2pac said it in his last interview. He was pissed off.

[@88K-d6h]

I also think the fake rape, prison, shooting all caused him to have extreme resentment. Pac been around gangs since forever but he never strongly associated with any. I kinda feel like those things inadvertently pushed him to become strongly affiliated. Like if none of that stuff happened I feel like he would fw them like he did with the crips he was with.

[@stevenbrown6956]

Dre shouldn't have told dude he was going to take care of his contract situation. Dre was scarred shitless around that time and wasn't going to do anything to irritate Suge.

“He came at the friend role in the beginning, like we were buddy’s, you know what I mean, so I always thought he was looking out you know what I mean, but then that kind of showed me, he’ll let me take the beat down like Sneed, so I started thinking differently” ~ J-Flexx on Dr Dre Dr Dre also set up Easy E too.
