It is crazy I don't know my dad really and my aunt's and everybody that met me say I do certain things and act a certain way that's exactly like my father! It's is really somthen!
When he was repeating the phrase "for my people", the tone he said it with reminded me of when Tupac was telling rappers on the east coast to remember the lack of compassion "when he got out" in his last Vibe interview. Not sure if anyone else will know what i mean but hopefully somebody catches my drift lmaoo
PAC often spoke on not being the actual person who would lead our ppl back to greatness. But he did say that he would spark the person that would. His FATHER made a decision to give up college and a promising basketball career to join the Black Panther Party. That SPARK decision lead to meeting the women which whom he would spark a love that would birth Tupac…….The Creator has a plan you will never Overstand.
Listening to 2pac’s father is almost like listening to 2pac himself… it’s a shame his mom kept them apart and it’s also a shame his father did not fight hard enough to find him 🤷🏽♂️. But damn 2pac takes alot after his father no doubt 💯
Pac knew he would be remembered and talked about like this. Have you heard that recording of him saying how if he won’t change the world himself, in his lifetime, he will be the one to spark the brain that will change the world. People make Tupac’s life about the music or the drama, but he stood for so much more than just music or entertainment, and I think we all are aware of that subconsciously, which is why… the man’s name will outlive ours… and all of the people who talk about him now.
One video he stated he was taking Afeni back and forth to make sure his baby's mother would be safe but now he's stating he didn't know Tupac was his son until he was born. 🤔
He was her driver because the panther party assigned them to be ....I think that is the only reason he was taking her back and forth is because it was his job ...yeah glad you caught that
It is sad that all of those issues he mentions about why he joined the Black Panthers are still all problems today 😢😢😢. Its nothing new under the sun. History always repeats itself 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
I respect him. But to keep saying 2Pac, mom is the reason U wasn't in his life 🙄 come on. And now saying everyone knew in the Black Pather Party. But none ever said it to 2Pac
there's an interview where a former panther lady spoke about hearing Pac talk about him not having a father and she was surprised cause everyone knew and his pops was still alive but she felt it wasn't her place.
@@dennisflo9284 that’s dumb asf and that’s doesn’t even make sense ZERO sense so apparent everyone knows who this man’s father was and not ONE PERSON bothered to tell him? I call complete bs on that
The more Mr. Garland speaks the more info can see where Pac gets a lot of his charisma and intelligence from the same as when Afeni speaks and when I got to meet her. I wish Mr Garland was more involved in Pac’s Life, Pac could have possibly have been even bigger than what he was when he was alive…..
Afeni was blocking him out of his life the whole time. She didn’t want the man around pac because she was milking pac for everything she wanted. He barely could even talk to pac since he was so all over the place before he passed on.
You don’t know what you talkin about and secondly his “step father” which he knew wasn’t his fuccin father just got released from prison only because he’s dying !!! He’s sicc that’s the only reason they released him do your research before you start giving your bullshit opinion, it’s like Tupac father is everybody “opp” or some shit ! Let the fuccin man tell his story n stfu
@@Roqui2009 She knew. That's well established now. Pac and Afeni even had arguments about it when he found she had lied to him his whole life. Imagine the trauma that would have caused him. Not to mention all the time he lost out on with his siblings. You can see from his letters how much he wanted them in his life.
My question to him is if he knew he was the father, why didn't he assume the responsibility and go get Pac. After all he knew she had the baby and she wasn't on the run. Where were you for 20 years
He's trying to act like he was trying his damndest to find Pac before the fame. He's trying to rewrite HISstory. He's mad at Afeni when he should be mad at himself. A Poor black single mother is not gonna be able to elude anyone. Panthers had a network whereby I'm pretty sure he could have located Afeni and Pac with a few phone calls if he really wanted to. If he wanted to get them some money I'm sure that could have been accomplished. It wasn't the dark ages. They had mutual associates the whole time. When Pac became famous he pops up. Then tells that hella weird story of confirming Pac is his son by looking at his balls and johnson and thinking "yep that's my son". That story confirmed for me Billy is a weirdo. Now he's just trying to come to grips with his shoddy relation to his son after the fact when all crucial parties are dead and he can say anything and attribute it to them. And It breaks my heart 😅 that he's trying to shade Afeni for clout. Ultimately she raised him to adulthood. And He made sure to provide for her once he was capable.
