Vlad reminds me of suburban white teenagers who emulate gangsta rap culture but don't really understand it. Basically a hip hop nerd who lives in a safe enclave. Except instead of being a teenager, he's in his 40's.
And let's not forget Vlad's classic stupid question: *"Was Tupac still alive when 'Ether' dropped?"* A song that came out in the early 2000's. This dude's job is to cover Hip Hop culture; how does he not know this? He also co-produced the 2Pac: Rap Phenomenon II mixtape
If you are so convinced that VLAD is a cop then stop fucking watching his videos genius. Apparently you are on the cops side or you don't care if he's a cop because you keep watching, so SHUT UP!
Of course Anderson killed Tupac. Anyone with common knowledge can see that. You don't attack a high ranking Crip member (especially in the 90's) with no repercussions. Absolutely not.
Why would you jump the dude (Orlando) in the middle of a casino, immediately after the Tyson fight, knowing that the place is littered with cameras, & knowing that you're going to jail for it? It's no wonder why so many of these "gangstas" wind up in prison, or dead. Suge even Knew that he was on papers, & was risking getting YEARS of suspended time if he violated (which he did). Tupac knew that he already had an arrest record, & would get a much stiffer penalty if he went back in front of the judge (he just got out). Plus, wasn't Tupac out on bond? Didn't Suge bail him out for a million dollars in exchange for him signing to Death Row? Tupac should have been in school somewhere getting his master's, not running around LA with Suge. Instead of being the intellectual that he was, & focusing on that part of himself, he was dragged down by a bunch of dudes who had nothing to live for. His loyalty to his people is ultimately what lead him to his demise.
Because they thought they were untouchable. Listen to his interviews right before his death, he legit thought nobody could touch him. Pride cometh before destruction.
I love 2pac and his music but what was he thinking jumping a crip member, such a stupid mistake. He would probably still be alive if he wasn't so hot headed and reckless.
Love King that's how you know there's something fishy wit Pac's death. First time in hip hop journalism history police interviewing police. Maybe or maybe not, the first time....
The chain DID NOT get taken. They tried to take it but Trayvon took it back at the mall. It was just the disrespect and the attempt that sparked it all.
Is it just me that finds extremely coincidental Orlando happened to be there at that exact time in Vegas being spotted by Deathrow? I mean if you have been to Vegas its so damned packed and the odds of this happened have to be a million to one.
It's not rare at all; it's actually pretty common if you live close by. Especially during a big fight. I live in southern Cali, so I've been to Vegas lots of times, and have ran into people that I know just randomly many times.
This is the most basic & obvious thing ever. People in L.A. have known the truth if Pac's death for years & it's mind-blowing that people are still believing the conspiracy theories.
Everyone calls Vlad the 'Feds' but always listen to his interviews. Who else in the industry is giving interviews worth listening to on a regular basis?
The dude on the left is who DJ Quik was dissing on the original Red Tape back in the day.Some people say he was who the character Pacman was based on in the movie Colors but i don't know for sure
"some punk that I roughed up waaay back, coming back after all these years, rat tat tat tat tat that's the way it is...." kinda crazy hour those pax bars popped into my head while watching this
Its dj culture vulture Brad and no not all white dudes are culture vultures cause if you grow up in the hood then that's you but if you making money of the streets when you ain't been in em white or black you a culture vultures to me
Exactly. They are shadier than even some of the real street guys that have been on Glad's channel (i.e. BG Knocc out etc). Cops are just another gang - better organised, funded and equipped by the state.
The interview the detective is talking about where Suge said "baby lane" killed Tupac was a 1997 vibe interview. They had SANYIKA SHAKUR a well known crip interview baby lane. In that interview he tells him what Suge said about the murder but baby lane denies everything.
I remember that too from the early internet conspiracy posts regarding 2Pac from the 90s, used a dial up modem to access the shitty website with no graphics, there was this herb claiming that Mobb Deep had pac killed, lolz.
Vlad always tries to trick fools (artists) into dry snitching. Tim Brennan ('Blondie') pulled my dad over, saw he was faded, locked up my dad's work truck and called us kids to walk Pops home. We were eight blocks away. We lived In a ragedy part on N. Long Beach in the day.
As a Vega local, we know that back in 1996, besides the Strip, there were hardly was any cameras on streets off the strip. The shooting took place about 3 big blocks east of the Strip and right next to it is an empty parking lot and an electricity grid. Not much going on in that corner.
man just stop talkin about this shit...Lane is dead, Pac is dead, neck bone, heron, buntree they all dead even the dudes that was supposedly with Lane in the car are dead...folks from LA wanna move on from this shit it aint gonna bring nobody back. we all know Lane is the one that took the chain thats old news, we all know that Lane got jumped for that reason and later Pac got shot. Rip to all of them brothas and hopefully we do better in the future instead of relaying how you died over and over.
Some clowns try an act like Tupac was tough. He only jumped Orlando because he had a crew of gorillas with him, otherwise nothing would've happened. He was just playing gangster and found out the hard way.
Saw a interview with Keefe D (Orlando's uncle) who was driving the car that a group of girls where hollering at pac and pac then stuck his body out the window to holla back and that's how the 4 crips noticed him and then did the drive by
Marco Santiago Still bad luck they were close enough to notice the girls and just bad luck still a bad coincidence that they were driving by the same streets
Tim Brennan sold this idea to Greg Kading to try and push the book once upon a time in Compton Greg kidding getting kicked off the task force Took his story and didn't murder rap so he's bitter
Corey Edwards basically admitted that the whole bar story was a complete lie and that Orlando and the Crips went looking for Pac and Suge after the beatdown. Hence why Mob James saw the White Cadillac pull into Club 662 before the shooting happened.
