    He could've died the next bcuz he still entertained Suges foolishness. Suge just exacerbated the flaws of Pac being too loyal and wanting to b so connected w street matters. As much as I love Pac I just don't see it feasible for him making it alive out of the 90s given the path he was going.

    He was likely to go back to jail if he doesn’t get killed.

    He was out on bail, pending appeal, which doesn’t exactly have a high success rate.

    He was into **** frequently, beating up people in the studio (like Sam Snead) or getting into **** in the streets. He was caught on casino video jumping Orlando Anderson.

    I think Biggie was the better rapper but he got k1lled way too young as well. And with all due respect he has nothing to do w this conversation.

    It all caught up with him. That fast life is not worth it if you're not alive to enjoy ur accomplishments. No brake pedal with him then just chaos.

    He was never considered a "mob fighter" because he wasn't one.

    Patterson had a audience with the Pope in 1960, you cannot get any higher up in the Catholic church than the Pope.