Tupac also gestured, when he spoke like Garland. Tupac was talkative, liked to express his thoughts like Garland and Tupac had such voice, like his biological father
Don’t get me wrong, I think this is one of the greatest interviews on this platform. But the interviewer is all over the place with these questions. He jumps to timeline to timeline and then goes back and forth. I’m just saying focus on Billy‘s time with the black panthers and then build your way up to 2Pac relationship. #Justsaying.
@@timmy841212 That's a bogus ahh title to. Right u claiming to be in his life up till age 5 but at the same time another man was claiming to be his dad too. Dude don't be telling full story.
I would like to ask him about the WIC program. It was stated that the black panthers started that program and of course when the government saw it working, they somehow took over.
This guy is just ranting and ranting and not making any sense. Again the boy still lived in Harlem/Bronx until 1985. That was 14 years you could’ve stepped up Billy. You were married with other children. You vanished until Bellevue and then vanished again after Pac left jail. And then trying to stress that you and Afeni were lovers at one point when you both had lovers. Come on Mr. “It broke my heart” Garland.
chasing after your child destroys you psychologically. You only know that when you go through shit like that yourself. none of us were there but i think billy is an honest guy..god bless him
I can’t imagine what it’s like *wanting* to be a true present father and having it stolen from you in the way he did and then having to listen to all his son’s songs talking about him negatively S/O to all the single fathers and fathers that fought (for the chance too) to be in their kids lives🫡
He out here tryna eat of Pacs name like all the other parasites out here, including this fake ass channel. Took this Nicca until Afeni died to come out here and talk some shit.

I think yall messed up the title. “ He didn’t want to be Pac dad until Pac was Famous”. What a shame, keep throwing a woman under the bus thats not here to defend herself, thats a coward and I don’t care how old he is. Black people are too emotional, thats why we stay stuck, anybody can tell us anything and we go for it.
Just because she was Pac’s “mother”, doesn’t mean she was infallible. Most of these single mothers, dare I say, alienate children from their fathers and make-up these false narratives that the dad is a “deadbeat” when in fact, the mothers do everything in their power to prevent the children from getting to know/see their fathers… you had no problem accepting her narrative even though we never heard from him, well, now the brother gets a chance to tell his side of the story. The truth is usually somewhere in the middle…
You really gît serious problem with me. Dont compare this Real man to your sowcold. Afeni did Bad and every Real and honest people knows that. PAC got really mad against her Mother. Imagine somebody took your kid that period of Time and dissapear with your son. She made lot of Bad mistakes. If PAC got earlier his father. He will destroy everything in thé positive Way' Ya see Snake Snoop , he got his whole family and they protected him. They helped him. Please close it . Tier to put your Fking Darkness energy on these beautiful talk. Respect PAC father @Darkside and lovelyblablaaa
All im saying is if Pac was making amends with his father, who the hell are we to judge this man?! If the G.O.A.T himself who suffered his absence was open minded enough to hear this man's reasons for not being there...then why the hell are we trippin?! Im just enjoying the interview and the little glimpses of Pac that i get from his father. R.I.P. to the greatest ❤️🔥
You were never his dad, until after his fame. You didn’t want to bothered with him, while he was poor. If he wasn’t Pac the star, you probably wouldn’t be checking for him.
