As men, we often call women emotional, catty, messy, and drama queens. However, the bravado, ego, and testosterone of men makes us just the same for real.
This is one of the best interviewers on RUclips. He allows the guest to give clear visual descriptions to the audience, without interruptions. Thank you Sir!
You ain't never lied & most of this shit I already know but it seems like as time goes on its still some shit you done missed out on & we going on over 2 decades 🤦🤦🤦 & shit I need to fly out there & put my series together about death row because that all eyes on me was STRAIGHT TRASH!!! PAC WOULD'VE BEEN SICK TO HIS STOMACH WATCHING THAT!!!
First came in thinking I’d skim through to let talking points and ended up listening to the entire interview. His stories are vivid and amazing, great interviewer, one of the best segment series available right now. Good stuff.
@@terriewoodley2481 If you watch 2pacs interviews theres no one I've seen as smart as him the man was way ahead of his time plus he was young too marvin was good buy 2pac was definitely one of kind and the way he got killed is crazy came out with him on a cross like jesus.
@Queen Bytch Name another rapper who talks like him and last album was him on a cross.He basically was a prophet of modern day times.Definitely smarter then %99 of people of today's society.

Jewell was engaged to my pops during the height of Death Row. Used to take me to the studio however I was too young then to do music. She is my biggest influence to why I chose music to as my career. 💯
Death Row records was full of talented artist Snoop, Tupac, outlaws, Dogg pound, Dr. Dre and more but the energy being put out was 60 to 70 % negative and it came back to bite them. Death Row Records could have been a billion dollar record label and changed every ghetto in America if managed right.
A record label can't change every ghetto in america .. Motown was bigger than death row and it didn't change anything ..u have religious movements that peaked and black actives movements that had a bigger influence in ghettos all over the world and they didn't charge much ..black lives matter today has a bigger influence than any record label ...
@@sugarhillromelo1569 I hear you loud and clear. People confused civil rights with consumer rights. The movement was also fractured into multiple camps with differing opinions and goals. Peace.
People can say what they want about Suge's character and Death Row being an absolute disaster, and most of the time they would be right. But no one can ever say anything about the music they produced and the opportunities they gave unknowns looking to make a name for themselves in the business. Death Row produced the best rap music of our lifetimes up to this point. Tupac remains a legend and almost 25 years since he passed people still want to know about his life.
Kurupt was the nicest lyrically on Death Row by a far margin. Doggystyle era Snoop was a close second! But Kurupt killed anything he touched for a solid 5-6 years in his prime!
@Devin Harris okay. Your mom is a goofy broad for having you. You didn't need to disrespect or call me names for my opinion. But that just worked both ways, yes? Have a wonderful week! 🥰
@Devin Harris talent and addiction are totally unrelated things. You can be very talented and have an addiction at the same time.have a look at Hollywood for instance
Suge gave people a chance at least. I know he handled things a little differently than other CEO's. But still I respect that. They could have ruled the music industry had they just laid low a little. Squash the east vs West beef, or put it on the back burner. Who knows, Pac could still be here too
Salute for another great interview. I got production from Kurt back when I was making music the man is multi talented and very humble good to see him with continued success!
This a classic piece. Art of Dialogue been having the best 2pac related interviews. Suge was a real one! But Damn Death Row had POWER. The the second person to confirm that the jury for Snoops trial also attended the acquittal party, Krazy!

"The jury was at the party rapping" 😂😂😂😂😂. Yo, I died at that part. Somebody, anybody in Hollywood, please make a movie about Death Row Records. I don't think people appreciate the level of power, fuckery and talent involved in this story.
Suge put the carrot infront of so many peoples eyes, using their innocence to manipulate them to his advantage. Once he got what he needed he pulled the stick/string and carrot back. Half the time he’d fuck the person up after, the other half of his victims just got bamboozled financially.

