Digg thisChuck D's 18 Reason Why Tupac Is Alive
-
2Pac died on Friday the 13th...
-
Las Vegas is a payoff City.. meaning all sorts
of folks have been known to be on the take.. that means doctors,
press, lawyers etc -
The white Cadillac containing the assailants was never found... How could this be when Vegas is in the middle of a
desert? -
There's a small Black community on the North
side of town.. This strip is only about 8 blocks long.. The
attackers were Black.. Where did they go? Where did they hide? -
The white Cadillac containing the gunmen passes
a entourage of 2Pac's boys. Many of them body guards... No one
gives chase and there are no witness...There were no witnesses
on the street... How come? Why not? -
The name of 2Pac's next album is Machiavelli..
He was an Italian war strategist who faked his death to fool his
enemies... Perhaps 2Pac is doing the same thing.. -
The cover of his next album has 2Pac looking
like Jesus Christ... Could he be planning a resurrection? -
Las Vegas is in the middle of the desert.. How
come there was no helicopter chase... If some one was to rob a
casino.. The LVPD would've chased you down with some helicopters..
. How come this didn't happen with 2Pac shooting? -
2Pac was cremated the day after he died...
Since when does some one get cremated the day after a murder...
There was no autopsy -
There were no ballistic tests... At least we
haven't heard about them.... -
Las Vegas is still very much a mob town.. No
one gets killed on the strip... You have to pretty much get
permission in order for something like this to happen.. Who was
calling the shots on this one? -
2Pac's vehicle got shot 12 times and Suge
didn't get hit once.. He was 'grazed' by a bullet.. Why did 2Pac
get shot all those times and Suge not get hit? -
Suge said he drove 2Pac to the hospital and
they had a coherent conversation? How bad was 2Pac hit? In
addition to all this .. there are conflicting stories claiming
that Quincy Jone's daughter was in the back of the car.. and then
she wasn't.. what's the deal for real? -
2Pac
has completed 2 movies and 3 lps that have
yet to be released.. With so many people upset about 2Pac's death
literally anything connected with him is bound to net a whole lot of
cash... -
Suge Knight and 2Pac are the only two music
industry people on that high a profile with enough balls to pull
off a stunt like faking death... -
2Pac's video 'I Ain't Mad At Ya' foretold his
death .... -
2Pac always wore a bullet proof vest but for
some strange reason he didn't wear one this time.. why not? -
The memorial services that were open to the
public were cancelled in both Los Angeles and Atlanta...

Chuck D has always been one of my favorite rappers. He'll never get to old for this s*it.
It's almost perfect.. I just feel that something is missing. But it's really worth checking out.
