how hard is it to understand that orlando anderson killed him?

[M Dogg™]

Good find dogg. I tried to figure out who killed 'Pac too. I even wrote an article about it for WCKillaz. But I guess B-Please didn't like it, 'cause I gave it to him 2 weeks ago, and it ain't up. So here's what I wrote for WCKillaz.

Welcome to the last Junkyard ever.  Now I plain on still doing things for the WC Killaz, hopefully, but with my senior year in college coming, and my major taking up all my time, I will be working hard, so I’m sorry for this.  But life goes on, so on the article. Now before I get to my article, I would like you to read this rhyme from Notorious B.I.G. on Long Kiss Goodnight.

Uhh.. I'm flamin gats, aimin at, these fuckin maniacs,
put my name in raps, what part the game is that?
Like they hustle backwards
I smoke Blackwoods and Dutchies, ya can't touch me
Try to rush me, slugs go, touchy-touchy
You're bleedin lovely, wit'chyo, spirit above me
or beneath me, your whole life you live sneaky
Now you rest eternally, sleepy,
you burn when you creep me
Rest where the worms and the weak be
My nine flies, baptize, rap guys
With the Holy Ghost, I put holes in most
You hold your toast shaky, slippin tryin to break me
“Look what you made me do”, brains blew
My team in the “marine-blue,” six Coupe
Skied it out, weeded out, cleanin out –
the block for distances, givin long kisses BITCH

Before reading this, remember this is my view, and opinion, not necessarily the opinion of others at WC Killaz.

Now it is clear Biggie was talking about 2Pac, as the only rapper that put Biggies name in his raps was ‘Pac.  All the shit going about Suge having Biggie killed, I’ma show you how Puffy and Biggie got ‘Pac killed. Just read that verse.  After all, this verse was released 6 months after ‘Pac died, so why talk about a dead man, no matter the hate. Simple, Biggie was not dissing ‘Pac, he was bragging in a way that no one else would pick it up.  All that Suge had ‘Pac killed, throw that out.  First off, only an idiot would have someone killed, sit next to them, and be 3 times his size.  ‘Pac was only 5’7” and 165, so why would a man set him up when he weighs over 300 and then sit next to him.  Suge did get ‘Pac in a mess, but Suge did not do it, and all using Frank Alexander as a witness should know that he denied it too on Before I Wake. So how in the hell could someone think Biggie had a hit on ‘Pac when there is no proof.

This is where it gets good, ok, Orlando Anderson as everyone knows, is a Crip.  He stole a Death Row chain from a Blood member of Death Row, and was seen in Las Vegas.  Question, after stealing a chain from a Blood, why would you then go to Las Vegas the night of the Tyson fight, when you know that every member of Death Row would be there ‘cause 2Pac is a very huge Mike Tyson fan, and Suge Knight lives in Las Vegas and owns a club there.  Orlando Anderson was beat up when he was by himself, but really, how many gang members are truly by themselves when out of their gang territory knowing that people from a rival gang are after them.  Anderson knew people from Death Row were not happy with him, and the Death Row chain is very special to Suge, so Orlando needed a listen.  Anderson would not go to Vegas alone, as those who know the facts, knows that the driver did not shot ‘Pac, the person in the backseat did.  Kadafi said he could identify the driver, but never said the shooter.  So if Anderson did kill ‘Pac, he wasn’t alone.  Puffy and Biggie were hired the Crips for protection every time they came to Cali.  Crip gangs out number Blood gangs 3 to 1, so it’s safe to have Crip backing in L.A.  Now Anderson would not go to Las Vegas alone, or for no reason.  Someone had to pay him to go, and there had to be a reason.  A guy name Tray was the member of the Bloods who got his chain jacked.  He was the one that pointed out Anderson.  Now Anderson was a very bold man, as he had a warrant for a murder, and his family were also gang members.  Though, as I said, he wouldn’t just go into a area full of Bloods unless he had a reason.  He might have be scouting the place, seeing were everything is, and who’s around.

