Immigrants are Given Higher Socio-Political Status Than American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS) in America
October 23, 2022.
Updated January 7, 2024.
America encourages colonized “Blacks” from around the world to immigrate and help disrupt the lives of American Descendants of Slavery’s lives. Foreign countries never provide full citizenship to immigrants, yet America appears to do it. The U.S. uses immigrants to help main colonialism and socio-economic slavery. No one could go to Jamaica, Haiti, nor any other Caribbean or African nation and disrespect the indigenous people of those nations like foreigners are allowed and encouraged to disrespect American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS)/ Foundational Black Americans (FBA) in America. Louis Farrakhan (Jamaican), Marcus Garvey (Jamaican) Kwame Ture (Trinidad) and the many other “leaders” with international (immigrant) backgrounds were never qualified to lead American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS). The voids they supposedly filled proved how far Negroes had fallen by the 1960s, and law enforcement agencies were are part of the plot to destroy Black American communities. The traditional “Negro” leader is a colonized cooperator by design. Any leader that American and European leadership/ government administrators does not approve will be historically assassinated. The Negro leaders that are approved will be allowed to intentionally lead “Black Americans” in the wrong direction. That is what we see when we observe the leadership direction of men like Louis Farrakhan, Marcus Garvey, et cetera, and the domestic Negroes that are accepted leaders in America.
Anyone who immigrates to America is supposed to bring the best that they have to offer. There are forces within America that began to encourage and reward backwardness. In 2022, many of the entertainers who are encourages to contribute are immigrants bringing degeneracy to American mainstream culture. When Negroes were more focused prior to the 1980s, they demanded respect. Also, they did not allow prostitutes, other sex trade workers (strippers), or criminals to completely influence Black American society in popular media. Currently, anyone and everyone is allowed to bring their degenerate version of “Blackness” to Black America. These are the reasons why little progress is being made in America. Degenerate behavior is being promoted to the masses and very few people are authentic enough to speak out against it. Additionally, those who control mainstream media in America are weaponizing media against America.
The book, They Killed Notorious B.I.G. is a testament to the fact that foreign “Blacks” were allowed to rob and ambush Tupac Shakur without a major statement being issued nationally dictating what foreign “Black” behavior had to be. No foreign country would allowed what American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS) allowed to happen in America. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) admitted its role in destroying Black leaders. We have to question how much foreign “Blacks” were allowed to destroy New York City, as an ongoing plot to regulate Black communities nationally. There should have been a ideological war put in place after foreign “Blacks” played a part in Tupac Shakur being ambushed and robbed in NYC. Whether they were involved or not, their ability to destroy America should have been regulated and addressed formally. Not enough was said, and very little is said still today. American Descendants of Slavery do not control the Black community in America. Caribbean people have become proxies of colonization. Where is a nation headed with presidential candidates are looking to talk to a rapper named Cardi B (foreign descent) about “public policy”? Negroes allowed it to happen, because they did not rise up against that stupidity. Colonized fools allow constant foolishness to happen in America.

The True Inventors of Hip Hop and American Culture
September 7, 2022
Updated October 21, 2022
(The information in this blog is limited, only because it is not using the same number of formal references that are found in the actual book, They Killed Notorious B.I.G. We encourage you to look up whatever we mention here and do some additional research to confirm the accuracy of our information. There may be some minor typographical errors in this blog, because we have not scrutinized these pages like we do for our published books. The bottom line is that this book and blog both say something no one ever said before. Facts count, and opinions do not. Now, NYC will be talking about the subject matter). Topics covered in Slight Sleep Media’s book They Killed Notorious B.I.G. by Sayeed Benin are going to be re-visited in a new Hip Hop documentary that is in the works. New York City has always been familiar with the way different nationalities interact with each other in NYC. Some of those interactions are good, and some are bad. There has been a renewed interest in NYC’s ADOS/ FBA history because of comments made by second-generation immigrant rappers Fat Joe and Busta Rhymes. Fat Joe said both Puerto-Ricans and “Blacks” created Hip Hop 50/50. Additionally, Busta Rhymes said America does not have its own culture and everything it has comes from somewhere else. The Blues, Jazz, and Rock ‘n Roll, just to name a few, are completely American ADOS/ FBA creations. Not much stock should be taken from what entertainers say, because they are not known for their academic expertise. Respectfully speaking, Busta Rhymes and Fat Joe probably never graduated from high school. They are famous for dancing and entertaining people. With a lot of older entertainers, they have learned that making outlandish comments helps bring attention to their failing careers, since their music is no longer a current topic of discussion in the mainstream media.
Filmmaker Tariq Nasheed who created the Hidden Colors DVD series is in pre-production for a new documentary about the “Black American” origins of Hip Hop culture. The initial movement, American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS) was founded around 2016 and refers “Black Americans” of non-immigrant origin. Nasheed called his own movement Foundational Black American (FBA), which is the same as ADOS, but had some slight ideological differences from the administrators of ADOS. The problem with the word “Black” is that anyone with dark skin can generically claim any benefit that was secured in America by ADOS/ FBA people. Any Haitian, Jamaican, or African can proclaim that they are “Black” in America, and receive advantages that ADOS/ fought for in America over the centuries. For those who were not a part of the early process, a scavenger mentality comes from the way colonizers have wholesale stolen and sold labor, land, and other resources from ADOS/ FBA since the inception of America. ADOS/ FBA and their ancestors established innovations in every area of culture, thus creating something unheard of with their own blood, sweat, and tears.
Random foreign “Blacks” regularly step from boats, planes, or trains and claim their “Blackness” perks, because benefits mean that ADOS/ FBA can be claimed in America whenever convenient. In many cases, immigrants are welcome to do so, but the arrogance and greed that comes with their claims is finally being addressed correctly. The issue is the fact that immigrants choose to align with Caucasian-Americans and act as voluntary buffers between ADOS/ FBA and (Caucasian) U.S. domestic policies. Immigrants are the token symbols for the mantra that hard work overcomes any obstacle in America. While that is true in theory, America has specific policies that attack ADOS/ FBA, whenever they begin to succeed beyond America’s allowance. The destruction of Black Wall Street is one example. Hip Hop is a more recent example of this being true. When Hip Hop was outside of the music industry’s control, it was formally ignored. When (Rap) record sales began to regularly outsell major label musicians, Hip Hop was co-opted and commandeered by the mainstream music industry. Many Hip Hop artists sold out and experienced the same fate other ADOS/ FBA musicians experienced. America does not have to co-opt most immigrant groups because they are not known for major innovations in America like ADOS/ FBA are. Immigrants come to America to secure opportunities that do not exist in their struggling nations. The immigrant population thinks America is thriving, because it is doing better than their home nations. America is failing, because everyone is living from past resources.
Immigrants are known to quietly claim benefits, while smiling with Caucasians and bowing as low as possible to their demands. They are glad to be in America, and are happy abandoning their own lands for opportunities in America. ADOS/ FBA is known for not fleeing, while others come to copy ADOS/ FBA inventiveness. America has been stagnant for a long time, because immigrants have fully accepted their roles as interference, getting in the way of the genius of ADOS/ FBA. Caucasians control the interference, thinking America could keep living off the ADOS/ FBA inventions of the past. Negroes have been convinced to be niggardly, instead of continuing their true culture of leadership and innovation. Some are naturally niggardly, and are selected for their natural stupidity. Look at the current crop of rappers of foreign descent (i.e. Cardi B, Nikki Minaj) and the negativity they have represented in their music over the years. They were chosen, because they could be counted on to negatively affect progress.
Every country around the world protect their culture and financial resources carefully by not letting others strategically claim credit and benefits for something they do not deserve. Everyone thinks they can come to America and do whatever they can get away with, which is why Fat Joe and Busta Rhymes speak negatively against ADOS/ FBA. America has been made too comfortable for outsiders who speak before learning the facts about what they say. Anyone who looks “Black” can claim provisions that come from the Civil Rights Act of 1964: benefits that were actually meant for ADOS/ FBA. Immigrants and their descendants do not know or care about ADOS/ FBA reparations that are owed and have been taught that ADOS/ FBA are lazy and want something for nothing. Descendants of Jewish Holocaust victims have recently been rewarded financial payments for what Germany and other nations did to them during WWII. ADOS is not only focused on past funds, but are telling others to stay out of those issues while in America. Too many immigrants come to America and offer their opinions on ADOS business, but would question anyone who goes to their underdeveloped country and indulges in their affairs. ADOS/ FBA is in a continued journey to be paid for their work. America is built on ADOS/ FBA labor, which is a fact.
Anyone who has been in New York City since the early 1970s knows the difference between non-ADOS/ FBA people and ADOS/ FBA people. The main idea of Slight Sleep Media’s book by Sayeed Benin titled They Killed Notorious B.I.G. explains how non-ADOS/ FBA people were often allowed to terrorize New York City unchecked in the early 1990s. How? By a certain point in time, second generation Caribbean “Blacks” were able to assimilate into American culture and travel under the banner of “Black,” when convenient. The most high-profile example what the ambush and robbery of Tupac Shakur in New York City on November 30, 1994. The “Black” people in the music industry and those connected to the criminal underworld knew exactly what happened to Tupac Shakur, but no formal statement was ever made condemning the fact that non-ADOS/ FBA people were allowed to allegedly extort and exploit New York City in ways a second generation American Descendants of Slavery/ Foundational Black American could never do in Haiti, Jamaica, or any other country in the world. Now that Nasheed is making this documentary, it puts the spotlight on what ADOS/ FBA New Yorkers are not talking doing. Now they are waking up. ADOS/ FBA New Yorkers do not control NYC anymore, since stewardship was given to immigrants by those who control business and industry. Caribbean “Blacks” are allowed to run NYC’s non-Caucasian culture.
The list of Hip Hop artists of Caribbean descent is extensive and provides a glimpse of why ADOS/ FBA regulation diminished by the early 1990s. These artists performed as American artists with American accents, but are able to speak in their parents tongue if that is how their parents spoke in their households. Some Hip Hop artists from the past with Caribbean roots are Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace, LL Cool Jay, DJ Red Alert, Irv Gotti, Steve Stoute, KRS-One, Just-Ice, Heavy D, Pete Rock, Foxy Brown, Kid (of Kid ‘n Play), Busta Rhymes, DJ Clue, Tony Yayo, Sha XL, DJ Whoo Kid (Yayo, Sha, and Whoo Kid are all G-Unit members), Wyclef Jean and Pras (of the Fugees), Pop Smoke, and a long list of others. More importantly, many people with international origins have a different worldview than ADOS/ FBA people, which gives them their own specific identity. People often say they are “Black,” but in America it means something rooted in ADOS/ FBA’s specific identity.
New York City is the exception to the rule, because it is historically an international city. Different nationalities have their own communities in New York City, but they can also assimilate culturally and linguistically when necessary. People are speaking out about ADOS/ FBA’s cultural contributions in NYC. ADOS/ FBA are finally realizing that by being so passive, they are allowed regressive characteristics to change NYC’s progressive nature. It is evident that NYC’s shift in power led to more regulation and less financial expansion. For example, DJ Funkmaster Flex (second generation Jamaican-American) has been the lead show host on WQHT’s Hot 97 FM in New York City. Nothing innovative is happening there, because they play the same songs everywhere else across the country plays. The only constant in the situation is that Funkmaster Flex has been able to keep his job, meaning he continues to do what the radio station needs him to do.
