Actress Jada Pinkett-Smith stopped by Sway In The Morning on Wednesday (July 19) to discuss her forthcoming film with Queen Latifah, Girls Trip, and wound up talking about her relationship with the late Tupac Shakur. After claiming she had some real “crazy days” over 23 years ago, she eventually went into more detail about her time with the Hip Hop legend.
“It’s kind of hard because I haven’t really told the whole story,” Pinkett-Smith said. “One of the things that’s very interesting that I’ve never really said before is that when I first met ‘Pac … when we first met, I was a drug dealer.
“I won’t get into the details of it ’cause I’m going to write a book about it … but just to give you … like that’s how we started,” she continued. “Then as I was coming out … something very bad happened to me … as I was coming out of the life, he was going more into the life.”
Will Smith’s better half (and mother to Willow and Jaden Smith) went on a Twitter tirade after the Shakur biopic, All Eyez On Me, came out, which she said misrepresented her interactions with Shakur. By the sound of it, Pinkett-Smith’s book might tell the full story about her connection to Shakur in the future.
Watch the full interview above.
Petty self promotion, -5 points lady
Bullshit!!!!!!
Can ppl see the bullshit by her propaganda? Peep game…Now every since pacs movie came out she’s the only one that’s constantly been speaking her disapproval about it. Having lil rants on Twitter n shit and now she used to be a drug dealer? All this is is promotion because she has a moving coming out and she’s the most well known actress out of all the other women, so she’s just building anticipation for it. STOP INTERVIEWING THIS BITCH!!
Jada has been speaking on Pac for years before that wack movie came out. I thought her rant about the misrepresentation of how things were with them was a bit much because it wasn’t eluding to something disrespectful like them having a big fight or fucking (even though most of us still think that went down), but she always has brought Pac up in interviews and stuff the last 20 years even when interviewers don’t ask her about him and that’s more than I can say for some of his so called homies in the game that half the time look annoyed that people still are asking them about him 20 years later. Like you ask dudes that ate off of him that did songs with him and shit about what some unreleased songs were like or how certain songs came together, and they are like, “Oh, I don’t remember that shit. It was so long ago. That’s old shit” Like they got anything else going on today that anybody gives a shit about that they would completely forget one of the few times they were doing something relevant.
why do these idiots self snitch? ain’t no statute of limitations on that bullshit.
Lol. Who’s locking Jada Pinkett up? Self-snitch? You fools that never hustled feel you have a right to voice opinions on things you know nothing about other than the internet. You never played the game…dont speak on the rules.
I think the fact that she’s never spoken on it is being pretty tight lipped. Also, who has 30-year statutes of limitations on selling dope, as we’re talking about the late 80s here in Baltimore? If that’s the case, a lot of people in our government past and present need to get down.

Selling nickle sack does not make you a drug dealer. lol
Yes it does. It just doesnt make you aboss. You kids try to change definitions, but denied.
I am 47 and have friends and family that are real drug dealers
U stupid a hustler is a person trying to b make money no matter how much it is… Dumb ass let me guess u a boss lol
Key word ” hustler ” big difference
And Pac WAS NOT
It’s possible she came from a poor background.you don’t know what she went through
Jada is from a middle class family. She was just a bad girl. She’s admitted as much. I’m pretty sure her mom was a nurse or some shit because she always tells about how fucked up Pac’s home life was and how bad they were living when she first went to visit his place and saw the poverty they were living in.
