I saw it on BET news and immediately ran to my homies crib in my complex knocking on his door(don't ask me why :russ: ), but he wasn't home.

By the time I got there I had to pee bad and hold it until I got back home. I think I was 17.

I remember when I found out Biggie died I was at Tire Kingdom getting something fixed on my car on a Sunday morning and heard Casey Kasem on the radio talking about it.

I found out Chinx died when I was fishing and then checked the Coli and saw a thread.

I still ain't recover from Bankroll getting killed when I read it on the forums.

I always ask my mom about him, like tell me what it was like to see him on live tv on award shows and red carpets. She's always like he's dead it's time to move on she just don't get it.


she probably didn't have any answers for you, seeing that he barely has any awards show appearances.:pachaha:



Played in a little league football game against Dan Marinos son.

Was already becoming a man and was a bit of a cowboy, so it was "oh well" since he was dealing with hood nonsense. Now that I'm much older it seems like a real waste. Dude had more to give but the music world changed. Who knows if any of these guys would still be relevant and successful

In junior college at the time. I only had one class on Friday, so I did that, then got a workout in. Went home took a quick nap, then put in a four hour shift at the jobbie job. When I got home my pops was watching this story on Pac on BET. I stood there and watched it until it went to commercial. I looked at my pops and said, "So he died, huh?" Pops said yeah. I just went upstairs and thought about it for a little while.

I was 15, I would come every day, everyday and religiously put on hot97. Remember turning the radio on and Angie Martinez sounding super sad and talking about it, after that rest of the day all the way to shabba ranks (Jamaican dj that would come on around 11 or so) to Lisa Evers Street show, everything was a Tupac dedication, the music the people that called up for interviews etc

I had the actual recordings of that day until my external drive got stolen earlier this year.

@Newark88 might have it