When he mentioned that Tupac was super humble when he let him go through his catalog of beats for him to pick and choose from for free and to take anything he wanted his appreciative side came out because he is someone who constantly gives it. Make sure everybody around him is taken care of that is no lie anybody who knows 2Pac knows this of his character. And that is actually a rule to success. Every single super successful person knows you always give at least minimum 10 to 20% of everything that comes in. those who follow this rule see some mind-boggling coincidences all the time. It’s all king Jesus created this world. It’s part of the formula to success. Anyhow, if you’re a person who constantly gives and someone you run into matches that energy you get super hyped up about that person because there is not a lot of people who follow this rule, or who is generous in this world that is why people do not follow that rule, but if you can do it even when you’re broke, and just give whatever you have if it’s a quarter then it’s a quarter, but whatever you give constantly get in that mode no matter how wealthy you are at the moment.
And remember Suge Knight made David Kenner and Sharitha strip naked in a desert for fuckin around....now tell me do you think a dude with connects like Kenner is going to take that lightly?
Then that coward Snoop turned around and dissed Suge while he was locked up and Suge the only reason his disloyal ass not doing life in prison right now.
Making Snead come to the acquittal and dinner, was just to humiliate him. Even though he was loyal to Dr.Dre, he thought that Dre would give him a deal with aftermath, but it did not happen. Dre was not loyal to the people under him.
These guys had an empire and some of the best Djs and rappers ever. The rappers now dont have anything on the old rappers. The old had a story to tell and you could understand. Thats why i love me some 2pac and listen to his music all the time. To all the old rappers and Djs thanks for the memorys. Because you are the best ever. Rest in peace 2pac, biggie ,easy e and nate dog.
The young rappers still tell stories and are talented its just us old 80's babies have different morales and values than these kids today so the music still represents a story its just stories of a life that we disagree with
@@Rue100 Not exactly “wayyyyyy” better, but definitely different, and to say that there are no legendary rappers of today is an intellectually dishonest statement, you have J Cole, Kendrick, Kevin Gates, Logic, Joyner, Eminem (who’s old and new school tbh), Joey Badass, Pusha-T , And many more people so.............👌🏾
Mannn shout out to the legendary KURUPT aka YOUNG GOTTI. I don’t know if many would stand up for a friend of a friend facing the kind of wrath 2PAC was on at that time. That’s some real loyal ass ish to the 100th power.
Kurupt was and still is a Rollin60!!!!! They knew better than to try that bs. Especially with one of the most biggest an notorious gangs of all.!!!! MOB piru ain’t Fuccin us.. they wasn’t soft either but they knew they’re limits😎🔵
This was a good interview. I love the story telling about everything and the part about the Sam Sneed incident from beginning to end was hilarious and very entertaining. 😅🤣😭
It's hard to keep in mind that most of these people were extremely young and from the streets. They did so many things wrong, but it's impressive that these people accomplished so much. It would've been interesting if the heads were older mature and had more industry seasoning how far the label would've went
Like everything #FBA #DoAS does and have done in every industry in America! "Make a way out of no way, and take that all the way"! And if people, whyte record industry would mind their f'kg business, Black folks would work it out! Not perfect, but always work it out...