He made a bad decision choosing the panthers over basketball if he could have continued his basketball career and became financially successful he could have done more with more resources financially to help the community in any way he saw fit
Bad decision in YOUR opinion but if it wasn't for people like him that sacrificed their future for OUR future we wouldn't have the present we have be grateful there was people like him
Tupac was a rapper. TUPAC WAS A RAPPER! JUST A RAPPER! He was a RAPPER with A GREAT MESSAGE ( AT TIMES) but he was still JUST A RAPPER! I'm in his age group and I remember those times. He talked about things that should be done, could be done and needed to be done. Remember, he didn't die putting his life on the line for BLACK PEOPLE! HE DIED GETTING INVOLVED IN SOME N*GGA SHIT! Sad to say but true. HE IS NO MARTUR! HE DIDN'T DIE FOR THE CAUSE! MALCOM, MARTIN,MEDGER,FRED HAMPTON all died for the cause along with many unsung heroes and heroins. He's just not that folks and I LOVE "DEAR MAMA" , "KEEP YA HEAD UP" and others but I haven't lost my ability to keep things in perspective and cling to REALITY! TALENTED ARTIST! But so many have tried to make a MARTUR out of him and that's not the case. SORRY!
Nigga you said a bunch of nonsense he was down for the cause maybe more than all of the ones you mentioned he was just 25 and was doing young nigga bullshit but was still learning you are dumb as hell saying that smh 🤦🏽♂️ kill Martin and Malcolm at 25 and what would they be nothing nobody they got to live longer than PAC had PAC lived he would have the powers that be even more scared and feared than Malcolm or Martin would have cause PAC was fearless and was down for the cause do you think they would have shot two people messing with a black man and didn’t care about the consequences lol 😂 Nigga Tupac was the one it’s just he was still young doing young dumb shit and it unfortunately caught up with him
Not taking anything away from the BROTHA. He was a very talented artist. His parents were REVOLUTIONARIES and those influences found their way into his music. I personally like PRE-DEATH ROW Tupac. I remember when he was with DIGITAL UNDERGROUND. He was dancing first and then he had a verse on SAME SONG! You could immediately tell he was going to be a star. Do I think he's the G.O.A.T? NO! I have forgotten more RAPPERS/M.C.'S than most people here have probably heard. So my opinion is based in facts. He has sold more records than any other rapper but that's POPULARITY! HE ATTENDED A PRIVATE SCHOOL FOR THE ARTS and that means he was PROFESSIONALLY TRAINED! Most guys in the business didn't have that luxury. So his skill was in his writing
For All 2pac and Pac Father Haters, Hail Mary and run quick See who mad at ya All. Big Respect to this ma' who fought for human rights. Blood never lie.
AFENI WAS A CRACK HEAD AND KICKED TUPAC OUT WHEN HE WAS 17 soooooooooooooooooooo WE NOT GONNA SPEAK ON THAT ????!!! But y’all love bashing Tupacs father it seems to me that you wanna be his father or something 😂😂😂
@@Ricosumpter Why would we speak about Tupac's relationship with his mother? They weren't estranged when he passed away and she had gotten off of drugs. I don't understand why fans bring that up as if that has anything to do with Mr. Garland. Mr. Garland did not contribute to Tupac's upbringing at all, nor was he heavily involved in his life after Tupac got out of prison. Does that make him a bad person? No! But let's not make the man more than what he was.
@@Roqui2009 you obviously wanna be wit mr garland or something the way you on this man’s nuts !!! 😂🤦🏾♂️🤡 stop bashing this man like you fuccin know him end of discussion shorty!
@@alanduff1054 YEAH!!! My professor also said that he got his craziness in his mental illness from his mother she did him dirty.. - asking for 30k then she would gamble the money all and and ask for more - Tupac ask for a house , she ask for a bigger house , a car and she say in ain't new enough - and there's no telling what she was doing when she was smoking crack - and just LIED OUTRIGHT LIED TO HIM ABOUT HIS FATHER JUST OUTRIGHT DIRTY! Doesn't surprise me though! She was on some ghetto rachet 🐂 💩 how you ask for 30k ,blow it like it's nothing , after your child worked hard for it and ask for more ... TRASH!!! 🗑️
Please leave Afeni alone!🤦♀️ the only parent who kept her child and took responsibility of him. You admitted you knew he was your son since born! This title is so disrespectful. Let her spirit rest in peace. She was a single Black mother and he has the audacity to accuse her of alterior motives. She raised the child that you abandoned and didnt care to earn money to provide for your son. These men have audacity!
