00:00Happy birthday to you, everybody, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to me.
00:30Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you.
00:38I always looked at him as just being like this rich Harlem cat who just want to dance and make money.
00:44All the ladies look so right, all the papers, all the real players in the motherfucking house, throw your hands in the air.
00:51No violence in them, but every time I turn around, there's violence.
00:57There's violence with his name on it.
01:05At the time, there's this tension that is going on between Pac and Puff.
01:10Puff wanted to work with Pac on a lot of levels business-wise, and Pac wasn't having it.
01:18He was more interested in Biggie and his crew.
01:22Puff was very threatened by Pac.
01:26He was very threatened, especially if you're an executive who wants a guy to make you money, and the guy is saying, no, fuck you.
01:33Around that time, Tupac was going to do a song with Lil Sean at Quiet Studio.
01:43Out of the blue, they wanted me to do the song, so I said, all right.
01:47Stopped off to get some weed, smoked the weed.
01:50Then I was getting a page, where you at, where you at, where you at, why you ain't coming?
01:54I was like, I'm coming, I'm on my way, hold on.
01:56I wasn't thinking, why they want me here so bad?
01:59We're walking up to the building.
02:01Somebody screamed from the upper top of the studio, and it's Lil' Caesar.
02:05He's like, Biggie's side man, right?
02:07We was in the recording with Big and Puff, and I'm yelling, like, yo, Pac.
02:10And he looked up, yo, what's up, little nigga?
02:13I go back in the room, I tell Big, I'm like, yo, Big, Pac downstairs.
02:16He was like, oh, all right, go get him.
02:18Getting to the elevator, and when I was about to walk out, two dudes came from both sides.
02:23Get the fuck back in the elevator.
02:24Ooh.
02:27Recording artist Tupac Shakur was shot five times last night
02:30in a robbery attempt.
02:31After surgery, his condition was upgraded to satisfactory, and he checked out of the hospital
02:36against his doctor's advice.
02:37I think they're trying to rub me out, really.
02:40Robbers don't leave behind $80,000 Rolexes.
02:43You know what I mean?
02:44They don't do that, in case nobody knows.
02:47Let's look at the facts.
02:49Puff is there.
02:52Pac has been shot in New York under your watch.
02:56Question would be, who knew that he was pulling up?
02:59Biggie, knowing myself, had nothing to do whatsoever of Tupac being robbed.
03:08We, we, that's just a fact.
03:10After everything that has unfolded, I have to think twice about how that situation went down.
03:16Do you think Puffy was alive, shooter?
03:18I believe so.
03:19I do believe so.
03:20I have proof.
03:21But you can see now why someone like a Puff would want someone like a Pop out the picture.
03:27You know, Pop was vilified while he was alive, and Puff was exalted.
03:36That's the bigger picture.
03:37That's the bigger picture.
03:38And that's the story that hasn't been told.
03:43No, no, that's no character anymore.
03:44Rob, we.
03:50You know what?
03:51I have a heart damage.
03:52By Stan.
03:53J. Brown, what have you.
03:55It allows them to get a clearer picture.
03:56Straight to the defense horizontally faster.
03:58faster right and it also diversity makes you think a tick longer
04:03yeah which is a sign to me like time to order the future time to order the future
04:19I was a little builder yeah for the building I got ready for you son you know what I'm saying
04:24there was a sign for me like that but I'm saying that shit was there like two months ago right
04:29I'm not sure Puff is in this position where he has all this turmoil but he's not at the point
04:47where he's saying where I went wrong he's saying to himself how do I get out of this
04:52maybe I can convince some witnesses that I'm not the guy who I am eventually he's going to get to
05:01the point where he's going to ask himself how did I get myself in this situation
05:06this is mad I get 95 he had two of the hottest acts
05:20great map game was flavor in your ear
05:22bad boy was rising up my little lab right here you know where I cut my deals and all that got my
05:40little headset living out a dream you know what I'm saying one time Sean was in his office and I'm in
05:44a little cubby hole around the corner he buzzes me so I get up and I go in with my papers and go
05:52a girl is giving him a blowjob at the desk he wanted me to see that he wanted me to see her face
05:59and then he was able to get her to do that right then and there in the office
06:03she leaves I'm what did you want me for ah I didn't want you for anything
06:09that was the beginning for me to see this is what's going on here
06:15so the seeds for all of this was early on
06:23and that came from people in the industry co-signing his activity
06:32because it brought money in
06:36I don't know if y'all niggas know this