@Aaron Mack - Credit given. I just said he still would have messed it up because he got it through bullying but that didn't last long because some people won't except that. If you got it that way and run across the wrong people....well you see how many people he came across that wasn't having it.
“Toy and gaming company Hasbro has divested itself as the parent company of Death Row Records. Hypebeast reports Hasbro sold eOne Music for $385 million in cash to the investment company Blackstone. Chris Taylor will continue to serve as eOne Music President after it becomes an independent company.”
Suge said Kurupt would be a gatekeeper. He would battle rappers that wanna be on Death Row, if they could hang with Kurupt, then they would get a record deal.
Suge employed a lot of black men who were boxed out by the rest of society. He wasn’t a Saint, but he loved his people, and wanted to see black people win. MC Hammer, Pac, etc, these were men who had talent but were boxed out. He made them larger than life. Salute to the OG.
Suge was a wanna be gangsta who grew up rich...was only motivated by money an had no loyalties but to himself...he was a woman beater an ripped off his own artists so yeah what a great guy smh LMAO.
Suge was a business man who got caught up trying to uphold the LA street standard of a real gangster. Most of the dudes from LA back then was gangbanging and you had to choose a side. Being back amongst that environment after a brief taste of celebrity world as a NFL player and bodyguard, I think he got caught up trying to prove he was more than just a suit at a desk. Most of these stories reveal the immaturity in him and Pac back then. Real gangstas would've known who not to fuck with that night in Vegas
@@qbconnect That night in Vegas just happened to be the night that Tupac got his. Even though Tupac wasn't in the streets, he dealt with more street issues than a lot of today's rappers. The point is that Pac and Suge had been beating up people and maybe even ordered hits on people--Suge definitely did that. Being a famous rapper, I doubt Pac ever thought about being shot up after such an event, the Tyson fight, in the middle of Las Vegas. But the people messed with were real gangsters that didn't care who he was.
@@TechyGamerVibeZ he went to lynnwood..the same school that weird al yankovic went to lol which can't be compared to others in the area. Plus his much better upbringing is explained in a very popular documentary an not so much online. He played football an went to college ...never banged.
This is literally one of the craziest interviews I have ever seen. The craziness has nothing to do with the interviewee or the interviewer. The craziness is totally about the drama in Death Row Records during the middle 1990s.
95/96 DR was definitely off the chain! Hundreds of millions of dollars, women everywhere, beef with whoever, rolling up 20 deep to a fight, club, show, gun play. It was RECKLESS!!
Even crazier was the end of DR....Suge literally signed 2 rappers who were obvious rip offs of Snoop and Pac and had them dissing everyone who was jumping ship especially Snoop and Dre....Suge even posted Snoop’s address on the DR website with a threatening caption saying something about someone should bring him some doggy treats. Honestly if Snoop didn’t sign to No Limit and move down south to work with Master P, Suge would have done something to him.
@@thealchemist5761 because loyalty means that i am loyal to whom is loyal to me . In this case Kurupt is loyal to Snoop therefore he wouldn’t let Snoops friend get beat
If then black men put in on a black owned distribution company ,I wonder where would the black community be? Black people's very way of just being talented is being used and profitable to the wrong people and it needs to stop. No hate just my opinion
