Sean Diddy Combs is in custody!


Finally Justice is coming down on Sean “Diddy” Combs previously known as Puff Daddy, Puffy and P. Diddy who was just arrested in New York after federal indictment and so after months of us all wondering when this day would come since everything about his evil doing has broken. Remember to us who have been on the side knowing that Diddy is an evil devil who has not just been behind the death of Tupac & Biggie Smalls but he also destroyed the lives of all his artists and stole their money. But we also all in the rap community knew for years he was doing crazy stuff in his "freak off" parties but the law wouldn't touch this creep.. Like Epstein Diddy has got away with his sex crimes for years and I hope all his Victims both Male and Female come forward and just end him.

This is directly to you USHER, and to you Justin Beiber... Time to make things right and it's time you all said the truth of what was done to you two as kids outloud, and save the future actors, singers, and entertainers from being taken advantage from evil people in the industry like "Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs," "Jeffrey Epstein" or "Harvey Weinstein." I wonder how much of this whole thing is cause Keefe D has been snitching from behind bars? I hope with this arrest we also get more justice and answers not just on the sex crimes by Diddy but also the truth about his involvement in the death of both 2pac & Biggie Smalls aka Notorious B.I.G who was born Christopher Wallace. As we know 2PAC died in 1996 and BIG in 1997. The arrest follows several sexual assault lawsuits and Homeland Security raids on two of Diddy’s mansions.

“Earlier this evening, federal agents arrested Sean Combs, based on a sealed indictment filed by the SDNY. We expect to move to unseal the indictment in the morning and will have more to say at that time,” U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said in a statement released on the social media platform X. Details about Combs’s arrest remained unclear Monday night. His representatives declined to answer several questions about the events leading to the arrest. According to the Associated Press, Combs was arrested in a hotel lobby in Manhattan and remains in federal custody. “We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office. Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is a music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man, and proven philanthropist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire, adoring his children, and working to uplift the Black community,” Marc Agnifilo, attorney for Combs, said in a statement.

“He is an imperfect person, but he is not a criminal. To his credit Mr. Combs has been nothing but cooperative with this investigation and he voluntarily relocated to New York last week in anticipation of these charges. Please reserve your judgment until you have all the facts. These are the acts of an innocent man with nothing to hide, and he looks forward to clearing his name in court,” the statement continued. The arrest comes months after the first of eight sexual assault lawsuits was filed against Combs last year and follows raids by the Department of Homeland Security on his mansions in Los Angeles and Miami in March. The agency did not publicly confirm the nature of the operation at the time, but a law enforcement official, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation, told The Washington Post that the searches were part of a sex-trafficking investigation.


The first suit was filed in November 2023 by Cassie, who dated Combs between 2007 and 2018, when she was a singer signed to his Bad Boy record label. Her suit accused Combs of more than a decade of “abuse, violence and sex trafficking,” including an incident at a Los Angeles hotel where, Cassie claimed, Combs beat her and paid hotel staff to obtain the security footage. Cassie and Combs settled the lawsuit for an undisclosed amount a day after it was filed, with Combs maintaining his innocence. Months later, surveillance footage obtained by CNN showed Combs assaulting Cassie in 2016 at the Intercontinental Los Angeles Century City hotel. The video clips showed Combs pursuing her down a hallway, throwing her to the floor as she tried to call an elevator and dragging her off-camera.

Reports circulated in July that a federal grand jury in New York was weighing evidence against Combs. By that time, eight people had accused the famed music executive of sexually assaulting or trafficking them. The allegations spanned the length of Combs’s career, with several women accusing him of raping and drugging them in the 1990's. Four people, including Cassie, have also alleged that Combs engaged in sex trafficking. Rodney Jones, a producer who worked with Combs on his most recent album, alleged that Combs was trafficking sex workers as recently as 2023.

