I feel MC eiht 1000%, I always felt like Pac died from his loyalty to Suge and not because he was trying to be a gangbanger. Loyalty was very important to Pac. His beef with Big started when he felt Big knew he was gone be shot at Quad studios and didn't warn him. Pac had beef with Snoop before he passed cause he felt Snoop did not have his back after Snoop went on hot 97 saying he loved Biggie and Puffy and that Pac was the one with the problem. Pac fell out with Dr. Dre after he felt he was not loyal to Snoop during his murder trial.

Heard this story many times but for the first time I really get it. Imagine you're in prison preparing to do years and someone puts up a two million dollar bond, gets a serious lawyer involved in your situation, flies you out to L.A., gives you the keys to a Rolls Royce and puts thousands and thousands of dollars in your pockets. This is all before you've made a single dollar for them as an artist. Yeah...that would make you loyal.

MC Eight is a real G. If Tupac had hung around him, he would still be alive today because MC Eight has been in the streets, gang affiliated and was able to duck and dodge the drama. Suge was reckless and that's why Death Row was taken away from him and why he is where he is today. Notice Tupac is the only key figure in that circle that lost everything including his life, yet he had everything to live for. He'd probably be running as a political candidate by now and would win!

@jasonjames5076

Yes sir I agree... But the fact that when pocket out of jail he went to the studio that night and started recording hit after hit after hit, which turned into straight gold for Suge... And as far as the loyalty thing... Suge Knight did not bail Tupac out of jail because of loyalty... He did it because he saw a golden opportunity.... Potentially one of the greatest rappers that could be, in a vulnerable position, that he could exploit do his own maximum of benefit... And yes I bet Suge Knight was very nice to him as long as the Golden goose was laying golden eggs... Had nothing to do with loyalty to by Tupac... It's called friendly extortion... What do you think would have happened the second are Golden goose stop laying golden eggs?... Clearly Tupac must have realised what was what... Why would he be loyal to that?... I don't believe Tupac did what he did because of loyalty... I think he trying to be the physical representation of all the tough stuff he was rapping about, thug Life... And that was his opportunity to physically manifest the thug life that he was rapping about and believed he was apart of.... Only the retard didn't stop to think, that's the most dangerous people in the world are the people with nothing to lose... All those people have is their manhood they're in their reputation, and if they'll all lose that they'd be a zero basically... So no matter what that was coming back to him, might I add that most paybacks of this nature are 10 fold whatever you're paying back... And Tupac punch someone in the face, and in return he got shot four times, and died bleeding out and gasping for breath in the middle of the road in the arms of a cop, the people that he hated most... Good Notice Suge Knight had him in his presence at all times?... Or as much as possible?...

They had no security entourage in Vegas. You must be a chicken little that often speaks on things that you really know nothing about. Go clean your room

The fact that Pac didn't come from that life is exactly why he wanted to be a part of that life. Quite unfortunate. Go figure.

This is why you should help people. Giving a man who is hungry money for food will make him so loyal to you that it will go from him not feeling like he can say 'no' when you ask for his help, to you not even having to ask him at all. He will just do it. How many people were about to get robbed or beat up or whatever, but the person they gave money to said, 'No, ya'll not going to fuck with him or her, that's that nigga that helped me when I was starving.' Eiht just said that's the kind of loyalty that comes from giving a hungry man food. Real shit.

Wisdom is life's greatest currency

They been in this interview a whole week straight. No eating. No sleeping. Just talking for a week

People always talking about Suge influenced him, look at Dre. Big Suge got Dre out of a bad contract, they started Death Row, Dre would go to jail and Suge would get him out. Dre hanged around Big Suge before they fell out and Dre wasn’t acting like this; he wasn’t trying to impress Suge. How come Pac couldn’t be like that, he could’ve still been loyal to Big Suge even without trying to impress Suge. Pac just moved on the environment he was sort of a follower at times.
