FBI Releases Its File on Tupac

[Stred]

Tupac Amaru Shakur (1971-1996) was an American rap music artist. This release consists of a 1997 investigation into allegations that extortionate death threats had been made against Shakur and another rap artist by a domestic terrorist group.

I tried to read the Biggie file but it was heavily edited. In those files they did mention the dispute arising from Tupac being owed $10m by Death row. They also said that Tupac was signed to Bad Boy in the early stages of his career????? Or was that just a sentence coming out wrong after all the editing?

 

[Preach]

I didn't quite get your point with the first few sentences, Kobe. What dispute?

Didn't read the file, but I also never heard about Tupac being signed to Bad Boy. Maybe it implies he was in talks about signing with Bad Boy before his court case and shooting made him team up with Death Row instead. It makes sense that it was brought up at some point by either Puffy or Biggie, but if I remember correctly, Tupac was signed to Interscope up until he signed with Death Row, which is under the Interscope umbrella anyway. Bad Boy is under Warner, and I think a lot of the reason why Tupac was let go by Interscope was because they would still make money off of him on Death Row, while keeping him in jail without paying bail wouldn't be as financially beneficial. I don't see where in the time line he could be signed to Bad Boy.

The dispute between Suge and Tupac, hence Tupac wanting to leave Death row. We've been hearing this as a theory but the Biggie files do say it's an actual event. A lot of other rappers wanted to leave Death Row, but they were scared for their lives. Tupac was the only one who was seemingly speaking out about money issues. He wanted his tapes and money and was ready to move out.

The Tupac files release by the FBI don't relate to his murder. They relate to an extortion event by associates of the JDL on both Tupac and Eazy E.

JDL.... As in Jewish Defence League?

 

[Kobe]

^Yeah, that's it.

JDL.... As in Jewish Defence League?

Yup.

 

[Pittsey]

Is that not a bit strange?

 

[EDouble]

Exactly what I was thinking.

In case any of you are wondering:

JDL officials did not respond to requests for comment.

Except to say "we want the expansion of Israel and will extort rappers"




Can anyone explain the JDL's connection to extortion to me... Not one of their usual acts of terror is it?

Next thing Al Qaeda will be throwing eggs at passing cars.

Basically the FBI documents are saying that the individuals would make phone calls, death threats etc, then kidnap the victims, take them to a secure location full of JDL security and basically force them to pay them in order for their safety. The JDL were the muscle in this instance, much like the NOI have been in certain other cases.

 

[Bobby Sands]

i read throught parts of it and it just the same thing over and over about the JDL and their extortion attempts, as well as numerous excerpts from magazines and newspapers.

i wonder if its possible if the JDL had any involvement in his murder.

I find the whole connection mind boggling. I don't think there's any chance that the jews killed Pac though.

It basically shows that politics comes second to crime, no matter which terror group you are part of. And don't anyone mention crime funds the "soldiers" malarky. The whole jewish influence is plain to see in all western governments, they aren't short of cash or political power.

I was kind of hoping this board could be a respite from the "Jews run the world" stuff.

Don't blame me. Blame the JDL. Tell them to leave our rappers alone.
