The Mob Father revisits his time with Tupac and explains his disgust with artists using his friend postmortem "to suck blood from a corpse."
While Afeni Shakur and a seeming majority of today’s Hip Hop notables have already praised the usage by Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg of a hologram of Tupac at the Coachella festival this past Sunday (April 15th), not everyone is so thrilled with the late legend’s image being resurrected for profit. One voice in the Hip Hop community who has grown tired of the “parasites” feasting on his friend’s corpse is C-Bo.
The reality rapper from the wild, wild West (whose street name is not incidentally short for “Cowboy”) befriended Tupac during the mid-‘90s, after the then biggest rapper in the world seized every opportunity he could to hip everyone he interacted with to the Mobb Music of the “Birds In The Kitchen” chef. Subsequently, C-Bo appeared on ‘Pac’s diamond-certified double disc, All Eyez On Me, for the introduction of what was to become the Makaveli Records lineup, “Tradin’ War Stories,” as well as the Northern California posse cut, “Ain’t Hard 2 Find.”
Given his history with Hip Hop’s first hologrammed artist, HipHopDX asked C-Bo yesterday (April 17th) for his thoughts on the shocking resurrection of his friend. One of the formerly incarcerated emcees seen in the compelling Rhyme And Punishment documentary was additionally asked to take a quick stroll down memory lane and recall his most vivid memories of Tupac (which included C-Bo recounting how he was warned by ‘Pac not to sign to Death Row Records). The Sacramento native concluded his discussion with DX by explaining why the follow-up to his recently released street album, Cali Connection, is surprisingly being inspired by a b-movie horror flick from the 1970s about a killer whale
HipHopDX: You know I gotta start off by getting C-Bo’s reaction to that Tupac hologram.
C-Bo: You know what, man? I been so caught up, bruh, I ain’t even get to see it yet. I been doing this music, getting this record ready. They ain’t giving me no breaks. My time is short out here right now.
DX: Just about that whole concept though, I know you haven’t seen it but what do you think about using his likeness after his death like that, especially alongside two cats he wasn’t even close to cool with at the time of his death?
C-Bo: These niggas is like vultures, man. Parasites. They trying to suck blood from a corpse.
[Tupac] wasn’t even fuckin’ with fake, phony-ass niggas. ‘Pac was a real nigga, man. And these niggas all coming out trying to use old verses and all this shit, man, I just think that’s some way out shit. I ain’t got no respect for a nigga like that.
DX: ‘Pac appeared to be not on the best of terms with Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre when he passed but he was definitely down with C-Bo. Did he ever tell you why he was such a fan of the “Bald Head Nut”?
C-Bo: Man, it was like ‘Pac was just on me! I had been to Seattle and I had came back to California [in 1994] for a Summer Jam. And he was out there doing the Summer Jam, and my partners called me like, “Nigga! Tupac on stage screaming your name.” Like, “C-Bo, nigga, I know you out there, where you at?”
He was just fuckin’ with me ‘cause I guess he loved the way I put my smash down. The shit that I was talking about in my music, it was all real life. And, him being from the Bay, and me going to jail, going to [the California Youth Authority], locked up with all these different cats and they probably was speaking on me, telling niggas how real I was. But, you know, ‘Pac just had a love for me, man.
When he got The Outlawz, first thing he did was gave them a C-Bo CD like, “Y’all need to listen to this nigga!”
DX: He did all this before y’all had even met, right?
C-Bo: Exactly, before we even met, bruh.
DX: I just did an interview with Mac Mall in which he explained how ‘Pac “was so Bay Area” and was loyal to the artists there, but he also looked out for a Sac-Town native such as yourself by letting you rock on the biggest album of his career. What was that experience like? You remember just what that felt like?
C-Bo: Man! Shit, that was like the biggest thing probably in my life right there when they called me and said ‘Pac needs you.