Liza Gardner accused Combs and singer-songwriter Aaron Hall of raping her in 1990. Joi Dickerson-Neal alleged that Combs drugged and raped her in 1991. Crystal McKinney, a former model, accused Combs of drugging and raping her during New York Fashion Week in 2003. In another suit, April Lampros alleged that Combs had raped her multiple times between 1995 and 2000, when she was fashion student. A lawsuit filed in December claimed that Combs and others in 2003 trafficked and raped a 17-year-old, identified in court filings as Jane Doe. In February, Jones, the producer who worked with Combs on his 2023 project, “The Love Album,” accused Combs and others of sexual assault, as well as drug- and sex-trafficking.

Lawsuits have been filed against Combs as recently as last week. Dawn Richard of Danity Kane, a girl group formed by Combs, filed a suit on Sept. 10 accusing him of sexual and physical abuse. The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, alleges Combs was abusive throughout the eight years he and Richard worked together. Richard accused him of groping her, threatening her and subjecting her to “inhumane working conditions,” such as depriving Richard and her band mates of food and sleep for up to 48 hours “because he was high on drugs.” In the suit, Richard also claims to have witnessed Combs become physically violent with other women, including Cassie whose legal name is Casandra Ventura and Kim Porter, his former partners. In a statement provided by Combs’s attorney, so you know this is a lie considering Diddy denied ever hitting Cassie and than we saw it for ourselves on video. So I personally think them claiming denial is a bit late and for his statement saying this was a “series of false claims” and accused Richard of seeking “a payday.” Get real... This is Justice coming down finally on a person who has had this coming for 3 decades close to 4. To finish this off I'm gonna let 2PAC deal with this below in the greatest diss song ever made... 

We HIT EM UP 4 PAC 4 LIFE...

P.Diddy CHECK To KILL Tupac LEAKED Online?


Well now that finally there has been an arrest in the now 27 year old cold case of the murder of rap megastar Tupac Shakur. The person arrested as we know is Keefe D who confessed to being part of the hit and he said he handed the weapon used in the murder to his cousin Orlando Anderson. But were they paid to have pac killed? Now the claims is that P. Diddy paid for the NYC 94 hit on PAC and that money he paid was why Keefe D and his crew ended up executing PAC in 1996 after the initial attempt on his life didn't go as planned and PAC survived the 94 attempt on his life.

Now it's being said a possible copy of the check provided by P. Diddy might have leaked online? Well let's look at this video below addressing this matter further in a way that well is pretty damning on Diddy. Personally I feel Sean Combs known as Diddy had an involvement in both Tupac & Biggies murders and the shooter was Orlando Anderson and his people from the crip gang sect he belonged too. Orlando Anderson was also killed months after Tupac died. Now I've thought this since the late 90's but not until Keefe D came forward did it all start to unravel. 

This video is very interesting and revealing on what could very well be 100% correct in how it ties Combs to the shootings, and well I think it's time justice comes for the BADBOY executive who indeed belongs investigated and if found guilty should be sent ironically to DEATH ROW for his crimes on both icons losing their lives. I've hated Sean Combs since I first laid eyes on him as he looks like a lying snake in my opinion. 

Again if this is proven he belongs rotting in prison on Death Row...


 Does BIG'S mom Voletta Wallace feel this way? Find out below...


This poor woman had to lose her son due to his association with Sean Combs? IF This is true man oh man does Sean Combs belong in prison. I feel so badly for her and the late Afeni Shakur who both has suffered the biggest loss any parent could face losing their child to crime with nobody caring enough to see Justice carried out and looking on ways to solve these crimes. Now that finally there has been one arrest again of Keefe D perhaps we might see movement in solving both murders.

While I never Met Tupac in person he's my all time favorite artist/rapper and I did also love Biggies music and was a fan of his, and got to meet him back after "Ready 2 Die" came out at a restaurant here near Miami Airport as he and members of Junior Mafia were here to represent at a show in South Beach to promote his "Ready to Die" album. He was from my only encounter with him as a very nice guy and while I was a kid he spoke to me on the level, and had this to say to me... "Don't think you can't be great even if you're family is poor young man stay positive... Look at me and how I've made it even tho I wasn't born rich." He was not the evil person in my opinion or how some people claimed.

But might have been stuck in the middle of this beef with Tupac because of Combs. So I do hope the law catches whoever killed these two icons. Hope justice is served once and for all and these men get to finally rest in peace.