07:56and play by the rules
07:59no I'm the rule now
08:00I am the exception to the rule
08:02one day it seemed like out of the blue
08:13my door opens up
08:16Sean walks in
08:18he had a baseball bat
08:20had a big attaché case suitcase with the snaps on it
08:25the stocks were there

08:30whatever your
08:30he wanted me to sign my 25% over
08:32and diddy's over me like this

08:39I'm not gonna stay fucking lying down
08:42I'm not
08:42I can't do that man
08:43he said there's a business deal
08:45I need to take care of
08:46I need to do this
08:47and I need to get this all on one side
08:48but I'll give it back to you
08:50I'm gonna give it back to you
08:52and he threatened
08:57until I did
08:59people always say to me
09:04why would you do that
09:06but why did you do that
09:09like that was you know
09:10I didn't want to give it back
09:16I wanted to stay in good graces
09:18I still wanted to be at the company
09:20it wasn't like he was firing me
09:22but I was definitely confused by it
09:26it might sound strange
09:29but if you've ever built something
09:31and you want it to last
09:34you think about how to make it last
09:37I thought he was kind of cool at first
09:54and then
09:55we started seeing some things
09:58Craig started becoming disenchanted
10:03I want to congratulate Craig Mack
10:04on his Grammy nomination
10:06I didn't question you
10:07yes baby
10:07that's cool
10:08yo you got nominated for a Grammy
10:11but we had no money
10:13if you look at Bad Boy
10:15Bad Boy didn't sell enough records
10:18to explain his wealth
10:21but enough artists
10:23were on the label
10:24that sold enough records
10:26to explain his wealth
10:28Sean's trick was
10:30I'm going to make you a star
10:32you sign
10:32follow the money
10:33that's what you're going to try to do
10:35as hard as you can
10:36you're going to try your best
10:38and we know you're going to try your best
10:39so you sign your deal
10:41we gave you your advance
10:42at Uptown
10:42that's the only money
10:43the artists have ever seen
10:45that first advance
10:45Andre had to wait it
10:47he never saw anything else
10:48did he pick that up
10:49he made it even tighter
10:52don't leave the girl around me
10:53true player for real
10:55that's tough that deep
10:56it's a shell game
10:57you hide everything
10:59that is an earning
11:01you confuse the earnings
11:03and now I own everything
11:04you'll go out into the world
11:06and the shell game
11:07you'll be looking for your money
11:08for the next 20 years
11:09Sean did that to every artist
11:12you're in the studio
11:14now you have to recoup
11:16for being in the studio
11:18Puff owns the studio
11:20and I have four sessions
11:22which you owe me $400,000
11:23if Puff records a song
11:27with his artist
11:28he pays himself
11:28if he's in your video
11:32he pays himself
11:33he insert himself
11:35into their videos
11:37a video come on
11:38you'll be like
11:38I fucking hate that guy
11:40as an artist
11:41you can go number one
11:42song is being played
11:43all over the nation
11:44but you don't have
11:46the money to go to it
11:47because you're not making
11:48the proper money
11:50off of your royalties
11:51Craig and I hit a point
11:55where we were fucked up
11:57no money, nothing
11:58hell, I was getting money
12:00from my father
12:01to take care of the house
12:03we were all at like
12:07somebody's album release party
12:09and Craig's gonna tell Puff
12:10to give him a few dollars
12:11and he'll hit him back
12:13once he went and did this show
12:14he literally went in his pocket
12:16and pulled out
12:18a knot of money
12:20this big
12:21and gave him
12:22$100 bill
12:24you really just
12:28don't give a fuck
12:29I think Sean
12:33had an envy
12:34for his own artists
12:35he was jealous
12:37of their talent
12:37and wondering like
12:38this talent is wasted
12:40on people
12:41who don't even really
12:41know what to do
12:43and if I had that talent
12:45in my know-how
12:46wow
12:46that's interesting
12:48because a lot of people
12:48Puffy's age
12:49want to grab this mic
12:51and rap
12:52but Puffy
12:52you wanted to do other things
12:53and you're doing a lot of them
12:55can you talk about his skills
12:56as a rapper
12:57sucks
12:58he has zero talent
13:00musically
13:00nothing
13:00he don't know how to discuss
13:01he don't know nothing
13:02about R&B
13:02he don't know none of that stuff
13:03he used to ask me
13:04to always be there
13:05when the sessions
13:06because I would tell the truth
13:08I'd be like
13:08that's not it
13:09people would be there
13:10like yeah that was tight
13:11that was tight
13:12I'd be like
13:13look for real
13:14you got a lot of people
13:15who just tell you anything
13:16that sucked
13:17it doesn't sound good
13:19and it makes no sense
13:20but he always wanted
13:23to be an artist
13:24we about to just drop
13:26our R&B stuff
13:27the Puff Daddy album
13:28yeah what about the Puff Daddy
13:30solo project
13:30yeah
13:31we don't like to talk
13:32about that
13:32Sean used other
13:36methods and ways
13:38to get the way
13:38he had to go
13:39big on strategy
13:42big on swag
13:43all of those things
13:45became important
13:46when it boiled down
13:47to the music
13:48even if I didn't touch it
13:50I showed you what to do
13:51so that's what he was
13:52that whole bad boy
14:01was built on him
14:03you cannot take that
14:05from him
14:05but I think that Puff
14:08he wanted the light
14:09like he always wanted
14:10from dancing
14:12the whole now you see
14:13anybody that's boasters
14:14and loud like that
14:14they want to be in the spotlight
14:15it wasn't like no secret
14:18that's what he wanted
14:196'3, 335 pound
14:24Suge Knight
14:25has managed to become
14:27the head of
14:27a $100 million record company

