Eloise Garland was beautiful. Pac has her eyes, nose, teeth, bone structure, lips and smile. They both passed at 25, just different eras.
That's heavy, both at 25. Some would say it was divine.
Rip
They almost have the same eyebrows too!
I would say it's proof that our ancestors come back that's chilling for normal people to think of but the Yoruba of Nigeria believe that we do reincarnate through our family bloodline.
@@JONTEE206Nothing about death is divine. Absolutely nothing, in any way.
@TC Hmmm, many believe we choose our life and death before we come here. Thinking like a human I can understand how some like yourself would be taken back by my statement but there's a lot out there that makes my statement stand as truth.
This man still lives with some hard pains I'm glad he has the opportunity to share his side of the story in a huge platform.
You mean REGRET
Alotta stuff he's saying ain't adding up tho
The dude passed away years ago
@@columbusohio72 should of could a woulda smh
@@BlackWomenAreTheSmartest like what?
As a father myself you can tell he loves his son. Rest in paradise Pac and Afeni.
@@kevinjameshannant1750bro she died in 2016 20 years after 2Pac
Lol he a deadbeat
That’s why hearing both sides of the story is SO IMPORTANT, you can tell that Mr.Garland is so proud of his son, he smiles and brightens when he talks about him😢
@christurner2684 why do you want to hear excuses from a dead beat dad
Nice last Name there sir! .... 😂
He's a coward. He should have said all this when Afeni was alive.
@@NelsonJ1 I agree. Im glad Afeni raised Pac which made him who he was. If Billy had raised Pac it would a different story lol
I don't see how yall can say that, have yall ever thought maybe that's y he went through the shit he did in New York. Not to mention she told him that Nicky barns right hand man was his dad how yall think that worked out for him?
He gets to hear his son voice anytime he wants. If you have lost a love one you know how precious that is. It's been 20 years and I try to remember my Grandmother's voice, I can hear it sometimes in my head.
Bless 🙏 I always here my love ones voices all the time
My momz passed last year fam…I downloaded and saved every voicemail. You’re right, it’s something about being to hear the person’s voice, even if it’s a recording…it feels like they’re still here for them few seconds.
To see or hear your loved one whenever you want is amazing and to see the love everyone has for them is a blessing. My Dad died in 2019 and I forget sometimes what he,sounded like I do have some voice recordings though.
That’s a huge blessing. My grandmother passed away 10 years ago and I can remember her sayings and our conversations, but sadly I can’t remember her voice or how she would say things.
Yeah fa real it’s been 23 years and it’s hard to hear my father voice sometimes 😢
I can’t believe that there are ppl in this world so fanned out that they could be mad at this man giving his perspective on everything.. this is amazing to be seeing and hearing b
Liberals for you
@bojaxsun5505 I cant believe you believe thus lying dude he a snake Tupac told jim he didn't want a relationship in with him in o6
Nah, it's not fanning out... it's simpin' out for single mothers.. The black community worships BW.
As you can see above, mental illness is real..
@@amaddenmind4597 🤨 This has nothing to do with either political party, both parties are FOS. You can take that childish small minded thinking elsewhere.
The pic of 2pac and his gran side by side is something else 🥺
Right striking resemblance.
Mind blown 🤯 .
He literally got almost EVERYTHING from her that was incredible to see
@@ijumpjudy Had you lusting him, didn't it fruit boy?
This JumpJudy asshole really has it in for Pac. Must be 12 years old or somethin
Imagine trying to find a kid in the 1970s. No internet, No Phones and the mother on Drugs. So you can’t use phone books because the mother is on drugs and moving to location to location.
Different times…
But he pop up to be 2pac 🤦🏽♂️ shit is wild
Didn’t Billy admit to being on drugs too at one point??? 🧐
She wasn't on drugs until crack came out in the late 80s when he was almost grown and this dude already admitted to not really looking for him
Not true. Go look at Dear Mama. As a child, Tupac and his little sister would be home alone for days because Afeni was out drugging. No food in the house and no lights/electricity.