Then I go down there [to Los Angeles]. I’m at the Le Montrose Hotel checking into my room and I hear somebody saying, “Nigga, is that the bald head nut?!” I turned around and it’s Tupac. He was standing between two big bodyguards. He had a brim on, a tank top, some 501’s [Levi jeans] and some [Converse] Chuck Taylor’s. [Laughs] And he was like, “Nigga, you ridin’ with me.” Whoever was riding with him in that new [Mercedes Benz] 500 he had got he kicked them to the side like, “Nigga, you ridin’ with me!” E-40, everybody, we all standing in the lobby. And I got in the car with him and he started playing that new shit, that [“2 Of Amerikaz Most Wanted”] and all of the shit that he was doing on his new album. It was just like crazy, man. It was like a new wave of music. Niggas wasn’t on that type of shit.
DX: Did y’all get to kick it much after that, before he passed?
C-Bo: Not really. I went on tour like right after that. And I had moved to Atlanta. But I used to call; we used to chop it up on the phone. Even when I had got locked up I would just call him collect and talk to him and The Outlawz, and put muthafuckas on the phone that didn’t believe I was talking to him. [Laughs] ‘Pac was a real dude, man, straight up. That’s like one of the realest niggas I done met in this game – him and Pimp C.
DX: Yeah I heard Pimp C, DJ Screw, they were all C-Bo fans.
C-Bo: They say I was they favorite rapper.
DX: One last ‘Pac-related question: You tweeted [@CboTheMobFather] on March 27th, “I’m still hurt when I think about ‘Pac till this day! R.I.P.” Is that hurt from missing the person, the artist or both?
C-Bo: Both. [When Tupac was murdered] I was in Tracy State Prison. Me and X-Raided [were cellmates], and one of the guards was real cool with us – we used to always come to my cell and try to rap and shit – and one day he had come and bring me the newspaper and was like, “Man, you know they killed your boy last night.” And, I just broke down in tears, man.
He put me on both records: on Disc 1 and 2 [of All Eyez On Me]. And I was juiced up, I was like, “Man, I’m ready to sign with Death Row [Records]!” Everybody was juiced. I’m like, “Man, I wanna sign with Death Row,” but ‘Pac was like, “Nah, you don’t wanna sign to Death Row. You wanna sign to my label when I get my label running.” I was like, “Nigga, that’s what’s up!”
So I hit the road, went to Atlanta and started doing my promotions in the South. And then I wound up going to jail. And then all that shit happened.
DX: You know I gotta backtrack there a little bit and ask did ‘Pac elaborate on why he didn’t want you to sign to Death Row?
C-Bo: He really didn’t say why. But, he said he wanted me on his label. Suge [Knight] was juiced up though, talking about taking me to Japan like, “Man! You gotta go to Japan with us” and all this. And [so] I was like, “Nigga, I’m fin' to sign to the Row!” But ‘Pac was like, “Nah, you don’t wanna do that.”
DX: I think prison might’ve saved your life at that moment.
C-Bo: Man, for real.
DX: Now, given your history with ‘Pac, I gotta ask if there was any reservation at all about using that Notorious B.I.G. vocal sample for “All A Nigga Knows” on your new album?
C-Bo: Nah. I was working with J-Dub, which was a producer over there in P. Diddy’s camp. [Him] and Stevie J., they put that together for me.
I never had a hate for [The Notorious B.I.G.] - even though your enemy is my enemy. But as far as music, Big was nice. He was nice. I don’t know what woulda happened had I ran into him with ‘Pac though. But once they both [passed] it was just like, “Damn, was it worth it?” The beef was stupid.
DX: My final question for you is just do you have any additional words you wanna get out to the readers of HipHopDX about Cali Connection or anything else we did or didn’t talk about?
C-Bo: Cali Connection is the street album but the real album is gonna be Orca: The Killer Whale of the Hood.
DX: [Laughs]
C-Bo: That album will be out probably July 3rd. I got MC Eiht, B.G. Knocc Out, WC, Paul Wall, Young Buck, E-40, B-Legit. Me and WC shot a video [for “Murderer”]. Me and B-Legit just shot a video Sunday. So, it’s coming.
DX: I’m still trippin’ on the Orca shit. Like, you were just watching the movie and - ?
C-Bo: I watched that movie a long time ago when I was a kid. And I wouldn’t get out the bed after I watched that shit. I was thinking some sharks and shit were swimming around my bed. [Laughs] Orca pumped fear in a muthafucka. He was like the killer of the sea. And that’s pretty much how I feel in the hood. Like, I really don’t never have no problems and any problems that I have I come out victorious.