Anyways, the famous beat down happened, in which Anderson was beating up bad, but not killed.  Later on the strip, Suge Knight lead an large car line to Club 662, which made them very visible.  This would allow the Crips to find out were they were, since the Strip of Las Vagas, especially during a fight night, is crowded as fuck.  Still, why would Crips drive past all them cars of Bloods, and bodyguards.  It had to be more than just a simple gang warfare to go out and risk themselves like that.  They could wait until the Death Row people get back to L.A.  Well that’s were Biggie and Puffy come in.  Money is what makes people do shit that they never would.  And in Biggie’s verse above, you know his talking on ‘Pac.  He mentions shooting rap guys with a 9, and if a person was shot 5 times with a .45, he is more than likely dead.  So it must have been a 9 that killed ‘Pac, plus he mentions Coupe, and that might be to throw people off, ‘cause reportly it was a Cadillac, but early reports said either a Cadillac, or Chrysler Coupe, so who knows.  And the most important part, “My Team In The Marine Blue, Skied Out, Weeded Out, Cleanin’ Out.”  Biggie was saying right there that in fact, he had a team in blue do the job, and as we all know that would be the Crips.  Marine Blue, well the Marines are the first people into all American wars, they are the smallest branch of the military, but the most notorious.  They fought basically the whole Asain front in World War II, and Vietnam, so an elite force by far, and it would take an elite bunch of Crips to drive past all them Bloods for that killing.  Biggie was suspect in having ‘Pac killed once, maybe he did, or maybe he didn’t.  But the ‘Pac/Biggie rivalry was one of the worst feuds in hip-hop history, actually the worst.  Biggie was tired of ‘Pac running his mouth, and like ‘Pac, Biggie grew up on the streets, doing a lot of street shit.  Puffy was not streets, but he was Biggie’s best-friend, and would do anything for his biggest star.  So in that, it is easy to how Biggie would have ‘Pac killed.  And if this is all true, then is it true that the L.A. shooting of Biggie was in retaliation.  Who knows?

"A report by the LA Times plans to reveal "who they suspect killed Tupac Shakur six years ago. According to sources, the paper will implicate Christopher "The Notorious B.I.G." Wallace as having a role in the shooting of Shakur. "I hope [the paper] got good evidence...this is going to blow sh*t up," Outlawz member EDI told AllHipHop.com. The 2-part cover story will run Friday and Saturday."

[verbalassaulta]

i think m dogg has got a lot of good points....and i have a feeling it will mention big and puffy as having something to do with pacs murder...shits blowing up tomorrow...i wish i could get an la times paper some how....and someones gotta post this shit as soon as they get it tomorrow....and if the la times reports this then they have a damn good source to throw out allegations...so their will be relevance to their story

[budsmokeronly]

I don't know, I think this whole thing could just be a bullshit rumor.  Cause LA times can get sued for a LOT of money if they have false allegations, and if they have some truth, they could be sued by 2Pac's mom for withholding information.  Who knows, well find out soon enough.

LA Time Says Biggie Ordered Shakur Hit!

Posted Thursday, September 5, 2002 by Tackz
The La Times will run a story tommorow (Friday) and Saturday naming the murderer of Tupac Shakur. Below is part of the article, read for yourself.

The city’s neon lights vibrated in the polished hood of
the black BMW as it cruised up Las Vegas Boulevard.
The man in the passenger seat was instantly recognizable. Fans
lined the streets, waving, snapping photos, begging Tupac Shakur for
his autograph. Cops were everywhere, smiling.