God bless the dead...

Keefe D indicted on murder of 2PAC

So nearly 30 years after we lost the most influential voice in the music I love most hip hop, and the artist who's music has been my favorite since his first cd came out 2pacalypse now in the early 90's, there’s movement in the case of Tupac Shakur’s murder. 

Here’s what we know so far as of now the unsolved killing of Tupac has taken a new twist. Authorities in Nevada confirmed that they served a search warrant this week in connection with the rap star’s shooting death in 1996.

One of the last living witnesses to the fatal drive-by shooting of rapper Tupac Shakur in Las Vegas was charged with murder with use of a deadly weapon Friday in the 1996 killing, a long-awaited breakthrough in a case that has frustrated investigators and fascinated the public ever since the hip-hop icon was gunned down 27 years ago.

A Nevada grand jury indicted Duane “Keffe D” Davis in the killing, prosecutors announced in court Friday. Chief Deputy District Attorney Marc DiGiacomo said a grand jury had been seated in the case for “several months.” DiGiacomo described Davis as the “on-ground, on-site commander” who “ordered the death” of Shakur.

The charges were revealed hours after Davis, 60, was arrested this morning while on a walk near his home, according to DiGiacomo. Davis has long been known to investigators and has himself admitted in interviews and in his 2019 tell-all memoir, “Compton Street Legend,” that he was in the Cadillac from which the gunfire erupted during the September 1996 drive-by shooting. Shakur was 25 when he was killed.

Police seized laptops, memoir from Vegas-area home of witness to Tupac Shakur’s 1996 killing in a Las Vegas-area home searched by police investigating the killing of rapper Tupac Shakur in 1996 is tied to Duane “Keffe D” Davis.

Tupac Shakur’s long-unsolved killing again under spotlight as Las Vegas police conduct search Authorities in Nevada say they have served a search warrant in connection with the long-unsolved killing of rapper Tupac Shakur in September 1996. Las Vegas police raided a home in mid-July in the Las Vegas suburb of Henderson that is tied to Davis. Police were looking for items “concerning the murder of Tupac Shakur,” according to the search warrant. They collected multiple computers, a cellphone and hard drive, a Vibe magazine that featured Shakur, several .40-caliber bullets, two “tubs containing photographs” and a copy of Davis’ memoir.

Clark County District Judge Jerry Wiese denied Davis bail. “It has often been said that justice delayed is justice denied,” District Attorney Steve Wolfson said after the hearing in a brief comment to AP. “In this case, justice has been delayed, but justice won’t be denied.”

It wasn’t immediately clear if Davis has an attorney who can comment on his behalf. Davis hasn’t responded to multiple phone and text messages from The Associated Press seeking comment or an interview in the more than two months since the house raid.

Shakur was in a BMW driven by Death Row Records founder Marion “Suge” Knight in a convoy of about 10 cars. They were waiting at a red light when a white Cadillac pulled up next to them and gunfire erupted. Shakur was shot multiple times and died a week later at the age of 25.

The rapper’s death came as his fourth solo album, “All Eyez on Me,” remained on the charts, with some 5 million copies sold. Nominated six times for a Grammy Award, Shakur is still largely considered one of the most influential and versatile rappers of all time by rap fans world wide. Rumors that he's still alive, and hidding in fear for his life has been around since the day his death was announced. Now with this investigation and arrest perhaps both Tupac and his amazing mother Afeni Shakur who also left the earth a short while ago can both find peace. This is good news for the fans, family, and the loved ones of both Afeni and Tupac.


In his memoir, Davis said he was in the front passenger seat of the Cadillac and had slipped the gun used in the killing into the backseat, from where he said the shots were fired.

Davis implicated his nephew, Orlando “Baby Lane” Anderson, saying he was one of two people in the backseat. Anderson, a known rival of Shakur, had been involved in a casino brawl with the rapper shortly before the shooting.

After the casino brawl, “Mr. Davis formulated a plan to exact revenge upon Mr. Knight and Mr. Shakur” in his nephew’s defense, DiGiacomo said. Anderson died two years later. He had denied at the time being involved Shakur’s death. Something nobody believed but Davis revealed in his memoir when he first broke his silence in 2010 during a closed-door meeting with federal and local authorities.

