Reincarnated: The ‘Scary’ 2Pac Vision That Continues To Inspire Kendrick Lamar

Reincarnated: The 'Scary' 2Pac Vision That Continues To Inspire Kendrick Lamar

Kendrick Lamar’s new album GNX not only shines a spotlight on Los Angeles’ current crop of rising rappers such as AzChike, Hitta J3 and Lefty Gunplay, but contains an overt tribute to one of the city’s most famous adopted sons, Tupac Shakur.

As an ‘80s baby who grew up in L.A. — specifically Compton — during 2Pac’s prime and even witnessed the rap legend film scenes for his original “California Love” music video with Dr. Dre at the Compton Swap Meet as a kid, his love of ‘Pac is no surprise.

But for Kendrick Lamar Duckworth, it goes deeper than that. In the early hours of September 13, 2010 — exactly 14 years after 2Pac’s death — the then-up-and-coming lyricist had an eerie dream in which Shakur came to him and delivered a message that would have a profound impact on him.

“I was coming from a late studio session, sleeping on mom’s couch. I’m 26 now — it wasn’t that long ago,” he recalled in a 2013 interview with GQ. “I remember being tired, tripping from the studio, lying down, and falling into a deep sleep and seeing a vision of ‘Pac talking to me.

“Weirdest shit ever. I’m not huge on superstition and all that shit. That’s what made it so crazy. It can make you go nuts. Hearing somebody that you looked up to for years saying, ‘Don’t let the music die.’ Hearing it clear as day. Clear as day. Like, he’s right there. Just a silhouette.”

Explaining how the spiritual encounter influenced his approach to music, he added: “It wasn’t just about money, hos, clothes, drinking. I mean, I come from that world, but at the same time, I started to realize that there’s people out there that can’t really connect to that lifestyle. They’re in the struggle.”

Kendrick noted in a separate interview with Home Grown Radio that just a day before the “scary” vision, his mother pointed out to him that his and ‘Pac’s birthdays are just one day apart. “I never knew that shit,” he said. “That was some wild shit.”

2PAC’S ALLEGED KILLER KEEFE D WILL BE ARRAIGNED

2PAC'S ALLEGED KILLER KEEFE D WILL BE ARRAIGNED

Tupac‘s alleged killer, Duane “Keefe D” Davis, has received an arraignment date, after it was revealed that he’s being held without bail in Las Vegas, NV.

Source: HipHopDX

According to court documents obtained by HipHopDX, Davis has been charged with the Category A felony of “murder with the use of a deadly weapon with the intent to promote, further or assist a criminal gang.” The prosecution is alleging that Davis murdered Pac at the behest of the South Side Compton Crips.

The motive for the killing, according to the prosecution, was “retribution” against the “Dear Mama” rapper, as well as former Death Row CEO Marion “Suge” Knight. Davis will be arraigned on Wednesday (October 4) for the crime.

A copy of the indictment, along with Davis’s mugshot and a copy of the upcoming docket, can be seen below.

The caption in the indictment refers to Davis as “Keffe D,” rather than “Keefe D,” though he’s used both nicknames interchangeably.

After the grand jury return hearing on Friday (September 29), Sheriff Kevin McMahill of Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department held a press conference to discuss the details of the arrest. McMahill made clear that there’s no statute of limitations for murder in Nevada (or any other state in the union), and credited Davis’s arrest to his department’s dogged willingness to solve the case.

“For 27 years, the family of Tupac Shakur has been waiting for justice,” he said in the press conference. “It has taken countless hours — really, decades — of work by the men and women of our homicide section to get to where we are today.”

He continued: “While I know that there have been many people who did not believe that the murder of Tupac Shakur was important to this police department, I’m here to tell you: that was simply not the case. It was not the case back then, and it is not the case today.”

Davis’s arrest marked the first ever arrest in the investigation into ‘Pac’s murder, which remained unsolved for 27 years.

2Pac was shot multiple times in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas on September 7, 1996. Six days later, he died in hospital from his injuries, cutting short the life of one of Hip Hop’s most influential figures.

Lil Wayne Reacts To Being Ranked 7th Best Rapper Of All Time

Lil Wayne Reacts To Being Ranked 7th Best Rapper Of All Time

Lil Wayne has responded to his placement on Billboard’s controversial “50 Greatest Rappers Of All Time” list, which saw him ranked at No. 7.

Source: HipHopDX

The Young Money mogul recently sat down with Zane Lowe at Apple Music to discuss his highly anticipated album, The Carter 6. Amid talks about the project, its Swizz Beatz-produced single “Kant Nobody” with the late DMX, Tunechi remarked that he is simply not concerned with the ranking as he’s confident that everyone knows he’s really the G.O.A.T.

“Man, who the hell is before me?” Wayne questioned. “Was the list including ALL Hip Hop, like before and after as well? I can deal with that… I will tell you that I am a muthafuckin’ one. Everybody whose names you named, they also know I’m number one. Go ask ’em. They know what it is.”

Ahead of Wayne on the list, in reverse order, were Biggie Smalls, Eminem, 2pac, Nas, Kendrick Lamar and JAY-Z.

Despite proclaiming himself No. 1, Wayne recently confirmed that, in his book, Hov remains the greatest rapper ever.

“The greatest rapper of all time is Shawn ‘JAY-Z’ Carter,” he declared on a November episode of Marcellus Wiley’s More to It podcast. “When you do this rapping thing, obviously like football, every sport is different. You play hockey, I’m sure they got something that they only know about. Something that they probably can’t explain, but only they know. That thing in rap, that we only know in rap, he has that. He’s the Tom Brady of that.”

Elsewhere in his new interview with Apple Music, Weezy gave a little insight on what fans can expect from the forthcoming C6.

“Everybody already know,” Lil Wayne said. “You already know. Come on – it’s Carter 6. I never even imagined. That didn’t even sound right years ago. I can’t believe we’re at Carter 6. My fans know I give my all. Go listen to my last feature and know it’s gonna be a thousand times better than that.”

While he has yet to set a release date for the LP, Lil Wayne has kicked off his roll out with the release of the DMX-assisted single and a tour announcement.

The 28-city Welcome To Tha Carter tour kicks off on April 4 at The Fillmore in Minneapolis. Wayne will trek through Detroit, Toronto, Houston, New York and other cities before wrapping in Los Angeles at The Wiltern on May 13.

Chris Brown Names His Mount Rushmore Of Hip-Hop

Chris Brown Names His Mount Rushmore Of Hip-Hop

Source: AllHipHop

Chris Brown struggled with his selection of elite MCs worthy of a place on the all-time greats list and ended up with a total of six names.

Selecting just four names to be immortalized on Rap’s Mount Rushmore is a tall task for any head, and it was no different for Chris Brown when he was asked to name his personal list of the greatest MCs.

The R&B singer was challenged to name the rappers on his G.O.A.T. list during a recent interview with Power 206’s L.A. Leakers. While he was quick to rattle off the first few names, he realized he spoke too soon.

“Jay-Z, Nas, Big L, and Tupac,” Chris Brown revealed after just a few moments of thought. However, he changed his mind just seconds later and had to make some alterations.

“Skrrt, put Biggie in the spot of Nas!” he said before clarifying he still has love for his former collaborator. “I love Nas, damn. It’s f#####’ up!”
