Jerry Heller, the former manager of N.W.A, recently revealed his belief that Suge Knight “unquestionably put the hit out” on Tupac Shakur.
“He absolutely did,” Jerry Heller says during an interview with SMASHD. “Unquestionably put the hit on him. Pulled Tupac in front of him, that’s how he got the glass in his head. You don’t think the cops could have solved this if they wanted to? I think Suge got what he deserved. Looks to me like he’s in jail for at least the foreseeable future.”
Tupac was shot September 7, 1996 in Las Vegas. He died on September 13.
Suge Knight is facing murder charges for a fatal hit-and-run in January that occurred near the set of Straight Outta Compton.
Jerry Heller also spoke on the possibility that Eazy-E contracted AIDS via acupuncture. Last month, former Ruthless Records rapper Frost made headlines after he put forth the viewpoint during an interview for the upcoming documentary, For The Record: The Story of Latinos in Hip Hop.
“At the end [in 1995], he did go for acupuncture,” Heller reveals. “One of his assistants, she took him to a Korean acupuncturist in Burbank—I don’t know for sure, but I think so. My doctor in Beverly Hills—I had gone to him for 30 years—he examined Eazy, and Eazy was not HIV positive in July of 1994. So, that sort of makes sense to me. It doesn’t always show up when the doctor does the test. I’ve heard of that happening.
“It doesn’t make any sense, right,” Heller later adds. “But I know Suge had something to do with it, just like he had to do with Tupac, and just like he did with Biggie. Because that’s the kind of snake he is.”
Elsewhere in the conversation, Jerry Heller spoke on being wrong regarding his decision to prevent Eazy-E from killing Suge Knight, something he previously spoke about earlier this year. Heller says had he let Eazy-E kill Knight, the rapper would likely still be alive today.
“Eazy said, ‘Suge Knight’s going to be a problem. I’m going to kill him,’” Heller says. “I said: ‘Let me just think this through, we have six employees, we’re doing $10 million a month, and you want to kill this guy Suge Knight because you think he’s going to be a problem? I don’t know, maybe I’m just not a wartime consigliere, but it don’t make no sense to me.’ The truth was, I should have let Eazy kill him. It’s not like anyone would have investigated it. Who do they put him in jail with? The guy that killed Tupac? Or the guy that killed Biggie? Or the guy that killed Eazy? Do they share a cell, or what? I should have let him do it. And probably, Eazy would still be around, and Ruthless would still be making great records.”

Seriously? Why is this theory that Suge had Tupac killed still a thing? Yes, because Suge told whoever was shooting to “make sure you don’t hit me even though I’ll be sitting in the line of fire.” No one, not even Sugar Bear, would risk his own life like that. It’s very simple: Pac beat up a member of the Crips. These Crips did what gangs do – they retaliate! They drive to Club 662 looking for Pac and Suge, see that the place is swarming with security and Bloods and double back around. At this time, they just so happen to spot Suge and Pac driving down Flamingo, windows open, talking to women and fans as they drive to 662. The Crips trail them for a while until they’re able to pull up and Baby Lane does the deed.
There was never a plan to kill Tupac in Vegas that night. If Trayvon Lane never told Pac that Baby Lane (no relation) was the one who stole the Death Row chain, Pac is alive today.
Jerry Heller hates Suge, so of course he wants to say this shit.
idk know if PAC would still be alive today but he would have survived that night in Vegas 100%
The Police Report states that the car pulled up at an angle that could have only hit Pac. The gun that killed Pac was traced back to Reggie Wright, head of Death Row security. Reggie Wright had all security get rid of their guns for that one night. The Bloods on the street know the real and tried to put a hit on Suge — who they call a traitor. Who had to gain from Pacs death? Only a fool would fail to see that Suge did this shit.
Was Eazy E Gay?
Doubt it, but all sources point that he was he was injected with aids. Probably after getting beaten by Suge Knight and his thugs they might have injected him with the aid virus.
I’ve seen and read a lot about the tupac murder. And it’s my opinion Suge Knight did it ! First look at the interview Suge did 1 week after Pacs death ! He’s says they were both laughing together and he said tupac told him he loved him. Recently a cop on the scene said Pac was struggling to speak and his last words were “Fuck You” and he lost consciousness after that when going into the ambulance and never recovered !
Also Suge recently got Shot ! And the person who shot him screamed in the night club You killed Tupac.
And if you watch the video of Suge in Vegas, What was Orlando Anderson doing there ??? He was just posted up waiting for tupac and Suge because Suge paid him to be there ! Just to set up tupac to hit him and then jump him so that could be used as an excuse for the drive by.
After the murder Orlando was paid by Suge to testify on his behalf because of his parole violation. He didn’t think there was a camera recording the whole incident !
But in the end Karma is great because he went to jail last time for being on camera exposing who he really is and now he killed someone and it was all Recorded AGAIN!!!!! And this time he’ll probably rott in jail FOREVER !
The biggest proof anyone needs to know who killed Tupac ! Is the interview he did one week after Pacs death. He lied A lot ! And he left Tupac broke and tupac never really owned anything ! Everything was under Suge Knights name ! Tupacs mother had to sue Suge to get the masters and money that was owed to her son.
Always thought Suge killed Pac
Although crip retaliation is just as, if not more, likely
Wow

Interesting read. But let’s not forget how much Jerry Heller hates Suge?
We all wish we knew who killed Tupac and I still do have a feeling Suge could of been a part of it, but I’ll never know. Suge was a snake and a man with enough money and power at the time to make people carry out hits on those he doesn’t like. And if he is responsible for any deaths to music legends such as Tupac and Eazy then Karma came back and got him.. Bankrupcy and hopefully a long prison sentence for a hit and run.
