Tupac's older brother Mopreme Shakur recently revealed on The Art of Dialogue podcast that Tupac had considered signing with Diddy's Bad Boy Recordings before he went to prison in 1995. According to Mopreme, Tupac had wanted to be "with his people" and support the black business. Both Tupac and The Notorious B.I.G., a Bad Boy artist, were cool at the time.
However, things changed as Tupac started to "see things". With Biggie being on Puffy's label, Puffy was calling the shots which led to problems. We all know the tragic outcome of this beef, and the mystery of who murdered Tupac still remains unsolved. Although Keefe D has been recently arrested for the crime, he has mentioned in several interviews and a book he wrote over the years that Bad Boy label owner Diddy was responsible for placing a hit on Tupac and Suge Knight.
Diddy has always denied any involvement in the murder of Tupac, while many have pointed the finger at Knight, who is currently in jail for murder. Tupac was shot several times in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas after a boxing match featuring Mike Tyson on Sept. 7, 1996 and unfortunately succumbed to his injuries six days later at the age of 25.
The story of Tupac Shakur's murder continues to be a source of controversy to this day, but one thing is certain - it might not have happened if Tupac had signed with Diddy's Bad Boy Recordings. It's an unfortunate reminder of the power of music and the impact it can have.
