Suge & Puffy were cool until Suge started frickin Misa Hylton who is the mother of Justin Combs, Puffy's first son.



Misa would fly out from NYC to Los Angeles to frick Suge & bring along Mary J Blige & Faith Evans who would frick other Death Row artists & associates. Singer Danny Boy was one of them. About 3 years ago, Suge released a photo proving this. In the photo, Suge is playing with a young Justin Combs as Misa watches.



A lot of people around Misa & Puffy during that time, don't even think Justin is for Puffy. Anthony "Wolf" Jones was a friend & bodyguard from Harlem of Puffy & many people think Justin was fathered by Wolf.

Suge Knight's best friend Jake "Big Jake" Robles in lower left.

September 23, 1995

Jermaine Dupri has his birthday party in Atlanta. Several R&B & Hip Hop executives & artists are in attendance including Suge Knight & Sean Combs. Prior to this party, Mary J Blige & Jocedi had approached Suge about getting them out of their contract with Uptown Records & get their masters. Puff had been the President of Uptown Records prior to starting Bad Boy Records. At this party Suge roughs up both Jermaine Dupri & Puffy to intimidate them both to agree to his terms. At some point that night at the party, the confrontation continues outside. Big Jake ends up being shot & killed right in front of Suge. Many say Wolf was the shooter. Obviously this ended Puffy & Suge's friend & turned them into enemies.

November 11, 2023

Wolf is in Atlanta. At the same time Demetrius Flenory aka "Big Meech" & BMF is in the same club. Wolf spots his ex girlfriend who is also pregnant for him with BMF in the VIP section. Wolf confronts her. Big Meech steps in & has Wolf thrown out the club. Wolf then goes outside to the parking lot & waits for Big Meech by Meech's Cadillac Escalade. Wolf & another man end up dead. Meech ends up with a gunshot wound to the arse. The incident gets Meech a double homicide charge that he beats but it puts on the Feds radar & ultimately gets him arrested & convicted bringing down the BMF Empire.

Everyone knows about Tupac & Biggie once being close friends. The fallout & reason behind the Quad Studio shooting in NYC has been told wrong repeatedly for decades. Tupac never said Biggie was responsible or even behind the shooting. Tupac repeatedly said it was the fact he felt Biggie knew what was going to happen at Quad Studio but didn't warn him ahead of time.

The real reason behind the Quad Studio robbery attempt & shooting: MADONNA

Jacques "Haitian Jack" Agnant was big time kingpin in NYC who got into the music industry to clean his dirty money. He meets Madonna in an Atlanta studio one evening. From there they begin a relationship & for a short period Haitian Jack is her manager.

quote:

By the early ’90s, Haitian Jack was known around New York not only for his rep in the streets, but as an epic figure on the nightlife scene. Party promoters respected him, DJs saluted him and everyone from athletes to entertainers knew of Jack. So it wasn’t too surprising when a chance meeting in an Atlanta studio connected Haitian Jack with one of the biggest pop stars in the world at the time in Madonna.

The two instantly hit it off. He was charismatic and his ties to the streets gave him the bad boy image that Madonna gravitated toward in the ’90s.

“[Jack] got [Madonna] chillin’, eating jerk chicken, n—a. I saw that flex,” says rapper and fellow Flatbush native Spliff Star in Hip Hop Uncovered. “It was the swag. It was the persona. She felt it. I couldn’t understand. I was like, ‘Does this b—- know who she hanging with?’ This a real street n—a.”






At the same time, Haitian Jack & Tupac meet & become close friends.

quote:

Shakur was in New York for much of ‘93 filming the cult classic Above The Rim. He played Birdie, a New York gangster — much like Haitian Jack — who wooed people through his flash and charisma while ruling through paralyzing fear. Shakur had always been privy to the horrors of life in the ghetto. His mother’s crack addiction nearly severed their relationship and his father was nowhere to be found. Drug dealers, pimps and prostitutes were unintended role models.

