I never even thought about it like that....because I do vaguely remember Pac punching Snoop for recording songs with East Coast artists....Pac was on some 50 Cent shyt forreal

Snoop probably didn't meet Pac until 94/95ish and by 96 Pac is expecting him to be his right hand, out on the front lines in some violent rap war. Pac needed friends for real

I think he barely had real childhood homies because he moved around from NY to Baltimore to Marin City to Oakland, so he expected these rap nikkas he didn't have a real bond with to be his boys
