Tupac shakur performs at Coachella through the magic of technology

Let me explain to you the definition of HOLOGRAM.

A three-dimensional image formed by the interference of light beams from a laser or other coherent light source.

A photograph of an interference pattern that, when suitably illuminated, produces a three-dimensional image.

It's tempting to say up front that Tupac Shakur stole the show on Sunday night when his likeness appeared alongside Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre to cap off the first weekend of Coachella, but that would just be for a cheap laugh. Making a "cameo" as a hologram projected onto the stage and the jumbo screens above. In case you ae wondering what the Outlaws have to say about coachella using Tupac's likeness - I picked up the link from them , and they are cool with it so far.

The first weekend of Coachella closed with a mega celebration of old school meets new school hip-hop as Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg hit the main stage together, with an unprecedented guest list. In addition to appearances from 50 Cent, Eminem, Wiz Khalifa and Kendrick Lamar, a Tupac Shakur hologram was live on stage. (Not the rumored Nate Dogg hologram we'd previously heard about). Needless to say , Tupac's appearance caused a wildfire on twitter --- check it out the performance was only last night - its still trending today . #Tupac

Update ; Last night, Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg closed out the three-day Coachella festival with a star-studded set that featured guest spots from Eminem, 50 Cent, Warren G, Wiz Khalifa, and more. But the one guest everyone is talking about has been dead for over 15 years: A hologram of Tupac Shakur performed "Hail Mary" solo, then was joined by Snoop for "2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted" before disintegrating in front of the massive, screaming crowd.

Waka Flocka Flame Partners with Suge Knight

Waka Flocka Flame has hooked up with Suge Knight for help expanding his brand. It dosent seem to bother him that one of the greatest rappers of all time saw Suge Knight relations as a good buisness move also. Lets hope he dosen't find out the hard way that if it walks like a duck it talks like a duck , it might be a snake.....uh huh.

Waka tells Complex

"You gotta really start pulling in people in the game who know the game. Suge is not the only one. I’ma start snatching in the real ones. Suge helped me get a good movie deal. Now I need to get on the TV screen. Ain’t nothing wrong with fuckin’ with some Gs. I fuck with Master P too. They’re just good for information, homie.

He’s helping me oversee the company. I’m not trying to be ‘Pac, I’m not trying to be Death Row. I’m Brick Squad Monopoly. My mother is still my manager. I ain’t changing shit. It is what it is. But it’s like having Jordan and Kobe. Why not play with both?” Well said and as far as Suge Knight , he has been very influential in a lot of careers, such as Keshia cole - for a hot second and Vanilla Ice . .#MESSAGE

Jimmy Henchman’s Brother Sentenced to prison for 12 Years

The brother of accused cocaine trafficker James “Jimmy Henchman” Rosemond received a 12-year prison sentence for running his own cocaine trafficking operation Wednesday (October 5).


Kesner Rosemond, 50, had already pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute cocaine.
Prosecutors say that in addition to helping his brother deal drugs in a separate operation, Kesner had set up a “side business” that competed with Jimmy’s. Kesner cut side deals with suppliers and came up with a plan to distribute his cocaine nationwide using fake Fed Ex accounts according to the New York Post.
He obtained the identities of people and their personal financial and biographical information from loan applications they had submitted to a New York car dealership.
Then Kesner Rosemond opened Federal Express accounts in their names, and later shipped drugs from Los Angeles to New York City using FedEx packages sent “in the names of these innocent individuals,” Kaminsky told the judge at a Brooklyn federal hearing last month.
The “seriousness” of this tactic is particularly disturbing, given that it “not only resulted in their being victims of identity theft, but also had the horrifying potential of exposing them to interrogation or arrest if a package shipped under an account bearing their personal information had been intercepted by law enforcement,” the prosecutor wrote in court documents.
During an August 2010 search of Kesner Rosemond’s home in Georgia, Drug Enforcement Administration agents found loan applications from the unnamed auto dealership in New York, prosecutors say.
His younger brother, hip-hop music promoter James “Jimmy Henchman” Rosemond, faces charges in New York that he used his music business as cover for his bi-coastal cocaine trafficking ring.
Federal prosecutors have indicted him on money laundering and obstruction of charges – as well as an additional charge that he ran a criminal enterprise while smuggling kilos of cocaine in music industry equipment packing cases from Los Angeles to New York.

