Wrong. Very wrong actually. He got it from the east coast gangstas he was runnin with. Bandanas been around forever in the streets (both on the eastcoast and the west). He didnt start the trend. The bandanas became a trend (musically) really in the late 80's or early early 90's. By 1992 everybody had it (Redman, Onyx, Wu Tang, Boss, Kane etc). Now like dude above said, maybe the way he was wearing it got cats influenced (to the front), but how many people besides fans and Ja Rule wore it like that? Not many, if any at all.
Lol @ posting DMX & Jay-Z wearing bandanas as examples. Totally wrong. The bandana to the side was around before but became a trend around 1997. Why would that be influenced by 2pac?
Ya gotta cut the post-death shyt out.
