did pac n dre had ever chance 2 perform cali luv "Live" 2gether?
No. I remember reading somewhere that Dre was supposed to perform the song with Pac on SNL, but it was right when he was going to leave Death Row, so he declined. Ever thought it was funny when Pac said "Now give me that bomb beat from Dre" but muffled Dre's name during that performance?

No, but they managed to do two different videos for it. What about the "behind the scenes" footage of the Mad Max version video? Either they were cool at the time or they was just frontin real hard.
Dre was obviously fronting. But according to Frank Alexander, he was saying that everything seemed cool throughout the video shoots, and the anti-Dre campaign came out of nowhere.

Was'nt dre asked to produce some of pacs last album but declined the offer?
I wonder how All eyes on me would have sounded if dre had almost all control over it? im thinking probally a lot hotter than it turned out.Although it probally would'nt have dropped till 1998.:laugh:
Something like that. If Dre had taken the reins of the All Eyez on Me project at that stage in his career and stayed with Death Row at least until its completion, the album wouldn't have been out until summer 1996 at the earliest unless most of the beats would've been already made ones that weren't used on a retail release. If Dre had more involvement, there could've been even more gems on there. While virtually ALL of Daz's beats were tight as hell, I would've been happy with a few less questionable beats (Tradin War Stories, What'z Ya Phone #, Shorty Wanna Be a Thug, etc.).
