And it came to Suge Knight’s attention that Tupac was going to leave Death Row Records – and the evidence shows you just don’t leave Death Row Records and get away with it," said LAPD Detective Russell Poole, who worked closely with author Randall Sullivan on LAbyrinth, a damning look into the LAPD's involvement with the Death Row Records label head and pattern of police brutality and cover-ups, all of which were chronicled in reports on the LAPD Rampart Scandal. "Tupac Shakur was becoming a very outstanding actor. 13, 1996 and that…Ĥ. Suge Knight - and his then-attorney David Kenner - called for his death. Of course, the CIA has long refuted this.Īlternatively, there are those who believe that Shakur did die on Sept. He's being harbored by the government as a witness. Assata was a staunch figure within the Black Panther Party and the Black Liberation Army who sought political asylum in Cuba in the early 80s after escaping from a New Jersey prison following a hotly-contested murder conviction.ģ. Some speculate that Shakur was weary of the bloodshed that accompanied rap beef and longed for an escape, holing up in Cuba with his aunt, Assata Shakur. Many times this has given victory to him who used it."īut believing that Machiavelli espoused faking one's death, fans reasoned that Shakur's adoption of the stage name, Makaveli, and the inclusion of the phrase "Exit 2Pac, Enter Makaveli" in the album sleeve for The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory - an album which also depicted Shakur as Jesus Christ - were all deliberate clues left behind by the artist. Theorists have also picked apart a video interview with Shakur's mother Afeni - the only individual besides hospital personnel to see the artist after he was admitted - who said, "in the end, he chose to leave quietly." Machiavelli actually wrote: "Sometimes it has been of great moment while the fight is going on, to disseminate words that pronounce the enemies' captain to be dead, or to have been conquered by another part of the army.
Conspiracy theorists have rationalized it by pointing to Shakur's respect for political philosopher Niccolò Machiavelli, whose treatise The Art of War (not to be confused with Sun Tzu's The Art of War) has been misconstrued as advocating for faking one’s death in order to manipulate an enemy. This is perhaps the most pervasive theory that emerged after the rapper died days after he was targeted in a drive-by shooting on the Las Vegas strip.