His grandmother was absolutely beautiful ❤️
Yes
Elle ressemblais trop a pac ❤
She was the smile right on point
Looks like Pac
@@alan6196 she beautiful 😍
This man gives off an honest and good energy. RIP PAC
Yes. I believe he is a good man and Tupac was a good and great man. They just had terrible odds against them. I was watching Sanford & Son and thinking that, with more luck, this could have been Billy and Tupac (minus the mental abuse, of course).
@@ijumpjudy lol
@@ijumpjudy If you think that, I guess it takes one to really know.
This is criminal what you said.
@@monilaninetynine3811 Jasmine Guy was one of Tupac's closest friends. She said in her book about Afeni Shakur that Billy Garland saw Tupac twice after he became famous. The first time was in 1994, after the Quad shooting. The second time was in 1996, after Pac was shot in Las Vegas. No one was keeping Garland from seeing Pac during that two year gap, which he claims was the case when Pac was a child.
Pac spent his whole life tryna find a father, needin him & was told the man was deceased. now Pac himself is deceased, while his dad is alive & well, missin him.
@@ijumpjudy you sound jealous. go do something impactful with your life, rather than speaking envious towards a dead man
@@ijumpjudy No tears over here buddy. TUPAC doesn't need to come back. he has already accomplished what he needed to. he impacted the world through his music.
@@ijumpjudy I advise you to go an seek help. there is no way you can still be angry TUPAC fucked your mother after 20 plus years. Therapy is the word of the day
@@ijumpjudy seek Jesus Christ
@@ijumpjudy You’re dying one day too “laughing emoji man” but the difference with your death & PAC is that your a nobody & nobody will remember you 😢.
Tupac resembled his grandmother so much, Wow. RIP Pac. They can kill a revolutionary but they can never kill a revolution. 1 love.
Yes he did. Wow that smile, those eyes❤❤❤❤
I said the same thing!!
He look just like His GGGRANNY💯👍
The Eyez
I mean, just like her
Damn u can't say that ain't he's family pac looks like he's grandma she was beautiful
You can tell he's genuine. He never demonize Afeni, never call her out her name but let it known what she did wasn't right.
Bro i read evolution of a revolutionary i knew right then and there
He literally talked about her looks. What are you talking about?
He's doing it the man way.
@@nathaniel972ful no the man way is to know where your sperm ends up and to be a father. The only story I’m interested in from him is when he found out 2Pac was his son and why was he absent?
@@CodyMartinez-tf5eh nah...the mom's back then held all the power. Give him a chance to tell his story. My own son is going through this exact same thing with an ex that ran off with his son and my grandson. Hiring investigators to try and find him. The lies some of these mom's tell are deep and unfixable. He may be telling the truth
This man is in his 70’s .# Goals 🎉
Trust me
Wallahi
This is interesting, beautiful and sad all wrapped up together. As a long time fan of Pac since I was a kid… this is a real treat man.
I agree
The situation with his grandmother, SHEESH. Pac's bloodline was FILLED with tragedy, heartbreak and loss. It's no WONDER he turned out the way he did. It literally was in his blood. Wow.
Almost like a generational curse. 😢
@@levrai944 Nah, it was. We cursed by God
Generation curses
He's very well spoken and charismatic, I see where Pac got his charisma from....
Both of his parents honestly
@@BestFriendsMom69 True indeed
I would say both parents.
@@BestFriendsMom69 Yeah, because at the end of the day you can’t take away the fact that his MOTHER was the one who raised him. She fed her morals and principles in the formative part of his life and she’s the reason why he had that fire prescience.
Watching this was sad. Pac was so huge and iconic to us, but sometimes we forget this dude had a family and he was just a normal - albeit very intelligent and creative- person to them. RIP Pac. We miss ya 😥
Absolutely. Well said!
Pac was raised by panthers , he really had 3 fathers Billy / Mutu Shakur & Legs
Huge and iconic to you!!!!! Speak for yourself.
