Was the life is mine a 2pac Diss

[The Dust King]

they can say what they want,if the words are thug life it’s mine .. i believe it was a diss

can we get a link to that 911 track?

you can believe whatever you want. your wrong tho and thas your right

 

[The Dust King]

back in ‘99 when the song was originally dropped on DJ Clues exclusive mix tape

you sound like your not really sure

 

[The Dust King]

You're all bugging the fukk out.

It was a play on the words of this song.

• radio/tv etc.

your correct it was a play on the boy is mine but the hook doesnt say "the life" it says thug life.

Doesn’t make sense when nas made we will survive around the same time

exactly. how this logic is disputed is some trumpian sh!t

Exactly..Nas has always been a big Pac fan. I doubt he was sneak dissing him after he was dead and gone for 3 years. Them Mobb Deep cats I’m more sure about.

But that song is just some young dudes flossing on tracks..celebrating succes, i refuse to believe they had Pac in mind writing that track lol

they definitely had pac in mind because the hook literally references him and both those artists had issues wit him

but it was all love

again, i gots no dog in this fight




but one has to be completely asinine to say this song wasn't a diss

the hook is


and Havoc literally starts the song out with



Thug Life was a Q-Borough term










just because i’m not a personal fan of someone has absolutely nothing to do with being bias

thug life is not Queens slang its universal and mobb got it from pac

spare me tellin me bout my boro @Frida Giezman

also Thug Life is an acronym so no its not even in the context your giving

 

[kingofnyc]

you sound like your not really sure

when it dropped, damn near everybody said it was a diss song

it is ... what it is ...

majesty said pac got thug life from stretch and the young gunz back when pac was more on that black panther shyt

 

[The Dust King]

majesty said pac got thug life from stretch and the young gunz back when pac was more on that black panther shyt

appreciate the context thas why i tagged you. i kno u Q2daheart

ight so if pac got it from stretch then it is Queens slang @kingofnyc and im wrong

but mobb deep did get it from pac because pac dropped thuglife in 94

 

[FeloniousMonk]

They was saying “Thug Life we still livin it” back in 94-95 as well. Before there was ever an issue. Like I said. Nas literally just did a tribute to Pac the year “It’s Mine” dropped.

This wasnt even a factor cuz no beefs where sparked in that time and Pac actually created Thug Life in 93 and dropped in 94.

They still had unresolved issues with Pac.

They do a song with a hook saying Thug Life being theirs.

Nas is on that hook.

To save face, because a lot of people took it as a diss.

Nas dropped tribute for p.r. sake.

Edit:My point is Nas knew Mobb was still in their feelings and Nas still got on the joint.

 

[The Dust King]

i agree but everyone says a lotta things tho breh. most things go over peoples heads

 

[kingofnyc]

see.... your statement is problaly the main reason Mobb Deep & Nas made the song



Thug Life was a term used by Queens nikkaz going back to the 80’s crack era

pac was introduced to the term by his closest homie Big Stretch

 

[JQ Legend]

not necessarily so as jayz dissed pac after he died

@Ziggiy since he gon read this anyway

If u mean dead or alive I think that's when Pac was alive, it just didn't leak till after he died

Did Hov even officially release that?

Hov shouted out Pac on the very first album he dropped after Pac died and been shouting him out since

 

[kingofnyc]

appreciate the context thas why i tagged you. i kno u Q2daheart

ight so if pac got it from stretch then it is Queens slang @kingofnyc and im wrong

but mobb deep did get it from pac because pac dropped thuglife in 94

again, i gots no dog in this fight

but as Mobb getting it from pac , is a bit non-believable due to term Thug Life originating in the same Borough as their from



imma Bronx nikka
so, cant speak on Queens like that - but i'm pretty much a million percent sure .... Nas, P & Hav used the term ‘Thug Life’ before pac ever move to Oakland & met DU

 

[Piff Perkins]

really


of course it was a diss - nikka is like 2 decades late

I'm going back to work. Breh ruined my lunch break lmao wtf

nikka how the fukk Nas drop a tribute damn near a YEAR BEFORE “It’s Mine” for PR? Does that make ANY logical sense to u? Especially considering Nas was one of the ONLY NY nikkas to do a tribute to Pac around that time. Mobb even shouted Pac out BEFORE “It’s Mine” was created. Smh.

 

[Sinister]

So we really are all going to ignore Mobb Deep hopping on a long kiss goodnight remix this same year?

ok

 

[Frida Giezman]

So we really gonna ignore Mobb deep putting drop a gem on em on their album even after pac died?

ok
