2pac have beef with De La Soul?

[Think_ThuGLiFE]

That's clearly not the case, because Pac squashed his beef with Nas at the MTV Awards on September 4 and Nas is dissed repetitively on the album.

It’s been said by a truly reliable source that a number of disses were indeed taken out.... Not necessarily rappers but big time gang members. However u are correct about the Nas situation .

potholes in my lawn was one of their early hits. he's giving props to them.

i had a feeling it wasnt a stab but rather a mention to a song i was unaware of

Also on Old School Pac gives thanks to LL, whilst on "Lil Homies" he threatens him (LL say whaa ... meet my lil homies). Things change.

peace,

About the "big time gang members," I remember hearing about that. I'm assuming that their names were mentioned either in the background or in an unleaked Hit 'Em Up-style outro, I doubt that Pac made a verse about it then pulled it out. But regarding the Nas situation, I remember reading that Pac didn't intend to remove the disses, but when he saw Nas he told him that he was a target on the Makaveli album and that wouldn't change, but if Nas didn't respond then Pac wouldn't put out anymore songs about him.

"And next month all of this will be over, but this month, I'm taking every moving target out. Because this is a very personal thing for me and I feel like people should have gave me my respect. Ya'll know I was not like this before. I did not attack people. I was not on no East Coast West Coast. I was the major brigde between the east coast and the west coast. Niggaz can't even call me even when they want, so this is very serious. It's like if america sent an ambassador to Iran and he was murdered Iran got problems and Iran should know that. Thats what I feel about New York. They should know that. Seperate yourself from the convicted. And they already knew it. I got niggaz in jail, I got Niggaz, out there, but its like the media it's pumpin this east coast west coast and some of these niggaz whos careers are through ya know what I mean, like De La Soul has come out and talked that Renisannce shit and try to clean u p hip-hop. I'm all for positivity, I'm all for change. But I'm not for niggaz masqueradin' and if its all over and your shit ain't poppin don't come in here and start criticizin' as your comeback. Thats wrong, You know how hard it is. you know how hard it was when you didn't have no money and no record deal. Why you gonna try and destroy another niggaz career." (from Pac's Interview)

^^here Pac explains why he disses De La soul

Why take out a number of disses about big time gang members and leave disses of Tut and Agnant? Especially when Pac was dead anyway.

Perhaps he dissed them again in the outro, but to a greater extent beyond calling Agnant a "snitch" and saying "gunshots to Tut." I remember once reading that the removed disses were a lot more graphic and talked about putting contracts on people's lives, maybe not only Tut and Agnant but perhaps others as well. Besides, I think Pac probably took the disses out himself before he died, as opposed to a producer or studio engineer doing it. Maybe he realized that it's not the smartest thing to claim to be putting money on people's heads, especially when these people are real gangsters who could have him killed much more easily than he could have them killed.

 

[troublesome2004]

On the unofficial 'album' 'In His Own Words' there is one part of Pac interview where he says this:

They was like, "good, we gave him love, we gave this, we gave that, he was talking all this unity shit". But when they go home [they be talking a lot of shit], Q-Tip, they made all these underground tapes dissin' us. [Q-Tip??].. Yesss, Q-Tip! But then when niggas ride back, then they wanna talk about the culture and be hip hoppers again. But that's not fair. How you gone be bold? And that's what they all do. They all play bad.

^ Let me make some slight corrections to the interview you quoted:

They was like, "good, we gave him love, we gave this, we gave that, he was talking all this unity shit". But when they go home [they be talking a lot of shit], Q-Tip, they made all these underground tapes dissin' us. [Q-Tip??].. Yesss, Q-Tip! But then when niggas ride back, then they wanna talk about the culture and be hip hop and shit again. But that's not fair. How you gone be both? And that's what they all do. They all play badasses.

Sorry, I just had to make those adjustments
