I Saw 2Pac Confront Nas At House Of Blues & Kobe Bryant Met 2Pac The Same Night. - Delray Richardson 

I really wish Pac and Kobe would have took a picture together it would have been iconic 💯💯

This man was suppose 2 be telling us about 2Pac & Nas & we end up getting a BONUS STORY about 2Pac & Kobe. Plz continue 2 do more interviews wt this guy. He's thorough!! 100%

This cat has 1 heck of an AMAZING memory, like it's astounding, shit not just dates, he really remembers down to the time & what folks was wearing. His interviews are relics from history....so damn dope!!!

This is a real interview channel that's concerned with the REAL culture of hip hop and not violence or who's more violent than who. Thank you to everyone behind this channel. I salute you!

I had no idea Pac and Kobe were in the same room before.

This story made me think of my mom(rip)..she was part of the security team at the house of blues one of the few females to be on the team i remember this night because she was telling me the story while we ate jack in the box that night when she came in..she told me the same thing many people say how humble he was...she even gave me the photo which i still have of her and dj quik from that night...lol i even know the security guard he was talking about who got paid

Move over Vladtv Art of dialogue is in the building.

The Art of dialogue needs to make a doco about 2pac.. Would be the most realist and accurate documentary ever 😭🙌🏼

This man is hands down the best story teller ever!

you cant tell me this man don't have a tremendous memory, i can never.

Dope story and it's funny because Kobe Bryant and Tupac have the same work ethic when it comes to their craft💯💯

Also, Nas talked about this before too. Alot of ppl assumed Nas was aiming shots at Pac but ironically they were meant for Biggie. Which makes more sense in that verse because Nas said "One life, one love and there can only be ONE KING"... which also explains why Biggie was sending shots back at Nas on "Kick in the Door" and Nas confirmed that's true in the song "Last Real Nigga Alive" off his God's Son album.

Kobe seen Tupac made it in life. But Tupac never seen kobe become a champion in life. Lord Almighty produced 2 Blessed men on God's green earth

Crazy hearing this considering I always thought Kobe reminded me of Pac.

I’ve always felt like a younger (1996-1997) Kobe Bryant had a comparative resemblance to 2pac. A lot of others don’t see it but they definitely look alike to me. Also I think that Kobe Bryant and 2Pac would have been great friends had 2Pac and Kobe still been alive today. They both had a similar work ethic and the same cutthroat mentality in their respective career fields.

Legendary ppl in the building .90s was the greatest era

Kobe was 17 in 96. He was going to a lot of hip hop events before he started playing with the Lakers. I met Kobe the same year in a rap cypher at a rap show. He wasnt bad I thought. I was trippin like damn this is Kobe. RIP to the GOAT

"The art of storytelling" this dude does not miss!

I heard that Pac was listening to Nas "It was written" album on his way to Vegas for Tyson fight

This brother is articulate and paints a good picture of what he witnessed

U can tell He was there & is being honest.. I respect It fr ‼️

I had a feeling pac and Kobe met before

Could you Imagine if Tupac & Nas made a collab album together...

This man knows exactly what I was eating on April 22, 1993..

Kobe definitely had 2pac attitude.

R i.p 2 legends Kobe "Black Mamba" Tupac Shakur "makavelli"

Damn only if Nas and Pac did a album together that would've been dope forreal

It all makes sense now! Tupac met Nas at the House Of Blues and they squashed whatever beef and issue they had. Then Tupac heard "The Message" song afterwards and thought Nas dissed him after they already met and squashed their issues.

Imagine Pac , nip & kobe with a pic together. That’s a iconic LA pic.

Shoutout to Delray, he always gives great interviews, very thorough with the information.

Kobe & Pac the real Goats

Man, not too many ppl can say they seen Kobe meet 2pac

Pac wasn’t letting nothing slide and he was paying attention to all the subliminals from the East coast lol

Keep bringing the 🔥🔥🔥 art of Dialogue and Delray can tell it in detail. Makaveli lives on

His storytelling is on point!Great detail!

Love how this dude tells a story!

The way this Brother tells a story.... Priceless!

Just did the research and all the dates match. So this guy is telling the truth 💯💯💯

His storytelling is legendary😂😂😂💀

The Don Lives!!! Remember don’t get know rest!!! Thank you brother!!! One Love!!!

R.I.P. Shock G❤

Man That's crazy how both my idols Pac and Kobe both spoke and met that night in house of blues but now they're both gone. AI and Andre Rising also talked about that night meeting and seeing Pac in House of Blues that night. Man I remember hitting clubs in the 90s back then. It was the place to be every weekend back when Kid Kapri used to travel around the US and DJ and scratch on the the turn tables. I could only imagine the same for house of blues with all my idols in one spot 🐐 Pac, AI, Kobe, Andre Rison because of the Mike Tyson fight after party 😲😲 Man for all you youngtas go study your history books 90s was the best. Trust me. I was 17 at the time of 96 when Pac died. No one was on these guys levels at that time. Music was the best, AI was in stoppable, Kobe was coming into his own, Andre Rison was a beast and Mike Tyson was just unstoppable. All my childhood heroes in one spot. Man I wish I was there during those times in House of Blues. Epic. Just Epic😲😲😲

This guy takes 10 minutes to tell a 3 minute story. He tell us stuff that didnt have anything to do with the question but hes definitely on point with his shit

dude's got aspberger traits. His memory recollections off the charts and his attention to detail is above normal.🤓💯

Damn good content what was way to clear up the Nas Tupac timeline in between the House Of Blue & the MTV awards. Timeline is very important in these situations. 💪🏿

2Pac, Kobe, Andre 3000, Nas and A.I all in the same building how EPIC is that Delray if anyone has any pics pleaseeeeee see if you can find them. I wonder if Pac/Kobe noticed the resemblance between the 2 of them....