The day of reckoning has arrived for New York City in the way ADOS/ FBA have been shut out of Hip Hop on a business level. Some can argue the creators of Hip Hop culture were young and did not understand business. Still, there were primary figures involved in Hip Hop who understood the socio-political magnitude of what was happening. Where the Civil Rights Movements and the Black Power Movement failed, Hip Hop culture had the opportunity to funnel some of its revue into the communities where it was created. That never happened, ad the reigns of Hip Hop culture ended up in the hands of non-ADOS/ FBA people. Now it is being talked about, but should have never gotten to this point.

(documented proof and other citations can be found in the book, They Killed Notorious B.I.G.)
New York City has fallen off in many ways, because they are following the lead of many Caribbean, Africans, and people from other cities around the U.S.A. Although NYC is an international city, the powers that be began to allow backwardness to control NYC, in order to control the city better. Even when it is going backwards, NYC is better than the countries that others come from. In the end, NYC has still fallen and it will fall further, until something is done. We took action here by explaining what happened, beginning with the people who ambushed and shot Tupac Shakur on November 30, 1994. By 1991, New York City’s “urban community” began to change. Culturally, male American Descendants of Slavery lean toward militancy, in terms of speaking their minds and being aware of what it means to be “Black.” As the number of immigrants began to grow on the East Coast, namely NYC, standards began to chance. For example, even though people might not be muslims, most “Black” people knew how to respond when they were greeted with “As Salam Alaikum: (answer) Wa Alaikum Salam.” Everyone knew because of the influence Malcolm X and Muhammad Ali had on New York City. “Black” non-muslims still knew to reject eating pork. As the early 1990s progressed, Foundational Black Americans in NYC began to turn their backs on intelligence, knowledge, and insight. Negativity was always a part of NYC, but intelligence supeceeded ignorance, which was the difference between NYD and many other cities. In other words, Niggerism did not rule NYC’s “Black” people like it did in other cities. Although most Caribbean people are highly intelligent, they were often non-muslim and upheld the morals and values that Caucasians used as standards of conduct.
When Tupac Shakur was robbed and ambushed at Quad Recording Studios on November 30, 1994, that event marked the way NYC had changed. The exact way it changed depends on who had Tupac ambushed. It Caribbean people had it done, like is claimed, that meant many different things. It meant a Caribbean person could have something hand, it signaled other things, and questioned who the conspirators actually were. Some say they had cooperative tendencies with law enforcement agencies. Obviously, they did not care about the significance of the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense. Look at what we now know about the assassination of Malcolm X. People were saying the same thing about who was involved in 1964 ( the alleged conspiracy involving the FBI and the NYPD). The influx of criminals from the Caribbean showed that they were not as smart as they thought they were. All “Americans” are stupid, if you ask many people from around the world. It is a love-hate relationship, because they see the achievements, but many Caribbean people, et cetera learn to resent American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS). They fail to realize that that is a trick being place those who are responsible for “allowing” (USCIS/ U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services).
No one in the United States every made a declaration that people from other countries are not allowed to indiscriminately bring harm to American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS). At one time it was known, but Tupac Shakur’s ambush and robbery showed that NYC was not going to say anything significant at the formal level. Making a statement would have displayed a level of global consciousness. When we look more than twenty-five years after Tupac Shakur’s ambush and robbery in NYC, we regularly see Caribbean and African people playing the roles of ADOS films and in real life. American Blacks follow a Caribbean leader (Louis Farrakhan). Malcolm was half-Caribbean. Malcolm’s mother was from Grenada. Latinos have surpassed the population of American Descendants of Slavery in America, and very few American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS) speak the truth in the mainstream media, when they are given the opportunity. That is why this book, They Killed Notorious B.I.G. by Sayeed Benin is so significant. This book speaks to the downfall of the other-worldly level of intelligence that NYC Black Americans were known for. Now, NYC American Descendants of Slavery are following the trends that have been set by outsiders.
Many Americans underestimate the intelligence of immigrants, just because they might speak broken English upon arrival. Intelligence and aptitude are universal and may be located anywhere in the world. There are a lot of people with international backgrounds who are as principled as anyone in America could ever wish for. There are a lot of international people with the highest morals, ethics, and principles known to man. These individuals are thorough and solid in any situation. Unfortunately, others are weak and succumb to the pressures of situations that they did not foresee. There are a number of people who are associated with the Quad Recording Studios ambush and robbery of Tupac Shakur on November 30, 1994 that have questionable backgrounds. The criminal underworld knows what these people have done in the past and the people they cooperated against and NYC has let the findings be known. Not the common accusations Tupac made about people, but the real situations where “things” were told. The further someone looks into some people’s background, the more they will find. People make a major mistake by saying Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace was the “King of New York” in a literal sense. Notorious B.I.G. was the lyrical king. On a street level, B.I.G. knew that Tupac was going to be in trouble with crime figures that he associated with. The whole city knew, and others mentioned it. Tupac Shakur was not paying attention to the way experienced people moved around the city. B.I.G. said he warned Tupac, and that is highly likely. The criminal underworld knew exactly how that situation was going to unfold and they just watched it happen. Because Tupac Shakur was ADOS (American Descendants of Slavery, something should have been said to NYC and the Caribbean community to give his a pass and pardon Tupac for not knowing how to move in NYC. People from different boroughs have to know what they are doing when they conduct business in different areas, so there is no way a “yankee” could be interacting with people from the Caribbean, talking reckless, and not be aware of what might happen.
The U.S.A. is the only place on earth where immigrants and second generation immigrants think they are smarter than (Black) people who have been in America for centuries. America is the only place a small number of immigrants can come and destroy entire communities. No one realized that they were allowed to do it by America, as long as they kept the negativity in Negro communities. Isn’t that what happened? Did anyone stop it? Crack cocaine destroyed inner-cities the same way. Anyone who witnessed that era will tell you that law enforcement wasn’t doing much about it. Then police claimed they were afraid of the automatic weapons. One phone call or executive order could have had the help necessary instantly. The transporters of the drugs were easy to catch in America, if that way the objective. Crack sellers often portray themselves as geniuses who were two-steps ahead of law enforcement agencies at all times. A blind man could see that something bigger was behind the crack era, and Negroes were willing participants. When they get caught or exposed, they want to blame the CIA, like how an informant would do. The disrespect immigrants are taught by Caucasian colonizers proves that slave mentalities are on all sides of the “Black” spectrum. What will be said in the future, when it comes to the knowledge of the U.S. and the people who have been here for centuries? The statement must include the fact that respect must be shown to ADOS, because they are sleeping giants who shall awaken one day. Some of them are already wide awake.
Tupac Shakur sealed his own fate because he did not understand the politics of Caribbean people in America. By 1990, Caribbean people had placed themselves in positions of power within the music industry. Some of that positioning was due to them being tokens who were ready to place subservient roles to the people who were in charge of the music industry and in charge of New York City. The problem was the fact that Tupac Shakur did not know any of this, so he placed Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace in harm’s way. B.I.G. was Caribbean descent, but he said he tried to talk to Tupac about the people who were around Tupac. The problem for NYC is the fact that everyone knows who “these people” are, and never said anything about robbing the child of a revolutionary. The people who allegedly did it were Caribbean descent and they did not know the significance of who Tupac was. The Shakur legacy was bigger than a little boy growing up to be a recording artist and actor. This was about the soul of NYC.
New York City’s thorough ADOS people could have crushed the people who harmed Tupac, but it was deeper than that. Tupac Shakur brought a lot of negativity on himself by publicly being too casual about certain things. NYC can stomp out any criminal activity almost instantly, but they allowed certain Caribbean factors to do what they were doing. They still do, because Caribbean people are too smart to being doing dumb stuff, which is why they eventually get caught. Then they are ready to cooperate. When an immigrant cooperates, it is federal in nature, because of that individual’s relationship with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Not everyone from the Caribbean cooperates in America, but more cooperate that one would realize. Just like how more “Americans” cooperate behind the scenes. For immigrants, they can be informants easily, knowing that they are not cooperating against their own people. Everyone appears to be “Black,” where in reality they are Africans or Caribbeans. They are not the average cooperators and informants. They are “international espionage agents.” Tupac Shakur did not know what it really is, even though the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense specialized in knowing international politics. He failed to realize that all “Black” people are not on the same side, nor do they all have the same agenda.
People did not say much, because the smart people know that international people are often chosen because they are be pressured in ways that Black Americans can not. There is a late Jewish gangster who was threatened by law enforcement by them saying his mother would face charges. He said, ‘She will have to handle that on her own. I’m not cooperating.’ Most people have told, and now we see more cooperation than ever, based on other forms of talking. Doing interviews about crime is a form of cooperating. Back to the point though. It isn’t that American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS) were run over by Caribbean gangsters. Caribbean crime figures were allowed to do certain things, because they were helping destroy the ADOS in America. In the same vein, Southern backwards rap music and stripper culture was allowed to overrun NYC Hip Hop music. Look at the main figures of Rap music. They are not “Black,” yet they look like American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS). Drake, Nikki Minaj, Cardi B. They are all something else (mixed race, Caribbean, et cetera), so destroying America was not something they would refuse to do if the price was right. And that is what they did. They all sold sex and dysfunction, and the saga continues.
Caribbean culture is so strong that no American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS) in NYC have set the record straight about the ambush and robbery of Tupac Shakur at Quad Recording Studios from a nationality point of view. In no other country in the world could minority “Black” groups come to America and terrorize “Black” communities. Two reasons stand out why it was allowed to happen. One, the “Negro” was cultivated to be ignorant by the mid-1990s. Two, law enforcement allowed Caribbean people to do things with police protection. If ADOS had begun to eliminate Non-American Descendants of Slavery for destroying the community, law enforcement would have stepped in and stopped it. It happened already, because crack dealers were allowed to destroy their own communities ten years earlier, and no one did anything about it. By 1990, Caribbean people already had the formula to destroy American Descendants of Slavery. They blended in and pushed their own agenda. That is what they were supposed to do, unless they were on the side of truth. They were on the side of colonizers and sell-outs. The American Negro was on the side of fear and ignorance. They did not know what to do. Now, whatever price was paid to promote ignorance was clearly too low. The price of future generations was too much to pay, because Caribbean, African, and American Descendants of Slavery children are ignorant of the global politics that they are supposed to know.

The Exodus
August 12, 2022
“Black Americans” came to New York City from the south from the 1910s to the 1970s. It is said that six million Black people (American Descendants of Slavery) migrated north. This number does not include people of Caribbean and African descent, who came in increasing numbers after the Immigration Act of 1965. New York City was dominated by American Descendants of Slavery who had migrated from the southern U.S. High numbers of “Blacks” came to New York City, which is why Harlem was considered the center of “Black” America. By the late 1980s, the landscape of New York City had changed, because of then number of second generation Caribbean and Africans who assimilated into American culture. Some people migrated to New York at a very young age, and were almost indistinguishable from people who were American. They had two sides: they were Caribbean or African at home, but knew how to code switch and reflect complete assimilation into U.S. culture. They sounded and dressed like New Yorkers. Tupac Shakur made the mistake of not knowing the difference between someone who was American and someone who is the offspring of immigrants. He did not take the politics of each nation seriously enough. Each nationality has characteristics that he did not know enough about. All “Black” people are not the same, and that is an error that caused him a lot of confusion.
Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace bore no responsibility is telling Tupac Shakur how he was ambushed. The 1980s introduced people into the criminal underworld who should have never been involved with anyone who knew about street culture. Correction: most people who thought they knew about street culture were are product of the Crack Era, which is completely different. Notorious B.I.G. was the King of New York City’s lyricists, from the underground to the mainstream. The artists who could be found rhyming in dirty basement clubs respected Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace’s lyrical skill the same way major record executives respected his music. B.I.G. had merged purist lyricism with commercial appeal. Tupac had done something similar and laid out a path for B.I.G. to follow, but B.I.G. had done it differently. Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace had kept that New York affinity to East Coast lyricism in his music, and was still able to reach wider audiences.
