How Jay get a pass for turning one of the hardest songs ever into a wack ass love ballad

[Braman]

Yep, Suge said it out of his mouth after the song came out but I forget where. He confronted Jay about how he kept saying he fukked with Pac so he should show it. …

Rumor is Jay got robbed in LA, and Suge got his possessions back for him. So, in return, Jay worked out a deal with Suge, who had Pac's masters at the time to remake that song.

Pretty interesting. It aligns with how Cam said Suge pressed him.

In the club in L.A., me and Tito poppin', yeah, we had a good night (Yeah, we did)
Walked up out of it, got approached by Suge Knight (Man, what's up?)
He said I owed him money (For a 2Pac beat?), started screwin'
I said, "No, I don't homie now tell me what we doin'?" (What we doin'?)
He said, "How you figure?" (Figure), I said, "I said so"
Tito flicked his knife, he was ready to go to death row

So jay haters will enjoy that one. Suge’s MO was to press nggas with some flimsy business claim and see who go for it. Cam wasn’t goin and Suge left him alone. Jay chose to make a hit single

coming back to this thread, i got ghetto techno stuck in my head again

which led me to do a relisten, and it actually relates to the OP, because i never noticed these lyrics:

[Chorus]
Now everybody throw a shot glass, shot glass, shot glass
Raise yo empty shot glass, shot glass, shot glass
Survived more shots than Pac had, Pac had, Pac had
More shout outs for Pac man, Poppa and Pac man
Bring it back!

my dislike of jay is seriously growing lately and i cant stop it lol

He didn't get a pass. Plenty of people shytted on that song when it came out.

Hov clears that enemiesss hennessyy nikka

 

[mikishere]

there isnt any amount of forum/online nikkas that will gaslight me into hating this song

shyt was dope and a flex at the time

 

[Figaro]

Jay acknowledged that shyt was trash when he did a twitter q & a many years back.

The joint was not really loved in the Hip-Hop circle & the whole BP 2 got criticised.

 

[Whips-n-Chains]

There was no pass, heads were clowning this in real time

 

[L. Deezy]

Taped up and robbed? Sheesh

 

[boskey]

This song and album as a whole made me no longer a Jay fan lol. It was a crime against hip hop

 

[boogers]

man... suge just makes shyt up and people believe it! i dont know why anyone believes a word out of his mouth lol. suge is full of shyt

HOWEVER i 100% believe that story about big pun chasing him. it prolly wasnt a very long chase though

the thumbnails on youtube are killing me