At the time, he was 46 and facing life in prison on drug charges when he agreed to speak with them about Tupac’s killing, as well as the fatal shooting six months later of Tupac’s rap rival, Biggie Smalls, also known as the Notorious B.I.G.

They offered to let me go for running a ‘criminal enterprise’ and numerous alleged murders for the truth about the Tupac and Biggie murders,” he wrote. “They promised they would shred the indictment and stop the grand jury if I helped them out.”

Shakur was feuding at the time with rap rival Biggie Smalls, who was fatally shot in March 1997. At the time, both rappers were in the middle of an East Coast-West Coast rivalry that primarily defined the hip-hop scene during the mid-1990s. Greg Kading, a retired Los Angeles police detective who spent years investigating the Shakur killing and wrote a book about it, said he’s not surprised by Davis’ arrest.

The former Los Angeles police detective said he believed the investigation gained new momentum in recent years following Davis’ public descriptions of his role in the killing, including his 2019 memoir.

“It’s those events that have given Las Vegas the ammunition and the leverage to move forward,” Kading said. “Prior to Keffe D’s public declarations, the cases were unprosecutable as they stood.”

The sad part is that this took so long, and Afeni didn't get to see this. This is awesome news. Made my day a whole lot better. NOT shocked I knew for years Keefe D, Orlando Anderson, and the Dancing Queen in Diddy were all involved. NOW I hope it all comes out. Hope if Diddy is indeed involved he goes to prison for life.

COLD CASE Cracked? Tupac Shakur Murder Case REVIVED As Police Execute Search Warrant



Back in the early to mid 90's we lost in a row Eazy E (1995), Tupac Shakur (1996) and Christopher Wallace aka "Notorious B.I.G" (1997) We know Eric Wright aka Eazy E died of aids in a very mysterious way even Suge Knight once said on the Jimmy Kimmel Show that Eazy E was injected with the AIDS Virus. This would explain how he got AIDS but his then wife who was pregnant at the time checked out ok and so did his kids. Nobody solved that if there was any truth to how Eric Wright aka Eazy E died or caught Aids.

The Murder Cases of both 2PAC & BIG have yet to be solved all these years later where only online fan gossip about how they died is what's kept interest in the cases. Both 2Pac & BIG have since sold Millions of records post their passing, and with 2Pac selling the most since also he left behind a lot more material. Snoop Dogg recently bought Death Row Records and all the music left in the vault and he said there is still some material with 2Pac which will be put online for fans to listen to in due time. But as for the case on his or BIG's death nothing.

Until now! Seems like some how after all these years the Las Vegas police department have REVIVED the case and just asked for a Police Search Warrant due to what is being claimed to be new evidence which could possibly bring new light to this long case which should have been solved years ago.



As new details come out I'll keep you all posted here as you know I'm a big 2Pac fan and also Eazy & BIG fan. So I do hope they solve these cases and bring closure to the families. Rest in Peace!

RIP - Mutulu Shakur Passes away at 72


The man who Tupac Shakur called his dad while not his biological father that was Billy Gerland. Mutulu Shakue adopted Tupac and gave him his name once he married Tupacs mother Afeni Shakur. Mutulu was a New Afrikan Activist and a member of the Black Liberation Army who was sentenced to sixty years in prison for his involement in a 1981 robbery of a brinks armored truck in which a guard and two police officers were murdered.

Mutulu Shakur (born Jeral Wayne Williams; August 8, 1950 – July 7, 2023) was a New Afrikan activist and a member of the Black Liberation Army who was sentenced to sixty years in prison for his involvement in a 1981 robbery of a Brinks armored truck in which a guard and two police officers were murdered. Shakur was politically active as a teen with the Revolutionary Action Movement (RAM) and later the black separatist movement the Republic of New Afrika. Being the step dad of Tupac Shakur is what he will probably be remembered for the most but Mutulu who was paroled after serving nearly 37 years of imprisonment, and died about eight months later was much more. Shakur was born in Baltimore, Maryland on August 8, 1950 as Jeral Wayne Williams. At age seven, he moved to Jamaica, Queens, New York City with his mother, who was blind,and younger sister.