It is better to avoid trouble, than to address a problem after the fact. Christopher Wallace said he warned Tupac to watch who he was around and how he conducted himself. That warning did not have to be aimed an anyone specific. The streets of New York City were dangerous for those who were making legal money, yet still associating with certain elements of New York City. The 1980s blurred the lines of what it meant to be street savvy. People thought that they were intelligent, just because they were making money. Money and intelligence can be the same, but they might also be different. New York City is not like any other place, when it comes to politics and the code of the street. New York had a different ethnic connection. Not all Caribbean people interact with each other, so that wasn’t the reason why people where once with Tupac were talking to people he considered “enemies.” Because of the money and power involved, Tupac Shakur should have been conducting himself differently. There was a lot going on, and he was smart enough to have avoided everything that happened. Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace was in a similar situation. He was a “break out” success and no one would have imagined that he was going to become the most powerful “Black” artist on the East Coast. That is what was about to happen.

New York City Lost Its Intellectual Edge
July 12, 2022
Updated July 21, 2022
New York intellectually collapsed around 1990. With the introduction to the Luke (Campbell of the Two Live Crew) dancers and their stage show in New York City, something changed. It seemed like from that point forward, intellect took an intellectual step backward. Next, New York males were promoting West Coast gangs and being laughed at for doing so. Around 1995, New York City radio stations began to promote negative rap music more than ever. By 1999, New York artists began to mimic infallible the styles of other regions of the country.
______________________________________
The Poverty That Americans Do Not Understand
A lot of international people call “Americans” lazy. There are plenty of lazy people back home in every immigrants country or origin. The resentment between Americans and immigrants runs deep. At the same time, intelligent people from all over the world recognize and respect each other, no matter where they are from.
People born in America sometimes complain about the conditions of the U.S. without knowing how fortunate we truly are. When people immigrate from the Caribbean and from Africa, they know what poverty truly is. If they are second generation immigrants, their parents tell them how fortunate they are to be in America. During the 1990s in New York City, the Caribbean population in New York City had grown to the point where they had a certain amount of unified power. American Descendants of Slavery in NYC had been surpassed in their ability to regulate who had power in NYC. Everyone knew about the power Jamaicans had attained. Rumor has it that Jamaicans introduced crack cocaine to Brooklyn. The point is, there was a time when New Yorkers decided which out-of-towners could make money in the criminal underworld. Caribbean people knew something that Americans did not know. Non-Americans do not realize how much better U.S. prisons are than other jail conditions around the world. In fact, many people in U.S. inner-cities come from worse living conditions that prisons in their own cities and home states. Donald Trump called many countries “sh#t hole” countries and people from those countries know exactly what he meant. There was countries where raw sewerage is floating down the street. Yes, the downtown areas might look good, but there are places that make the worse American slum look like luxury condominiums. Yet everyone brags about how they were royalty (Africans) and princes in their home country. Prince of what? A pile of dirt?
The level of intelligence of people from inner-cities throughout the U.S. has decreased. Being ignorant is promoted and encouraged by mainstream media. Look at the stereotypes that are launched at people in America through mainstream media. For example, look at the amount of comedy shows and films that mock “culturally aware/ conscious/ woke” people. Tupac Shakur was smart enough to dumb down his intelligence so he could built power. Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace (a second generation Jamaican-American) recognized the intelligent moves Tupac was making in the music industry. The greatest factor about New York City is the way international people (i.e. Africans, Caribbeans, et cetera) respect intelligence. At the same time, they resent ignorance, and the level of ignorance that Tupac Shakur began to display made people resent him, especially Caribbeans that were beginning to exhibit control over New York City. At the same time, they despise “ignorant” Americans. Second-generation Caribbeans had grown up in America and began to participate in the criminal underworld. Naturally, they began to be involved in physical altercations with American Descendants of Slavery/ a/k/a “Black Americans.” This is the point. No one can go to Jamaica or Haiti as a second generation American and do what “foreigners” are allowed to do in America. That goes from the government on down to the everyday commoner’s life.
New York City knew that they could control the “Black” community remotely if they brought in enough people from the Caribbean and African nations. It was not a part of the initial plan, but as it began to work, the method was embraced. The Nation magazine published an article on June 6, 2006 titled, “Sheffield Strikes Out on Latino Players by Dave Zinn. Mr. Zinn asked, “Have Major League owners shown a preference for developing Latin American talent? Absolutely. Every club has a Latin American scouting department. Teams plow millions of dollars into baseball academies south of the border. They don’t do it because Latino players are docile sheep. They do it because the young of Latin America live in dire poverty and they can sign 15-year olds for $2,000.” Zinn is sadly mistaken, because someone will become compliant when one $1 U.S. dollar is equal to upwards of 500X more than the currency of any given developing country. No, they are not docile, but U.S. dollars makes people docile, and some of them do not even know the process is occurring.
Tupac Shakur had no idea what he was up against by not knowing the politics of everyone he was spending time with. Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace was different because him and some of his Caribbean friends made the mistake of adopting “Niggerism” as a culture. Notorious B.I.G. was so intelligent that he would have succeeded any whatever he pursued. People in homogeneous (i.e. of the same of similar kind) kill each other for other reasons that race. They all look the same anyway. They are already the same “racial” group, but may be different religions, tribes, or socio-economic classes. Tupac was moving as though everyone was “Black” but they were much different. At a certain level, the Caribbean people had a certain understanding among themselves, whereas “Black Americans” are groups to be divided. The last time “Black Americans” stuck together, they were infiltrated and destroyed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and local law enforcement agencies throughout the nation.
Tupac did not realize that a lot of immigrants are incentivized to cooperate with law enforcement agencies in America. First of all, they are not telling on their own ethic group and many people justify their cooperation that way. Secondly, people do not want to loose the privileges that America offers. There are people who messed up so bad that they still get deported, no matter who they cooperate against. These types are beyond rehabilitation and have psychological profiles that prove deep-rooted mental problems. Some are narcissists, psychopaths, and other deviants.
In sum, people participating in the criminal underworld helped destroy New York City’s Rap music industry. Many of those people were Caribbean descent. Until the 1970s, people from other cities had to be careful how they moved around New York City. The definitely could not engage is criminal activity without being regulated by New York’s criminal underworld If someone came from an eastern seaboard state, they could receive a pass, because almost everyone’s family in New York had migrated from a state like the Carolinas, Virginia, Georgia, et cetera. Immigrants had to more a certain way, in order to do what they wanted to do. With the emergence of crack cocaine, people from international locations around the world were allowed to cause complete chaos in America. Right now, a mass-murderer can run across the boarder and nothing significant will happen to them when they get caught. People talk about how great their country is, yet they left and decided to come to America. Most of what happened in NYC fell on Tupac Shakur, based on how he was moving. Period. Caribbean and Africans do not respect “Niggerism,” yet they reserve the right to be tokens themselves. When international people acknowledge America’s politics, they are doing it out of survival. They know that they are not in their home nation and must fight for survival. Tupac Shakur and people like him had the psychological advantage in America for a number of reasons. It means nothing if “Black Americans” become lax in how the communicate with the international community in America.

(done) Immigration and the Strength of a Nation
July 8, 2022
A nation is defined by its people, as well as the standard of life that that nation is able to provide. “Provide” does not mean to blindly give. Giving everyone resources equally is a socialist or communist societal ideal. In theory, America is capitalistic, which is based on merit. People in America are given opportunities to earn resources. Many nations around the world do not have those resources to offer, no matter how hardworking or deserving their citizenry might be. That is why people immigrate to America, which is the best nation in the world.
For many people, there is a resentment for “Americans,” especially after people have immigrated to America and received the privilege of citizenship. Many times, second-generation immigrant children become entitled within a generation or two. They say “we” when it pertains to something American Descendants of Slavery and their ancestors have done to build this nation that so many others are now able to take advantage of. What does this have to do with Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace and Tupac Shakur? By the early 1990s, the humility that immigrants and second generation immigrants had was gone. They begin to act like America was “their” country in the same way it can be claimed by American Descendants of Slavery. The difference is the contributions that American Descendants of Slavery have made to America for hundreds of years. Either as free labor or grossly underpaid labor. There would be no America without the work and ingenuity of ADOS.
If the proper level of respect existed in NYC for ADOS, there would have been no way that people would have watched Tupac Shakur get ambushed and robbed. There would have been no way that people could have continued to participate in defaming Tupac Shakur and trying to change the story of what happened to him. Make no mistake about it. It was ADOS, immigrants, and second generation immigrants who were silent on what happened to Tupac Shakur (the ambush and robbery) on November 30, 1994. Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace was despised and unfairly hated, because he was caught in the middle of what happened to Tupac Shakur. Maybe he made some comments toward Tupac Shakur, but he did not wish to see Tupac Shakur physically hurt.
The criminal elements of NYC were allowed to infiltrate the music industry and destroy the Rap music industry. They sat silently as Tupac Shakur was ambushed and robbed. They watched it happen as Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace was wrongly blamed for what was done to Tupac Shakur at Quad Recording Studios in New York City on November 30, 1994. From there, Atlanta, Georgia took the reigns and enjoyed an unprecedented amount of success in the commercial music industry.
New York and the East Coast got to the point where immigrant Africans and Caribbean people could not be told anything beneficial beyond their original nation’s ideals. African and Caribbean immigrants had collectively been in America for less that 100 years and most of them now swear they knew more about America than the wisest American Descendants of Slavery. That is why NYC is not advanced anymore. Outsiders are allowed to limit New York’s growth, to stop ADOS from elevating where NYC is supposed to be. Make no mistake about it: Caribbean people exert a lot of control over NYC, even though it is in a token sense. They are allowed to be in certain positions of power for a reason. People who appear to be “Black Americans” are often second generation Caribbean or of African immigrant descent. “Black” immigrants consistently answer and bow down to Caucasians, yet they may pretend to be defiant. If that was the case, name a revolution that Caribbean people initiated within the last 60 years. Most nations that achieved independence are still ruled by colonization from behind the scenes. Haitians led a successful revolution in 1791. Few know that the United States occupied Haiti in 1915 and established control of their political and economic interests. The influence of that occupation can be seen to this day. Haitian dictators were allowed to destroy its citizenry, which was a reflection of continued colonial rule.
The legacy of the Black Panther Party was strong enough to protect Tupac’s image, and he made sure to create music and interviews that ventured beyond simple entertainment. In countries where “Black” people rule over other “Black” people often display the same level of brutality that colonizers display. Those same Africans and Caribbean people quietly acknowledge colonial rule in America. People from around the world talk about being real, but how many Caribbean people are like Kwame Torre? Or Maurice Bishop? In other words, many Africans and Caribbean people are covert tokens who bow down to American amenities, while resenting the wisest American Descendants of Slavery.

The reason the term “American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS)” is being used is to differentiate the people who are “from” America, as opposed to those who are from an African or Caribbean country or directly descend from there and recently immigrated to America. The ADOS a/k/a “Blacks” of New York City, or America overall, never made a declarative statement about the politics involved in allegedly calling for Tupac Shakur to be ambushed and robbed on November 30, 1994. Nothing was formally said to establish and solidify the position of “native” Blacks vs. “foreign” Blacks.
