'Pac and Hammer were good friends, and Snoop was actually cool with Hammer too. I agree with Sccit, Hammer would have been out in 1997, and it would have bombed. I have the album it was pretty bad, but it was Death Row and at the time Death Row was still untouchable as long as 'Pac was alive.

Didnt Hammer also donate a shit load of cash that ended up buying Police choppers for the Oakland Task force? I've heard rappers from Oakland mention this quite a few times, I think Yukmouth even raps about it in a song or two.
They wanted to clean up the image of death row records.