The BMW 750 sedan, with rap magnate Marion “Suge” Knight at the
wheel, was leading a procession of luxury vehicles past the MGM Grand Hotel and Caesars Palace, on their way to a hot new nightclub. It was after 11 on a Saturday night — Sept. 7, 1996. The caravan paused at a crowded intersection a block from the Strip.
Shakur flirted with a carful of women — unaware that a white
Cadillac had quietly pulled up beside him. A hand emerged from the
Cadillac. In it was a semiautomatic pistol, aimed at Shakur.
Six years later, the killing of the world’s most famous rap star
remains officially unsolved. Las Vegas police have never made an
arrest. Speculation and wild theories continue to flourish in the
music media and among Shakur’s followers. One is that Knight, owner of
Shakur’s record label, arranged the killing so he could exploit the
rapper’s martyrdom commercially. Another persistent legend is that
Shakur faked his own death to escape the pressures of stardom.
A yearlong investigation by the Los Angeles Times reconstructed the
crime and the events leading up to it. Evidence gathered by the paper
indicates:
The shooting was carried out by a Compton, Calif., gang called the
Southside Crips to avenge the beating of one of its members by Shakur
a few hours earlier.
Orlando Anderson, the Crip whom Shakur had attacked, fired the
fatal shots. Las Vegas police discounted Anderson as a suspect and
interviewed him only once, and then briefly. He was later killed in an
unrelated gang shooting.
The murder weapon was supplied by New York rapper Notorious B.I.G.,
who agreed to pay the Crips $1 million for killing Shakur. Notorious
B.I.G. and Shakur had been feuding for more than a year, exchanging
insults on recordings and at award shows and concerts. B.I.G. was
gunned down six months later in Los Angeles. That killing also remains
unsolved.
Before they died, Notorious B.I.G. and Anderson denied any role in
Shakur’s death. This account of what they and others did that night is
based on police affidavits and court documents as well as interviews
with investigators, witnesses to the crime and members of the
Southside Crips who had never before discussed the killing outside the
gang.
Fearing retribution, they agreed to be interviewed only if their
names were not revealed.
The slaying silenced one of modern music’s most eloquent voices — a
ghetto poet whose tales of urban alienation captivated young people of
all races and backgrounds. The 25-year-old Shakur had helped elevate
rap from a crude street fad to a complex art form.
Tupac Amaru Shakur was born in 1971 into a family of black
revolutionaries and named after a martyred Incan warrior. Radical
politics shaped his upbringing and the rebellious tone of much of his
music.
His godfather, Black Panther leader Elmer “Geronimo” Pratt, spent
27 years in prison for a robbery-murder that he insisted he did not
commit. Pratt was later freed after a judge ruled that prosecutors
concealed evidence favorable to the defendant.
Shakur’s stepfather, Black Panther leader Mutulu Shakur, was on the
FBI’s Ten Most Wanted list until the early 1980s, when he was
imprisoned for robbery and murder. His mother, Afeni Shakur, also a
Black Panther, was charged with conspiring to blow up a block of New
York department stores — and acquitted a month before the rapper was
born.
Shakur grew up in tough neighborhoods and homeless shelters in New
York and Baltimore. He exhibited creative talent as a child and was
admitted to the Baltimore School for the Arts, where he studied
ballet, poetry, theater and literature.
In 1988, his mother sent him to live with a family friend in the
San Francisco Bay Area to escape gang violence in Baltimore. Living in
a tough neighborhood north of Oakland, he joined the rap group Digital
Underground and signed a solo record deal in 1991.
Shakur’s debut album, “2Pacalypse Now,” sparked a political
firestorm. The lyrics were filled with vivid imagery of violence by
and against police. A car thief who murdered a Texas state trooper
said the lyrics incited him to kill. Law enforcement groups and
politicians denounced Shakur. Then-Vice President Dan Quayle said the
rapper’s music “has no place in our society.”
Shakur’s recordings explored gang violence, drug dealing, police
brutality, teenage pregnancy, single motherhood and racism. As his
stature as a rapper grew, he pursued an acting career, drawing
admiring reviews for his performances in “Juice” and other films.
But he never put what he called the “thug life” behind him.
During a 1993 concert in Michigan, he attacked a local rapper with
a baseball bat and was sentenced to 10 days in jail. In Los Angeles,
he was convicted of assaulting a music video producer. In New York, a
19-year-old fan accused Shakur and three of his friends of sexually
assaulting her.
While on trial in that case, the rapper was ambushed in a Manhattan
recording studio, shot five times and robbed of his jewelry. Shakur
later said Notorious B.I.G. and his associates were behind the attack.
Shakur, convicted of sexual abuse, was serving a 4 1/2-year prison
term when he was visited by Suge Knight, founder of Death Row Records
in Los Angeles. Knight offered to finance an appeal of his conviction
if Shakur would sign a recording contract with Death Row.
Shakur accepted the offer and was released from prison in 1995 on a
$1.4 million appellate bond posted by Knight. Hours later, Shakur
entered a Los Angeles studio to record “All Eyez on Me.” The double
CD sold more than 5 million copies, transforming Shakur into a
superstar.

[DookieMowf49]