@@lsubesteva yes, and MILLIONS of others.
Mane that icon was 25 the adult mind not even fully developed brain frfr
I'm happy to hear that papa garland loves pac's music and he listens to it daily ❤
This man carries allot of pain just like his son pac did
I once again am grateful for this interview - Surely adds another bout of wholeness to Tupac.
Pac looked just like his grandmother MY GOODNESS!! Explains why he was so exquisitely beautiful.
Great and interesting interview with 2Pac's father Billy Garland. The song Dear Mama was written in 1994 and prior to 2Pac seeing Billy physically for the first time in many years. 2Pac was referring to Legz in the Dear Mama song. Yet, 2Pac told (what he thought) was his truth at the time. He obviously was misled. He thought his father was dead, when he was really alive.
Deep
Dear mama was written in 93 did you watch the dear mama documentary? In that they talk about pac playing that song for his cousins after shooting the 2 off duty cops
@@jacobbruce3174 Yes, I did watch it and you're right. Dear Mama was written in 1993.
@@jacobbruce3174 One of those cousins 2Pac was gonna fight and that's actually why 2Pac didn't want to go to Las Vegas on September of 1996. Yet, that's of several things that wasn't mentioned in that Dear Mama documentary but, was revealed in another documentary (in another way).
@@sms130official ya I know they talked about his cousin selling his Al an pac wanting to go to Atlanta but went to Vegas instead
Bruh almost hit us with that classic Pac laugh @ 2:22...Pac's such an icon, it's a trip seeing his pops.Almost surreal.Pac's grandmother was a beautiful lady.He came from good stock.
It was his laugh first 😂
@@newjackswingjuicyswing2397 Real talk!😄
That's prove it 😂😭😂 the same laugh No DNA test needed 🧬
I started thinking the same thing!
The irony.....Shock G said pacs laugh was forced & fake....stop acting like yall didn't see them documentaries
Watching these interviews has really changed my opinion of this brother, I had bought into the propaganda that he was a deadbeat dad that only tried to get involved in Tupac’s life because he was famous and saw an opportunity to get money from him but now I realize that I misjudged him I’m glad he’s finally getting to tell his side of the story
Maybe I’m wrong, but he’s probably getting paid to tell his side of the story. Lol
@@CodyMartinez-tf5eh This ain't his first time, coming out w/ this info though...he may be getting paid but his side has been always consistent..
That's right amen.
@@KeeksSnoogie79 consistent? Except when it mattered, like when it came to be in a father. To me, they’re nothing but excuses. Excuses mean nothing, the fact of the matter is 2Pac, grew up without a father and deserved better.
MAINSTREAM American Media NEVER NEVER EVER Tell THE WHOLE TRUTH, THE FULL TRUTH OR NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH, NEVER!!
Remember that!!!☝🏿
2pac's dad is as real as they come and I can tell he had a strong bloodline because of how Tupac was😢
This man will live with regret for the rest of his life. Heartbroken.
Regret for what?
Who doesn't In this world
Yes
Regret??? Tupac’s mom disappeared and lied to Pac. How is that this man’s fault???
This kid in my crew (construction) was having issues with his dad. I told him there’s two sides to every story, I don’t think your mom told you the truth. You need to talk to your dad. He did, and found out the truth, and came back to work, and thanked me! He also told me his dad wanted to buy me a drink! It’s really sad that that happens but, it does.
You gave him the best advice possible. God bless you man.
❤❤peace to u bro
Mr Garland speaks from the heart. I felt the pain when discussing his mother's passing. 🙏🏽🕊🙏🏽🕊
That's something that would effect on on a mental, molecular, cellular level.I can't imagine the impact.That would carve out a crater of great depth in your soul.Pac came from two individuals with some heavy energy.Afeni could never carry out a full pregnancy, but at the worst/most stressful time in her life, embryo Pac's already determined to be the rose that grew through concrete.Afeni's sitting in jail, pregnant, and fighting against COINTELPRO.All that stuff fed into Pac.That's what the brother was different & unique.