14:30at ground zero
14:31of the whole
14:31gangster rap phenomenon
14:33Death Row Records
14:34Suge was about that money
14:36but he didn't want to be
14:38in that limelight
14:40like Puff
14:40he had his own lane
14:43you're a big guy
14:44and there are people
14:45who are afraid of you

14:49the person who did
14:51the greatest job

26:33by two long-standing
26:35rivals
26:35in the Los Angeles
26:36youth gang scene
26:37groups who call
26:38themselves Crips
26:39and wear blue colors
26:40and Bloods
26:42who wear red
26:42did you guys

26:49Christopher Wallace
26:52was a friend
26:53and you know
26:55when we hanging out
26:56with our friends
26:57we don't protect our
27:00friends
27:01so they knew
27:02and they were
27:04our associates
27:06you got beef
27:07with them
27:07you got beef
27:08with me
27:09period
27:10a number of reports
27:12have come out
27:12Bad Boy Entertainment
27:13had actually hired
27:14Crips for security
27:15work out on the
27:15west coast
27:16is that true?
27:18we've never
27:19hired
27:20Crips
27:21or any other
27:22gang faction
27:23to do security
27:24for us
27:25it would be
27:25extremely unintelligent
27:27to hire
27:28a gang
27:29some gangs
27:30to do security
27:31for you
27:31a lot of the
27:32New York guys
27:33come out to LA
27:35Zip is a person
27:36that I know
27:37that was
27:39Puffy's man
27:40that was his guy
27:41Eric Von Zip
27:44is a drug lord
27:45from Harlem
27:46but Sean
27:47told me
27:48he was his uncle
27:49he might have
27:50known Janice
27:51on the fringe
27:51he might have
27:52known Sean's father
27:53from those days
27:54Zip
27:56had a relationship
27:57with the
27:58Southside Crips
27:59and then he also
28:00had a relationship
28:01with us
28:02Sean said
28:04Zip can give us
28:05protection
28:05going back and
28:07forth to LA
28:08because he was
28:09in with the
28:09Crips
28:10and we had
28:11a beef
28:11with Suge Knight
28:13and the Bloods
28:14Knight dresses
28:15in all red
28:16the colors of
28:17the drug dealing

28:29one of the
28:31Crips
28:31tried to take
28:32a death row
28:33chain
28:33I think that
28:34was an order
28:35from Bad Boy
28:36that was an order
28:36from Puff
28:37because it was
28:39specific
28:40we want
28:40a death row
28:41chain
28:41introducing the
28:43one and only
28:44Iron
28:45Mike Tyson

