It's a combination of how advanced technology has gotten, yet commercialized we've become to use a dead person for a concert.

Exclusive: Black Hippy, Tech N9ne, RiFF RaFF, Common, Talib Kweli, Earl Sweatshirt, Pusha T and more help start 2013's Rock the Bells.
Yesterday (September 7), Rock the Bells kicked off its first day in San Bernardino, California with performances from Black Hippy, Common and Kid Cudi. The festival also featured a hologram-like virtual performance of Eazy-E during Bone thugs-n-harmony's set. When the virtual performance was announced, Rock the Bells organizer, Guerilla Union's Chang Weisberg, spoke about the plans.
"I've talked to Bone Thugs-N-Harmony and Tomica Wright," Weisberg said in an exclusive interview with HipHopDX in June. "I shared with them the vision and the knowledge and it was after those discussions that they entrusted me with the responsibility."
The performance also marked one of Layzie Bone's final showings with the group following his decision to step away from Bone thugs-n-harmony. Layzie has announced that he will no longer be a member of the group after fulfilling obligations. Recently, Krayzie Bone spoke about Layzie's decision to step down from the crew.
“It is what it is,” Krayzie said in an exclusive interview with HipHopDX. “He has his reasons. We’re still going to support him and everything he does. He’s actually going to be performing with us at Rock The Bells. I guess he needs to step away because there are some things he wants to do as a man, and as men, we can’t do nothing but respect that. We’re going to continue as a team and keep moving forward with this grind

meh, didn't look as good or epic as the Pac one. looks like any old dude with a Compton hat & baggy clothes on. couldn't really se the locs, they could have at least put him in something like this

i've seen a few pics of him in shirts like that and it would have added something to it instead of being too plain. as far as the performance goes, i haven't seen that much Eazy concert footage but i don't think he ever held his mic up like that, the hand gestures etc were pretty spot on tho, he never did too much on stage.