Alleged immigrants and/ or those who ambushed Tupac Amaru Shakur at Quad Recording Studios on November 30, 1994 violated ethical protocols in New York City and “America.” Those who hate inner-city progress benefited. All in all, Tupac Shakur stood for “Black” people and was taking steps to strengthen ADOS’s position in America. Those who hindered his actions are were aligned with those who traditionally worked to neutralize the Black Power Movement. An American Descendant of Slavery can not travel to any “Black” nation around the world and enjoy equal status to the people in that nation. An American Descendant of Slavery could never go to an African or Caribbean nation and ambush or rob someone of Tupac Shakur’s revolutionary background. On the other hand, prominent individuals get killed in African by Africans often. The same can be said for the Caribbean, which is why those nations are not developed nations. The low level behavior is the reason why so many people flee the Caribbean and African nations for opportunities that only America can provide.
Anyone who comes to New York City/ America and harms an American Descendant of Slavery is not supposed to feel as comfortable as they do. Part of the reason is because these individuals automatically have ties to “organizations” that are designed to “neutralize” the progress of American Descendants of Slavery. The book, They Killed Notorious B.I.G. points to the way many “foreigners: are backward, ignorant, and arrogant in their thinking. Yes, we already know that many American Descendants of Slavery are blind to the facts of life. MANY, but not all of them. Many people from other countries regularly compromise themselves for their own selfish benefit. Tupac Shakur should have known who he was dealing with in NYC. Regardless, no statement was made condemning the actions of those who had a hand in the ambush of Tupac Amaru Shakur. That action was equal to what the FBI’s COINTELPRO Program did in the 1960s and 1970s. Those kinds of actions still take place today. Unofficially, the people who had a hand in the ambush and robbery of Tupac Shakur at Quad Recording Studios on November 30, 1994 will never be respected by intelligent “Black” people in America. They will always been seen as traitors and alleged co-conspirators. They will always been seen as FBI informants. Those involved in the ambush who knew about it never made a formal statement condemning the actions of those who were a part of the ambush, either directly or indirectly. People come to America and are allowed to be ignorant and infiltrate the “Black” community, until they siphon enough economics and other resources to their satisfaction, because the FBI, through the Department of Justice, directly or indirectly allows it. Those music industry insiders who never formally spoke against the November 30, 1994 ambush and robbery of Tupac Shakur are complicit though their silence. American Descendants of Slavery in New York City never said enough against those who ambushed Tupac Shakur. Their actions backfired, because Shakur proved to be an icon socially and economically. From an economic perspective, the people who ambushed Tupac Shakur cost NYC millions of dollars in revenue and opportunities because of Tupac Shakur and Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace. As usual, people benefit from the deaths of “Black” men in America.

The Black Power Movement in NYC: The International City
June 16, 2022
Updated: June 24, 2022
During the years when Tupac Shakur moved from the East Coast and lived in California, he lost touch with the pulse of what New York City had become. The dichotomy that represents NYC is simple, but complex at the same time. Second-generation children of international families are two people at the same time. They have been influenced by their parents and they also have their own experiences. “Black” people from other countries sometimes use terms like “we” when talking about ‘Black History,” but cultural differences and familial experiences cause people to see situations differently. Most international people are not going to view The Black Power Movement and the Black Panther party the same way American Descendants of Slavery view it, and that is where Tupac Shakur came up short. He assumed that he was around “Black” people which was only partially true. He was around people from many different nations and cultures from the Caribbean. That same influence has influenced Hollywood. Many of the actors portraying American Descendants of Slavery are now African or Caribbean, and there is a difference in those performances. Hollywood executives know this for a fact, which is a reason why they select non-American Descendants of Slavery to tell ADOS stories.
The book, They Killed Notorious B.I.G.: The New York Event That Triggered The Los Angeles Murder of Biggie Smalls speaks to the way non-Foundational Black Americans (FBA)/ American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS) changed America since the Immigration Act of 1965. Details of information found in this blog can be found in the book (They Killed Notorious B.I.G.). People from the continent of Africa and the Caribbean often have a different mindset. In America, everyone can claim to be “Black,” but the meaning of “Black” makes no sense. People have national origins. Prior to the early 1980s, the hierarchy in the U.S. placed Caribbean people on a lower social scale that American Descendants of Slavery. Immigrant children were a combination of their parents and their newly adopted “American” culture, so it became difficult to differentiate who was “native” and who was an immigrant. Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace was born in the U.S. but his parents were Jamaicans. Tupac Amaru Shakur’s parents are American Descendants of Slavery. By 1990, Hip Hop created a gateway where all nationalities could mesh into a new American culture. Animosity between different “Black” nationalities still existed.
On another level, ignorance about Tupac Amaru Shakur existed. Second generation immigrants and those who can to the U.S. as children think they know how America operates. The problem is the way many second generation Caribbean and African immigrants often allow their resentment and arrogance allow them to think they are more intelligent that they actually are. For example, the people accused of having Tupac Shakur ambushed at Quad Recording Studios in New York City on November 30, 1994 did not understand the ramifications of trying to “discipline” a Shakur. The other party accused of ambushing Tupac continues to speak badly about Tupac Shakur and admits that he knows who robbed Tupac. Both of these people are Haitians. Robbing Tupac Shakur is like robbing one of Marcus Garvey’s relatives or Bob Marley’s relative in it happened in Jamaica. It is like an American robbing Haitian General Francois-Dominique Toussaint L’Ouverture or someone like Emperor Jean-Jacques Dessalines in Haiti.
So-called “Black” people are known for harming their own racial group, like every other nationality in the world does on a regular basis. The difference is when people of another nationality (Haitian, etc) are able to harm someone like Tupac Shakur in America. The so-called “trigger” people are not necessarily “Haitian,” and it is not known who have Tupac ambushed at Quad Recording Studios. The problem is the fact that no formal statement was ever made condemning the action. The “Black” community never addressed the act of harming people associated with Sekou Odinga, Assata Shakur, and Afeni Shakur. Whoever harms a revolutionary is doing the work of colonialism. The Haitian factions of the criminal underworld claim that they had nothing to do with harming Tupac Shakur. The streets know the truth and nothing was said to address the situation. A statement should have been made by American Descendants of Slavery (non-immigrants) that if Haitians did call for Tupac Shakur to be robbed, they were wrong and will be on the wrong side of history for eternity. The statement should have been made that, “If “Haitians” called for the robbery of Tupac Shakur, they (directly or indirectly) did the work of covert law enforcement agencies like the FBI COINTELPRO Program 1960s and 1970s. Only the people who were in the room with the ambush planners know exactly what happened. Others in the entertainment and law enforcement community know exactly who caused the ambush of Tupac Shakur, but only the people immediately involved witnessed the plot’s development 100 percent accurately. That is why a statement should have been issued for various scenarios.
The failure to address New York City’s diversity and the way people from the Caribbean have been allowed to harm American Descents of Slavery without repercussions signaled two things. It signaled the downfall of the power base that American Descendants of Slavery represented. It also signaled the silent cooperation experiment between law enforcement agencies and U.S. society to used people of Caribbean descents to undermine American morals. So-called Haitians, Jamaicans, et cetera born in America are often still viewed “yankees” by the citizens of those Caribbean nations. Money and favors helps suppress the truth though. The point is that the ambush of Tupac Shakur could have never gone to a foreign nation and completely disrespect their communities. There are many great people who originate from the Caribbean, but at the same time many people think they are smarter than what they really are. Many are traitors to their own countries and enemies of the truth in America.

Some Differences in People

Everyone Should Admit the Truth About International Politics
April 20, 2022
Updated: April 25, 2022
In New York City, people are from a variety of backgrounds. By the late 1980s, “Black” people from the Caribbean and the continent of Africa had integrated into U.S. life. In NYC, intelligence was internationally recognized and respected. Back then, the streets knew why Tupac Amaru Shakur was ambushed at Quad Recording Studios on November 30, 1994. People say it coming and have begun to speak about it a little more since “They Killed Notorious B.I.G.” was released. Nothing needs to be said now, because those same people who might talk now knew to be remain quiet back in 1994.
A lot of people come relocate to New York City and think they know everything. Some are first generation Americans and conduct themselves as thought they know how America functions. In the past, outsiders were not allowed to do certain things in New York City. Period. Based on Tupac’s background, it is a strong possibility that law enforcement agencies were biased against Tupac Shakur and remained inactive about the ambush at Quad Recording Studios. Everyone in New York Hip Hop knew what happened, but no major news outlets fully explored the story. The streets knew about the people involved with Tupac’s ambush and remained silent. In 1994, no one would speak about what happened, yet they want to allude to seeing what was unfolding back then. Mediation was nearly impossible for many reasons, and none of the people talking about it were qualified to rectify the situation. Tupac was shown a high level of restraint, but after repeated mistakes, he was finally confronted. The question the press never asked the music industry was whether the ambush was random or calculated.
People underestimated the respect that the Black Power Movement represents. For the past few years, women have been mythologized and placed in superhero roles. They underground version of a soldier is Assata Shakur, and it does not matter whether people think she is guilty or innocent. That is the same kind of spirit that Tupac Shakur displayed.
The people who harmed Tupac Shakur, the child of revolutionaries and freedom fighters, placed a black eye on the city of New York. That event fell in line with the FBI COINTELPRO tactics that were taking place in the 1960s and 1970s. Tupac Shakur admittedly spoke on things that he was not supposed to speak on and was much too vocal about things that were not supposed to be talked about. People who immigrate to the U.S. do not realize that they are often allowed to disrupt life in inner-cities. Immigrants are often used as buffers to help control American Descendants of Slavery. Entry into the U.S. begins with giving identification information to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. Immigrants are often placed under pressure by federal law enforcement agencies, with threats of having their relatives deported, unless those families cooperate when required.
The USA is one of the few countries in the world where immigrates think they do not have to respect people who are long-standing citizens of (i.e. American Descendants of Slavery). Notorious B.I.G. showed full respect to those who trailblazed American life. Tupac Shakur’s energy toward people from the criminal underworld was not in line with solid business practices. At the same time, any highly intelligent “crime figure” would have known to avoid Tupac. People with international backgrounds often lack the historical perspective of why Tupac Shakur should not have been “disciplined” for what he was doing in NYC. International “Black” people did not care about the “Black American” race and had reached a point where they could disrespect American Descendants of Slavery. That attitude was cultivated and allowed by “White” society. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services is where those relationships subconsciously and consciously begin.
Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace was completely loyal to Tupac Shakur, based on the way Tupac had helped B.I.G. in the beginning of his career. Jamaica and the U.S. both have heavy British influence.
The November 30, 1994 ambush of Tupac Shakur at Quad Recording Studios will remain a case study of how so-called “Black” men assault each other. Malcolm X was the other main example from 1965. Tupac Shakur’s reputation continues to grow, based on who he was and how he was. Christoper “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace stayed honorable in the way he interacted with Tupac Shakur.
There are two kinds of “Black” men in New York City. Those who know and respect their own race, and those who do not. With immigration, a lot of people who appeared to be “Black” were other nationalities from American Descendants of Slavery. Others simply lacked morals and were foolish enough to confront Assata Shakur’s godson with a weapon. In her own right, Afeni Shakur was highly respected and most New Yorkers would know to give Tupac Shakur a ‘pass.’ He was ‘pass’ consisted of being disciplined and not killed outright for whatever he alleged did. That is one theory. People are talking about a lot of things, but the actors involved will never be able to justify what happened to Tupac Shakur.