28:54people got to
28:56see Tyson

29:00with a left hook
29:01and Selvin is down
29:02it's over

29:31he just
29:32whispers to Pac
29:33that's him
29:34it was Orlando
29:40Anderson
29:40from
29:41Southside
29:42Crips
29:42who was connected
29:44with Puff
29:45next thing I know
29:46I see Pac
29:47like
29:47took the niggas down
29:51that was the
30:00foundational moment
30:02when all this
30:03was getting out
30:04of control
30:04I'm out of one
30:06right now
30:07I got a
30:08couple guys shot
30:09and medical
30:10A-shot
30:11rapper Tupac Shakur
30:16was shot in the chest
30:17this morning
30:18shot multiple times
30:19in the chest
30:19in a drive-by
30:20death row record label
30:22owner Marion
30:22Suge Knight
30:23was also in the car
30:24but his injuries
30:25were minor
30:25Craig called me up
30:28it was late
30:28he was out there
30:31at the fight
30:32because he was
30:33supposed to have
30:33performed
30:34at some club
30:35that Suge
30:37owned
30:37and I guess
30:39Tupac was
30:40supposed to
30:40come through
30:41he was like
30:42how come
30:43Tupac just
30:44got shot
30:45Craig was
30:46like scared
30:47who was he
30:48scared of
30:49probably Puff
30:51he ended up
30:53not going
30:54to death row
30:55after that
30:56I was in jail
31:08I was in jail
31:09when he got shot
31:10there was a lot
31:12of niggas in jail
31:13that was celebrating
31:14Puck's death
31:15I'm glad that
31:18I didn't kill anybody
31:20or anybody killed me
31:21but I damn sure
31:23came close
31:24Police in Las Vegas
31:27say they have
31:28no motive
31:29for this latest shooting
31:30but the rapper's
31:31troubled past
31:32will certainly
31:32be part
31:33of the investigation
31:34Do you know
31:37who was responsible
31:38for the killing
31:39of Tupac Shakur?
31:40No I don't
31:41I think that
31:44Sean now
31:44in my mature mind
31:47had a lot to do
31:48with the death
31:49of Tupac
31:50In 2006
31:59I was recruited
32:00to work a task force
32:02that was going
32:03to look at
32:04a cold case investigation
32:05At the time
32:07Tupac's murder
32:08was an unsolved case
32:10Gang crimes
32:12often times
32:13are difficult to solve
32:14because you don't
32:14look at cooperating witnesses
32:16They want to
32:17stick to a code
32:18that typically entails
32:20not cooperating
32:21with law enforcement
32:22and then taking matters
32:23into your own hands
32:24It ain't my job
32:26to snitch on nobody
32:28because I would never
32:28snitch on nobody
32:29We had built
32:31a narcotics case
32:32against Keefy D
32:33Keefy D was kind of
32:35the shock caller
32:36for the Southside Crips
32:37He was the most
32:38prominent drug dealer
32:39He was very influential
32:41in his gang
32:42His nephew
32:44Orlando Anderson
32:45was a very well-known
32:47violent gang member
32:48Tupac Shakur
32:50had assaulted
32:51Orlando Anderson
32:52just after
32:54the Mike Tyson fight
32:55So Keefy D was potentially
32:58looking at a life sentence
32:59for federal drug trafficking
33:01We wanted to question him
33:03about his potential role
33:05in the murder
33:05of Tupac Shakur
33:06We let him know
33:08that he could potentially
33:09mitigate some of the damages
33:11if he wanted to come in
33:12and talk to us
33:13and the U.S. attorney
33:15agreed that they'd
33:17allow Keefy D
33:18to do a proffer session
33:19Keefy, today
33:21what we're going to do
33:21we're just going to go
33:22over with a fine-tooth comb
33:24through the Las Vegas incident
33:25We do have to
33:26emphasize to you
33:28it's determined
33:29that some of these details
33:30are incorrect
33:31and everything's
33:32off the table
33:33A proffer session
33:34is when a person
33:35facing criminal charges
33:37can answer questions
33:39wherein self-incriminating
33:40information
33:41would not be used
33:42against him
33:43in a criminal prosecution
33:45doesn't mean they have
33:46any kind of immunity
33:47Hey, I want to say
33:51this though too
33:51I feel like I said
33:54that day
33:54don't bullshit me
33:55and I won't bullshit y'all
33:57You know what I'm saying?
33:58In the year prior
33:59to the murder
34:00of Tupac Shakur