A lot of weak men and misogynists holding up a absent father as the hero lol and putting down the mother who fed and raised her son with no child support.

He could have spoke on all of this while Tupacs mother was still alive. I think maybe he should just let it go now and stfu.
Tupac wanted him to stay out of the spotlight maybe.
But he was talking before Afeni died.
Interesting...
It's crazy Afeni said Billy was dead and he out lived them both. Smh
PAC is still here
I think yall messed up the title. “ He didn’t want to be Pac dad until Pac was Famous”. What a shame, keep throwing a woman under the bus thats not here to defend herself, thats a coward and I don’t care how old he is. Black people are too emotional, thats why we stay stuck, anybody can tell us anything and we go for it.
Facts
Sounds like u the one that’s emotional
@@peedot39 oh ok🙄
Very sad.
Just because she was Pac’s “mother”, doesn’t mean she was infallible. Most of these single mothers, dare I say, alienate children from their fathers and make-up these false narratives that the dad is a “deadbeat” when in fact, the mothers do everything in their power to prevent the children from getting to know/see their fathers… you had no problem accepting her narrative even though we never heard from him, well, now the brother gets a chance to tell his side of the story. The truth is usually somewhere in the middle…
This is quite a story
Its funny how u can't find anything on Google about matumba
3:46 wow......no Leggs
I am a British born Indian, we believe tupac to be a avatar of goddess kali, alot of fans won't understand me, example modern day jesus.
He’s still blaming Afeni as to why he wasn’t in Pac life. He chose not to be fr.
Exactly!!!
Right 💯
Afeni told her son that his father was dead.
You really gît serious problem with me. Dont compare this Real man to your sowcold. Afeni did Bad and every Real and honest people knows that. PAC got really mad against her Mother. Imagine somebody took your kid that period of Time and dissapear with your son. She made lot of Bad mistakes. If PAC got earlier his father. He will destroy everything in thé positive Way'
Ya see Snake Snoop , he got his whole family and they protected him. They helped him.
Please close it . Tier to put your Fking Darkness energy on these beautiful talk. Respect PAC father @Darkside and lovelyblablaaa
@user-ot2rw5gu2s he just said he was always 2pacs father. As far as him and afenis relationship So why didnt he come around??
Did you come around Tupac when he was a child. Cause Pac say in interviews he thought the other guy was his father...I'm kinda confused now.
Well HE claims he was in PAC’s life until 3-5 (well he’s not sure lol in 2000, he said 5, here he says 3 😅).
I really enjoyed his interview it’s great to see the man where pac came from instead of hearing it from other people he’s the last parent alive
All im saying is if Pac was making amends with his father, who the hell are we to judge this man?! If the G.O.A.T himself who suffered his absence was open minded enough to hear this man's reasons for not being there...then why the hell are we trippin?! Im just enjoying the interview and the little glimpses of Pac that i get from his father. R.I.P. to the greatest ❤️🔥
Exactly 💯
⭐⭐ We'll Have A Race of Babies That Will HATE The Ladies -Tupac Shakur ⭐⭐
He predicted what we now see today
And look at the comment section lately. Pac knew.
Yes and now look at all these athletes
@@timmy841212 it's crazy how much foresight he had
Pac didn’t get any of his Pops hoop skills😂
Nah but he could box though so he inherited some of his athleticism 😂
@@jaigriggs3878 And he had aim🐐
or bowling skills lol
Pac got his mother heart and he had rapping skills. That’s all that matters.