By his late teens, Shakur was politically active with the Revolutionary Action Movement (RAM) and later joined the Republic of New Afrika In 1970, Shakur began working with the Lincoln Detox program, which offered drug rehabilitation for heroin addiction using acupuncture — instead of the FDA-approved drug methadone. Eventually, he became the program's assistant director and remained associated with the program until 1978. He became certified and licensed to practice acupuncture in the state of California in 1979. He went on to help found and direct the Black Acupuncture Advisory Association of North America (BAAANA) and the Harlem Institute of Acupuncture.

Brink's robbery, arrest, and incarceration Shakur was one of several Black Liberation Army members to carry out the October 1981 robbery of an armored car in Nanuet, New York. Aided by the May 19 Communist Organization and former members of the Weather Underground, the BLA crew stole $1.6 million in cash from a Brink's vehicle at the Nanuet Mall. The robbers killed Brink's guard Peter Paige and seriously wounded another, Joseph Trombino.

Soon after, they killed Nyack, New York police officers Edward O'Grady and Waverly Brown, who had stopped a getaway vehicle. Shakur, the alleged ringleader of the group, evaded capture for more than five years and thus was the last one to go on trial on charges related to the robbery. In 1982, Shakur, Marilyn Buck, and others involved in the BLA and M19CO were indicted on Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) charges, encompassing the Brink's robbery and other similar robberies, as well as engineering the 1979 escape from a New Jersey prison of Assata Shakur. While at large, on July 23, 1982, he became the 380th person added to the FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list.

He was arrested on February 12, 1986 in California by the FBI. An order for Shakur's release on pretrial bail was overturned by the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Shakur and Buck were tried in 1987 and convicted on May 11, 1988. He received a 60-year sentence. The convictions and sentence were upheld on appeal.
Although federal parole was abolished in the Sentencing Reform Act of 1984, Shakur's convictions were exempt because the Act's provisions did not apply to crimes committed before November 1987. 

Under the rules in effect at the time of his offenses, Shakur was due for a mandatory parole determination after serving thirty of his original sixty-year sentence, which came in 2016. However, the United States Parole Commission denied his release in 2016, 2018, and early 2022. In October 2019, Shakur renewed his quest for a reduction of sentence by applying to the sentencing court for compassionate release under the First Step Act, but relief was once again denied.

On November 10, 2022, the Parole Commission reconsidered his case and granted Shakur release on parole effective December 16, 2022 in light of his declining health. Shakur was freed on that date, and died about eight months later.

Tupac Shakur posthumously receives star on Hollywood Walk of Fame!





Like some of you know "2Pac" or "Tupac Shakur" or however you would spell his name just got a long overdue posthumously star on Hollywood Walk of Fame! Shakur is one of only 12 rap artists, including Queen Latifah and Ice-T, who have received a star on the Walk of Fame and the first I do think but I could be wrong on that so don't sue me if there is one other or two.



But as a BIG BIG fan of 2Pac since 1990 and having seen him rise, and pass way to seen and having heard all his music hundreds of times, and knowing all the lyrics all I can say is he should have got one 2 decades ago at least. But better late than never.



He lived to be only 25 yet his music is still hitting people today like if he could tell the future. IF You listen close it's like he speaks of what we're facing today in a lot of what he said when he was in his early 20's. Without a doubt a man before his time, and one who left us many songs, and a few movies to marvel at the talent that was taken in 1996... He will always be my favorite rapper, and he will always be an influence in me, and the hip hop culture. Rest in Peace to him and thank god they finally are showing Pac love with this STAR... It's something to show he left his imprint in society and the people involved in these matters are finally starting to wake up... Hope they're listening to his words in his music too.



Remember he said it... "It's NOT THEM that's killing us... It's us that's killing us". He was talking about White people, and the Police compared to Black on Black Crime... Black people pay attention.

