The shooting was very convenient for Pac as crazy as that may sound..I maintain that he was extremely jealous as were many other rappers of the rise of Biggie .and he was a megalomaniac. Unlike other rappers who gave props and recognized the superiority of Biggie and learned to live with it, Pac couldnt bear it.
He had been in the game a few years, and absolutely hated the fact Biggie got so much love overnight and set a label on the map single handed that challenged the might Death Row and with titles of King and the Greatest on top. Pac was also a known liar, but you can tell from the way he spoke about Biggie sleeping on his couch that Biggie's rise threw him off so bad and he knew he couldn't compete mic to mic so he drummed up the shooting in the face of irrefutable proof Big and Co had nothing to really do with it to try and discredity Biggie and slow him down. Why the hell would Puff and Big set him up?? thats where his megalomania sets in..there was no incentive in it, and he was talking crazy.
I always got the same vibe as well. When you listen to his interviews/rants about being forgotten & "his spot taken" when he was locked up he definitely came off as jealous. Even though he wanted other rappers to succeed I got the feeling he didn't want or would like someone being bigger or perceived as better than him.
Do me a favor and read this post twice. This so called "plot of revenge" that you reference only exists in your head, it exists in the plot of music videos - an entertainment medium as Tupac was (ding) and entertainer. It was used as entertainment. Once again your whole rhetoric on what he should've done would only benefit him if there was a "so called plot for revenge". Seeing as we both know there was no "plot of revenge" then we shouldn't be arguing about how he should've handled things if he wanted to enact a "plot of revenge" - you're arguing about a hypothetical scenario, it's really amazing that you don't see that.
, but you already initiated the complaint and you don't wanna stop now. Even though you know a whopper shouldn't have Big Mac sauce
