He’s saying the Hughes Bros originally wanted 2Pac to be the lead but he only wanted to lead in John Singleton films. So they gave him the role of Sharif.
Marlon Wayans says 2Pac was in chaos and recalls the look on 2Pac's face when he and Omar Epps saw him with Suge Knight in Las Vegas

I never said it was. I said Pac didn't want the lead role because people tried to make the argument that he was being a diva and wanted to be in the spotlight in the movie. When that wasn't the case at all because he flat told the Hughes Brothers he didn't want a lead role in the movie.

He was the aggressor AFTER they pulled the fukk shyt. Son had differences in artistic direction for the movie. Left the film and didn't speak on it. Or bash them. They had an agreement they wouldn't bash eachother to the media. Them nikkas turned around and did it anyway. Which is why he jumped them.

He DID. THEY are the ones who bashed him to the media. Which is why he jumped them.

Everyone needs a friend like Marlon, dude still checks anyone that tries to shade Pac. I'm sure Pac did miss the way things were and the freedom he used to have. These are the times Pac missed

you should read the last biography on his life. After reading it, I was seriously shocked he made it to 25. The amount of altercations he was in on tour, in the studio, video sets, etc.. A lot of people around him were like, "It's not that serious" until he got with Death Row. They matched the energy.

these guys who keep doing interviews about something happened almost 30 years ago have very good memories lol
I’m just talking about the “hold you down” part, I think they would have been a better choice than Suge and his bs. Protection don’t come free, no matter who you go to, so I’m not surprised they was taxin heavy. Celebrities pay it man, trust me, feeling safe is a necessary expense
Paying for protection and just being milked dry are two different things tho….sounds like Ali might have been getting the latter

Shooting at two cops who didn't disclose who they were. All that turmoil under the age of 25.I would go as far as the rape case. Hell, it just seemed like a downward spiral of poking the bear.
After a while, you end up becoming the villain and made into a martyr. I just wish dude would have done things differently. I remember seeing this documentary of the prison interview with Pac My man had the beard and full on fade like nobodies business. But the conversation was so different. My wife and I were like
- Janet Jackson giving ole boy a HIV test
- The Hughes Brothers playing him
- The Quad Studios shyt
- The prison rumors
- Label woes
- The media
at the transformation.
Dude was one big what if. What if he would have married Jada, what if he actually got that role in Menace, what if he rescheduled the Quad Studio time, and what if he would have continued to be with the Underground?
So many possibilities and somehow, there's no third chance at this game called life. You fukk up the second time, game over....
I've posted this in here about his time in NY the week before he died.
Dude was a mess
He could've changed but the thing that made it too late was stealing on Baby Lane. That was legit none of his business.

Marlon started getting emotional talking about it.
It's crazy how we all, at least some of us in here, had friends we were cool with who ended up in that goon life who show flickers of the innocence we all once shared in the brief minute or two you see them. After you leave, they go back into goon mode only to later hear they are gone.
You still remember them as who they were before that.