he's got some truth.
-
great read...yes he is right about dre & snoop
-
in a way the man has a point
but Pac did fuck with those "fake" niggaz and those same dudes made him 150 times bigger than he ever would of been if his ass had gone back East after jail
-
dre and snoop just had millions of people talkin bout a dude thats been dead for 16 years... thats dope to be able to keep someone legacy alive like that. c bo mad cuz he aint capable of puttin some shit together like that. and if thats ur homie n someone does a tribute like that, as dope as that was especially, u shouldnt b hatin on it
-
LOL at him sayin he havent had time to see it. Cmon man...

I agree, heck if 2pac's mother was ok with with the hologram then so should c-bo. C-bo was capable of a good album in til my casket drops. Haven't heard his other albums though.
-
His mom ok with it, so shut up.
Really, who's C-BO? Pac's corpse owner? Even more ignorant.
Pac had a relationship with Dre. It went sour from Suge turning Pac gainst him etc.. If it weren't that they would have stayed cool. Dre as a man understood that and held no grudge to Pac. Dre actually knew Pac better than C-BO, Pac knew Dre better than he knew C-Bo.
Pac was just fan of C-Bo, but that's all as it seems.
Snoop had a very good relationship with Pac. Again, Suge tried to divvied that relationship. Had Pac lived they would've been cool again.
Snoop knew Pac better and Pac knew Snoop better than C-Bo.
Shut the hell up, C-Bo.
Besides, this stuff just elevated Pac status in game on huge level, even from the dead.
First rapper to drop a double CD, then everybody wanted to do it.
First to seel a mil the first week, then it was every label and rappers dream.
First dead rapper to appear after the dead and made big noise. Now every dead rapper's camp/fans want their resurrected.
Dre just made Pac big once again.
Shut your trap C-BO.

not sure about these.
-
The technology in itsel is dope but the fact that it wasn't pac but an impersonator kinda ruined it IMO. this technology is kinda scary to me. however, C-Bo is entitled to his opinion, even though it's not very credible since he hasn't even seen footage of it, he seems to be against the concept, which I am too. the interviewer should have focused on the music though and asked him whatever happened to the joint album he had supposedly recorded with Pimp C that J Prince shelved.
-
His mom ok with it, so shut up.
His mom was also okay with "Loyal to the Game".
But ethics aside, I don't care for these hologram "performances". When go see a show, I want to see an artist perform, not some computer generated image with some prerecorded music...
-

;D ;D ;D

it was cool for one concert but they are vultures if they turn it into a whole tour
-
Came in here, expected some tabloid press sensational bullshit flaming nobody rapper, then recognized it's a real interview - Aaaaand I'm outta here
-

this is true. he wasn't coming back east. that first shooting scared the shit outta him.

Ya I'm a C-bo fan but this makes him look stupid as fuck.

C Bo is a west coast legend 8)

its how u get ur point across. sayin 'u know what, i feel they were doin it as a gimick' or somethin to that effect woulda been a lot better then 'they vultures for doin that shit'. that stupid and makes him seem jealous or somethin. rappers especially spend waaay too much time hatin on each other instead of complimentin and supportin each others work
-
he's got some truth.
Yes but at the same time, he's always been a hater. I swear its a Bay thing. He's already dissed Snoop, Dre, Game, and 50 on wax with no "real" (his favorite word) reasoning behind it.
Yes Pac wasn't on the best of terms with Dre or Snoop before his untimely death, but tell me this, who better to bring him back like this? Snoop has more right doing this than Rick Ross or Lil Wayne. I hope Jay-Z does it with Biggie. Let the legends live.

nah homie ill tell you who has more right to bring him back, DIGITAL UNDERGROUND, TREACH OF NAUGHTY BY NATURE people that actually haven't raped his legacy by makin money off him retail wise if im wrong correct me....E-40 coulda easily made a lot of money & he hasnt done it yet as far i know.....snoop does deserve to do it as well as they rode together in tha row....as far as dre he only made 2 tracks with pac & dipped quickly....it is what it is tho at least it wasnt officer ricky or gay wayne ;)

i agree. dre shoulda did that shit for eazy being that eazy basically gave him a career and was group members wit eazy. and muthafuckas act like they forgot about him.