DAMN PAC Kobe & AI in the same room. Young Legends. I bet 2Pac woulda been on the courtside Laker games.

This is actually some new info I've never heard before. Great content

Wait a minute Pac Nas Kobe A.I. Melly Mel OutKast and LL. That’s a classic night... I wish Pac and Kobe was still here.. I think we all know nas and Pac wasn’t afraid of each other. They both respect each other.

I’m a new subscriber and I must say I have been binge watching your videos for hours now, you have very good content and I like your interviewing skills.

Pac did say he ran up on Nas and he could’ve rushed him but Nas was saying he ain’t want no problems! Then Nas drops “The Message”, Pac got upset cuz Nas was being fake at the HOB

Tupac met Nas at House of Blues in LA and gave him props told him to stay out of him and biggies beef.

I believe Kobe stated in a couple of interviews, that one of his all-time favorite songs was "Picture Me Rollin'" by Tupac. 🙂

When you need someone to stretch a story.... he's your man.

Nas and Tupac shoulda made a album Together

So many 2pac stories , Makaveli lives on

Pac didn't realize he shook hands with a future legend.. wish Kobe told his side of the story too, would've been dope

Bro this is one of the most interesting Tupac related stories, and nobody took pictures, damn, god bless the dead 💯

He sound like LL Cool J and look like Guru rip

This dude is a great and precise story teller

Don’t get shit twisted: Nas WAS NOT afraid of Pac, he just didn’t want any kind of beef over hearsay bullshit because there was too much respect between there. Snoop Dogg & others have talked about how Nas had people ready to smash if anything jumped off but he kept it from going that way. Looking at how things went left between Pac & Biggie, people should be glad that Nas decided to try being peacemaker instead of beefstarter...

Just listen to the OG version of “When Thugs Cry” he talks about the Nas incident at the end of the song.

2Pac thought it dissed him “CB4 Gusto” NAS claims it was about Biggie, not Pac.

R.I.P 2PAC THE GOAT 🐐

I always got this vibe, I could always see pac in Kobe face I use to say it back in the day, I was a fanatic of both and it was always weird to me. I wanted to be pac and be a ridah as a young teen when he died, and I wanted to be like Kobe was , how he was on his grown man family and business ish, he looked so at peace with life the night before when he was watching lebron, damn I’m still not right.

Pac and Nas was suppose to meet up in Vegas but Pac got killed unfortunately.

This guy is a treasure of information, from the best era of hip hop in my opinion

I can listen to these behind the scenes stories 24/7 if it was possible. More people need to come out and tell about big n pac and other stars behind the scenes.

It’s crazy cause nas said he didn’t mean to diss him when actually he did after nas dropped the message

I've seen the pic of Pac with Carl Lewis at Bryant Park the night of the MTV Awards, but imagine one of Pac with Alan Iverson and Kobe Bryant!

Love this guy he really speaks truth and has great stories

Imagine meeting Kobe & Tupac in the same night. Amazing 🤩

I still can't believe Kobe is dead. "Lord Knows" is playing in the background as I type this....

This guy tells the best stories and with vivid details! Do more with this guy and he brings receipts! Greatest interviews ever and he has a incredible memory which let's me know he doesn't use drugs

I think The Message set 2Pac off on NaS. He saw him at House of Blues before that and there was no issue between the two.

Great info, makes all the sense in the world now. Nice job on the interview

Pac favorite song of It was Written I Gave you Power. Thats why he made Me & My Girlfriend on Makaveli...

had no idea Pac and Kobe met before

Kobe and Pac at one point looked so much like each other. 96 Pac transitions to the next world, 96 Kobe comes to LA. Kobe is from philly he always said he preferred BIG over Pac. Not from the 90s but it sure seems everyone took a side at the time.

Something in my heart told me My fav rapper and fav hooper met before it’s no way they haven’t

Rip Pac and Kobe the best at there crafts.

i’ve studied that tupac last interview more than i’ve ever studied anything in school

Nas does dis Pac on a mixtape. He says "Rolling over Makaveli with my Pirellis"

Delray showed AI how to do a crossover and anointed Kobe the next MJ all in one night.....This guy needs to do an audio book

Only problem I have with the Shock /PAC/Kobe story is that they are all gone so I hope more people come forward to confirm this ! If so that’s dope asf ! If it has been confirmed in other interviews I stand corrected

Once again..awesome content and a clear path for me to listen..thanks!!

I remember Ja Rule telling a story about Jay-Z being scared when he heard Hit Em Up for the first time.

Great interview bruh, good work! 💯

I love the way this brother Articulate his story

🗣️I read about that meeting too. He is telling the TRUTH ✌🏿

real talk bruh is on point is definitely 411 I’m rocking with him

WOW Big UPS to Delray stories about PAC,his stories are like Big Gene stories about BIG,classic and legendary.

The Message was aimed at Biggie, not Pac. I thought the same thing when it 1st dropped.

I love the way he clarifies the misunderstanding’s! And the way this clip ended shuts it down. Tupac went to Vegas after NewYork. Meaning before him and Nas could clear it all the way up! He passed away! Damn! 🕊😢

This guy is a good storyteller

"Tupac went to Vegas after New York.." video ends... That hit me 😔

I was there that was 96 I remember that night LA shit!

As much as i love Pac.. i feel like he was bugging dissing Nas.. Nas genuinely had love for Pac.

R.I.P Shock G

A convo between pac and iverson would have been exciting to see
