-Puff and Jimmy Henchmen went to Houston to request Prince mediate a truce between them and Suge. Prince had a few questions first about 2pac's NY shooting and when they weren't giving him straight answers, he decided to decline the sit down.

-When he went to visit Larry Hoover in prison they put a security badge on him which was actually a recording device. He claims their rights were violated. Goes on to talk about their relationship and the unfair/unlawful things they've done to Larry while he's been locked up.

-Supreme and Chris Gotti had to fly to Houston to clear up some business disagreement over the producer 7 Aurelius(sp)' work that he did with Murder Inc. Supreme supposedly told Chris jokingly on the way to Prince's Ranch/Compound "I can't believe we're coming out here. This is going to be our last ride." They ended up working out a deal and this was the start of Murder Inc/Rapalot/Death Row relationship.

-J says he believes the feds came after him, Irv, and Suge due to their plans to start a Recording Industry Union/distribution company.

-J doesn't seem to really like Suge. Says he agreed to partner with him and Irv because it made business since and he "does business with a lot of people he doesn't like."

-Says he was always suspicious about Suge going back to their relationship with Harry O. Harry had called them both from jail once and Suge was discussing things that "you dont' want law enforcement to know about." J says he stayed quiet the entire phone call. They had another call where J (knowing he was being recorded) made it plain he wanted nothing to do with any business dealings with them.

-His sister got cut in half by a train when he was a kid.

-Prince had to send a few "courtesy calls" and VISITS after Dr. Dre/Interscope didn't follow through on clearing a track Dre produced for Scarface. Jimmy Iovene eventually intervened after rapalot affiliates went to interscope offices unnanounced and and gave Rapalot the track for free.

-He was homophobic until a gay high school teacher taught him how to type.

-Baby has paid a couple million in "good faith payments" on the debt that he owes. The case is currently being litigated in court for the rest.

-He warned Puffy and Biggie about being in LA. Biggie got killed shortly afterwards.

-He called Master P after the issue with him and Pimp C. Told P that Pimp was with him now and reqeusted he fall back in order to keep their relationship from becoming hostile. Says P agreed and Pimp also agreed not to speak on P anymore.


Overall good read. He goes into a lot of detail about the feds case against him and harassment he faced. Other stories about the music industry and general life observations and lessons.