Only problem is Dre and Snoop opened a Pandora's Box that's starting to be exploited. One of the Jackson's mentioned the idea of doing a Jackson 5 reunion tour with an MJ hologram, Warren G wants to see BIG and Puffy perform again, and Juvenile is hoping to perform with a Soulja Slim one.
It's cool for what it was, but as C-Bo mentioned, it's a new way to vulture and make money off of dead people.
-
C-Bo is more than entitled to his opinion. The way I see it is that his mom is cool with it, then it's not much reason to trip for me to trip. Pac and his legacy is being remembered nearly 16 years after he took his last breath on this earth. Most musicians and music artists dream of the immortality that the art of music creates. Pac still has people talking about him today and I'm not just talking about the die-hards, but the entire music industry. I guarantee you that there are some younger people that never really got into him that have begun to take an interest due to this concert performance. For others, it probably reintroduced them to Pac.
2Pac may not have been on the best of terms with Dre or Snoop when he died, but that just makes it mean so much more for them to show him respect and honor. He may have left some potshots at them, but they still give him tributes when they perform, because they respected him and were big enough to rise above any pettiness/bitterness that they could have had. Some people are so caught up in beef, drama and hatred that they forget that we're all people at the end of the day fighting some of the same battles. I don't look at this as a form of disrespect or just trying to profit off of a dead man for Dre or Snoop. Both Snoop and Dre have and will continue to make money regardless of if they ever mention Pac, Eazy, Nate or anybody else's name ever again.

pac's mom is cool with anything thats gonna pay her. the hologram thing is fuckin gay

I agree on Digital Underground and Treach, but thats where it stops.
E-40 hasn't released any of his unreleased shit with Pac because of Afeni, NOT because of loyalty. And yes Dre only made 2 songs with Pac, both were STOLEN from Dre and handed over to Pac. So why should Dre look like the bad guy? He never said an ill word about Pac, Pac had Suge's hand up his ass and made him diss Dre. The bottom line is this amazing tribute was given by 2 artist who met, knew, and worked with Pac personally at the height of his career. Now after this I wouldn't be surprised to see Pac on stage while Officer Ricky is performing "Tupac Back", and thats the performance I'd have a problem with. C-Bo is just bitter because he's irrelevant in all these things. He has NEVER NOT ONCE been involved in any of these major West Coast things. Up In Smoke, Puff Puff Pass, Western Conference? Nowhere to be found.

Agree with pretty much everything except the E-40 part. Pretty sure DJ Quik used the loyalty reason for not releasing the 2pac songs he has in the vault.

Who the fuck is C-Bo to talk about this. The way I see it hes just using Pac as an excuse to bash on LA rappers. Unlike Bay, we are still making noise and this mothafucker is envious.

c-bo must really hate the tha realest ;D

LOL @ C-Bo whining about a hologram yet he chills with this fucking guy:

C-Bo ain't from the Bay but still. I think you guys are elaborating way too much. The way I see it is C-Bo isn't really targetting anybody in particular, he didn't mention any names, and he refers to people as "them" and he talks about people that Pac didn't know personally (so obviously not Snoop & Dre). He also said he didn't know too much about the coachella thing. so i think he pretty much jumped to conclusion and saw in the hologram another way to make money off of it just like people were adding his verses to their songs,, without knowing any better. he's obviously talking about the idea of doing this, not the actual coachella performance.
the title is also misleading...
"HipHopDX: You know I gotta start off by getting C-Bo’s reaction to that Tupac hologram.
C-Bo: You know what, man? I been so caught up, bruh, I ain’t even get to see it yet. I been doing this music, getting this record ready. They ain’t giving me no breaks. My time is short out here right now.
DX: Just about that whole concept though, I know you haven’t seen it but what do you think about using his likeness after his death like that, especially alongside two cats he wasn’t even close to cool with at the time of his death?
C-Bo: These niggas is like vultures, man. Parasites. They trying to suck blood from a corpse.
[Tupac] wasn’t even fuckin’ with fake, phony-ass niggas. ‘Pac was a real nigga, man. And these niggas all coming out trying to use old verses and all this shit, man, I just think that’s some way out shit. I ain’t got no respect for a nigga like that. "
as i said it's obvious he doesn't know what he's talking about and he's talking about the concept, and I doubt he's targetting Snoop & Dre, he's talking about 2pac has been used after his death by everybody and their mama. the title of the interview is misleading and deceptive and the interviewer is trying to have him diss Dre & Snoop several times but if you actually read, he never mentions thems.
E-40 hasn't released any of his unreleased shit with Pac because of Afeni, NOT because of loyalty. And yes Dre only made 2 songs with Pac, both were STOLEN from Dre and handed over to Pac.