34:04conversations
34:04with Sean Combs

44:57What goes down, must come up.
44:59Fuck.
45:03I remember, in 1999, we were working in the studio
45:07on a song called Muscle Gang.
45:10This is our gang.
45:13We ain't playing with you these niggas.
45:16Come on, man.
45:17The song comes on, and Puff was talking in the beginning.
45:20It's 1999.
45:23No more Mr. Nice, guys.
45:25I'm like, what is he talking about?
45:28Fuck with me, I dropped a million dollars on your hands.
45:31You'll erase you and your own family.
45:33It's gonna start making y'all niggas disappear, man.
45:35Everything that's done in the dark must come to light.
45:38Everything that goes up must come down.

46:08Yeah, we rolling.
46:09With the backdrop of East Coast, West Coast beef, Sean took Biggie to Los Angeles
46:28to record what would be the finishing touches on Biggie's Life After Death album,
46:34which wasn't titled that yet.
46:40Yo.
46:41Yo, Big, wake up.
46:42Wake up, baby.
46:43Diddy, what the fuck, man?
46:44What's up?
46:45Come on, man.
46:46We got the 7.30 flight on the LAX.
46:48Whoa.
46:49Cali?
46:50No doubt, baby.
46:51We have been warned to not come to LA.
46:55There were warnings all along for the last few months that we are not to set foot on the
47:01West Coast.
47:03It was awards show season, and Sean wanted him to start promoting the album.
47:09Come on, Saltrain.
47:10Get up out your seats.
47:11Come on.
47:12Get up out your seats.
47:13Get up out your seats.
47:16Biggie did not want to go, but Sean talked him into doing all of those things.
47:22Down low.
47:23Get up out your seats.
47:24Come on.
47:25I'll pop off freaks.
47:26All the honey.
47:27They were like catcalling and booing.
47:36What's up, Cali?
47:38We were not welcome.
47:41After the awards show, Saturday morning, Biggie and I were to go to London, and we were
47:47going to have a two, three day press junket.
47:50To have Biggie be one of the first artists from Bad Boy to meet the European press.
47:56I had worked on that for months and weeks leading up.
47:59We were supposed to go to the airport that morning.
48:03I'm calling Biggie like crazy.
48:05What's going on?
48:06Wake up.
48:07He's like, yo.
48:08Puff is bugging.
48:09He just called me and told me, I want you to stay here in LA.
48:12I don't want to stay.
48:13I want to go.
48:15But Sean was adamant.
48:18Cancel the flight.
48:21Biggie's not going to the UK.
48:23What do you mean?
48:24He's not going to click.
48:25He hangs up.
48:26This was his M.O.
48:28Ego, power, tripping.
48:31All of it because Sean wanted to do a party on enemy turf.
48:41Scared to death.
48:46That's how real it is.
48:47I think somebody's trying to kill me.
48:49I'll be waking up paranoid.
48:50I'll be really scared.
48:52I'll just be peril.
48:57That night, Big and Puffy was with us.
49:08They were having a party.
49:14I spoke to Big and I was like, yo, man, you know, what are you doing?
49:20Catching LA, man, they get down in these circumstances, man, and you just can't be
49:26walking around here freely.
49:36Everybody's mingling.
49:41I look around.
49:42I say, where's Big?
49:45I want to get out.
49:46Get out.
49:47Hey, why don't you see?
49:48Wait.
49:49Hold up.
49:50Hold up.
49:51Zoom in.
49:52Why don't you see?
49:54That's big of me.
49:55That is big of me now.
49:56That's big of me.
49:57That is big of me now.
49:59Why don't you get down?
50:01Somebody got shot.
50:02Somebody got shot.
50:03Somebody got shot.
50:04Somebody got shot.
50:05Somebody got shot.
50:06What are you reporting?
50:07Yeah, we need an ambulance on Fairfax and Wilshire, Drees, Los Angeles.
50:11yeah we need an ambulance on fairfax and wilshire please los angeles we have a man shot we have a
50:18shot okay hold on listen sir i can't hear what you're saying we're man shot in our car right
50:30now right now we're trying to roll into the hospital i know the way see the sun
50:36i was following big's lead on like you know we're going to do this peace tour
50:56and you know it didn't work out sean said it don't can't stop won't stop biggie wanted to go
51:06take a left man he's lying about that sean wanted that trip and was pushing it for weeks
51:17and weeks he lied about it and let me know that's a weak spot for him and he's nervous about that
51:24information he ushered biggie to his death
51:38who do you think called biggie
51:42next question