@@leonhenry4861 well until someone steps up , the certain group will continue to promote their version of what black people are versus who we truly are . Black men need to stop wanting to be and acting like the men of the certain group. Stand on what you should be building versus being involved in a system that wasn't ment for your people we need our own.
@@joannamrs7892 facts, but thats my point nobody will step up. it's 2021 surely somebody could have been distributing our music / movies by now. Death Row was big nearly 30 years ago and we've gone backwards, we don't have any more label owners now than we did then.
@@carlosbaker7825 facts my g. suge needed to step back and be a proper boss and not a thug running around with other thugs. I also disliked how he payed off Orlando Anderson and not give any money to people who actually put work in for Death Row.
This dude has the best personal story since, "Charlie & The Chocolate Factory." And, all of this is a fan's insider dream. Great storyteller, too. Write a book, y'all.
Great interview s/o to the interviewer for letting him speak i love everything about 2 Pac & Easy true legends none before none after💐👑💕💖🕊the rap game is sugar water now
He is a well respected man I attended his Cellular Biology 2020 Harvardx I had no idea. Although I only knew him on Harvardx online course.. I never spoke to him , I didn't even know he was ill. His passion for research has truly left a mark on me . If you know his family 👪 Let them know And I am sure all the students that hear this awful news will be praying for his soul and blessings to all his family 👪 Belfast Ireland 🇮🇪 😎
Has to be the top, most insightful Death Row story I've ever heard. Damn, dude didn't hold back. Really painted a picture for us of how that shit really was. I could see everything unfolding.
I LOVE hearing all these back stories. This shit be so intriguing to me because I'm from Tha Bronx, but have ALWAYS loved that shit that came from tha West! It was just straight 🔥🔥 to me! 🤷🏽♀️
Love hearing the perspective from the East coast. Always had me curious what people think about crazy Death Row stories from out here. It all really had a trickle down effect on a lot of us all over California. I knew peeps who knew Pac from Oakland and worked with Shock G myself.
@@macck4350 My VERY 1st introduction was, of course, F*ck Tha Police by NWA! I was with my friend in his car rollin' down White Plains Road. He said, "Yo, I want your militant ass to hear somethin'." He popped that tape in and I SCREAMED! 😳 "Yo, who IS this?" He told me who they were, and I tried turning the music UP! My friend was like, "Girl, you trying to get us LOCKED tha f*uck up? We can't play this shit all loud! You crazy?!" I will NEVER forget it. Been hooked ever since!
They need to do a movie or even a tv series on Deathrow. I would watch it for sure it’s amazing that deathrow is still relevant today and have so many crazy stories
That was not Sam at the table in the movie. Sam was in a red room meeting. And after he got attacked and bruised. He went to snoops party. Poor Sam SMH 🤦♂️
In an interview Daz said loud and clear the reason Death Row fell apart was bc of Michell'e. She was in a relationship with Dre, Pac was smashing her, and she was giving it up to Suge. Hurt people hurt people. A phone call and jump to conclusions is not proof that Dre is gay. She could've made it up out of spite from being in a toxic relationship with Dre
This man has had an interesting life. Gave his demo tape and His first day in the death row scene.. he was in a meeting of producers though he wasn't even a producer. Lol. I've never heard of this from anyone else. Pretty neat experience.