Still, hanging around Haitian Jack was a master class in how to operate within that ghetto political infrastructure. In his now-landmark Vibe interview from Rikers Island a few years later, Shakur admitted that Haitian Jack introduced him to a life he had only previously flirted with.

“I used to dress in baggies and sneakers. They took me shopping; that’s when I bought my Rolex and all my jewels,” Shakur said. “They made me mature. They introduced me to all these gangsters in Brooklyn.”




The fallout began when both Tupac & Haitian Jack were charged with the sexual assault of Ayanna Jackson. The night prior, Jackson gave Tupac a blowjob on the dance floor of the night club Nell's in Manhattan in front of everyone.

quote:

Shakur, Haitian Jack and others were charged with sexually assaulting 19-year-old Ayanna Jackson in Shakur’s 38th-floor room at the Parker Meridien Hotel. Shakur and Jackson had first met at the Manhattan, New York, nightclub Nell’s and engaged in consensual sex.


A few nights later is where everything went sour.

quote:

A few nights later, Haitian Jack informed ‘Pac that Jackson was coming back over. Shakur said Jack was making everyone drinks in what appeared to be an evening that was nothing out of the ordinary. Biggie Smalls was reportedly there, waiting to accompany Shakur to a New Jersey show. But he left shortly after Jackson’s arrival. According to Jackson, she and Shakur were in his bedroom alone when other men entered and they proceeded to rape her. Shakur said that when the other men walked into the room, he left, feeling weirded out by the group setting. He said he talked with his publicist in another room, felt groggy and went to sleep. He awoke to Jackson yelling at him for allowing them to assault her.


Tupac felt it was a set up by Haitian Jack from comments Tupac in the New York Times where Tupac labeled Haitian Jack "a hanger on". Haitian Jack also found out that Madonna was also frickin Tupac. It pissed off a man who the money, power & respect Haitian Jack had.



quote:


“’Pac was all good when I was doing things for him. Until we caught that punk arse case that easily could’ve been beaten by both of us,” Haitian Jack said. “He let his attorneys turn him against me and that’s the part I’ll never forgive him for because I’m going ride or die with you, home. I expect you to do the same. See, that’s what I call a fair-weather friend.”


quote:

“He really liked her and she realized he wasn’t who he said he was. ’Pac wasn’t no gangsta. And they told her I was that dude,” Haitian Jack said. “Some [people] are like, ‘Jack’s with Madonna. Madonna doesn’t seem to be into you anymore.’ He was like, ‘F— that n—a and f— that b—-.’ Don’t bring no man into this. Cause I’m a man, my n—a. Don’t play those games with me, playboy. Cause I’ll take you there.”

You watched 1 video of an adolescent and missed the rest of his life work and the fact he was raised by Black Panthers

You probably sounded gay in high school too, probably still do

Both Biggie & Mike Tyson tried to warn Tupac about the dangers of hanging with Haitian Jack. By then it was too late. Tupac also caught the gun charges for Haitian Jack & his crew the night of the sexual assault accusations. It pissed off Tupac & made him feel like it the whole incident was a set up. It didn't help afterwards that Haitian Jack was able to get his case separated from Tupac's. Haitian Jack later made a plea deal & received no jail time.

quote:

It’s a stain that never left Shakur’s career, one he admitted left him with regret.

“Even though I’m innocent of the charge they gave me, I’m not innocent in terms of the way I was acting,” Shakur said. “I don’t know if she’s with these n—as, or if she’s mad at me for not protecting her. But I know I feel ashamed because I wanted to be accepted and because I didn’t want no harm done to me. I didn’t say anything.”

Shakur, who also was charged with weapons possession that night, spent much of 1994 proclaiming his innocence. The thought of being remembered as a rapist haunted him. Naturally, ‘Pac and Jack’s relationship deteriorated. Through the press, he called Haitian Jack a “hanger-on” and on Nov. 29, he delivered one of his most emotionally charged interviews when he pleaded his innocence once more and expressed resentment his rape case was being tried separately though he wasn’t the only one charged that night. From prison, boxer Mike Tyson was telling Shakur he was “out of his league” hanging with Haitian Jack. Biggie Smalls also told him to be careful about some of the street guys, Haitian Jack included, that Shakur was courting and later taunting.