Get afeni sister next!
She would never 👎🏽
I thought Pac said in a song that his dad passed away.... Could have just being artistic..I Know he said it for sure .
BRO JUST DROP THE WHOLE INTERVIEW GOD DAMN. LOVE U ART BUT THIS CONFUSING AF
farrakhan admited to one of those killings
Any one else see that weird ass ad ?
50 points first game
Bobby Kennedy 🕊️
At this point let 2pac rest and find something else to talk about.
Stop watching. This is good history
@@jsanders9975 it's good history because you all up in the business.
@@ADA_746 It's called an interview.
Is he related to Darius Garland from the Cavs?
I believe Mr. Garland
You were never his dad, until after his fame. You didn’t want to bothered with him, while he was poor. If he wasn’t Pac the star, you probably wouldn’t be checking for him.
More projection.
I kind of believe this.
Yall just blew me, I though that finally let C Murder out! 😢
He made a bad decision choosing the panthers over basketball if he could have continued his basketball career and became financially successful he could have done more with more resources financially to help the community in any way he saw fit
You do know Tupac literally would’ve never been born had that happened right
Bad decision in YOUR opinion but if it wasn't for people like him that sacrificed their future for OUR future we wouldn't have the present we have be grateful there was people like him
THEN WE WOULDN’T HAVE PAC. Y’all pushing it now. 😂😂😂
Everyone doesn't worship money.
Helping the community first starts with the home and being there for your children right? Seems he contradicted what the Panthers stood for.
Billy " could have been the NBA but there would neve be a Tupac " Garland
I wonder if he's related to Darius Garland
😂
He's such a narcissist.
Tupac was a rapper. TUPAC WAS A RAPPER! JUST A RAPPER! He was a RAPPER with A GREAT MESSAGE ( AT TIMES) but he was still JUST A RAPPER! I'm in his age group and I remember those times. He talked about things that should be done, could be done and needed to be done. Remember, he didn't die putting his life on the line for BLACK PEOPLE! HE DIED GETTING INVOLVED IN SOME N*GGA SHIT! Sad to say but true. HE IS NO MARTUR! HE DIDN'T DIE FOR THE CAUSE! MALCOM, MARTIN,MEDGER,FRED HAMPTON all died for the cause along with many unsung heroes and heroins. He's just not that folks and I LOVE "DEAR MAMA" , "KEEP YA HEAD UP" and others but I haven't lost my ability to keep things in perspective and cling to REALITY! TALENTED ARTIST! But so many have tried to make a MARTUR out of him and that's not the case. SORRY!
Nigga you said a bunch of nonsense he was down for the cause maybe more than all of the ones you mentioned he was just 25 and was doing young nigga bullshit but was still learning you are dumb as hell saying that smh 🤦🏽♂️ kill Martin and Malcolm at 25 and what would they be nothing nobody they got to live longer than PAC had PAC lived he would have the powers that be even more scared and feared than Malcolm or Martin would have cause PAC was fearless and was down for the cause do you think they would have shot two people messing with a black man and didn’t care about the consequences lol 😂 Nigga Tupac was the one it’s just he was still young doing young dumb shit and it unfortunately caught up with him
No ones perfect shit happens. Hes still the GOAT
@@PR-WAYhe did more than you
yeah, these commenters seem like young naive not very bright stans. it is what it is …
Not taking anything away from the BROTHA. He was a very talented artist. His parents were REVOLUTIONARIES and those influences found their way into his music. I personally like PRE-DEATH ROW Tupac. I remember when he was with DIGITAL UNDERGROUND. He was dancing first and then he had a verse on SAME SONG! You could immediately tell he was going to be a star. Do I think he's the G.O.A.T? NO! I have forgotten more RAPPERS/M.C.'S than most people here have probably heard. So my opinion is based in facts. He has sold more records than any other rapper but that's POPULARITY! HE ATTENDED A PRIVATE SCHOOL FOR THE ARTS and that means he was PROFESSIONALLY TRAINED! Most guys in the business didn't have that luxury. So his skill was in his writing
For All 2pac and Pac Father Haters, Hail Mary and run quick See who mad at ya All. Big Respect to this ma' who fought for human rights. Blood never lie.