Music would of been a better place if he and his bloody gang was never around, Dre did the best thing for getting away from the Death Row record label and starting the Aftermath.
I do wish what Jerry said is true, but it’s just an allegation from one man that hates the other.
If Suge did get someone to infect Eazy with AIDS, then I hope what goes around comes back around.. Cause that’s not how men should settle things.
Hopefully some truth will come out some day about any of the artists mentioned above, but I very much doubt we’ll ever know the real stories of these tragic deaths. May there music carry on and there souls rest in eternal peace.
Money that was owed to 2pac ? Didnt Suge bail 2pac outta jail and payed 1.5 million ? As for Suge putting a hit on 2pac I don’t and never bought it. 2pac Never died.. He just left us All behind.. Why tha fuck you think he renamed himself Makaveli ? Its plain to see. If your life was in danger wtf would you do ? Nobody wants to die, even if we have to sacrifice FAME. M
He died. Get over it.
Suge owed at least 3 million in royalties.
I don’t think Pac was afraid to die. He was a pitbull. Shoots two cops. Gets shot five times. Disses rappers and snakes like Jimmy Henchman and Haitian Jack. He knew the risks. “I’ll be a legend… Breathin’ or dead.”
However, if Pac did fake his death, it would be to avoid prison, in my opinion… And fortune and fame.
“If they think I’m going back to jail, they really on their dope.” “They’ll see me in hell before they see me in general.” Etc.
Edit: “They’ll see me in hell before they put me in a cell.”
His death has made him a legend, and his influence across the world has multiplied ten-fold because of his death. He knew that would be the case.
But come on. Let the man rest in peace.
And Mr. Heller- When Suge’s goons find you, you better hope it goes quick.
Really we should never listen to a racist piece of crap like
Jerry Heller we all know what this blood sucking leech was about
Really! With him in the car!
You cant aim a gun from 4 ft away. There was a picture taken right before the shooting of them two in the car and you can tell tupac looked scared. Suge told tupac to take off his bullet proof vest in the Tyson fight cuz it was too hot. They left and Pac gets shot 5times in the chest with no vest on.
No way dude. Pacwas making money for the nigha like crazy. Unless he got word that Pac wanted to leave death row
im sure he did.. u know niggas. and suge knew that if anything happened to pac while he was on the label hed reap all the benefits
yes pac was about to leave … ita well publicised
1 snake talking about another
You say Suge killed Eazy and you better make sure Suge don’t find you. You say Jerry killed Eazy and you will be sued….so I’ll keep all thoughts to my penniless self.
nah if someone was to kill another person then why would they be in the same car as that person on the night of the shooting? in jerrys words, that doesnt make no sense to me….
That doesn’t make sense. Tupac was leaving death row and starting Makaveli records. Suge had no artist’s left and he would make millions off all the albums released after his death. Luckily ms shakur got the money from album sales.
If he says suge killed tupac to keep his money…. It leaves me to believe that jerry killed eazy e to keep the money. Jerry was speaking from a snakes mindframe point of view. In my opinion
Nice one.. Really like that!!
what a great point
suge wanted dre out of eazy es ruthless contract… jerry had nothing to gain with eaazy dead… suge had everything to gain
6 employees, $10 million a month. Damn! What an operation!!!
Man are we still talking bout this ? This is a dead issue !! No pun intended ..
This is not a dead issue you dumb nigga. Obviously you aren’t real like Tupac warned us about. Go back to your fake ass white suburban house with your wasp family.
Dumb n1gger?
The way it happened after shots fired, clearly proves how planned it was. Let’s begin with targeted area of each shot. Angle positioning of both vehicles. Not one single bullet hit anything else then the passenger door. Add it all up,Suge bad no risk of getting hit at all. If Tupac wore the vest he had on all day. He would clearly b alive.
Most drive bys usually have shots fired towards victims head. Especially if in all likelihood, target wore a vest. What are the odds,shooter guessed right on Tupac without a vest? Hum? The fact this is still a mystery, baffles me. Even without the motives (which itself is reason enough) the facts are overwhelming to easily eliminate any doubt. My best guess is,so many people on both sides of the law,heavily involved in this conspiracy. Almost impossible to even attempt reoppening this case. Unfortunately it’s happened many times before and many times ahead
Better yet, could anyone explain to me, how in hell does a random car positions itself to fire off few rounds at a car door. With tupacs security car right behind, almost in arms reach of both Tupac and shooters cars? “Talk about bad luck. Only minutes before, Suge had ordered security to be unarmed? The luck, the shootes had because of it? Especially placing themselves an easy target of retaliation.
The way Suge helped destroy evidence, like fleeing scene. Thus allowing for easier getaway by shooters. To being way more helpful towards killers then his buddy’s defense. With the so-called sad attempt of investigation. Anyone wondering what, why or when does the police-civilian conspiracy battles continue. It has a lot to do with both sides unable to forget until the time comes when it can be forgiven.
In the end, there’s no such thing as a cold case. Especially when involves someone like Tupac.
lol. Time to let morons trout out their theories. To me, it’s obvious. God killed Tupac and Biggie because rap sucks balls.
Tupac wasn’t leaving death row he was starting his own record label under death row look at it like a tree, death row is owned by interscope same as shady records being under aftermath which is owned by universal. Basically tupac and suge were branching out. Suge didn’t kill pac for money!!! Pacs mom would’ve got everything and if that was the case afeni would’ve been gone long ago.