James Rosemond aka Jimmy Henchman



November 30, 1994

This is 3 days before Tupac's sexual assault trial would end. Tupac goes to Quad Studios to go do some recording. In one studio Biggie & Lil Ceaser is there recording. Puffy is also in the building on other business. Tupac heads into the building & before getting into the elevator, he gets ambushed & shot 5 times. It was supposed to be robbery but Tupac fought back & during the struggle, he gets shot.

quote:

"He said he grabbed a guy's gun, and they were struggling back and forth," Spice 1 recalls. 

According to Spice 1, Tupac described the chilling moment: "They both paused, went to shoot, and then he started pulling...he looked at him in the face, and then he started struggling again, dude shot again, and then shot one more time, that's when he shot him in the groin area. He said, you know, that's when I fell to the ground."




Jimmy Henchman who "worked" for Haitian Jack had set up the robbery. For years Henchmen denied being involved until 2012 & 2018 when he was convicted of narcotics conspiracy, continuing a criminal enterprise, money laundering, firearms offenses, and obstruction of justice in 2012 & 2018 for murder. He's currently doing life in prison.

quote:

James Rosemond, also known as “Jimmy Henchman,” has reportedly admitted his involvement in a 1994 assault on Tupac Shakur that left the rapper shot, robbed and nearly dead at New York’s Quad Recording Studios. According to reporting in the Village Voice by Chuck Philips, Rosemond made the admission during proffer sessions last fall where his confession would not be used against him during an unaffiliated drug trafficking case involving millions of dollars of cocaine — an operation Rosemond was convicted of running in June.


Henchmen had arranged the robbery to get revenge for his buddy Haitian Jack & because Tupac owed him money. Tupac was there to do a verse to get paid so he could pay back Jimmy Henchmen.

Henchmen hired Dexter Issac to rob & shoot Tupac at Quad Studios.



quote:

Dexter Isaac, who is serving a life sentence in an unrelated murder-for-hire plot. Isaac says, that he was paid $2,500 by Rosemond to shoot and rob Shakur.


quote:

Isaac stole jewelry off Shakur and handed over a diamond ring to Rosemond after the late-night ambush, the post published Wednesday reads.

"I still have the chain that we took that night," he wrote, according to the post.




3 days later Tupac is convicted. Not for sexual assault (sodemy) & weapons charges but for first degree sexual abuse for groping Ayanna Jackson (grabbing her arse).

quote:

The jury, which reached its decision on the third day of deliberations, found the same verdict for a co-defendant, Charles Fuller, 24.

“We’re ecstatic,” said Shakur’s lawyer, Michael Warren. He said he was pleased that the jury “kept an open mind.”

Each man was convicted of three counts of first-degree sex abuse, which means they groped and touched the victim without her consent.




That February Tupac is sentenced & goes off to prison. He had been shot, robbed, convicted, humiliated & betrayed. Even though he never said Biggie was responsible or pulled the trigger, he felt Biggie knew what was about to go down at Quad Studios yet didn't warn him. This is where his anger would come from. That anger is what caused him to sign with Suge & Death Row. Now both Suge & Tupac had something in common. The same enemies. Everyone knows this lead to the making of Hit Em Up but very few know the theme of Against All Odds which I just explained.

Now Puffy is scared. Suge bails Tupac out on a $1 million dollar bond. Pussy, I mean Puffy needs help when traveling across the country to do shows on the west coast. Puffy had already met Duane "Keefe D" Davis because Puffy rented Keefe D's lowrider for a video for Usher. It wasn't until Puffy felt he needed backup at his shows that he had Eric "Von Zip" Martin reach out Keefe D who was the leader of the South Side Crips in Los Angeles. Von Zip & Keefe D had a relationship already because Von Zip was getting kilos of cocaine from Keefe D, trafficking the drugs from LA to NYC.



quote:

Duane "Keefe D" Davis allegedly cooperated with the LAPD in an undercover operation to implicate Diddy in 2Pac's murder. The Sun reported on Saturday (July 20) that prosecutors revealed Davis participated in the undercover work back in 2009 after he was caught "trafficking a large amount of drugs" by the LAPD task force. Keefe D flew to New York City alongside the LA law enforcement with the mission to "corroborate the conspiracy" that Sean Combs had something to do with the Las Vegas shooting. Harlem gangster Eric "Von Zip" Martin was also targeted in the LAPD's bicoastal undercover operation.