Among Music Industry Insiders, the Quad Recording Studios Ambush of Tupac Shakur Was Never A Mystery
December 9, 2021
Updated April 7, 2022
By the early 1990s, the so-called “militant” Black Power Movement figure from the 1960s was stereotyped, ridiculed, and called “out of touch” with reality. The mainstream media played their part in making fun of the “militant” from the 1960s that was out of touch with reality. Anyone who followed in their militant footsteps was joked about in music, film, and television. Local law enforcement agencies and the FBI laughed the post-1960s militants, along with everyone else. The “obsolete militants” were called a joke, especially when they did not have the resources needed to counteract the damage that was being done to the community. Then something happened that no one saw coming. Tupac Shakur brought new life to the meaning of Black Power. The ignorance that Tupac Shakur promoted in his music attracted youths and music fans everywhere, but beneath the glorification of ignorance was the potential for societal disruption.
The people who were a part of the Quad Recording Studios ambush did not know the significance of who they were robbing. They had no idea how significant Lumumba Shakur and Zayd Malik Shakur were to the East Coast. Assata Shakur was Tupac’s godmother and has a story that is self-explanatory.
Throughout the 1980s, people could not come from out of town and do what they wanted to do in New York City. By the 1980s Caribbean and African criminals were allowed to so things that would not have been allowed before that time. The true origins of these people was never made clear, but the truth about them was not a mystery.
After Tupac started saying certain things in the media, New York City knew something was going to happen to him. He disrespected two people who could not be disrespected without consequences. No one took responsibility for the ambush when it counted and the smart ones remained silent. Why? There is a problem with what was done to Tupac. By confronting Tupac Shakur with guns, the whole legacy of the Black Power Movement was disrespected. Tupac Shakur was not supposed to be confronted at gunpoint by the people who ambushed him, because of the people he was connected with. Ambushing the comrade of a Black Power Movement member’s child was a major problem that people still do not comprehend.
The Shakur family is highly respected in New York City and is historically relevant to the Black Power Movement. Harming Tupac Shakur in New York City was like attempting to harm Assata Shakur. No one takes responsibility for their part in the ambush, because they will look like ignorant traitors to the “Black” race.
The Quad Recording Studios ambush signaled the end of cultural accountability in New York City. Soon afterwards, the Deep South was promoted in New York like never before. Ignorance became a regular part of East Coast culture.
There is a deeper dynamic though. New York became a place where “outsiders” could be disrespectful to New Yorkers. First generation “Americans” from Caribbean and African nations were conducting themselves as though their families had been in New York for generations. Globally, the “Negro” is often viewed as the ones who are confused and lacking self-awareness. By the 1980s, American inner-cities were in a downward spiral. That is another dynamic that no one talks about.
Tupac pushed some psychological buttons that triggered the jealousy, hatred, and resentment that already existed. The people Tupac accused to having him ambushed were Caribbean. Specifically, Haitian. James “Jimmy Henchman” Rosemond and Jacques “Haitian Jack” Agnant is Haitian. People claim to be “New Yorkers,” but did not have the credentials that the Shakur family had. Not Tupac, but his family. Assata, Afeni, Mutulu and the list goes on. These were the Black Power Movement figures who were not supposed to be disrespected by so-called “Black” people. People stopped caring about anti-colonial ideologies.
Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace, his Caribbean friends, and associates adopted American ignorance and made it their credo. They embraced and adopted “Niggerism.” That kind of ideology is negative and led to what happened to Tupac Shakur and Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace.

Character Assassination: Quad Recording Studios Ambush Set the Stage for the Future of New York City
Post Date: September 22, 2021
The purpose of this book is not to get anyone in trouble. A lot of people should be embarrassed though. The Quad Recording Studios ambush said a lot about the cultural climate that was unfolding in New York at that time. The Immigration Act of 1965 allowed more non-traditional groups (Caribbean and African immigrants) to be allowed into the United States. The American Descendant of Slavery is not identified by nationality, due to their history in America and the circumstances that cloud their existence, which makes their “Black-American”racial title equivalent to the Popular song, “We Are The World” where everyone is included.
They fail to recognize how the competition for resources forces other “Blacks” to put their own pursuit of the American Dream in front of any loyalty to the “Black” race (Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace remained loyal to Tupac Shakur and never forgot how much Pac did for his career. Notorious B.I.G. did not resent Tupac’s talent, because he was talented enough to avoid being jealous of the success Tupac had). That is the difference, because “Black” people from around the world identify with their own nationality first. The Negro was mis-educated and encouraged to think everyone respected him in America, which they do not. Those from the Caribbean will acknowledge their own geographical region (The West Indies) after identifying with their specific nationality. Those from the 54 countries that comprise the continent of Africa identify themselves by nationality, and ethnic tribe. All of these various identities may also be divided into political affiliation, skin tone, or socio-economic class.
When Tupac Shakur started being ignorant around Caribbean people, they did not respect him like he thought they should. He became they stereotype they were warned about. Caribbean people’s children act “Niggerish” but they know that they are not American “Niggers.” They definitely know that they are not Negroes. Tupac was not a Negro, because a Negro is a social construct created by American commerce for the purpose of the institution of chattel Slavery. He did promote Nigga ideology in his music, knowing that it connected to inner-city youth. Today, young people all around the world identify with “Nigga” usage and Rap music in the “Nigga” context.
In America, no one who came up after the 1970s was forced to live a life of crime. Even if they had to steal in order to eat, there are legal options to lead to education and economic advancement after a certain point. The people who were around Tupac Shakur (ADOS) were mainly Jamaican, (Notorious B.I.G., Randy “Stretch” Walker, et cetera), and Haitian (Jacques “Haitian Jack” Agnant, James “Jimmy Henchman” Rosemond, Pras from The Fugees, et cetera). There were a number of others within each of those ethnic groups that knew exactly what was going on. Alleged extortion and intimidation. Within each ethnic group, there are other cultural differences that exist. Tupac focused on the Americanization of first generation immigrants, instead of looking at the unique politics that each nationality based its behavior on. He knew nothing about Haitians, which made him unqualified to be around Haitians. That was a major mistake Tupac Shakur made.
First generation Caribbean people are too mentally advanced for any “Black-American” who is one dimensional and outwardly ignorant. They will play “Nigga” with you, but that is not what they hear at home and that is not who they are. After approximately two generations, many Caribbean children are just as ignorant as “Americans,” but they still have an advantage over American Descendants of Slavery who completely lack unity on a national scale. The hear Caribbean values. At a certain point, a lot of people become Americanized, in a bad way. It can be a good thing, but it is usually the bad traits that people pick up on. For conservative Jamaicans, they did not like Rastafarians, which is why they did not like Bob Marley and his music. Today, Marley is a national hero and a music icon who is respected around the world. He was never favored by the bourgeois class of Jamaicans and was not declared a national hero in Jamaica by the government in the 1970s. He was a hero of the people, and oppressed people around the world. The Jamaican government was not supportive of his music then. The message was too revolutionary, but everyone claims they always loved Bob Marley. The love the sound, but not the lyric’s message.
People come in a write about Hip Hop, but are often outsiders. They scrounge around for information and go get major television deals from what they found. They were not on the streets of New York City or any other inner-city street. Criminals do not count, because respected criminals do not do media interviews. The ones who claim to be respected are not able to interact within the criminal underworld, unless they are just as willing to do interviews with law enforcement, which is the same as being on a media platform talking about past crimes. Police watch interviews and use the information for solving murders, which is another reason why truly respected crime figures do not do interviews. To elaborate, would be a contradiction.
The question about the Quad Recording Studios robbery is whether Jacques “Haitian Jack” Agnant and James “Jimmy Henchman” Rosemond had anything to do with the ambush. Legally, they did not and anyone who tries say anything different can not prove their guilt. The people who were around them know what happened and we let people read some important aspects of the event in the book. Then, the people can decide what happened for themselves. The point is, the people who are from that era know what happened.
When people come to America, they do not feel like they own American Descendants of Slavery a certain level of respect. Why? There used to be a lot of conflict between Caribbean people and American “Blacks.” There is a false notion that Caucasians push that says Americans are lazy. Immigrants and children born of immigrants do not know the real politics against American Descendants of Slavery, so Caucasians favor their ignorance and encourage the two groups animosity of an institutional level. At the highest level, America wants to see anything and anyone who makes capitalism stronger. The lower level Caucasians need conflict so they are insert themselves into positions where they capitalize.
Tupac Shakur did not know the politics of race, as it related to the Caribbean, especially the differences between Jamaicans and Haitians. If an American Descendant of Slavery is knowledgeable, Caribbean and Africans will respect them. For the others, immigrants often feel like the American “Blacks” are squandering opportunities. They fail to recognize the mental illness that is prevalent in American from the trauma that is institutionally aimed at “American” Blacks. Some “Black” people can not see what is happening and sidestep poor decision-making.
There are two issues. One, the robbers were randomly waiting for someone to rob and ambushed Tupac on their own. If that is the case, that is the end of the story. The other version is that people associated with Agnant and Rosemond (Haitians) allegedly arranged to have Tupac “disciplined.” The people who were around back then know the truth and never said anything publicly. There were not supposed to say anything, but they were supposed to condemn the actions as a act of war against all “Black Panther Party and Black Liberation Army political prisoners in America. Not every revolutionary was guilty, and that was supposed to be clarified. This book, They Killed Notorious B.I.G. deals with the facts surrounding the ambush of Tupac Shakur and how that was a direct violation of the political respect Assata Shakur receives around the world.
There are a lot of theories, which we don not focus on. The books includes facts. The reader can speculate about what exactly happened, based on the information we provide.
First, Tupac did not know enough about Caribbean people. Second, he should have stayed away from criminals, because he placed himself in a position to be compromised. Most importantly, people are not going to be talked to disrespectfully and not watch something happen to that talker. Had Tupac conducted himself correctly, he could have avoided all drama. In turn, Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace would have remained safe. All of the other theories about conspiracies could have been true, but the preventable events helped accelerate the animosity that followed Tupac. No one forced Tupac to be with the woman who accused him of rape. He should have never interacted with her in the first place. No one can be blamed for that, whether they introduced her to him or not.
When people start making money, their environment speeds up and they tend to miss dangerous signs that they should watch out for.
The point of the book is something else: under no circumstances were Caribbean people supposed to allow anything to happen to Tupac Shakur under any circumstances. Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace might have said he was told not to say anything about Tupac Shakur, but after it is all said and done, Wallace was loyal and grateful for what Tupac had done to help his career. Everyone knows that criminals had a certain grip on New York City’s Hip Hop music industry. No one could ever go to Jamaica and have children and those children grow up and bully people in the Reggae or Dancehall music community. That is exactly what happened to New York. The people who were of Caribbean descent were actually first generation American. Some of them were. Some were immigrants. New York was so agitated with Tupac Shakur that they watched him get ambushed and said nothing. Yes, Tupac brought a lot of that drama on himself, but no statement was made. Today, Caribbean people and Africans can do what they want, because the so-called Black race does not stand up a standard of unity. The “Negro” is designed to fight people who look like him and accept the disrespect that is comes in an intelligent, systematic manner.
Everyone in the streets of New York City saw the destructive path Tupac Shakur was on. A lot of criminals are in the entertainment industry and have transitioned into legitimate business people. They knew to pull back and not hurt people, although these artists may have gotten disrespectful. If the Haitians allowed Tupac to be robbed…we include key facts in the book…they were wrong for letting him get under their skin. They were wrong for taking him seriously. Tupac Shakur was never a threat to the Caribbean criminals in New York City. He talked a lot, because that is what Hip Hop had become. He always talked that way and always got into minor conflicts with people.
