yeah so nas didnt diss biggie, biggie didnt threaten his daughter on victory
wu didnt put an entire skit calling biggie a biter on their top regarded album
alluding to how he copied nas.... full circle
“A lot of the people were coming on the block back in the days when Biggie had ‘Party and Bullsh–,’ his first record, and they would play it. I wasn’t into it,” said P.
“I was focused on Mobb Deep. I had tunnel vision: I really didn’t give a f— what anybody was doin’ in rap music, except for Mobb Deep and
Nas and our little circle.
Everything else was irrelevant to me.” - Prodigy
who also didnt fukk with Jayz who was Biggie's guy
Biggie called people to team up with to take Pac down, so how is it out of the realm of possibility that he called the only neutral group available. All of this is documented for nearly 30 years regardless whether Joe lied or not, its not out of the realm of possibility.
It sounds more crazy that he contacted Nas to collab against Pac, after saying he was going to kidnap and put a gun to his 3 year old daughter Desinty, and that actually happened. So I dont see how asking Fat Joe and Terror Squad to have his back is some wild theory. It would have been a smart move just to see where their head was at regardless if any songs actually got done.
Think about it even Mase's favorite rapper is 2pac. So if he found out Terror Squad didnt fukk with him too, he would only really have junior mafia to really ride for him. nikkas talk about what people apologized with years later towards Biggie, almost a decade after he died. That holds nothing to the reality of what happened in 1995-1996 in hiphop that is factual. His only close people would have been kind of Jay who was doing his own thing building an empire, Cam'ron who ended up near Jay and building his own shyt. And Snoop who was crippled due to being signed to Death Row still.
That's not even mentioning 2pac trying to start death row east and grab up Boot Camp Click, Greg Nice, the other parts of Wutang, Run-Dmc Jam Master Jay, Outkast etc .... you tell me who Biggie was supposed to roll with as the king of the mountain. Black Rob and Gdep?
I agree Joe may have been lying but the facts point more towards biggie at least reaching out