Tupac dissed on A Newly Surfaced Record by NAS That’s Just Over 25 Years Old

Well it’s like pac said “They talk shit when I’m gone cause they fear me in the physical form… I’m Troublesome.” Now More than 25 years later which is as long as 2pac lived, Nas and Tupac were entwined in a short-lived hip-hop beef which blew up due to the 2PAC & B.i.G Beef. It began in 1996, when Nas released his second album, It Was Written. It featured “The Message,” a track on which Tupac believed he was dissed. Tupac later released “Against All Odds,” with his own shots at Nas. But before they patched things up, Tupac was tragically killed in a shooting.

Soy 25 years after their beef came to an end, Vibe reports that an unreleased record by Nas has leaked, and it features him taking strong shots at the late rapper. His attacks arrive halfway through the song’s first verse. “From tube-socks in Timbs to blue rocks and Benz / Who got the ends, the type of n***a 2Pac pretends,” Nas raps. “To all n****s who shine, guess who got revenge / I won’t showboat, my flow choke you.” This marks the first time fans hear Nas directly, unambiguously diss Tupac on a record.

Last summer, Nas spoke about the moment Tupac confronted him about the alleged (though not confirmed) diss on “The Message” during an interview on Ebro In The Morning. Nas explained that he thought I was dissing him on the song ‘The Message,’ and I heard he was dissing me at clubs,” the rapper revealed. “He was like ‘Yo Nas, we brothers, man. We not supposed to go through this.’ And I’m like, that’s what I’m saying.” He added, “We had a plan to squash it in Vegas. So I was out there when he was in the hospital, praying for him to come through. Rest in peace.”

While the lyrics are clever it just shows that NAS didn’t mean anything said in that and it was all rhymes because he quickly was able to end their feud, and was at the hospital as 2Pac passed in 1996.

In his reply to NAS Pac has this track which was recorded but never released, and it’s part of the music still in the vault from the recordings Tupac has that well have yet to be on an official cd release. This track is fire, and I could see with the right production it could be mixed into at least 2 tracks with other rappers banging on it to fill out a new Tupac cd. Perhaps Tha Outlawz might want to get this on their future cds? OR maybe Amaru Records will put that idea on a future pac cd who knows.

This would have been his 50th Birthday...


So June 16, 1971 was the day Tupac was born, and after a short 25 years of life his life was cut short by a shooter, and one who is believed to have been Orlando Anderson the same dude who Tupac, and others on Death Row Records got into a fight the night Tupac was shot at the MGM hotel. This has been a long rumor since that fateful night, and one which I believe to be on point given my own person investigation into the shooting over the last 2 decades. Yes which includes actually speaking to people involved in the life of Pac, and who knew Orlando Anderson. They all think Orlando did it, and it was all set up after their fight. The current theme for years has been that Orlando called Biggie, and PDiddy and told them what happened, and they said to find him, shoot them, and the hit was for both Pac & Suge. Only Pac was hit the most, and died as a result, and the rest is now in the history books sadly.


A number of rumors have spread about the rapper over the years like when Suge Knight previously said the rapper had spoken about faking his own death when they were on vacation. His son, Suge J. Knight, is convinced Tupac is living in Malaysia and that his death was staged by the Illuminati. Many ‘sightings’ over the years have led people to believe that the star faked his own death, while others are convinced he’s living in plain sight.

Also Jada Pinkett Smith and Tupac Shakur’s relationship has long been a topic of discussion and she went as far as to trash the biopic about Tupac “All Eyez on Me” which came out a few years ago as she said it didn’t show their relationship how it went down for real, and from what I was told that was done out of respect to her since she has not really spoken publicly a lot about their time together but she took it the wrong way and got mad. The two were high school classmates at the Baltimore School for the Arts, Tupac played Jada’s still head-over-heels in love ex-boyfriend on A Different World, and their platonic friendship is one that has been both admired and envied by many, including Jada’s husband, Will Smith.

In honor of his memory and what would have been the rapper’s 50th birthday, Jada shared a never-before-seen poem Tupac wrote. I think this is where he got the song name, and partial lyrics for the track “Lost Soulz” with Tha Outlawz. Anyway check out the video posted by her below.

