"I just remember what you told me.Don't go to war unless you got your money right...well, I got my money right, nikka....now I want war" -Pac
I think he was talking to Henchmen on that.
Pac knew them nikkaz had more power/money than he did.
But at the same time, He knew Henchmen was eating off Puffy/Biggie/Bad Boy.
It seems like A lot of shyt Pac was saying back then has proven to be true.
He said them NY Black Mafia nikkaz/ Drug dealers had Puffy/Bad Boy under extortion.
"Puffy getting robbed like a bytch, to hide that fact, he did some shyt he shouldn't of did"
nikkaz is going off public images.Pac was speaking on the dark inner workings of the hip hop world.
You had a bunch of strong arm, dirty, street nikkaz/ killers coming from the drug game and hooking up with music execs in an attempt to invest/legitimize their money.
How do you think nikkaz like that felt about these fake rappers going around portraying the life they really lived?
They had to be looking at most of these rappers like
That's why they decided to tax them nikkaz.Beat they ass and run em for their jewelry.
I heard BIG got a lot of his rapping material from the stories that Jimmy Henchmen used to tell him about his past capers.
I think when Pac dissed them nikkaz in the NY Daily News, he thought he was standing up for hip hop.I think on one hand, he was happy about seeing nikkaz getting money, but when he found out how dirty them nikkaz was....running around snitching and working with the FEDS etc etc.......I don't think Pac could hold back on that shyt....He had a big mouth.
I think he hooked up with Death Row just to even the playing field with Henchmen and his nikkaz.He wanted to make major moves with Death Row so he could get his money right.He knew they nikkaz he was dealing with had helicopter money(According to Napoleon...he said the nikkaz that got at Pac owned helicopters and shyt).
I think BIG & Puff were just a means to an end to Pac.
It's like Going at a pimp.If you really want to fukk with a pimps money, take away his 2 main bytches.That would fukk with his money supply.
I think that's why Pac was going at Big & Puff so hard.He was doing that to get back at Henchmen and his people.They were just bytch nikkaz to him, so he turned them into collateral damage.....at that time....in his personal war on the Henchmen "Cabal"/ Bad Boy