The 179-page legal document states Keefe D allegedly met Martin and his nephew while he was in NYC, where he attempted to recruit the gangster to "traffic narcotics." "After returning, [Keefe D] tried to enlist Mr. Martin in an effort to traffic narcotics," legal documents state. "Mr. Martin indicated he was out of the business but directed him to conduct his drug activities with the nephew."

As for the Bad Boy Records founder, Diddy's name appears 77 times in the legal docs. One particular moment included the transcript of Davis accusing Combs of putting out a hit on Suge Knight and Pac. Legal documents show that the cops asked if Combs "play[ed] a role in this thing?" to which Keefe responded, "Yeah, I think he did." Another transcript shown in court included Davis recalling Puffy contacting him about Pac's death, detailing that Combs "reache[d] out wondering if the South Side Crips were responsible for Shakur's death by asking, 'Is that us?' [Keefe D], beaming with pride, answer[ed], 'Yes.'"


Puffy ultimately puts a price on both Tupac & Suge's head. Puffy also puts out a price for anyone who could snatch a Death Row off of someone affiliated with Death Row. An incident occurs at a mall in Los Angeles where Travon Lane, a Death Row affiliate gets his chain snatched. Who does the chain snatching? None other than Orlando "Baby Lane" Anderson.

September 7, 1996

After going back stage to see Mike Tyson after Tyson knocked out Bruce Seldon, Suge, Tupac & several Mob Pirus including Travon Lane leave back stage & head out through the lobby of the MGM Grand. Travon Lane sees Orlando Anderson in the lobby & tells Tupac that is guy who took his chain. Tupac runs straight at Orlando & hits him. Everyone else in the group hits & stomps Orlando. It's the infamous video from that night. That incident set off a chain of events that night. Events that 30 years later got Keefe D convicted in the murder of Tupac.

Matters a lot to Reggie Wright Jr, he goes free for a crime he orchestrated


This is about Tupac, not Biggie. Reggie Wright Jr was definitely involved & has knowledge of exactly what happened which is why he signed a proffer agreement pertaining to the Biggie case. The problem with ever solving the Biggie case is that LAPD was involved & those files pertaining to the case are locked up in the Rampart Scandal files which are now sealed.

quote:

Police Corruption Is Revealed in Los Angeles's Rampart Division

The Rampart Division of the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) became embroiled in one of the most infamous police corruption scandals in U.S. history during the late 1990s. The incident that sparked the investigation occurred on March 18, 1997, when off-duty LAPD officer Kevin Gaines was shot and killed by fellow officer Frank Lyga in a road rage confrontation, which ignited public outrage and accusations of racial tension within the department. Following the incident, it was revealed that Gaines had connections to Death Row Records and its controversial owner, Suge Knight, raising questions about the relationships between police officers and gang affiliations.

In response to growing concerns, the LAPD established the Rampart Corruption Task Force, which uncovered extensive misconduct by the CRASH (Community Resources Against Street Hoodlums) unit. The investigation revealed widespread corruption, including illegal arrests, planting of evidence, and excessive use of force, implicating over seventy officers. Notably, former officer Rafael Perez became a whistleblower, detailing systemic abuses and perjury that plagued the unit. The scandal led to numerous lawsuits against the LAPD and significant reforms, including federal oversight of the department.

This incident not only highlighted issues of corruption and accountability within law enforcement but also strained community relations, particularly between African American residents and the police. The Rampart scandal remains a significant chapter in discussions about police reform and community trust in law enforcement in Los Angeles and beyond.

