Billy Garland, Tupac Shakur's biological father, questioned the current management of Tupac's estate, raising concerns about it being run by Tom Whalley, a White man. Afeni had designated Whalley, a co-founder of Interscope Records, in her will to manage the estate. This decision has faced criticism from Tupac's family, including a lawsuit from his sister who accused Whalley of misappropriating funds.
Billy Garland expressed frustration, noting a discrepancy between the estate's management and Tupac's legacy. He criticized decisions such as a car commercial featuring the late rapper and claimed that Whalley is not providing the family with fair financial support. Garland questioned the authenticity of documents supporting Whalley’s management, suggesting they mysteriously appeared after Afeni's death. Despite these tensions, Vlad noted that many benefited financially from Tupac's legacy, but Garland argued it doesn’t compensate for the perceived mismanagement.
