In the world of hip-hop, few stories are as infamous and captivating as the rivalry between 2Pac and The Notorious B.I.G., which ultimately ended in tragedy with the deaths of both iconic rappers. As the world continues to delve into the details of these events, one man has emerged as a key source of information - Greg Kading.
Kading, a former LAPD detective, has gained notoriety for his involvement in the investigation into the murders of 2Pac and Biggie. In a recent interview with Cam Capone News, he sheds light on a couple of lingering questions surrounding these cases.
One question that has plagued fans is whether Orlando Anderson, Keefe D's nephew, was present at the scene when Biggie was killed. Kading reveals that an off-duty deputy sheriff, acting as a security guard, positively identified Anderson in a photo lineup as one of the individuals involved in the altercation that led to the shooting. However, Kading admits that there is a conflicting account from Keefe D, who denies Anderson's presence.
Another point of interest is the infamous urban legend of Puffy's friend being forced to drink urine. Kading dismisses this as an exaggeration, stating there was an assault involving Dr. Dre, 2Pac, and others interrogating a man named Mark Anthony Bell about the whereabouts of Puffy's family residence.
Kading also discusses the rumors of Puffy's alleged involvement in the plot to harm 2Pac and Suge Knight. According to Kading, Puffy first approached Keefe D after a show in Anaheim, soliciting his assistance in dealing with the ongoing feud. The second interaction occurred at Greenblats, where Puffy allegedly involved Keefe D in planning the attacks on 2Pac and Knight.
As the interview progresses, Kading reveals the mounting tensions between rival gangs and the reasoning behind the attacks. Suge Knight believed Mark Anthony Bell possessed information about Puffy's family's location. The heated environment following 2Pac's release from prison and the subsequent murder of Jake Robles in Atlanta only exacerbated the hostilities.
Kading also highlights the absence of concrete evidence regarding Biggie's knowledge of the plot. While rumors circulated, there is no proof that Biggie was involved in any way. In a surprising twist, Kading touches on 2Pac's discovery that Biggie and Puffy did not set him up, ultimately leading to him backing down from his initial response.