He comes off real bitter towards afeni in this interview. He has a lot to say for someone that barely new tupac
Afeni told Pac, he was dead. He's supposed to be happy about that.
AFENI WAS A CRACK HEAD AND KICKED TUPAC OUT WHEN HE WAS 17 soooooooooooooooooooo WE NOT GONNA SPEAK ON THAT ????!!! But y’all love bashing Tupacs father it seems to me that you wanna be his father or something 😂😂😂
@@Ricosumpter
Why would we speak about Tupac's relationship with his mother? They weren't estranged when he passed away and she had gotten off of drugs. I don't understand why fans bring that up as if that has anything to do with Mr. Garland. Mr. Garland did not contribute to Tupac's upbringing at all, nor was he heavily involved in his life after Tupac got out of prison. Does that make him a bad person? No! But let's not make the man more than what he was.
@@Roqui2009Mind you. Billy admitted to being addicted to drugs too 😂.
@@Roqui2009 you obviously wanna be wit mr garland or something the way you on this man’s nuts !!! 😂🤦🏾♂️🤡 stop bashing this man like you fuccin know him end of discussion shorty!
WOW... 50 points... The more I listen to Mr. Garland the MORE I see Pac got his greatness from his FATHER...
My professor said the same thing he said he got his righteousness from his father!
@@dominicbrogsdale3348 Crystal CLEAR to ME... No way he got his righteousness from his lying azz mother
@@alanduff1054 you absolutely right. The man who didn't show up In his life till he was 22/23.....
@@Red-gc6dw You believe that because a LYING azz black women say so huh... ok
@@alanduff1054 YEAH!!! My professor also said that he got his craziness in his mental illness from his mother she did him dirty..
- asking for 30k then she would gamble the money all and and ask for more
- Tupac ask for a house , she ask for a bigger house , a car and she say in ain't new enough
- and there's no telling what she was doing when she was smoking crack
- and just LIED OUTRIGHT LIED TO HIM ABOUT HIS FATHER JUST OUTRIGHT DIRTY!
Doesn't surprise me though! She was on some ghetto rachet 🐂 💩 how you ask for 30k ,blow it like it's nothing , after your child worked hard for it and ask for more ...
TRASH!!! 🗑️
I’m confused. If you were there in the hospital with her why were you dead on the birth certificate
Cause he’s lying.
He be saying a lot of suspect shit now that they both gone
He isn't lying I hell according to Google he died in 1998 😂
He’s a liar and needs to grow up.
Imagine if this guy was just an imposter
does he have any rap songs?
Please leave Afeni alone!🤦♀️ the only parent who kept her child and took responsibility of him. You admitted you knew he was your son since born! This title is so disrespectful. Let her spirit rest in peace. She was a single Black mother and he has the audacity to accuse her of alterior motives. She raised the child that you abandoned and didnt care to earn money to provide for your son. These men have audacity!
Was a liar and a basehead
@@beatman153Do you mean Billy? Yes, I agree. He admitted to using drugs. Even blew off Pac during a phone call after one of his binges.
Not enough already afeni was a crackhead at end of day.
A lot of weak men and misogynists holding up a absent father as the hero lol and putting down the mother who fed and raised her son with no child support.
@@rickjamezz838 Crack didnt come around til the 80s
They also killed my uncle Lil Bobby Hutton.
Rip
Dang thats ironic that Mr. Garland was so good at basketball & Pac admittedly was bad at it😄
Micheal Jordan son Marcus was terrible in fact they all were
Yeah. I can definitely see where Pac got a lot of his wisdom from unknowingly.