@@dirtyface-capone7622 🎯🥂
Dear mama is one of my favorite of all time. Remind me of my mother who I haven’t seen since I was 7 years old.
Protect this man at all cost thanks for giving us the most legendary figure who ever lived
Naw we good. We don't protect dead beats
@@TonyMontana-mv9ez I have to agree. I’m good.
@Yah Rules ♾️ May they all Rest In Peace 🙏🏾
@Yah Rules ♾️ Yes you are right. I am tough. You call it tough, I call it being a man. I'm in my kid's life. I don't make excuses. I'm not like you think leaving a kid is ok. There's no excuse to leave a kid behind
@@TonyMontana-mv9ez agreed
You can just tell Billy Garland and 2pac would have been close if they had a longer relationship... even in his 70s Billy has style and charisma...
This man seems to have wanted to be in his son's life, but yet we keep celebrating these trifling mothers.
It’s a black thing
Was his mother a trifling mother for having an illegal abortion?
How about his mama?
If you mind your business and stop passing harsh judgment, it shouldn't matter. That's a "black thing" huh.... gossiping
Practice what you preach Indigo. You just passed judgement on everyone who wrote a comment in this session. Now you mind your business.
To know your son is 2Pac is crazy when you think about it 💯😭🔥🔥
Fr I’ve been bragging like a mf😂😂😂😂saying that’s my son!
@@ijumpjudy you bragged b!tchin with puffy😂
@@ijumpjudy Let me find out Puffy making burner accounts to hate on PAC😂😂😂Diddy is this you? lmfao
@@ijumpjudy That was disgusting making fun of somebody getting shot first off, it’s ok because Karma is coming for you and PAC came out with the hardest diss song ever, that people till this day is still listening too, ok Judy😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@ijumpjudy Still got the hardest diss song of all time that is still popular in 2023 which will reach 1 billion views on YT one day in the future, and known around the world as the greatest ever, dawg you can say what you want and most likely you’re a troll lmfao but go ask any young or old person who’s the greatest rapper of all time is and watch how the majority will say 2Pac🐐
That just goes to show you. How serious things are. I'm 53 and I still suffer from this I wish my Dad have told me I love you son and I'm a father of 3. And a grandfather. Still don't mean I won't daddy. Rip Tupac Shakur you're getting your 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Everyday i deal with that i wish my father was there to habe told me. Smh man it hurts
My son got murdered 5 years ago today, it's a blessing for him to be able to still hear his son's voice everyday 😢

Damn Tupac Look Just Like His Grandma
This brotha is telling absolutely the truth.
That woman let that boy put a whole song out full of lies.
It’s the truth. She’s the one who fed him, gave him medicine and raised him while he was poor. Where was billy? Cut the bs 😂
Facts.
I would have loved to hear his remake of that song After he discovered the truth about everything.
I'm sure it would have been a completely different song and attitude.

@@DarkandlovelyLovelyits not the truth and you're fighting a little too hard to defend her lying like that shit is ok...
I mean, it was his truth at the time lol. So technically it wasn’t lies lol. It would be different if Pac knew all this , but he didn’t, he rapped what he knew and was told , so it wasn’t a lie like you trying to say it is 😂
He gets his talkative and charisma it seems from his father. And the revolution and history from his mother
Tupac looks just like his grandma
Correct
@@ijumpjudy You are really hung up on g@y shit 🤔 you think about it a lot and it shows
@@ijumpjudyWhat’s suspect is your OBSESSION with Pac despite trying to come across like you don’t like him smh at least fans don’t hide the love just come on out the closet 😂

2pac's father is a great man, I'm glad he finally open up and let the world know his truth that is actually real truth, i remember how i used to think that 2pac's father didnt really care about Pac, thought he was cold and all, but now that i see these interviews, i realized that i was wrong, great person! And he is filled with his sons aura.