51:43all it was is a puffy and suge knight war you're messing with lives here and that's exactly what
51:53happened two lives were lost as a result of what stupidity when i sat down with valetta we briefly
52:01brought up sean combs it was clear to me that she had no real respect or appreciation for him sean
52:08clearly didn't do all that he could have done to help out in the investigation in fact he was a
52:14hindrance in the investigation puffy was kind of stonewalling people from talking because he knows
52:20if you make inroads on biggie's murder you're going to make inroads on tupac's murder and that
52:27potentially can lead right back to him
52:28how are uh biggie's mom and faith and the kids taking all this um biggie's moms and faith and the
52:38children are extremely strong they've been matter of fact they've been strong for me and helping to
52:43hold me up and sean assumed the position of his best friend in every article and publication
52:52and that wasn't necessarily true and i'm going to be there for them just like he would be there for
52:57them to make sure that they're all right sean said we're going to do the biggest funeral for biggie
53:02that new york has ever seen and we start to put that together he starts to see the price
53:09he says we're going to do the biggest funeral but biggie's going to have to pay for this funeral
53:16he was going to make the funeral be a recoupable charge to biggie in death
53:21this is one of my closest friends and it's still one of my closest friends i just i feel his loss i
53:30just miss him so much sean doing a big show looks good on him but he's not going to tell the world
53:39that biggie was going to pay for in best style brooklyn the whole hood was outside if you could make
53:55it there you was there it was a big loss for the city i loved biggie biggie inspired me he gave me hope
54:06he made us feel like he was from the town you could make it we loved biggie so it was like losing a
54:11family member he just wanted to be a rap superstar he didn't want to hurt nobody
54:21he's probably one of the only people i had really trusted like for a long time it's not a feeling that
54:26i really felt a lot like in my life i don't really have a lot of friends i think people think i have a
54:31lot of friends you know i don't think i really make a good friend before he was assassinated biggie
54:40had an opportunity to be on the cover of rolling stone we were delivering the elements so that can
54:48happen and sean called me and said pull that cover i need to be on the cover my solo album is coming in
54:56july no way out and i need to amp that up he took the cover from biggie
55:09another thing at the time biggie was negotiating his contract every day i wake up
55:16we acquiesced and gave him everything he wanted and then he died can't believe you ain't here
55:21sean wanted me to change the agreement to more favorable terms for bad boy and his family and
55:31mother would not know and since he had signed the agreement he wanted those changes to come from out
55:38of the center of the agreement and have those pages replaced with the other terms and i said that's not
55:44right i'm not doing it 90 days later i'm fine it's like i feel empty inside without you being here
55:58i remember michael jackson the motel 25 special mtv madonna like a virgin and i remember puff
56:08with sting
56:16having a tv moment in music is very rare it elevates you to such another level
56:22a superstar they made him rockstar fish it's kind of hard but you're not around
56:28know you in heaven smiling down watching us while we pray for you he became humongous but now it's him
56:36now i'm the man it was like a dream come true to see the lines like in front of the stores like
56:43people going there to get my records it's crazy it all happened pretty quickly for you from being an
56:49intern to being on the cover of the rolling snow thanks for biggie's mother who's sitting right

57:22aubrey it's a pattern with him
57:27violence was a very normalized part of living in that world
57:34allegations of sexual misconduct puffy called these encounters freak off witnessed diddy abusing cassie
57:40and that they encouraged assie to get away from him everything in life you're going to have people
57:47that are bad and people that are good you know you have to choose your side
