P. Diddy was the special guest on Ellen (October 26) and the talkshow host decided to prank the rapper with a particularly spooky-looking Pennywise.
Sean “Diddy” Combs assured Ellen that the rumor of him being scared of clowns was absolutely not true, but Ellen’s secret scare proved otherwise.
The fans made an association with the eventual exit of Tupac instead of the clown. The reaction would have been the same …
Last month, the rapper responded to Eminem’s claim that he killed Tupac. During his recent Machine Gun Kelly diss track ‘Kill Shot,’ Eminem also hints that Diddy was responsible for ordering Tupac’s death in 1996.
Jay Electronica led the backlash against Eminem, urging him to “tread carefully”.
“How dare you accuse Diddy of killing Tupac,” he said.
Outlawz released their mixtape Killuminati 2K10 on Halloween, October 31, 2010. Hosted by DJ Smallz, the mixtape featured artists such as Stormey, Tey Martel, GLC, Tony Atlanta and Young Buck.
The mixtape featured nine music videos. The album also showcased the Outlawz doing solo songs such as Young Noble with Great Gandaddy Kush, EDI Don with Reach For The Sky and Hussein Fatal’s Do It Right.
Dave East and Styles P appeared on Hot 97 where they would discuss the history of Hip Hop with Funkmaster Flex. Dave East and Styles P recently released a collaboration album titled Beloved
.During the conversation Funkmaster Flex asked who would they consider on their top 5 MC’s from the 90s and 2000s era. Styles P goes on to add Jay-Z, Biggie, Nas, The Lox. Dave East intervenes and mentions Tupac’s name which Funkmaster Flex had mixed feelings about. “The Pac thing sometimes gets swapped out for me depending on where im at on Eminem,” explains Funk Flex. Dave East agrees to a certain degree, “Talking bars, I wouldn’t put Pac in that. He was more of a, I felt Pac.”
Somedays I get up and hes a party rapper to me – Funk Flex Speaking On Tupac
Styles P goes on to give his thoughts on Tupac, “I always felt he was the poet of our time in music. There was times where he went lyrically ape shit but there was times when I went he wasn’t the most lyrical dude. He was very much poetic.”
It’s no secret that Funkmaster Flex is not a fan of Tupac and has expressed those feelings throughout the years. Flex would go on to give Tupac some credit by saying, “yea..he had some melody.”
Certain times in my life where I was going through something…. I found myself riding to Pac – Styles P

Temple University’s Charles L. Blockson Afro-American Collection has acquired material of slain rapper Tupac Shakur—including a dozen handwritten documents and two pieces of jewelry—and is making it available to view in the photo gallery below.
Tupac is one of the most influential artists of his generation. A prominent voice of 1990s hip-hop, Shakur’s 11 platinum albums and 44 singles have resulted in more than 42 million copies in sales. Shakur was the victim of a drive-by shooting on Sept. 7, 1996, in Las Vegas; he died six days later, on Sept. 13, 1996, at the age of 25.
The Blockson Collection is one of the nation’s leading research facilities for the study of the history and culture of people of African descent. The collection of more than 500,000 items contains materials on the global black experience in all formats: books, manuscripts, sheet music, pamphlets, journals, newspapers, broadsides, posters, photographs and rare ephemera.
The Tupac’s items were acquired through a donation from Goldin Auctions of Runnemede, New Jersey, which has handled a variety of the artist’s memorabilia. Goldin Auctions donated the items to Temple due to the stature and expertise of the Blockson Collection, because Temple offers a course about Tupac (Tupac Shakur and the Hip-Hop Revolution) and due to its close proximity, said Goldin Auctions founder and CEO Ken Goldin, a Philadelphia native.
“He’s a hip-hop icon,” Blockson Collection curator Diane Turner said of Tupac. “This is a significant, contemporary addition to our already impressive collection of music items, ranging from African instruments to material from John Coltrane, Grover Washington Jr. and Natalie Hinderas. We are thrilled.”
WARNING: The following material contains explicit content and may not be appropriate for all ages. The opinions expressed and views depicted are those of the artist and not Temple University. Discretion is advised.
A collection of items belonging to the late Tupac Shakur—including jewelry and several handwritten documents—are now part of the @BlocksonTU Collection. https://t.co/XrIVyf1g8G

BEYOTCH! When we ride on our enemies
[Tupac]

Let my little cousin K roll, he’s a rider now
What they want from us motherfuckin thug niggaz?
Used to love niggaz now I plug niggaz, and slug niggaz
Am I wrong?
Niggaz makin songs, tryin to get with us
Must be gone on stress weed, in the West we trust
To the chest I BUST! Then we ride ’til the sun come
shinin back to brighten up the sky,
How many die?
Heard the Fugees was tryin to do me – look bitch!
I cut yo’ face, this ain’t no motherfuckin movie
THEN! We watch the other two die slow
Castrated entertainin at my motherfuckin sideshow
BAM! Set my plan in mo’, time to exterminate my foes
I can’t stand you hoes, uhh
Now label this my fuckin trick shot
My lyrics runnin all you cowards out of hip-hop
When we RIDE – on our enemies
[Chorus]
(You can tell by the hate in my eyes, that I’ll be down till the day that I die
When we ride, ride on your enemies.)
When we ride on our enemies
I bet you mothafuckas die
When we ride on our enemies
(You can tell by the hate in my eyes, that I’ll be down till the day that I die
When we ride, ride on your enemies.)
When we ride on our enemies
I bet you mothafuckas die
When we ride on our enemies
[Tupac]
Come take a journey through my mind’s eye
You crossed the game, don’t explain, nigga time to die, say goodbye
Watch my eyes when I pull the trigger
So right before you die you bow before a bigga nigga, now dry yo’ eyes
You was HEARTLESS on yo’ hits
Niggaz love to scream peace after they start some shit – pay attention
Here’s a word to those that robbed me
I murder you then I, run a train on Mobb Deep!
Don’t fuck with me
Nigga you’re barely livin, don’t you got sickle cell?
See me have a seizure on stage, you ain’t feelin well, hell
How many niggaz wanna be involved?
See I was only talkin to Biggie
But I’ll kill alla y’all, then ball
Then tell Da Brat to keep her mouth closed
Fuck around and get tossed up, by the fuckin Outlawz
Before I leave, make sure everybody HEARD
Know I meant, EVERY MOTHERFUCKIN WORD
When we ride on our enemies
[Chorus]
(You can tell by the hate in my eyes, that I’ll be down till the day that I die
When we ride, ride on your enemies.)
When we ride on our enemies
Make sure everybody die
When we ride on our enemies