You can read the full poem below:
Some say nothing gold can last forever
And 2 believe this I need no proof
I have witnessed all that was pure in me
Be changed by the evil men can do
The innocence possessed by children
Once lived inside my soul
But surviving years with criminal peers
Has turned my warm heart to cold
I used 2 dream and fantasize
But now I’m scared 2 sleep
Petrified, not to live or die
But to awaken and still be me
It is true that nothing gold can last
We will all one day see death
When the purest hearts are torn apart
Lost souls are all that’s left
Down on my knees I beg of God
To save me from this fate
Let me live to see what was gold in me
Before it is all too late

Rest in Peace Shock G of Digital Underground


WOW another major blow to the nation of hip hop… Gregory Edward Jacobs, known professionally as Shock G, was an American musician, rapper, and lead vocalist for the hip hop group Digital Underground has passed away, and man has 2021 just not sucked? It’s now taken now 3 icons, and with just recently losing Black Rob, and DMX I thought things would calm down, and we wouldn’t endure more loses in 2021 but man this one again another punch to the gut as yet another rap icon who helped shape my generation of hip hop fans is gone too soon.

Shock G who again was responsible with Money B for rap group "Digital Underground" which spawned “The Humpty Dance” performed by Shock G as Humpty Hump. He also was on 2Pac’s breakthrough single “I Get Around”, and co-producer of 2Pac’s debut album 2Pacalypse and now has left the world for the next level of our spiritual evolution. He now joins Tupac and others who have since passed away. I’ve been a long time fan of both his, and Money B the head honcho of Digital Underground (who I have the honor of knowing and calling a friend.) Even got to work with Money B on an artist website he had for a while, and met him thanks to my friend Mike "Outtasite" Singleton who I was an old co-host & Producer of his on his podcast show. "Outtasite Radio" which ran for two years on the networks I'm still currently on. PSN RADIO & SoFloRadio.


This news comes as shocking as any, and sad as you can imagine. I remember as a kid watching them on the film “Nothing but Trouble” and loved the song in that movie so much I became an instant fan… This lead to my following another artist who was in the crew with them, and you might know this guys name he was called um……. Oh yea! Tupac Shakur! The thing is without Digital Underground I can’t say we would have met Tupac when we did, and how we did, and he would have gone to become the icon, and face of a generation for minorities in America.

Now while that song is dope Digital Underground will always be best known for this! The Humpty Dance! Let’s be real this is an iconic gimmick. Shock G played both himself, and the iconic “Humpty Hump” and this song here is one of hip hop’s all time classic tracks.


As “Rackadelic” he illustrated album covers and provided art direction; as the “Piano Man” he contributed keyboard tracks and music production. His main persona “Shock G” utilized a more natural voice, while he altered his voice to become “Humpty Hump,” an iconic character with an exaggerated buffoon persona, colorful clothes, and a Groucho glasses-and-nose disguise. He used a nasal voice for the character Humpty. At most public appearances, Jacobs would show up as one person or the other, but at live shows and video shoots he would use a stand-in or camera tricks to maintain the illusion. A fictional biography was constructed for Humpty, the story being that Edward Ellington Humphrey III, former lead singer of “Smooth Eddie and the Humpers,” had become a rapper after burning his nose in a kitchen accident with a deep-fryer (the story was even told by Casey Kasem himself on his then countdown show Casey’s Top 40). Jacobs also sometimes performed as other characters including MC Blowfish, Icey-Michael Boston, The Computer Woman, ButtaFly, and Peanut Hakeem.

Shock G’s TV appearances include Showtime at the Apollo in 1992, several The Arsenio Hall Show performances between 1990 and 1994, and several live MTV performances, including MTV Spring Break 1990 in Daytona Beach, Yo MTV Raps (performing live with Ed Lover and Doctor Dré) in 1991, Club MTV Live (with Downtown Julie Brown) in 1992, and MTV Jams in 1994. Most of these consisted of music performances with either Digital Underground or 2Pac, however, on an episode of the 1991 sitcom Drexell’s Class Jacobs played a small acting role as a furnace repairman. Within the show’s story, the title character, Otis Drexell, insists that the furnace repairman looks exactly like Humpty Hump, but both himself and his coworker (Jason Priestley), have never heard of any such hip-hop artist, especially not one with such a ridiculous name. The episode ends with a live performance of Digital Underground’s “No Nose Job” on a cruise ship full of Sports Illustrated swimsuit models, which is presented as a scene from one of Mr. Drexell’s dreams.