It’s all king Jesus created this world. It’s part of the formula to success. Anyhow, if you’re a person who constantly gives and someone you run into matches that energy you get super hyped up about that person because there is not a lot of people who follow this rule, or who is generous in this world that is why people do not follow that rule, but if you can do it even when you’re broke, and just give whatever you have if it’s a quarter then it’s a quarter, but whatever you give constantly get in that mode no matter how wealthy you are at the moment.
The is one of the best Death Row stories I've heard. His high level of detail created a movie. I need to hear more stories from this guy
Real spill from a guy who was on the ground floor and a interviewer who does his job correctly 👏🏾
It’s well known Snoop only beat that case because of the POWER of David Kenner. Suge had something MAJOR!!!
Right Right....
I still think Snoop was the shooter
And remember Suge Knight made David Kenner and Sharitha strip naked in a desert for fuckin around....now tell me do you think a dude with connects like Kenner is going to take that lightly?
David Kenner was Harry O attorney
Then that coward Snoop turned around and dissed Suge while he was locked up and Suge the only reason his disloyal ass not doing life in prison right now.
I know artists like to take a play off of another name but this is pushing it way too far with the Kurt Kobane
Making Snead come to the acquittal and dinner, was just to humiliate him. Even though he was loyal to Dr.Dre, he thought that Dre would give him a deal with aftermath, but it did not happen. Dre was not loyal to the people under him.
I could listen to old Pac stories all day and night.. Kobane a real one. Glad Art of Dialogue finally hit 100K subs. Salute..
Yessir
He lying tho 😂😂😂
Me too. I've loved Tupac since I was 4 years old now and I'm almost 29💜 The man was great!
His chain look fake
Why?
These guys had an empire and some of the best Djs and rappers ever. The rappers now dont have anything on the old rappers. The old had a story to tell and you could understand. Thats why i love me some 2pac and listen to his music all the time. To all the old rappers and Djs thanks for the memorys. Because you are the best ever. Rest in peace 2pac, biggie ,easy e and nate dog.
SOOO TRUE...THE OLD RAPPERS WERE WAYYYYYY MORE TALENTED THAN THESE YOUNGER ONES OF TODAYV..STRAIGHT FACTS
The young rappers still tell stories and are talented its just us old 80's babies have different morales and values than these kids today so the music still represents a story its just stories of a life that we disagree with
@@yungcampdachamp8301 everybody sounds the same plus almost everybody use auto tunes ==trash
@@fj5492 Not exactly true, there’s talented rappers today. J Cole, Kendrick, push’s T, Joey Badass etc
@@Rue100 Not exactly “wayyyyyy” better, but definitely different, and to say that there are no legendary rappers of today is an intellectually dishonest statement, you have J Cole, Kendrick, Kevin Gates, Logic, Joyner, Eminem (who’s old and new school tbh), Joey Badass, Pusha-T , And many more people so.............👌🏾
The content this channel brings is unmatched
Mannn shout out to the legendary KURUPT aka YOUNG GOTTI. I don’t know if many would stand up for a friend of a friend facing the kind of wrath 2PAC was on at that time. That’s some real loyal ass ish to the 100th power.
Kurupt was and still is a Rollin60!!!!! They knew better than to try that bs. Especially with one of the most biggest an notorious gangs of all.!!!! MOB piru ain’t Fuccin us.. they wasn’t soft either but they knew they’re limits😎🔵
Several stories of Kurupt being a standup guy. Definitely a real 1
This isn't the first time Pac n Kurupt got into a face off
When you got Draws, Big U, Big C Style, Tray Deee and Joe Cool vouching for you, you’re good in any hood.
Pac and Kurupt should of just catch the fade and got it over with. It was a lot tension between them two on a few occasions.
You gotta drop the next part ASAP! this interview got me in tears
Kenner was a powerful dude because he had connections within the DA...They was getting paid millions under the table from Suge Knight through Kenner.
He also had ties to JDL
@Purple rain & pancakes Yep they're powerful in the industry
@Purple rain & pancakes what is jdl
@Purple rain & pancakes thx
I’d love to know more on Kenner how he grew up etc
This was a good interview. I love the story telling about everything and the part about the Sam Sneed incident from beginning to end was hilarious and very entertaining. 😅🤣😭
Death row was full of talent but destroyed by egos out of control.
SHUGE
DEATHROW RECORDS IS A BIG PART OF HISTORY!
I'm Glad I was in that Era.😎
Not the computer revolution, not 9/11, not covid......but death row? Huh!
@@johnsmith2797 Hell Yeah!!!
It's hard to keep in mind that most of these people were extremely young and from the streets. They did so many things wrong, but it's impressive that these people accomplished so much. It would've been interesting if the heads were older mature and had more industry seasoning how far the label would've went
Like everything #FBA #DoAS does and have done in every industry in America! "Make a way out of no way, and take that all the way"! And if people, whyte record industry would mind their f'kg business, Black folks would work it out! Not perfect, but always work it out...
Suge would have still messed it up even in his older age.
You're probably right, but he still deserves credit for what he accomplished
@Aaron Mack - Credit given. I just said he still would have messed it up because he got it through bullying but that didn't last long because some people won't except that. If you got it that way and run across the wrong people....well you see how many people he came across that wasn't having it.
@@brassknucks2548 I definitely didn't expect him to make it past the nineties, but somehow he had managed.
You can always tell when someone is telling a story, who's really down and who's speaking from shit they heard 2nd hand.
Hard to tell. Hehe seen a prison documentary years ago with a couple gay crips in lockup..

