Haven't read it yet, but :lupe:





Edit: About halfway through the article now and... :francis:

Dre was probably one of the shadiest people to ever bless the mic. If it wasn't a disgruntled promoter, it was somebody else he either robbed or pulled some other shady stunt on.



I was living in vallejo when this happened and still remember getting the call about it from my roommate at around 6:30 in the morning on november 1st as I was on my way to work. There were always lots of rumors about mac dre getting killed or od'ing, but she said that this time it was real. A couple hours later I knew she wasn't lying when I heard chuy announce it on kmel :mjcry:

Damn

Cliffs but y’all should read it:

A promoter booked Dre for two Halloween shows in KC.

Promoter contracts him for $12k, and gives him 6 bands up front as well as flight, hotel etc with the promise that he’ll perform, do a record store signing, and club walkthrough.

Dre calls one of his friends from KC (big time dope dealer) to set up some car service. His friend contacts another man to be his driver for the weekend.

Dre is basically late or a no show for everything. No showed the club, came mad late to the record signing and stayed for 30 minutes, late to both shows and didn’t even perform at the second show.

Promoter is pissed and contacts Dre’s friend and tells him what went down. Not in the story because it’s some street code talk going on, but promoter basically pays Dre’s friend to get his location on the night of his death so that the promoter can pay two hit men to take him out.

Friend either calls him or is following him (once again street talk don’t know the real story but it sounds like he was behind Dre’s white van.)

Either way friend calls the promoter and gives him the drop and next thing you know Dre is shot up 30 times.

Killers drop the stolen car off and burn their clothes. Witnesses give this info to the police but they don’t act on it for like a whole day.

Promoter starts rumors of Fat Tone killing Dre and half a year later Mac Minister kills Tone in Vegas. Tone is innocent.

In the end Dre is dead, Tone is dead for no reason, Mac minister has life, one of the shooters was killed later, Dre’s friend got a 30 piece in the feds for kingpin charges, and promoter is still free.

Crazy

So my IRL homie Brad (a truck driving, Marlboro smoking, Whiteboy Whiteboy :mjgrin:) dated Dre's Mom Wanda for a long time. She was a super nice Woman and we all hung out several times including rolling on E one New Years (@ 93/94??). Nothing crazy, just good vibes...

Mac Wanda is cool asf.