Y’all so weird 🤦🏾♂️
Dead beats fathers are great people. Smh
So whats his excuse of being a deadbeat dad?
@@gerardovega4641 we all make mistakes and who we are to judge if his own son forgived him?
@@PrinceElliott7 how is leaving your son and being deadbeat a mistake? 🤣 you must be a deadbeat dad aswell.
Damn, I didn't know that's what happened to his mother😢.. When, i first saw that picture, i was so amazed about how 2Pac resembled her.
yeo same eyes
@@CANDYSOULonline yep, I see the same nose and smile too☺️
He looks like his grandmother the most they have the exact same face
@@char_d.0908 his grandmother was a beautiful lady 💯💯
It would be good to hear his entire story. How he came to be a Black Panther and what his life was before that.
We still have a piece of 2pac still waking the earth. Now that’s a blessing
Sperm donor
What people don’t understand is this man had other kids who he was obviously taking care of. You think he can just up and leave to go look for Pac? No. Does it suck that it played out like that yes. But it’s not his fault PAC’s mom up and left and was hopping around the country. This was especially tough back then with no internet and smart phones.
I hope you really don’t believe this?
He helped to make a son that he didn’t care for!
Yeah he put his other kids over pac now that he’s famous he’s regretting it
Not. He didn't want to settle and chose to marry mother of other kids.
PAC mom had to flee the feds. He said himself that the panthers were scattered. Most went into hiding, so I’m not about to judge PAC’s mom bc none I dont know how it feels to be on the run from the most notorious government in the world & with a child. I’m just glad PAC got to reunite with his dad
@@leagalore proof?
Very honest ,real interview. It makes me look at Tupac in a different light. It's hard losing a love one. Not a day goes by how I remember my mom her voice, her mannerism, I love her more than anything and with all of me...wow what a great interview!
Im glad art and delray brought billy garland up here so he can tell his story r.i.p pac he really loved him and they was going to build a strong relationship together pac was taken to early
Big Shoutout to Art and Delray!!! This is a instant classic can’t wait to see the complete interview. 👏🏾
Good they got the interview before vlad
@@tavongtv436 I feel like he aint fucking with Vlad an if he does Vlad better keep that same energy cause he's been pushing false narratives bout Pac lately, hope PACs dad puts him in his place
@@tavongtv436 💯
Indeed.
Those genes are strong
Amazing how our ancestoral pain lives within us - Tupac's grandmother died of an abortion - tupac makes Brenda has a baby promoting the importance of having and protecting your kids - I'm sure pac had no clue what happened to his grandma - God is amazing to let our ancestors continue to be with us
Wow! You connected that thread for us. I think they call it "epigenetics"
This was a a very sad interview. Wow so Tupac Dad is alive and here.
@3;17Mannnn Pac looked more like his grandmother than hippos even thats crazy...AOD u outdid yourself with this one and Delray and also the editor too,this was done tastefully and with respect
Should ask him about his daughter (2Pac’s sister) N’Neka Garland, who died 2 months ago. Born in New Jersey , died in Cali…very sketchy. She was the producer for General Hospital on ABC.
🙏🏾
This is a great interview so far…. I don’t know how much more of these you have coming out, but I can tell you, IT WON’T BE ENOUGH. 🙏🏽💯
So when are we going to start giving Afeni Shakur the side eye for being a stereotypical baby mama and doing everything in her power to separate 2Pac from Billy? Like why? And this was way after her crack head days? In my opinion, she was foul. 🤷🏾♂️
Black Fathers Matter ✊🏾
Exaclty…. Exaclty Exaclty.. the red pill community agrees. 🤣🤣lbs. his mother had him brainwashed like so many young black men in our communities.
Thank you.
And if no one can set you straight as a man, your father can. Damn shame
Once again they two are not here to defend themselves or speak on. So this interview is invalid. He’s changing the narrative after all this time. Pay attention people.

