2Pac has been the subject of many a conversation in Hip Hop — especially in recent weeks, with the arrest of his alleged murderer Keefe D — but, according to Napoleon of the Outlawz, Keefe D’s arrest wouldn’t make Pac a happy man.
“The ultimate judgment is on the day of judgment,” he told The Art of Dialogue on Tuesday (October 3). “So I never really put too much hope on who’s gonna go to jail. Because if Pac was alive — if Pac himself would have survived the shooting — he wouldn’t want Keefe D to go to jail.”
He continued: “Other people, they might not understand it. But me knowing Pac, Pac’s not going to get no law involved. Because Pac understands that what he was doing was street stuff. Even when Pac was dying […] Pac still said, ‘I’m not talking.'”
Check out Napoleon’s comments below.
On Wednesday (October 4), the suspect (real name Duane Davis) was scheduled to appear in front of a judge for his first hearing. This would have given him a chance to respond to being charged with one count of murder with use of a deadly weapon in relation to the killing of Tupac Shakur in 1996.
The defendant’s lawyer, however, never showed up. As a result, Keefe D asked the judge for a two-week continuance, which means that his arraignment has been postponed.
Davis was taken into police custody on Friday morning (September 29), marking the first ever arrest in the investigation into ‘Pac’s murder, which has remained unsolved for 27 years.
The development comes a little over two months after police raided the home of the suspect’s wife. Las Vegas police said at the time that they were searching the house “as part of the ongoing Tupac Shakur homicide investigation.”
Various items were seized during the search, including computers, a cellphone and hard drive, as well as several .40-caliber bullets. It was later determined that those bullets didn’t match the shell casings from the murder scene.
Nevertheless, a police source said in August that detectives were building a compelling case against Davis and charges against the former gang member were “imminent.”
Davis, 60, has long claimed that he was inside the car from which the bullets that killed ‘Pac were fired. In a 2018 interview, he claimed that his nephew, Orlando “Baby Lane” Anderson, was one of two people sitting in the backseat of the car, the area from which the shots were let off.
2Pac was shot multiple times in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas on September 7, 1996. Six days later, he died in hospital from his injuries, cutting short the life of one of Hip Hop’s most influential figures.
So confused, so he did it? What took so long?
He told LV police that his dead nephew was the shooter. Proffer agreement kept him out of trouble for it
Pac’s family sure wants justice. This guy should 🤐
If 2Pac and Suge didn’t want the police to issue out justice to the shooters, why should we care? Also, all of these hypocrite hip hop fans who are saying Puffy should be locked up for soliciting the hit are the same fake fans who idolize gangsta rappers who rap about putting money on other rapper’s head. So why is Puffy receiving hate from these fraud hip hop fans? Puffy should be glorified for putting money on a rapper’s head, right? If Puffy solicited the hit, was that not a gangsta move?
Lol u have no idea if Tupac would want him in jail or not. Unless you can communicate with the dead, nobody knows how he would feel about it
TC, one of Pac’s closest friends said Pac didn’t want Keefe D locked up, did you read the article?
Again, Tupac’s dead. He has no idea what Pac would think, especially 3 decades later. Don’t you think Pac’s own brother knows him better than this guy? He said Pac would want justice. I would take his word over someone who’s not his sibling. But like I said, unless someone can communicate w/the dead nobody knows for sure . speculating on it is dumb
Exactly, 2Pac is dead, so we don’t know what he would have thought, so we have to go by his actions when he was alive. The LVPD cop who asked 2pac who shot him stated that 2Pac told him, “Fck You”. Again, if 2Pac and Suge wanted justice, they would have told the police who shot them. Also, I’m taking Napoleon’s words over Mopreme’s.
@TC seeing how angry and paranoid Pac was towards the end of his life, I’d assume he’d want him to be killed as retribution, considering the violent rhetoric Pac was pushing at that time. I’d doubt he want him in jail… he’d want worse for him. But if it was jail or nothing, I’d think he’d pick jail for him lol. As you said, we can’t know. It’s just speculation. But Pac was so angry at that time.
Napoleon isn’t fam. I been telling you he’s aleech D-Ridin Pac’s legacy. Him and any Outlaw that wasnt Fatal is a bum.
Who gives a doodle what Napoleon has to say about it? It’s just his opinion.
When your life is taken away from you your spirit desires justice.
Yeah… pac at that time would want him dead lol. This BS is like that leftist activist who was just stabbed to death in NYC by some ghetto dude, and the victims GF said “he wouldn’t want to villanize the killer because they lack resources”. Hmmm, lack resources, so you kill… and DON’T take a wallet? F off. Sick of ppl justifying murders. I’ve been dirt poor. Legit dirt poor. Never harmed another person in my pursuit of making my life better. Just worked very hard.
Take that Reich wingnutcake yakkety yak bs elsewhere.
@gem lord you got special needs bro? Jay was speaking the truth.
I’m sorry this n1554 just as dumb as dude that told on himself.
No, he would have wanted his homies to retaliate, being the true gangsters that you all claim to be in your lyrics – cough.
100% true, 2pac didn’t like disloyalty. The Outlaws didn’t even go looking for a fist fight with the dudes responsible for the murder of their boy and now Napoleon out here doing interviews for a cheque.
He must have forgot that 2pac fell out with Stretch due to his inactivity during the robbery attempt at Quad studios which ended up with him being shot and with Notorious BI.G as Badboy records were cool with the people that set up the robbery.
Because Suge and the Puris were handling the get-back
Pirus
Napoleon just be doing too much…
THEN WHY THE FUCK DID THEY GO PAST 20 YEARS OF THIS SHIT IF THEY DON’T GIVE A FUCK!? BUT THEY GIVE ALL THE FUCK IN THE WORLD WHEN IT WAS UNSOLVED FOR A QUARTERCENTURY!? HIPHOP IS RETARDED
Pac was smart he would expose Keefe D and embarras him publicly like he did with BIG. At the time, Pac was so big Warren G had a hard time getting to him which is a big name. The outlawz wouldn’t have time to get to Pac then retaliate. At this Time Pac was biggest name in Hip Hop
2Pac is overrated.