1) what makes you say that about E-40 ?
2) we still don't know whether they were stolen or whether Dre agreed half-heartedly to give them to Pac
3) I don't think C-Bo is bitter, he's just mad at the possibility of people exploiting 2pac's name again. I don't know why he should be bitter at not being part of Up in Smoke, he has never done any music with the main artists touring and he was closer to Death Row artists at the time.
people love to speculate and catch feelings way too soon when their favorite rappers are involved.

You think there's another rapper who released an original double CD album before Pac, and sold a mil before him?
There's no other.

Aww man +1 for bringing that up. I completely forgot Bo-Loc was rollin with that clown. Talk about disrespecting Pac's legacy, didn't this guy actually steal and rerecord some of Pac's unreleased shit while he had access to it? Fuck outta here C-Bo.

Exactly!
Man alot of these rappers, celebrities, etc never grow up. They turn into bitter old men who hate on those who matured and progressed in life. C-Bos in his 40s still talkin about being a "real nigga" and all that mentality does is keep him in and out of jail. Dude still gets locked up on the regular. Meanwhile, Dre and Snoop combined are worth like half a billion dollars, while C-Bo probably can't even afford all his illegitimate children.
Im a fan of C-Bos older music, but smh @ him still having the mentality and tendencies of a 20 year old.

LOL @ C-Bo whining about a hologram yet he chills with this fucking guy:

C-Bo Mad :D :D
Aww man +1 for bringing that up. I completely forgot Bo-Loc was rollin with that clown. Talk about disrespecting Pac's legacy, didn't this guy actually steal and rerecord some of Pac's unreleased shit while he had access to it? Fuck outta here C-Bo.
Exactly!
Man alot of these rappers, celebrities, etc never grow up. They turn into bitter old men who hate on those who matured and progressed in life. C-Bos in his 40s still talkin about being a "real nigga" and all that mentality does is keep him in and out of jail. Dude still gets locked up on the regular. Meanwhile, Dre and Snoop combined are worth like half a billion dollars, while C-Bo probably can't even afford all his illegitimate children.

well ppl can hate on tha realest for legitimate reasons but at the end of the day, Pac's close aces embraced him (Tha Outlawz, C-Bo, Spice 1) and collaborated with him.

First rapper to drop a double CD, then everybody wanted to do it.
First to seel a mil the first week, then it was every label and rappers dream.
not sure about these.
You think there's another rapper who released an original double CD album before Pac, and sold a mil before him?
There's no other.
eazy woulda been the first.
thats if eazy had a ghost writer who can write faster then pac
at that point eazy was writing his own shit and with help from ghost writers it probably woulda came out faster. but eazy was consumed wit beefing wit death row. there were a couple of projects that woulda came out like the album he was gonna do wit yella and the death row killas album.

Which says a lot about them as individuals. Especially the Outlawz, for guys who were supposedly close to Pac, they sure seem to have to opposite version of every fuckin Pac related story.

esham had a double cd in 1992
judgement day
then i stand corrected. thanks.
Still it was on no major rapper's radar til Pac did it. Doubt people knew this guy ever did this on a major level.
I guess i can say first major successful mainstream classic double CD. lol.
No one knew this dude, but yeah he holds the record if he was the first, or another.
