LOL @ he could've gotten afraid. Horrible reasoning.
You obviously don't understand how Chino used the metaphor. Lyricism is lost on you.
I'm gonna make a CD and get MC Ren & Yella on it. Then I'm gonna put "Featuring N.W.A.!" And when everyone checks, they'll disapointed because Cube and Dre aren't there. Hence, it wouldn't be N.W.A.You can't collab with a group, unless you've collabed with the entire group. How does that make sense at all? Jome....You're a character.
you guys have gotten off subject...imo opinion that chino xl line is more of a diss than not....
actually it's less horrible than u think it is, in an interview Chino said that he was afraid to walk around in his own hood after dissing Pac (before Pac died) cause everyone was on Pac's dick at the timethe keepin it gangsta remix says "featuring The Lox & M.O.P." though Sheek ain't on it..(just one of countless examples) it doesn't have to be the entire group to call it a group feature
There's no way that it can conclusively be taken as a diss. Break it down these two ways. That's not a diss as such, but clearly Pac would find it offensive - who wouldn't?Ultimately it's word play. Pac saying "Chino XL - fuck you too!", that's a diss.

Contradictive..Chino KNEW Pac was gonna take it as a diss, and Pac took it as a diss.Thereby - it's a DISS !
I see what you're saying, but Chino suspecting Pac would take it as a diss doesn't make it a diss. It's about intention, not perception. I copped the Chino album when it dropped, and in eight years I've never viewed that line as an attack on Pac - it's a humorous simile. What I will give you is that if Chino had any doubts or concerns he shouldn't have said it - the mood Pac was in at that time he could even have taken a clear shout out as a diss...Oh, and there's no such word as "contradictive" - you mean "contradictory"