People who thought they were cleaver were not cleaver. There are a lot of Caribbean underworld figures in America who are very good at what they do. They do not retaliate against people in ways that will make the whole world question what just happened like the Quad Recording Studios ambush did. If it was not for the mainstream press in New York downplaying the Quad Recording Studios ambush, people would have been exposed for what they allegedly did. To this day, people will not admit what happened. Admitting it now is unnecessary. If anything, people continue to try and reshape the story, which looks just as bad. It looks suspicious and is a reflection of law imperialist influence. Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace and Tupac Shakur got caught in a world of billion dollar business and politics.
The criminals who were in positions of power squandered their power because they allowed Tupac Shakur and Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace to be killed. Now, the Caribbean politics must be exposed. The Haitians did not care. Not all Haitians are the same, but the “Black-American” fails to realize that Haitian people set each other up everyday. Jamaican people set each other up everyday. So-called Africans set each other up everyday. This was about class, socioeconomic status, and money. Tupac Shakur was not being managed through the science of politics. He was being managed through “Niggerism.” Was he being told he was acting like a “Negro”? Was he being told that politically, he was not in control of how he was conducting himself? In some cases, yes. The Haitians and Jamaicans who were around Tupac did not know enough about the Black Panther Party for Self Defense. They did not know enough about Assata Shakur, although her book was published in 1988. Tupac was not supposed to be touched by “Black” people, and it is the same thing that happened to Malcolm X. So yes, the people who ambushed Tupac were benevolent because instead of killing him, they were only there to rob him (sarcasm); only “discipline” him, right? This is where the mainstream press never took the ambush investigation far enough in the mainstream media. Witnesses would not talk, but information that was provided in interviews gave enough clues to investigate further via a major news magazine story like what is done on 60 Minutes, 20/20, or Inside Edition. Those outlets were not interested, yet Tupac Shakur was a national figure. He had been in controversies with Dan Quayle and the head executives at Time Warner. Tie those politics together with Assata Shakur, and it was a story that was common sense back then. Even news outlets like MTV would have been guessing about what was going on, because only the streets knew the real story. Unless they had asked one of their “Negro Whisperers” a/k/a “Black” news reporters to tell them what was going on. There wasn’t anything to tell. Everyone knew everything, but did not speak the truth. For some reason, certain people were allowed to cause problems to the Hip Hop music industry. Certain people were allowed to disrupt hardworking communities in New York City by victimizing “Black” people. The critical voices of New York City could not say anything because the city allowed immigrants to hold NYC hostage and terrorize inner city communities. People who were not specific ethnicities were allowed to extort people within their own Caribbean groups and inside the “Black-American” group.
Tupac Shakur was the cause behind a lot of what happened to him. Yes, he was talking reckless to confirmed gangsters, which is not allowed. The so-called Caribbean gangsters showed a lack of sophistication, because they were too ignorant of how American operates and they did not care to know. They did not know enough about America to interact with Tupac Shakur a different way. People are lying and know what they did was wrong, and law enforcement is on their side because the Shakurs are enemies of the state. That is the bottom line. People told on themselves in interviews, but law enforcement knew the truth back then also. Tupac brought a lot of those actions on himself. This is a reason why no one said anything.
Caribbean gangsters were admittedly terrorizing New York City and that was a violation of United States citizens who fought wars to be safe from outside conflict and outsiders who were not “civilized.” In Third World countries, African and Caribbean people treat each other like animals, and were allowed to bring that savagery to American inner-cities. That behavior would never be tolerated in Caucasian communities, which proves it was a form of social engineering.
The people who ambushed Tupac were acting like it was a planned robbery. How were they able to be in the Quad Recording Studios lobby so accurately, without being detected and asked to stop loitering? The point of it all is the fact that the mainstream press never dug deeper into the situation like we put in this book. That shows that something else was at play. No conspiracy theory needed. Mainly, they did not care and the NYPD did not want to promote Assata Shakur by mentioning her ties to Tupac Shakur. Assata Shakur was mentioned along with the alleged Black Liberation Army members who allegedly killed two NYPD officers in Brooklyn in 1972. For that reason alone, the police would never care about who ambushed Tupac Shakur. The irony is the fact that “Black” people ambushed Tupac Shakur. The question is, who sent them? No one ever admitted that they did it, and no one was ever convicted. Back then, it could have been solved. Now, it is past any legal consequences and it does not matter anyway.
So, it is known that Tupac was at fault for being around criminals, once he reached the amount of fame he had reached. His name was worth money, period. None of this was was about him. These so-called criminals did not know the symbolic power of Assata Shakur. Most “Black” people are caught and apprehended before they can ever escape to another country. Who would they know that would not turn them in for a reward? Assata Shakur is recognized as a revolutionary. Cuba looked at the legal irregularities involved with the case, and by 1975, they had access to the Church Committee documents about CIA and FBI were doing with COINTELPRO. They could see that reasonable doubt existed, and could see that there were some legal problems with how J. Edgar Hoover conducted his attack on the Black Power Movement members. No one denies that.
New York City never made a statement against the unnecessary violence used against Tupac Shakur at Quad Recording Studios on November 30, 1994. Yes, he spoke on things he was not supposed to speak about, but he was not supposed to be confronted at gunpoint and ‘taught any lessons.’
No impartial investigation was ever done into the murder Assata Shakur was charged with, because it was like a wartime mission within the U. S.. There could have never been a proper investigation unless the United Nations looked at the situation, and then they would still favor the U.S. Cuba knew that. The truth will never come forward about the attack on the Black Power Movement until everyone associated with the FBI, NYPD, and other law enforcement agencues involved are dead. Actually, the truth can never be revealed, regardless of what the Church Committee discovered and redacted. The 1960s was a straight era and the era was something unimaginable.
Right now, Assata Shakur is at the top of the Most Wanted Terrorist list. Haitians did not know the political significance of Assata Shakur. Jamaicans did not know the importance of Assata Shakur. That was the mistake of whoever allowed Tupac Shakur to be ambushed, shot, and robbed. This book, They Killed Notorious B.I.G. clarified the significance of the connection between Assata Shakur and Tupac Shakur. America has made all of these dumb TV shows glorifying “gangsters,” when it is the revolutionaries that America is uncomfortable with. Yes, Tupac Shakur was a potential revolutionary. A conspiracy was not needed to hurt Tupac Shakur, because he did a good job of being self-destructive on his own.
The alleged Caribbean people who watched Tupac get ambushed did not know Tupac’s significance, or they simply did not care about this, which is worse. Caribbean people are smart, but they are not known for caring about American history. Most people generally focus on their own interests, although they live in America. The problem is with when people act like they are smarter than they really are. Many immigrants are guilty of this. The assumption is that most Americans are lazy and lucky and just happened to be in a thriving nation. Little respect is given to the people who actually make it what it still is today. Those same people are American Descendants of Slavery. Others have contributed also, but to disrespect Tupac Shakur said a lot of New York City and the major mistake that was allowed to happen. Caucasians can not be criticized, because “Black” slave-minded peons on every continent have been compliant in the murders or their own people for centuries. International “Black” people and “Latin” people know to not blame the “White” man, because they are the true traitors to their own people.
Specifically, people who were from that era and saw Tupac Shakur ambushed they did not know enough about the Black Panther Party to make sure nothing happened to Tupac Shakur.
The Quad Recording Studios ambush was the official sign that Caribbean people could do serious harm to American Descendants of Slavery in New York and nothing was said about it. Law enforcement makes sure it does not say or do anything to bring attention to revolutionary groups and people like Assata Shakur. The ambush of Tupac Shakur, her godson, was a “police-positive” action. This is not about supporting the Black Panther Party or Assata Shakur. It is saying that anyone “Black” that touched Tupac looked bad for doing so. A lot of Caucasians do not like active White Supremacist groups, but they are going to stay away from them, instead of actively doing anything to them.
Quickly review some Caribbean politics. Louis Farrakhan is originally from the Bronx. His parents are from St. Kitt and the paternal parent is from Jamaica. With Malcolm X, his paternal parent was from Georgia and his paternal parent was from Grenada, so he and Farrakhan were both half-Caribbean. Marcus Garvey was Jamaican and people often ask, how could an American Descendant of Slavery follow Louis Farrakhan or Marcus Garvey in America. A whole race of ADOS people followed Caribbean leaders. Malcolm is different because he was half-Caribbean. Farrakhan and Garvey were both Caribbean and lead “Black-Americans.” This showed that untimately, American Descendants of Slavery respected Caribbean people enough to let them lead in America. From those examples of leadership, the respect became less.
Again, no one said anything chastising the actions of the people who ambushed Tupac. No one wanted to be on file in Hip Hop publications criticizing the people who were robbing rappers. No one that had “knowledge of self” and was no in the music industry was allowed to say that most of the mid-1990s Rap music was negative. By 1995, the respect for the U.S. was different. Caribbean people were doing a lot of bad things in the 1980s and it was allowed. In the 1970s, New York was stricter. Nobody from down South could come to NYC and rob and extort the streets. That is not how the criminal underworld works in NYC.
Excessive violence against citizens would not have been allowed. We can look back and see that something was happening. NYPD admits that they were watching the Hip Hop music industry and eventually announced their special unit called “The Hip Hop Police.” Billions of dollars in music sales were being generated by New York artists, yet random stick-up artists were allowed to disrupt that billions of dollars in revenue? By 1998, many stick-up artists were removed from the streets and sent to prison Upstate or to the Federal Prison System. The crack-cocaine era was artificial. The police saw everything that was happening and knew everything. Law enforcement just watched until it was time to shut the crack-cocaine era down. The shut-down in NYC began in 1988 and had similar occurances in cities around the U.S. Law enforcement agencies were not unaware of what was happening. Nothing complicated was going on, and law enforcement could have moved in and shut certain activity down anything they wanted to do so. The NYPD and law enforcement agencies around the country saw what was happening during the crack-cocaine era and decided to stand down. When stick-up artists and extortionists started leaning on Hip Hop music industry figures, law enforement agents saw that also. They watched and did not do anything until killings and shootouts started to happen.

New York: Skyscrapers…Everything
Post Date: September 15, 2021; Updated September 20, 2021
Today’s youth have no direction, because they were left without any authentic guidance. Unfortunately, those youth do not know to listen to the few who are authentic. The positive examples they see are not glamorized. The circus clowns are under the brightest spotlights for everyone to see. Look at Brooklyn and the way Hip Hop artists want to harm each other. This came largely from the way Tupac Shakur and Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace were treated by gangsters that they knew or knew about in New York City. Allegedly, right? Because no one condemned the actions of the people who ambushed Tupac, we saw Caribbean immigrant children grow up and act just as ignorant as the people who watched him get robbed. Some of this all came from the Caribbean criminals who glorified their activities and still talk about it today. The perpetrators of the Tupac Shakur ambush described in this book were “Black” people. It was “Black” people who shot Tupac Shakur. It was not a Caucasian. If the people who are accused of setting up the ambush really did it, look how many people ignored how much of a political move it was to ambush and rob a Shakur. The music industry people knew and never said anything. Few people never criticized them for what they did to Assata Shakur. Again, if a random stick up artist had robbed Tupac, that is something different.
The ambush suspects are still an embarrassment to the “Black” race, but that is normal for “Black” people. Losing is what some criminals represent, and it is something that they embrace. These are the type who will not act like defeatists and blame the “White” man for all of their problems. Some criminals do not care about their own people, but they usually meet their fate in the end. We want the reader to do the speculating about who exactly ambushed Tupac. We include the evidence in the book. Again, the only people who really know are the ones who were around the Hip Hop music industry. The clues add up to the answer, and there are only two possibilities of what happened.