It make sense now when Mr Garland said his mother lived in west hollywood...it was meant to be for Tupac to be in California. He's a splitting image of his grandmother...that's eerie how much they resemble each other. Would've been cool if he would've met her & seen his true lineage
They’re together now.
He had his father mannerism, even down to the facial expressions.
Look how pac's father uses his hand to talk just like pac wow..💯💪🏾

You can tell how much Billy loves Tupac ❤️❤️
Tupac looked so much like his grandmother. She was beautiful.
Omg that picture of Tupacs grandmother the similarity is unbelievable
Thank you so much for this interview Mr. Billy Garland. Thank you for sharing your side.
Wow Tupac looked just like his grandmother.
I want to here from Pac real father figure Mutulu. Pac credited him, so I know he has many stories from when Pac was a baby.
I'd love to hear from him too. Pac often visited him in prison. He didn't understand Pac's whole Thug Life concept and disagreed with it. I know he's really sick now and may not have long. I'm just glad he was released.
Damn Billy's mom refused to go to the hospital because she didnt want to rat out the lady who gave her an illegal abortion? That's just tragic.This brother has taken some heavy blows in his life.
Remembered it during that heavy racist era
This is why it puzzles me when people say Pac was acting or trying to be something he wasn’t. Because if you listen to the man he’s legit telling his truth, even the flaws. He indeed said he was caught up in the life he was living, he got off track a bit, he was very aware that he was taking missteps. I believe that if he would have continued to live, he would speak about his time on death Rowe very candidly.
OMG thr grandmother is beautiful AF & she too looks like Tupac
2 PAC looks EXACTLY LIKE HIS GRANDMOTHER
The “Dear Mama” reference isn’t about Billy but Afeni’s boyfriend ,when Pac was a kid, named Legs. He was a hustler who moved to Baltimore from NY with Afeni and her kids. Legs died when Pac was a kid. Pac for years that he was his bio dad.
Yeah Legs was the coward in the song.
I had an ex who said that our baby wasn't mine after we broke up and that she didn't want any child support because that would mean I had parental rights. In fact, later on she said she was married and that the child was adopted by her husband. I didn't know what to believe. 15 - 20 yrs later she conveniently tried sending me to court for back child support after her husband divorced her. The judge threw out the case...
Who else noticed the uncanny resemblance with the grandmother ?
Omggg look at his grandmother 😮😮😮😮 identical
Pac is like the Forest Gump of Hip Hop, he’s every where and in every time
That abortion story at the end fucked me up. RIP to 2pacs grandma and RIP Pac RIP Afeni
That really got to me.
Mane even I felt that through that through the screen. I was like damn
He got quiet after that. Still shook 60+ years later. That man was really surrounded by death his whole existence.
Great pic of 2pac and his grandmother. ❤
He looks so young like he is 47. Damn Pac would’ve aged well and blessed us with many more beautiful works if he ain’t passed…
Pac was drinking and smoking too much to age well. Unless he would ve changed his lifestyle up
pac looked old already for a 25 looked like he was 30.
Pac smoked and drink a lot who knows.
He looks his age to me. There’s some ex-junkie look to him. Not bashing him but that’s how he looks.
"I don't know how we got on that."
I know how. Mr. Garland needed to get that off of his chest & he felt comfortable enough to put his guard down. The way Mr. Richardson conducted this interview, he put Mr. Garland's mind, heart & soul at ease.
I don't believe Tupac was aiming that verse at Billie. He thought another guy was his dad. Pac acknowledged Mutuluo as his dad. But after meeting Billie in the hospital, he knew then. Pac did say that Billie was a loser in the song "Still I rise "
He was speaking from another person's perspective. He wasn't talking about Billy in Still I Rise.
PAC looks like his father and grandmother
He wrote Brenda got a baby, not knowing how closd it was about his gma
Incredible insight
Deep!
wow... 2pacs grandma looks just like him. 🙏🏿 RIP 🙏🏿
Tupac looks like his dad mom. Wow
Man Funk all these short clips, we need the FULL interview!
