Since the passing of the two rap icons Tupac Shakur and The Notorious B.I.G., there have unfortunately been a lot of questions still hovering around their relationship and other personal details of their lives. In a new interview on Sway\u2019s Universe, The Outlawz set the record straight on a few points regarding one of their members, Tupac.<\/p>\n
One of the biggest takeaways from the hour-long interview below is when E.D.I. Mean explains how Tupac wanted to end the beef with Biggie, especially since the media had drummed it up to be something that wasn\u2019t accurate: \u201cI was telling [Young Noble] yesterday: we gotta tell people [that] one of the last things [Tupac Shakur] told us was, \u2018Yo, this shit with Biggie is over. I\u2019m done with it. I\u2019m wiping my hands with it after the [Don Killuminati: 7 Day Theory album released as Makaveli], I ain\u2019t even speaking on that no more. \u2018Cause at the end of the day, Big is my brother.\u2019 He actually said that.\u201d E.D.I. Mean later would add, \u201cHe [Tupac] said, \u2018Look, Big [is] my brother; I just wanted to give him a spankin\u2019 real quick. I\u2019m done with it. Mission accomplished. Let\u2019s move on. Let\u2019s move on.\u2019 Absolutely, that\u2019s what he said.\u201d<\/p>\n
Young Noble continued with, \u201cThat\u2019s when we started on the One Nation album. He started bringin\u2019 all the East Coast and West Coast dudes all together. Boot Camp [Clik] were the first dudes we brought out. That\u2019s where Pac\u2019s spirit was at. Greg Nice [came too]. He was gonna bring everybody. He was gonna bring Nas out. He was gonna go crazy and really bring everything together. He didn\u2019t like the way [the beef was portrayed]. Of course \u2018Hit \u2018Em Up\u2019 and different things started the shit, but how the media made it [coastal], he hated it.\u201d<\/p>\n
For those doubting The Outlawz\u2019s ability to find their own success after Tupac\u2019s passing, Young Noble told a caller on the show \u201cWe made our first million dollars, independently, in 2000.\u201d E.D.I. continued, \u201cAnd be clear: Pac is only on one album.\u201d<\/p>\n
E.D.I. Mean and Young Noble both appear in the upcoming All Eyez On Me film.<\/p>\n