With his Digital Underground band members, Jacobs appeared in the Dan Aykroyd directed comedy Nothing but Trouble appearing as both Shock-G and Humpty Hump. The group makes a cameo music performance, as well as play a small character role in the film as themselves. Since then, Jacobs has appeared in a handful of music documentaries, including Thug Angel: Life of an Outlaw (2000) about Tupac Shakur, and Parliament Funkadelic: One Nation Under a Groove (1996) about George Clinton & P-Funk, both of which received heavy TV rotation, and both of which relied heavily on Jacobs’ commentary.

On June 24, 2011, Shock G was featured on an episode of the podcast “You Had To Be There” with comedians Nikki Glaser and Sara Schaefer.

Production, solo work, and miscellaneous

In addition to his work with Digital Underground, Shock G found moderate success as a solo artist and music producer. In 1993, Shock G produced Tupac Shakur‘s breakthrough platinum single “I Get Around” as well as guest starred on the single and music video, and went on to produce Tupac’s “So Many Tears” from his multi-platinum 1995 album Me Against the World. Tupac’s first published work was while still a member of Digital Underground when he appeared on the 1991 song and video “Same Song”, which also appeared in the Chevy Chase, Dan Aykroyd and Demi Moore film Nothing but Trouble. Shock co-produced Tupac’s debut album 2Pacalypse Now. Shock G appeared as a producer and guest artist on fellow Oakland-based rap group The Luniz platinum debut release Operation Stackola in 1995, also appearing as a guest emcee in the “I Got 5 on It” Bay Ballers Remix and video.

In 1996 the Wayans brothers‘ film Don’t Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood featured the Shock-G song “We Got More”. The song, which featured Oakland rappers Luniz was used for three different scenes in the film, and is featured in two different places on the soundtrack, making it the only song to appear twice on one soundtrack. In 1998, Prince included the Shock G produced “Love Sign” on his triple-CD Crystal Ball album. Shock G has toured and performed on stage with George Clinton and P-Funk including a guest performance with Clinton at Woodstock 1999.

In 2003, Shock G produced the single “Risky Business” for Los Angeles underground artist Murs, and also appeared in the video, as himself and as Humpty Hump. Murs performed this song live with Shock G at the Paid Dues festival, and also featured him as his stage DJ/music conductor on a 2-month extensive Definitive Jux label U.S. and Canada tour. On January 20, 2009, Shock G’s single “Cherry Flava’d Email” was renamed and released as a special edition called “Cherry Flava’d Election” to commemorate the inauguration of President Barack Obama.

Trump Campaign Trolls Kamala Harris by Saving Seat at VP Debate for Tupac 😂

Lying Kamala Harris who got smoked by Pence during the debate has been at the butt of many jokes related to late rapper Tupac Shakur. Last year while on the Democratic primary campaign trail, Harris said that she used to listen to “Pac & Snoop” in her dorm as a student in college. However, it didn’t take long for many to realize that the timeline didn’t match. Harris was roasted last week after naming Pac the “best rapper alive” during an interview with Angela Rye. This latest mix up was seized upon by the Trump campaign as they decided to troll the Dems VP nominee ahead of her debate with Vice President Mike Pence.

“I can confirm that we have left a ticket for Tupac Shakur, who as we know is Senator Harris’ favorite rapper alive,” said Trump campaign senior adviser Jason Miller during a conference call on Wednesday. “I don’t know if he shows up. I’m personally more of a Biggie fan if he’s still alive, but we will have a ticket waiting for Mr. Shakur,” he added. This is hilarious, brilliant, and once again a fantastic way to show how much of a fake she is, and how she loves to pander to people in the black community without even knowing the things she’s saying. She’s not a black person folks, and never has been. Donald Trump is more black then she is.

This is what I think Tupac would say about her if he was alive…