On Sept. 7, 1996, Shakur, still out on bond, traveled to Las Vegas
to attend a championship boxing match between Mike Tyson and Bruce
Seldon at the MGM Grand Hotel.
The sold-out arena was jammed with high rollers . The fight also
attracted an assortment of underworld figures: mobsters from Chicago,
drug dealers from New York, street gangs from Los Angeles.
Shakur arrived around 8:30 p.m. accompanied by armed bodyguards
from the Mob Piru Bloods, a Compton street gang whose members worked
for Knight’s Death Row Records. Shakur and Knight sat in the front
row, smoking cigars, signing autographs and waving to fans.
“Knock You Out,” a song Shakur had written in honor of Tyson,
blasted over the loudspeakers as the boxer entered the ring. Tyson
flattened his opponent so quickly that many patrons never made it to
their seats.
After congratulating Tyson, Shakur, Knight and a handful of
bodyguards in silk suits headed for the exit. In the MGM Grand lobby,
one of Shakur’s bodyguards noticed a member of the rival Southside
Crips lingering near a bank of elevators.
The hoodlum standing in the lobby was Orlando “Baby Lane”
Anderson, 21, a Crip who had recently helped his gang beat and rob one
of Shakur’s bodyguards at a mall in Lakewood, Calif. Anderson had a
string of arrests for robbery, assault and other offenses. Compton
police suspected him in at least one gang killing.
After the beating of Shakur’s bodyguard, Anderson had dared to rip
a rare Death Row medallion from the man’s neck — an affront to
Knight’s honor and a slight to the Bloods.
The Bloods had been fuming for weeks, waiting to exact their
revenge. Now, unexpectedly, there was Anderson, standing before them.
Shakur charged the Crip. “You from the South?” he asked.
Before Anderson could answer, Shakur punched him. His bodyguards
jumped in, pounding and kicking Anderson to the ground. Knight joined
in too — just before security guards broke up the 30-second melee,
which was captured by a security camera.
Shakur and his entourage stomped triumphantly across the casino
floor on their way out of the hotel. They walked half a block down the
Strip to the Luxor hotel, where Death Row Records had booked more than
a dozen rooms. After dropping off Shakur and the bodyguards, Knight
drove about 15 minutes to a mansion he owned in a gated community in
the city’s southeastern valley.
The plan was to regroup later at a benefit concert for a youth
boxing program featuring Shakur and other Death Row acts. The midnight concert was to be held at Club 662, a nightspot just opened by Death Row. The club’s name was an emblem of how gangs had infiltrated the rap business. On a telephone keypad, 662 spells “mob.”

A bruised and shaken Anderson gathered himself off the floor in
front of dozens of startled onlookers. MGM security guards and Las
Vegas police tried to persuade him to file a complaint against his
assailants, but he declined.

Anderson headed out to the Strip and crossed over a pedestrian
bridge to the Excalibur Hotel, where he had checked in with his
girlfriend. News of the beating swept through the gang underground.
Before he reached his room, Anderson’s pager was beeping with calls , according to what he later told associates.
Anderson phoned his comrades and set up a meeting at the Treasure
Island hotel.

By the time Anderson’s taxi reached the Treasure Island, more than
a dozen gangsters were holed up in a Crips-reserved room. Marijuana
clouded the hallway. Alcohol was flowing as Anderson opened the door. The gang was furious. The topic of discussion: Who gets to pull the trigger?

According to people who were present, the Crips decided to shoot
Shakur after his performance at Club 662. The plan was to station two vehicles of armed Crips outside the nightspot and lie in wait.
For the Crips, the beating of Anderson was an egregious affront
warranting swift and fatal retaliation. Still, the Crips thought, why not make a little money while they were at it? They decided to ask Shakur’s biggest enemy to pay for the hit.
The gang arranged a rendezvous with Notorious B.I.G. The Brooklyn
rapper, whose real name was Christopher Wallace, hated Shakur and had been feuding with him for nearly two years.

Once tight friends, the two entertainers now ridiculed each other
at events, in interviews and on recordings. In one song called “Hit
’Em Up,” Shakur bragged about having sex with Wallace’s wife and
vowed to kill him. The threats between the rappers and their labels,
Death Row and Bad Boy Entertainment, escalated into a series of
assaults and shootings — one of which resulted in the killing of a
Death Row bodyguard in Atlanta in 1995.
Fearing for his safety, a friend of Wallace arranged for the Crips
to supply bodyguards for the rapper whenever he traveled west. Over
the years, the gang was paid to provide security for Wallace at
casinos in Las Vegas, clubs in Hollywood and award shows in Los
Angeles.

Wallace began flashing Crips gang signs and calling out to the
homies at concerts, sometimes even inviting gang members on stage.
Privately, he prodded the gang to kill Shakur — and promised to pay
handsomely for the hit.

On Sept. 7, 1996, the Crips decided to take him up on the offer.
They sent an emissary to a penthouse suite at the MGM, where
Wallace was booked under a false name. In Vegas to party, the rapper
didn’t attend the Tyson-Seldon fight but had quickly learned about
Shakur’s scuffle with Anderson. Wallace gathered a handful of thugs
and East Coast rap associates to hear what the Crips had to say.
According to people who were present, the Crips’ envoy explained
that the gang was prepared to kill Shakur but expected to collect $1
million for its efforts. Wallace agreed, with one condition, a witness said. He pulled out a loaded .40-caliber Glock pistol and placed it on the table.

He didn’t just want Shakur dead. He also wanted the satisfaction of
knowing the fatal bullet came from his gun.