Kevin Gaines & Rafael Perez were Mob Piru Bloods.

Rampart Scandal Timeline

Missing from that timeline is the Biggie murder. Both Gaines & Perez were suspects in the case along with David Mack.

quote:

Detectives are investigating whether former officer David Mack conspired with Death Row Records founder Marion "Suge" Knight to kill Notorious B.I.G., it was reported Thursday.

Some investigators believe the killing of Notorious B.I.G., whose real name was Christopher Wallace, involved a feud between Los Angeles-based Death Row and New York rivals, the paper said.

The investigation is probing the possibility that Mack arranged for a friend to carry out the shooting outside the Petersen Automotive Museum on March 9, 1997, the Los Angeles Times said.





quote:

Mack is a friend and former partner of Rafael Perez, a jailed ex-officer at the center of a corruption probe that has focused on the Police Department's Rampart station.

Mack is serving 14 years for a Nov. 6, 1997, bank robbery that netted a still-missing $722,000. Two days after the robbery, Mack and Perez spent thousands of dollars while partying in Las Vegas, the newspaper said.

Detectives who searched Mack's house in connection with the bank robbery reportedly found what a police source called a "shrine" to Tupac Shakur, the Death Row star gunned down while driving with Knight in Las Vegas on Sept. 7, 1996.




Investigators are trying to determine if Mack hired longtime friend Amir Muhammad to kill Wallace, according to the Times report based on confidential police documents and sources that include a former detective assigned to the case.

"It sounds absolutely ridiculous to me," said attorney Donald M. Re, who represents Mack.

Knight's attorney, Robin Yanes, said Thursday that his client doesn't know Mack.

"He's not a friend, not a business associate, nothing," the lawyer said.

"A year ago it came up and now they're recycling it to cover their butts. They have nowhere to go. They are at a standstill," Yanes said. "They went up to the prison and tried to get people to snitch out Suge and they got nothing."

quote:

Muhammad, known as Harry Billups when he and Mack were classmates at the University of Oregon, dropped out of sight after visiting Mack in prison on Dec. 26, 1997.

Several months after the rapper's death, but prior to Mack's arrest, a jailhouse informant told detectives that the rapper's killer went by an Arabic-sounding name, police records show. However, the inforant was unsure about the name and suggested several others.

Investigators also said a driver's license photo of Muhammad resembled a composite sketch of Wallace's killer, the newspaper said.

In addition, a witness in the rapper's motorcade placed Mack at the scene, and another man in the same vehicle as Wallace picked Mack out of a photo lineup, according to police documents.

Police, who have been unable to locate Muhammad, have spent nearly two years trying to build a case against Mack, the Times said.




quote:

Detectives previously identified Knight as a suspect in the Notorious B.I.G. killing, alleging he may have ordered it while in jail on a parole violation. He currently is serving a nine-year sentence for a 1992 attack on two rappers in a recording studio.

Meanwhile, Perez, a former anti-gang officer at Rampart station, is the key figure in an unfolding scandal involving falsified reports, evidence planting and a shooting that paralyzed a man.

Information from Perez, who is cooperating in exchange for a lighter sentence on his conviction for stealing cocaine from a police evidence room, has resulted in the overturning of 11 convictions and suspension of more than a dozen officers. He has not implicated Mack.

The Times also said a former Compton policeman who provided security for Death Row told investigators that Mack and fellow LAPD Officer Kevin Gaines socialized in the label's circle. (Reggie Wright Jr. )

Gaines, who was dating Knight's estranged wife Sharitha, was shot to death March 18, 1997, when he pulled a gun on an undercover LAPD officer during a traffic dispute. The plainclothes officer was cleared.

The Las Vegas DA & ADA confirmed the reports that they had interviewed Suge Knight for 2 hours as a possible witness for the trial. They were gonna ask Suge about arranging the Biggie hit on stand which is why Suge refused to take the stand & why the prosecution didn't call him as a witness yet during that 2 hour interview, Suge did admit to Keefe D being in the car & being responsible for the killing of Tupac. Fast forward to the 20:40 mark.