Shout out to Kurupt for standing tall for the homie.
Suge said Kurupt would be a gatekeeper. He would battle rappers that wanna be on Death Row, if they could hang with Kurupt, then they would get a record deal.

Probably because of all the shit he took

@@simmy6495 suge ain’t a threat no more. He been getting knocked out for years
@@Fuq2 This ain't crime 🤡, this is a man telling his own story.
Kurrupt was legit. Eazy E and Mob James Vouched for him.
RIP Kurt Kobane! Gone but never forgotten 🙏
How he passed?
Sorry for Kirk he seemed SO damage and he wanted to talk...
What happened to him?
Damn they kill him
Killed himself! 🤣
Suge employed a lot of black men who were boxed out by the rest of society. He wasn’t a Saint, but he loved his people, and wanted to see black people win. MC Hammer, Pac, etc, these were men who had talent but were boxed out. He made them larger than life. Salute to the OG.
Suge was a wanna be gangsta who grew up rich...was only motivated by money an had no loyalties but to himself...he was a woman beater an ripped off his own artists so yeah what a great guy smh LMAO.
Suge was a business man who got caught up trying to uphold the LA street standard of a real gangster. Most of the dudes from LA back then was gangbanging and you had to choose a side. Being back amongst that environment after a brief taste of celebrity world as a NFL player and bodyguard, I think he got caught up trying to prove he was more than just a suit at a desk. Most of these stories reveal the immaturity in him and Pac back then. Real gangstas would've known who not to fuck with that night in Vegas
@@qbconnect That night in Vegas just happened to be the night that Tupac got his. Even though Tupac wasn't in the streets, he dealt with more street issues than a lot of today's rappers. The point is that Pac and Suge had been beating up people and maybe even ordered hits on people--Suge definitely did that. Being a famous rapper, I doubt Pac ever thought about being shot up after such an event, the Tyson fight, in the middle of Las Vegas. But the people messed with were real gangsters that didn't care who he was.
@@singood7790 Suge grew up in Compton. He did not grow up rich
@@TechyGamerVibeZ he went to lynnwood..the same school that weird al yankovic went to lol which can't be compared to others in the area. Plus his much better upbringing is explained in a very popular documentary an not so much online. He played football an went to college ...never banged.
This is literally one of the craziest interviews I have ever seen. The craziness has nothing to do with the interviewee or the interviewer. The craziness is totally about the drama in Death Row Records during the middle 1990s.
95/96 DR was definitely off the chain! Hundreds of millions of dollars, women everywhere, beef with whoever, rolling up 20 deep to a fight, club, show, gun play. It was RECKLESS!!
The craziness rap stars try to replicate today.
@@christophercomitini8619 damn sounds like 2020 without corona and niggaz dnt fight no more
@@CEETV214 😐... OMG I'm WEAKKK!!!! 😂😩😭😭😭
Even crazier was the end of DR....Suge literally signed 2 rappers who were obvious rip offs of Snoop and Pac and had them dissing everyone who was jumping ship especially Snoop and Dre....Suge even posted Snoop’s address on the DR website with a threatening caption saying something about someone should bring him some doggy treats. Honestly if Snoop didn’t sign to No Limit and move down south to work with Master P, Suge would have done something to him.
They got Sam because he was down with Dre. He was warned not to show up at that meeting but Sam didn’t “RECOGNIZE.”
Yes, dre warned him not to go to that meeting as did j flex but those who don't listen must feel
Now I understand why 2pac died premature he was living foul you Reap what U sow Suge in jail for the rest of his life shot out to Sam 🔥 track he made

So glad I found this channel. It’s refreshing! And the comments seem to agree!
I went to High School with Sam Sneed. Good and Talented Guy, He is alive and well, on social media and respected. I’m glad he got out of there.
He survived Death Row. Gaaaawd damn.
Things that didn't happen for $500 Alex.
Why do we laugh at each other's pain? What if you are Sam Snead how would you feel? Would you want someone laughing at you?
I didn't see nothing funny AT ALL about someone innocent being beat up!! That's why he's one of the ones still standing besides DRE!!
👏👏👏👏👏
Thats whats wrong with it all...too much of that Thug ish
Sounds like someone who got his ass whooped and got laughed at
kurt got beat up too lol
The jury being at Snoops acquittal party is WILD LOL
“The jury was at the party. Rapping” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 took me out!
This channel passed Vlad TV for Tupac interviews. Dope content
A friend of Tha Dawg Pound is a friend of mine. That's the realest quote in this interview.

That's crazy as hell. Tupac got shot at quad studios of course he didn't want randoms in the studio.
@@thealchemist5761 werd i can understand both sides
@@Cashmere__ Really? If Pac didn't want randoms in his session, I don't understand why Kurupt even cared.

