What is going on?!

When Tupac Shakur was gunned down only five months before Biggie, everybody thought Wallace and Combs were behind the murder. Now, when the other rap star is dead, people have started to come up with other solutions. People started to say that Biggie paid the Crips $1 million to get rid of his rival but has not paid the debt off to the Crips, so he paid his life for it.

It is so easy to make up stories like this and people said so probably because Suge Knight was a Bloods Gang member, so Tupac was closer to the Bloods and Biggie decided to use the opposite power to get rid of Pac, so he got in touch with the Crips.
To me this sounds like a story somebody randomly made up and spread around without any evidence supporting this theory. I think we should take a closer look to those two murder cases.
Also some fans think Biggie killed Tupac because he says it in some of his songs like for example 'Somebody's got to die' or 'Long kiss goodnight' from Biggie's second and last album, 'Life after death'.

I personally think we cannot judge someone by the lyrics of the song and especially mainstream artists such as Notorious B.I.G. or 2Pac because in this case, music is only business and way to make money. Anyway... compare the old 91-95 2Pac to the 1996 Death Row Tupac who changed from the modest, inspiring, good lyrical rapper to the man in the fast car who talks about partying, money, material things and women. These topics were used on 'All eyez on me' and look what happened... it sold 10 million copies, giving Tupac and Death Row a diamond status and Pac was sorted for the rest of his life!
This is why I believe people should not blame Biggie for murdering Tupac and base their evidence on the music. Anyway, let's have a look what B.I.G.'s childhood friend, Ebrahim has got to tell us about Christopher Wallace:


There we go!