We see the young Drill Music artists in Brooklyn who adopted their style of music from Chicago, and they represent murdering their own people. This all started from what happened to Brooklyn and the self-destructive gangs and what happened to Tupac and Biggie. Again, they did this to Assata Shakur. Who would be happy about what happened to Tupac Shakur? Law enforcement, because of what happened the NYPD officers were murdered in 1972. All of these events are the past, but it still has not been forgotten.
There was a time when the streets of New York City spoke, and humble people listened. Those who did not listen were shown the truth. There is another level of arrogance being seen in international people. On the other side of the coin, many Americans are apathetic and ignorant also. The difference between the two is their common avoidance of reality. This book, They Killed Notorious B.I.G.: The New York Event That Triggered The Los Angeles Murder of Biggie Smalls is an example of the new direction that real conversations take. Someone had to clarify the fact that the Quad Recording Studios ambush was widely ignored by the mainstream media back then. The Hip Hop music industry knew exactly what happened and the criminal underworld knew what happened. The ambush pointed out a lot of things about the growth of the Hip Hop music industry and the decline of the New York criminal underworld. The bottom line is this: most international countries outside of Europe operate poorly. They are corrupt, poor, or lack opportunities. The Caribbean is no different. Everyone wants to blame what someone else took from them, but look at what they do to each other. That goes for the Caribbean and American Descendants of Slavery.
Look at what Caribbean people were allowed to do in America. There were always a few immigrants who rose to the top of their fields in America, but with 1990s New York City, Caribbean people helped ruin the Hip Hop music industry. They helped ruin many New York City communities by committing crimes and pushing drugs. This is not a surprise, because their home countries do not know how to operate smooth-running nations. They are subject to being controlled by outside nations, so when their subjects emigrate to America, their civil behavior is less sophisticated that those with experience. The same can be said for Southerners who come to New York. They have to watch and catch on, before assimilating into the culture. Some first generation immigrants never learn, but they would have sworn that they were moving properly. That is the arrogance many immigrants have. They come to America like they know more about America than the “smart” people who are already in America. They make a few dollars and think that defines their character. Yes, who allowed that money to be made? That is where the conversation changes.
A Caribbean emigrant is a great one when he sticks to what he was supposed to do in America. Their ability to save and be financially conservative until they amass a respectable amount of money is cultural. Many Americans are diehard consumers and can not save any more. Those are the strengths to learn from Caribbean people. They should always stay within the legal framework of America. Very few have strayed from the legal framework of America and remained successful. That is what happened with the main people who were a part of the Quad Recording Studios era when Tupac Shakur was ambushed in 1994. Caribbean people think they know more than they really know and Caucasians accept their selective ignorance, because it is usually reserved for American Descendants of Slavery. Around Caucasians, most Asiatic people accept Caucasian authority.
D-list celebrities are getting TV show and documentary deals, since they are partnering with the leeches and parasites who eat from the flesh of inner-city people. That is the undercurrent of what They Killed Notorious B.I.G. is really about. Instead, the book talks about the ambush of Tupac Shakur and the way B.I.G. was blamed and later allowed to be killed.
This book, They Killed Notorious B.I.G. originates from the streets of New York City. The knowledge is nationwide. For that reason, names of criminals are not used and specific explanations of criminality are discussed in detail. The names that are used come forth when it necessary and when those individuals put their stories out to the public. Most Hip Hop stories come from outsiders. Anyone who was in Manhattan, New York in 1993-1995 knew the climate that existed when the Quad Recording Studios ambush happened. The people on the streets at that time knew. A certain segment of the Caribbean community knew what happened. Hip Hop knew. The internet did not exist, but the energy surrounding Hip Hop was just as strong as it is now. Most criminals had no respect for Hip Hop. Some did, but they knew the truth.
Criminals ended up destroying Hip Hop as we knew it back then, and it became what it looks like now. If people were smart, they would have made billions of dollars from the background. This is where some people proved to be ignorant. They thought they were smart and ended up messing up everything. They got people hurt and got in trouble themselves. Gangsters are celebrated in society, because revolutionaries are more dangerous to the status quo. People say, “Tupac wasn’t a gangster.” No, he was a member of a political clan who were admittedly political and revolutionary, which is much more threatening and dangerous to any opposition government that the pseudo-gangsters who are regularly paraded on major network television.
Today, a televised gangster is like a pet in a zoo that comes out of their enclosure and interacts with the zoo’s visitors. They come out to get snacks and treats thrown at them. They eat those crumbs and growl for the crowd. TV glorifies gangsterism, but what happened to the ones who are on TV? They either went to prison or testified in court against someone. Or they told on someone in secret. Then, they are back in their old neighborhood struggling, trying to tell their story for money or fame. Respected criminals stay quiet and don’t do interviews, which is why this book is unique. No one else was going to know how to explain what happened without focusing on naming criminals.
From this point downward on this blog, this is an additional 50 pages of information, which makes the book roughly 275 pages. The blog will not be completely clear unless you have the book. More references are included with the book. Now, Combine this information with They Killed Notorious B.I.G.: The New York Event That Triggered The Los Angeles Murder of Biggie Smalls and you will see how and why Tupac Shakur was ambushed, shot, and robbed at Quad Recording Studios in NYC. More importantly, you will see why no one said anything publicly. You will learn why the New York media did not place more emphasis on the story. We can give you a hint. Tupac Shakur is Assata Shakur’s nephew. Her book is titled Assata: An Autobiography (1988). Think about that for a moment and decide if you know how significant the Shakurs are in New York City. She is an alleged fugitive who escaped prison from the state of New Jersey for a murder she is accused of committing. The victim happens to be a New Jersey state trooper. She was allegedly a BLA member like the alleged Black Liberation Army (BLA) members who were of accused and/ or convicted of killing two NYPD officers in the Bronx, New York in 1972.
That case was still an open case, in 2001. This part of this story is not conspiracy. Assata Shakur was mentioned as being a part of these murders, due to her being an alleged member of the BLA. The point being made here is about the confusion and controversy involved in the Tupac Shakur ambush at Quad Recording Studios. The controversy comes from many different directions. People outside of the entertainment industry speculate about what happened at Quad Recordings Studios when Tupac Shakur was ambushed. The point is the tangled web that encircled the whole situation. People within the entertainment industry knew what happened. The Quad Recording Studios ambush had multiple possibilities and more than one causes.
The basic premise is that “someone” had Tupac ambushed and they only meant to rob him to teach him a lesson. He allegedly resisted and got shot and robbed. The other version is that the robbery was random. The other factor is that the NYPD would not have cared, unless they were forced to do something about it. Everyone knew, but could not prove it. The other part is that it was because of comments Tupac made. The point is this: with all of this going on, no one every said much about the robbery back then. Yeah, a story or two was written, but this story should have been on the TV news magazines 20/20, 60 Minutes, and Inside Edition. These shows are produced and broadcast just a few miles away from where the ambush happened. The whole time this was happening to Tupac in 1994, Assata Shakur was in exile in Cuba. That is why this was such a strange situation. Common New Yorkers can figure out what might have happened. There are two possibilities. Either someone randomly targeted Tupac at Quad Recording Studios, or someone associated with the Quad Recording Studios sessions decided to have Tupac ambushed. The people who were around the New York Hip Hop music industry knew what happened. They don’t have to say anything now. The point of the book is to point out the embarrassment New York suffered at the hands of whoever ambushed Tupac. No one was held intellectually accountable. The response did not have to be a violent one, but it was a must that the so-called real “Black” voices condemned the actions of those ambush assailants.
When Tupac Shakur was ambushed and robbed, the Black Power Movement was officially crippled. Khalid Abdul Muhammad tried to revive the New Black Panther Movement, but an actual Shakur was shot like he was a nobody. Yes, Tupac was loud and confrontational, but he was not the enemy of “Black” people. In fact, he was a few decisions away from changing America. He had the resources and talent. In the meantime, he made some notorious Haitians mad. The question is, did they try to extort him, or was he just being too ignorant for his own good? The book makes this clear. Tupac Shakur could have avoided the gangsters who may or may not have wanted to extort/ work with him. They would not have bothered him, if he moved more cautiously. He had the power and influence to avoid being involved in any conflicts with them. Speculation does not count, so the book includes facts that people said themselves. The situation unfolded like a “who done it” murder mystery that Alfred Hitchcock would have been proud of.
Keep in mind that the FBI was in the middle of all of this, as a part of the FBI COINTELPRO program, so anything is possible. Because of his connection to Afeni Shakur and Assata Shakur and the other Shakur family members, law enforcement and the media did not have the power to bring light to Tupac’s ambush. Tupac himself had shot an off-duty police officer. He beat the case because the cop shot at Tupac first, and the officer also had a gun that was stolen from the evidence room. All of this happened down south. Georgia. Yes…just a few things that are skipped over on a regular basis.
Tupac was on his way to a recording session, and was ambushed. Everyone knows that part. He was a marked man long before he was ambushed, and some of the reason was due to his own neglect. To his credit, he tried to remain a ‘man of the people.’ At a certain point in his career, he was not supposed to conduct himself the same way he could do earlier in his career. Documented information is included in the actual book, which substantiates what is said here in this blog. We could not mention this information, because the book would have been different.
Combining the information of this blog with the book explains information that was fully explained in the book. The people who were around Tupac Shakur and Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace allowed two “golden geese” to be killed. The street faction were in their own moments of jealousy and arrogance. They did not respect the rhymes, as if rhyming was real life. The objective for real businessmen making a transition into the recorded music industry would have been to protect Tupac and Christopher Wallace. That got messed up in New York and Las Vegas. This book is about the untold story that can never be told, because it was not told when it counted: November, 1993.
The bottom line is that Tupac did not know enough about Haitians, Jamaicans, or Caribbean people in general. They do not respect ignorance, although immigrant or first generation immigrant children may act ignorant themselves. They are mimicking popular culture, but they will only go so far. Tupac did not know how New York street politics worked. Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace tried to warn Tupac about certain aspects of Tupac’s behavior. The point of this blog is to point out how New York watched all of this happen. They knew what was coming, because they knew how he was.
The people who saw what happened to Tupac remained silent for a variety of reasons. If they come out and speak now, they are proving why they were ill-equipped to speak out at that time. No book on this subject is as clear as They Killed Notorious B.I.G. People were paid to harm Tupac Shakur, more than likely. If not, the robbers saw him as a victim who deserved to be robbed. It does not matter. The point is that Tupac could have avoided being robbed. All of his behavior was spiraling into chaos. Notorious B.I.G. saw it coming, but was not able to say anything. It was not his job to hold Tupac’s hand and warn him outright. The whole city saw the path Tupac was on. Tupac did not listen to the people she should have been listening to. The people close to the situation said what happened and we put their own words in the book. No speculation is in the book, because the only people who really know are the ones close to the situation. The point of this book is to show how the city went silent and owed more to Assata Shakur. The city remained silent, because they don’t care about Assata Shakur, except if they could place her in prison. Whoever was involved in the Tupac ambush received consideration because they did something bad to Assata’s nephew. That was a slight amount of revenge and poetic justice (pun intended) for the murders that occurred in NYC and New Jersey.
No one can legally prove who had Tupac Shakur ambushed. If anyone can prove it, it is the NYPD or the FBI. People on the street knew what happened. For the general public, it can not be proven. Besides, the statute of limitations has passed. The shooters are no longer subject to arrest or prosecution for the Quad Recording Studios shooting. The point is that the streets know what happened and said nothing publicly to condemn the robbery of a young man who came from such a prominent family in the Black Power Movement. No one said anything and ended up indirectly contributing to criminals getting more respect that legitimate people. Negroes tell politicians that drug dealers should be pardoned for selling crack-cocaine and those same celebrities do not even mention Assata Shakur or Mumia Abu-Jamal. Yet these same Negroes complain about racism and what the “White” man does to them. The “White” man definitely witnessed why Negroes have no integrity, because they let illegal immigrants and first generation immigrants speak badly about Tupac Shakur and did not say anything about it in public.