Great stuff Art!
This is definitely a sad situation but to 2pac's credit, He grew up thinking another Man was His Father. It's not that He thought Billy Garland was dead, Pac knew of Legs being dead. That's who He was referencing in "Dear Mama"
I was 6 years old when my mother passed as well. It leaves a lot of unanswered questions and internal trauma…
My condolences to you Cheyanne..do you remember much of her at all?
@@ingodwetrust7648 Thank you, I appreciate that. And yes I do! I have some very vivid memories of her. But one thing I do not remember is the sound of her voice. That makes me sad.
@@cheyanneg29 you're welcome..I know it must be very hard especially not being able to remember her voice..I lost my Nana 2yrs ago and I still can't believe she's gone she was my mother's mother and she was like a 2nd mom to me..I bet you look just like your mother huh?I bet she's watching over you as well 🙏🙏🙏
Oh wow!!! I never thought about Tupac dad for some reason. I guess I thought he passed away when pac was a child I don’t know just never thought. He’s a very handsome man. I see the resemblance in him & his grandma. I have to watch it again.
He thought his pop was Legs
No bitterness… just understanding… as a father would and should… respect to Mr. Garland
Can’t listen to the song still makes me cry , I wasn’t raised by my mother but I was Raised by my Father so I always hold this song in my heart , I felt like Pac was talking to us all that struggled 💪🏾
Wow! They BOTH talk with their hands! Same mannerisms… Tupac looks so much like him and his grandmother too. ❤
WOW. I immediately said that at 3:17. No wonder 2Pac didn't look like his mother or the other family. He takes after the Garlands. They seem like some good people.
2Pac was the spitting image of his father and grandmother. He looked just like them. It's just so sad how his mother lied to him!!
Tupac looks like his grandma twin. God bless her soul, I’m sorry Tupac father lost his mother so young, I was 11 when my mom passed away, this year will make 29 years without her, I’m her twin. I understand what he’s feeling, I have 3 children, I would never want to experience losing one as Mr. Garland has lost a son (Tupac) , and a daughter. God bless his other children left. God bless Mr. Garland May god keep him safe always. Rest in peace Tupac, and Afeni. God only knows why their lives went the way they did, keep the faith.
Im so happy Billy is finally getting to tell his side of the story. Pac needed a father figure and it contributed to his demise. RIP
Definitely
b.s. Its a soul contract
@@indigoearthangel888you can believe what you want but the man died for nothing.
NO ONE IS EXEMPT! Too many baby mommas LIE and alienate the father. It is important to hear BOTH perspectives in these matters because the black community has been decimated because of shyt like this! Hold her ACCOUNTABLE and have the same energy of grace and forgiveness for the dad. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
Whats sad is dude never got a chance to see that picture of his grandmother...Pac would've been crying looking at those similarities 🙏🙏
Imagine waiting til YOUR SON & HIS MOTHER DIE to so called tell your side of the story. Why you didn't go to the media to tell your side after getting that 700 thousand? Become those that loved through this know the TRUTH and that is you wanted the lifestyle MORE than you did your child. 😒🤦🏿♂️
Oh my goodness look at PACs grandma splitting freakin image bro literally. That's insane at least he did get to meet his father and know that he actually wasn't dead like he thought. Amazing ✊🏾
Pac also said “even tho I sell rocks, it’s feels good putting money in your mailbox” but Pac was never a drug dealer. He often wrote lyrics that wasn’t just about him but a reflection of his environment.
He did sell drugs. He just wasn't super deep into it.
@@derrickhoward1543 he said he tried it and said he didn't like it, and stopped doing it cuz it wasn't for him (in marin)
That was the same with Papa’z Song. I do believe Dear Mama was autobiographical though but yeah that dealing part was exaggerated lol
He said he tried selling drugs for two weeks, but he was so bad at it the guy who fronted him eventually asked for his dope back.