Tupac shooter has more to say meanwhile jimmy Henchman get booked

MTV.ComIn the wake of the celebration of Tupac's birthday - remebering the slain mc /actor , there has been startling allegations about the day tupac was robbed at quad studios - going up to the now infamous spot to record with Lil Shawn ( who ?) . I'm sure to tupac it was just an ordinary day for him - getting calls about biz deals and apeareance concerts and studio time . That's how the story goes . If pac is dead - he is probably turning in his grave right now because this information should have came out when he was breathing and was able to hear it for himself. It is very disturbing that tupac did not know exactly who shot him - but it seems he had an idea of who the culprits were .
With the passing of geronimo pratt the slain rappers godfather - it is crazy timing indeed . You know Mj is trying to keep you updated - so let me direct you to some facts - a story given by

Instead of celebration, what would have been Tupac's 40th birthday has been marred by controversy as new allegations emerge about the November 1994 Quad Studios robbery and shooting of the rapper.




While fans celebrated 'Pac's life and legacy on Thursday (June 16), remembering the fallen icon with two trending topics on Twitter (#tupac and THUG LIFE), many of them were also debating the contents of a letter written by Dexter Isaac and posted to AllHipHop.com on Wednesday. In a note to the site, Isaac claimed to be the triggerman in the now-infamous robbery that left Shakur shot five times, two years before he was killed in a still-unsolved murder.









Moreover, Isaac (who is serving a life sentence for murder, robbery, fraud and witness intimidation), now charges that it was 'Pac's former associate, Jimmy "Henchman" Rosemond, who set the whole thing up, paying him $2,500 to do the job.

Rosemond's lawyer, Jeffrey Lichtman, fired back, refuting Isaac's story.


"It's a flat-out lie," he told the New York Daily News. "Dexter Isaac is not claiming this 17 years later to clear his conscience. He's doing it because he's told anybody who will listen he doesn't want to die in prison. He has kids and wants to work off his sentence. He can't be trusted."





Henchman and his defense team, however, are not buying it. On May 17, news broke that federal authorities issued an arrest warrant for Jimmy Henchman in connection with a drug case. Rosemond, who as head of Czar Entertainment has had ties to numerous rappers, believes that the government is using incarcerated informants to build a case against him. He attacked Isaac's credibility in a statement first issued to XXLMag.com. "If the government is relying on informants like Winston 'Winnie' Harris, a convicted drug dealer and Jamaican deportee, who came to me and motioned via hand signal that he was forced to wear a wire and begged me to skip town, or Dexter Isaac, who is serving life in prison plus 30 years, then I'm sure I will not be offered a fair trial."  as reported By Rob Markman of MTV.Com

Deep stuff ! As more is being released on this robbery happenings after the robbery - I have to say this is sending chills down my spine .

 I don't think any one suspected or ever thought that would be hearing the details of this scandal so soon . How ever this story unravels -  the finger pointer is saying that soon he will bring peice to Shakur and Biggie's families with more information and possibly the main people involved in their deaths . Puffy namely - ( now known as Aka Swag).

How this is all unfolding is very disturbing as it seems the rabbit hole falls deep .

lets get's get more aqainted with tupac for all of those who didnt get to meet him - He was and is still very intersting and he always kept it too real with the world - I fihured this viseo would be great - for an up an coming artist to hear- . Please pee out the climate and nature of the music biz when he was alive - and compare it to now - obviously it has changed , Later on - I will be doing an article on my blog about decling sales in black music . Nas' prediction and observation might have been kind of correct - is hip hop dead ?
