no he never claimed that they hired the people to shoot him in the first place.
he said that he knew specific people were out to get him and he did nothing about it not even gave him a warning that hey u might want to get out of new york and lay low for a while becuase some dudes are out to hurt u.
biggie told him not to hang around the same ppl that set him up on more than one occasion
pac didnt listen. when shyt went down, for some reason chatty patty pac told the world that biggie warned him.
Now biggie, who was trying to stay mutual, respectful, and drama free, now had issues with henchmen and them tfor telling pac to seperate from them
and he also has issues with pac, who went went who was trying to be a tough guy and do publicity stunts to sell records
if biggie hadnt warned pac out of the goodness of his heart, he wouldnt of been involved in anything
thats why you can't try and help everybody. big shoulda just kept his mouth shut
