Back then they were in the middle of the East/West war and it was Biggie and Pac basically and Detroit was in the middle.

LMAO! Biggie was huge not only in Detroit but all over the fucking place in '95 especially in the summer when "One More Chance" became his biggest single ever. 2Pac was also big that year when "Dear Mama" hit radio and video. Ready To Die was still selling like crazy and Me Against The World became Pac's biggest album since he debuted. The beef between the two wasn't public yet so Detroit wasn't in the middle of anything.
