5. Cam’Ron shooting and Stop Snitching

On October 23 2005 Cam’ron was shot during an alleged car jacking. He was driven to the hospital by a fan were he made a full recovery. Cam’Ron used this incident to further his Stop Snitching campaign which focused on individuals not talking or assisting police. Cam’Ron stated how he would not help police find out who shot him because he didn’t believe in “Snitching” how ever after the shooting Cam’Ron filed a police report stating the car jacking was by 15 black males which is clearly not enough to pin point the shooter. Due to Cam’Ron being completely uncooperative the police never arrested a suspect. Some claim Cam’Ron staged the shooting in order to gain publicity could this be true?

4. Did Jay-Z really stab Un?

In 1999 Jay-Z allegedly stabbed Lance “Un” Riveria at the Kit Kat Club. Initially Jay-Z claimed not guilty before later changing his plea to guilty earning him 3 years of probation. Despite Jay-Z pleading guilty there has always been speculation to whether or not he did it. In Nas’s song Ether he states your man stabbed ‘Un’ and made you take the blame” further adding to the speculation that Jay-Z may have been innocent all along.

3. Did P.Diddy set up Shyne?

On December 27 1999 P.Diddy his girlfriend at the time Jennifer Lopez and former Bad Boy artist and protege to P.Diddy Shyne were involved in a shooting which resulted in 3 people being shot. Diddy and Shyne were both arrested for gun various gun charges however all the charges against Diddy were dropped and Shyne was sent to jail for first degree assault which he is currently serving a 10 year sentence for. Shynes lawyer was able to confirm that none of the bullets found in the victims were from Shyne’s gun. So if Shyne never actually shot anybody but people were in fact shot why didn’t anybody ever try to convict Diddy? Diddy released Shynes debut album upon Shyne going to prison and with the shooting adding publicity it debuted number 5 on the billboard charts. After the release of the album Shyne was dropped from Bad Boy records. That’s really not the way you treat somebody who is allegedly in jail for defending you.

2. Vibe Awards stabbing

In 2005 Young Buck was charged with stabbing Jimmy James Johnson after Jimmy punched Dr.Dre several times in the face apparently when Dre refused to sign an autograph for him. Young Buck avoided trial and Johnson received a year in jail. Johnson claimed he was payed $5000 by Suge Knight to make a fool of Dre before he received his award. Suge Knight denied these claims but still leaves us to wonder is he still pulling the strings after all these years? Below i have added the video of the incident.

1. What really happened to 2pac?

As we all know 2pac was gunned down on September 7 1996. The case is well known for the lack of details surrounding it and the lack of progress by police. All we have to go on is theories of why Tupac may have been killed i have compiled some of the most well known theories.

• Tupac was killed by the South Side Crips after assaulting one of there members.
• Suge Knight owed Tupac  a lot of money and had him killed.
• Notorious B.I.G. and Puff Daddy orchestrated the hit.
• The Police were afraid of 2pac’s influence and had him killed.
• One of the East coast artist he was feuding with such as Jay-Z or Nas had him murdered.
• 2pac faked his death.

However none of these are proven facts and the fact is the only witness 2pacs close friend Yaki Kadafi was the only one who saw the shooters and was in fact killed shortly after revealing he may be able to identify the killers.