Love it or hate it,Death row produced the most legendary music that no other label has or will ever achieve.
Shut up
Shady aftermath ?
Yeah ok all satans influence so what?
He said everyone was eating and Sam Sneed was just sitting right there with a plate full of food 😂😂😂

that part had me dying 😂😂

That part was funny😂
Lmao
Yo I like Kurt kobains story about his journey in the music business, as a Hip hop producer, very inspirational, his struggles to be successful,
The beginning is very inspirational. We all give up too soon on their dream. I needed this.
Def Row turned suge into a God like figure, in which that he was not. Now, suge can sit and pray to the one and only true God. Jesus Christ is King.

underrated comment
If then black men put in on a black owned distribution company ,I wonder where would the black community be? Black people's very way of just being talented is being used and profitable to the wrong people and it needs to stop. No hate just my opinion
Nothing stopping us from distributing, nobody wants to do it because they too busy trying to be alllllll in the videoossssss.
@@leonhenry4861 well until someone steps up , the certain group will continue to promote their version of what black people are versus who we truly are . Black men need to stop wanting to be and acting like the men of the certain group. Stand on what you should be building versus being involved in a system that wasn't ment for your people we need our own.
@@joannamrs7892 facts, but thats my point nobody will step up. it's 2021 surely somebody could have been distributing our music / movies by now. Death Row was big nearly 30 years ago and we've gone backwards, we don't have any more label owners now than we did then.
@@leonhenry4861 the very same people that created death row destroy it
@@carlosbaker7825 facts my g. suge needed to step back and be a proper boss and not a thug running around with other thugs. I also disliked how he payed off Orlando Anderson and not give any money to people who actually put work in for Death Row.
I will never scroll past a interview about Deathrow records! The best stories.
Krupt and Men like him from the Street Will FOREVER have my Respect. Better Men than Most, just have to be given the chance. They’re Solid AF
This dude has the best personal story since, "Charlie & The Chocolate Factory." And, all of this is a fan's insider dream. Great storyteller, too. Write a book, y'all.

Great interview
Mr. Roger Troutman
I saw your last name before I read the comment👐 would love to hear more about Roger on a channel,dude is a legend

Has to be the top, most insightful Death Row story I've ever heard. Damn, dude didn't hold back. Really painted a picture for us of how that shit really was. I could see everything unfolding.
I LOVE hearing all these back stories. This shit be so intriguing to me because I'm from Tha Bronx, but have ALWAYS loved that shit that came from tha West! It was just straight 🔥🔥 to me! 🤷🏽♀️
Love hearing the perspective from the East coast. Always had me curious what people think about crazy Death Row stories from out here. It all really had a trickle down effect on a lot of us all over California. I knew peeps who knew Pac from Oakland and worked with Shock G myself.
Same! From bk
And a lot of us from the west love the york sound.

We can't play this shit all loud! You crazy?!" I will NEVER forget it. Been hooked ever since!
They need to do a movie or even a tv series on Deathrow. I would watch it for sure it’s amazing that deathrow is still relevant today and have so many crazy stories
Or like a death row inspired tv show....with the names changed but the characters obvious lol kinda like snow fall

That was not Sam at the table in the movie. Sam was in a red room meeting. And after he got attacked and bruised. He went to snoops party. Poor Sam SMH 🤦♂️
The did Sam dirty he coulda been a vital part of mending this EC v WC beef
To the dinner you mean some lady talked about it on an interview
Yeah Sam got ruffled up but he still went to a few death row events afterwards to keep up appearances so it didn't look like he was tripping
The jury was at the party 🎉 The interview guy ... WTf. 😂😂😂
In an interview Daz said loud and clear the reason Death Row fell apart was bc of Michell'e. She was in a relationship with Dre, Pac was smashing her, and she was giving it up to Suge. Hurt people hurt people. A phone call and jump to conclusions is not proof that Dre is gay. She could've made it up out of spite from being in a toxic relationship with Dre
She has a kid with Dre and one with Suge
A scorned woman will also tell your biggest secret too.
@@sweetpea1847 yup
Nah he's gay
She wasn't the only one calling him gay though
This man has had an interesting life. Gave his demo tape and His first day in the death row scene.. he was in a meeting of producers though he wasn't even a producer. Lol. I've never heard of this from anyone else. Pretty neat experience.
