Yeah... it's nice to be able to hear the beat better too... its keyboard elements sound a lot like Bizzy Bone's Menensky Mobbin (from his Heaven'z Movie album)

Pac's death was a set up, yeah, i think people see it clear now.  It could've been The South Side Crips but I'm betting that it wasn't and if it was then they were apart of the behind the scenes of things.

You have to click the play button in the middle. First one will be a red play button, click it and a pop up will come up. Second time it will appear as green and it should work.

THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!!!!  Easily the best shit I've seen on TV in a long, long time!!!

Highlights...


Highlights...

-Spoken word slam poet who appears in this film absolutely blew me away!  When he dropped that line about... "Why do you think they call it BOXING" at the end of the poem I was on the edge of my seat.

-The comic strip like story book used in this was dope, with the BANG BANG of the gun shots and so on, I would love to see if I could by this somewhere.

-Heard a version of "Ambitionz of Ridah" that 2pac had made especially for Tyson to enter the ring with, I had never heard it before.  You hear the story of how these tracks were recorded straight from Tyson and the studio engineer.

 
-Suge Knight is interviewed, and something new has came out about the Orlando Anderson beating/incident.  According to Suge, Orlando Anderson was "friends with 2pac's enemies"..."the ones who had set him up to be shot"... and it was referenced that they were going to take the stolen Death Row chain to Puffy and Biggie at Bad Boy records.  Now we all know about the chain incident, but I had never heard of Orlando Anderson's relationship with Bad Boy or that he intended to bring the chain to them.


-Nas is interviewed, 2pac's mom is interviewed...so many key personalities, even Maya Angelou is interviewed about what she knew of Pac/Tyson.

Some people don't know great art when they see it.  That slam poet was phenomenal (Joshua Bennet, Rahleek Johnson), if that's who you all are referring to.  His voice, his presentation, his words, it was all on point!

2 me Personally I thought it was retarded. The Doc surrounds the events leading up and on the night tupac would get a Death Sentence. I was honestly expecting it slightly darker. It really did remind me of Oz though. They being the Narrators of this particular episode, except instead of a question poised, it's like Poet. Either way the The Doc was good, It just caught me off guard lol

That has also been known, just not from Suge's mouth.  It's been said for years that Puffy often used South Side Compton Crips as informal security when in California, not just because of them having some muscle on the streets but also being cross-town rivals of the various Piru sets that Suge had on his side.  It wasn't to spite Suge, but more along the lines of not being worried about getting double-crossed or infiltrated.  Also, the rumor was that Puffy had put $10,000 bounties on Death Row chains, so Orlando had snatched Travon Lane's chain not just to punk them but also to get some money out of it.

I think the chain snatching was months before 2pac was shot, so why didn't the chain ever make it into Puffy's hands?

...and all this makes Puff sound more gangsta than I would of expected him to be, does it not?

Same, The Poets in the ring concept wasn't a bad concept it's just the style they had them in, just didn't seem 2 me that they belonged.

Didn't you see "One Night In Vegas". He recorded the track just before Tyson's fight ( the same night Pac got shot ). At least that's what they say in the documentary. As a matter of fact according to that producer they inteviewed, Pac came on Friday morning ( I guess that's September 6 ) and did the song for 20 minutes. They later shipped the track to Vegas

It wasen't - it was supposed to be the only song recorded that night but the engineers had the studio for 12 hours so 'Pac decided to stay and record more songs. After "Let's Get It On" he also recorded "All Out" and "Hell 4 A Hustla" - check out the documentary Tupac: A Hip-Hop Genius. Some of the dude's are talking there about that last session..