Yes, Tupac admitted that he had a big mouth and said disrespectful things about people he known have know to leave alone, but that did not make him deserve to be “disciplined” ambushed, or whatever people want to call it. These people robbed the Black Panther Party, which was not going to end well. It is still a story people won’t address, because Assata Shakur’s nephew was confronted at gunpoint, which goes against everything that freedom is. Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace was real. He held back and never retaliated against Tupac, because Wallace knew that Tupac was not aware of New York street politics like he needed to be.
The deeper reason the Quad Recording Studios ambush was accepted and not elaborated on in the media is because the tension worked in law enforcement’s favor. Law enforcement could let these renegade Caribbean criminals destroy Brooklyn and American Descendants of Slavery and then wait until they did something extremely stupid and arrest them. That is some of what happened. No book told this story because it was deeper than Rap music. Now, so-called “Black” people lost control of Hip Hop and it has been morphed into a new genre of deeper ignorance. Pill-popping, junkie rapping, stripper-rhyming degeneracy. LGBT rappers, hedonistic, WAP-inspired gender bending Hip Hop music is now Pop music and if anyone says anything, they will be banned from using large concert venues to perform.
Everyone was friends with the people who were robbing and extorting American Descendants of Slavery and nobody said anything. Were they afraid? The NYPD just sat back and watched Caribbean people take control of Hip Hop and hand it to European and American Caucasian multinational corporations. It isn’t the fact that it was taken over. It is the fact that Negroes could never get it back. It would take courage and integrity. Since the 1960s, it became common to pay a few Negroes and they would gladly sell their whole racial group’s souls. People sold Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace’s life by allowing him to think he was adequately protected.
The journey for many Latino, African, and Caribbean immigrants is similar to the story Stevie Wonder told on his 1973 smash hit single, “Living for the City” from his Innervisions album. The song was about a young man who came to NYC from Mississippi and got caught up in the complexity of urban life. People get caught up in being ignorant, no matter how much money they are able to make. Now, their children are often Americanized and doing the same stupid things they resented about Negroes. Some people tried to hide and are not faced with being cowards who thought America was only about money. Morals count also.
Caribbean immigrants and first generation Caribbean-American children roamed the streets of New York while their parents came to America and worked long hours so they could have children that lived better lives. Caribbean-American and Latino children were known to listen to their parents and study hard in school. As a result, they grew to become professions in prestigious fields such as doctors, lawyers, and engineers. Then something begin to happen. The U.S. loosened its restrictions with the Immigration Act of 1965 and slowly began to admit more people. The children of immigrants began to stray from what the moral values they were taught at home. Before long, many Latin and Caribbean immigrant children got mixed in with many criminal elements in New York City.
Law enforcement agencies knew that certain Caribbean criminals were lowering the property value of Brooklyn by flooding the streets with crack-cocaine and the crime that came with it. This continued into the 1990s, as real estate prospectors prepared to buy Brooklyn and gentrify it. Some specific Caribbean people were allowed to extort and devalue the Hip Hop music industry, because they were able to blend in and portray themselves as “Black.” In American, “Black” represents American Descendants of Slavery. In NYC, it looked integrated because of the flow of immigrants that was being allowed in the 1980s.
In Order to Know Why Tupac Was Having Certain Problems, Look At the Caribbean, Brooklyn, and the Tension Between American Descendants of Slavery and Caribbean People
No other group were revolutionaries against the U.S. government. No one else in America was like the Black Liberation Army, Black Panther Party, or the Black Power Movement in general. Caucasians funded the Black Panther Party, while the Black Liberation Army was different. Surprisingly, Caucasian radical groups were willing to assist some “Black” militant groups, which is why Caribbean immigrants because unintentional allies of the U.S. government. Most Caribbean people were like mercenaries and were only worried about their individual wealth and what they could funnel back to their homelands. They were not enemies with the U.S. government. They worshiped the U.S. dollar, like most poor nations do.
The Caribbean immigrants of the 1970s did not support the Trinidadian revolutionary Kwame Ture. He was actually a revolutionary in America and on the continent of Africa. In terms of Brooklyn, very few Haitians support “Black” revolution in America. They are like mercenaries with their own agenda, yet they know how to mingle politically with everyone. The smart ones don’t deal with the Haitians with connections to the U.S. supported regimes. In America, Negroes think everyone is their brother and sister, and that is what Tupac and Notorious B.I.G. found out the hard way.
The people at the center of the Quad Recording Studios ambush were Caribbean. They are at the center of the controversy, despite them saying they were not responsible. We do know that they are Caribbean and previously and admitted involved in crime.Just because someone gets involved in crime does not make them good at it. They will thrive for a few years and go to prison. People will speak of them like they are heroes, but the ones being respected and glorified are not always the respected figures people think they are. Most of the most known people are bullies, creeps, and backward thinkers.
Major corporations thrive from giving people who never had anything a little money. From that small amount of money, they will do anything. Look at most popular artists from any era and look at what they were willing to do for money. The came goes for the criminals in the 1990s. They were willing to enter a world that they knew nothing about: music. The crimes they admitted to made all Caribbean people look bad.
A lot of immigrants can be compromised quite easily, due to global economics. The conversion rates between the U.S. dollar and the money that is transferred to Third World/ Developing/Caribbean nations adds incentives to people with cultural ties to their home country. A regular Caribbean housekeeper can look rich when he goes back to his home country, if he invests wisely with those minimum wage U.S. dollars. American Descendants of Slavery do not have that advantage, but who cares. This is new day, because the truth about tokenism is being addressed. Most international immigrants and their children take a Caucasians word over the word of an intelligent Asiatic male a.k.a. American Descendant of Slavery.
Caribbean people are not revolutionary-minded and independent toward Caucasians in America. They owe the Caucasian for allowing them or their parents entry into America, and a contract saying this exists. Those immigration papers are a contract. American Descendants of Slavery do not have a contract with Caucasians, and are de facto owners of America. Anyone who ignores the debt owed is an ally of Caucasians. The people who robbed Tupac Shakur were slave-minded fools. Their ignorance shifted Hip Hop and placed it in the hands of Caucasians.
All Caribbean and African countries around the world are majority “Black,” but were minority ruled by the invaders and colonizers who probably still have major influence there today. The revolts and revolutions that took place in America between American Descendants of Slavery and Caucasians always saw the “Blacks” at a population disadvantage, yet they were able to fight for enough rights where other groups were able to immigrate and enjoy the prosperity and wealth that was gained from their bloodshed. Immigrants benefited from the Immigration Act of 1965 and only have to deal with minor amounts of discrimination, compared to the institution of Slavery, Convict Leasing, and Jim Crow lynchings. Even today, a caste system keeps male American Descendants of Slavery in a state of surveillance and quiet monitoring. Most do not know what to do about it, yet immigrants are the giving the most intelligent people in America advice. Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace was taking care of his own business, and was attacked for it. Certain people in power allowed him to be killed, and he was caught not paying attention to who was bad for his safety. Other people’s jealousy got him killed.
The common immigrant’s arrogance comes from the fact that they offer advice about what American Descendants of Slavery should do to be a good productive Negro, like immigrants often do. Sometimes, people must stand up and speak out against injustice. Everyone can’t put their heads down and ignore what is happening around us. Now a new plague has shattered the old ideals that were respected standards. While immigrants were quietly saving their pennies and remaining silent, they contributed to allowing LGBT politics to overcome the morals of America.
New York’s world famous DJ Mister Cee said that his family was not supportive of his attraction to transvestites. A transvestite is a male who dresses up like a female. The transvestite is a male and still has a penis. A transsexual is a male who has had his penis surgically removed. He is also still a male, except for the sexual reproduction organ that removed and/ or cut and restructured to look like a vagina. Male chromosomes and DNA can not be changed into female chromosomes and DNA, yet who is championing this propaganda? Everyone who has been brainwashed or intimidated to remain silent about the truth.
The GQ magazine article, The Secret Double Life of Mister Cee, Hip-Hop’s Most Beloved DJ by Zack Baron was published in the February, 2014 issue where
Baron explains how, “… Cee had grown up in a conservative West Indian family, didn’t know how they’d react.” We do not hate Mister Cee, but he is trying to redefine something that is clearly defined in America. Along with LGBT individuals, he is trying to redefine something that is already known: gay behavior is what gay individuals participate in. Transgenderization is an attempt to re-write history and control people, like America is famous for doing. Anyone with a penis or who every had a penis is a male. Mental illness is being defined as “normal.”
Caribbean people are upright and proud. They are honest people, but the behavior of a few shed new light on the breakdown of their moral breakdown. The people who robbed and sold drugs throughout America were ignorant. They got caught and made amateurish moves. People can tell stories of grand moments, but they fell by doing things that Caribbean people do not do. Caribbean people are smart, but we seeing something else. Every group has smart people and dumb people within their nationality. The dumb people of each Caribbean and Latino nationality are now being used to promote certain activity. Within two generations, Caribbean people are justifying and acknowledging homosexual and lesbian activity as being normal.
The arrogance of many immigrants is based on the way they ignorantly address American racism and give advice on succeeding. America is smarter that Caribbean people, which why there are allowed to immigrate here. Only “suitable” people are allowed to enter America. In three generations, Caribbean immigrant children usually become Americanized. Everything their grandparents despise is what their grandchildren are today. In fact, they are two different people. They are able to be Caribbean at home, and American in the public and at their workplace. Where is the spiritual component of Caribbean people, if they are accepting homosexuality? It is being compromised, yet they will offer advice to someone who has been been forever.
If you ever look at a Guyanese home in New York, they decorate the house with elegant fencing and statue ornaments (elephant images, et cetera). The house is nice, but too small for the level of ornamentation that is contains. More importantly, the house is too big for the plot of land that it is sitting on. The home resembles a mini-mini-mini mansion. In a developing country the house would be huge, except for the people who are truly wealthy. Those countries do not have a store like Home Depot where it is so easy to get Chinese made ornaments and decorative fencing. The point is, in New York, the land surrounding the property is too small for that level of ornamentation. Some people would be living in shanty huts in developing countries, if they were not allowed to come to America. Or a one room house. Or something very basic, which makes the worse American city look good. Therefore, nothing bad can be said about their glorious Caucasian savior.
Many Caribbean people feel like anyone not succeeding in America is lazy and not working hard enough, which is the sentiment of many foreigners. The see the money that America makes available, but failed to see the moral standards that their own offspring would be willing to compromise. Many Caribbean immigrants do not care about the rules that apply to revolutionaries and those who paved the way for their own arrival. Are they familiar with the story told in the movie, The Killing Floor (1984) about how European immigrants and American Descendants of Slavery worked together while trying to unionize a Chicago meatpacking plant in the early 1910s, which coincided with the Red Summer riots of 1919.
Caribbean immigrants never had to face those conditions, nor do they get shut out of the U.S. economy like American Descendants of Slavery did. Most immigrants do not stand upright at work, although they do not always cower either. They are there to make their money and go home. They can not relate to what others did, in order for them to get that job. Today, Negroes are known for regularly selling their own people out more than the “White” man ever could.
The poverty in America makes other countries poverty look like a living hell. People complain about America, without knowing how the world’s poverty really looks like. That is a major reason why many Caribbean entertainers and public figures can be convinced to sell their souls for so little. There is little rebellion in them, because why would they bite the hand that fed them? The difference between American Descendants of Slavery and immigrants is based on the fact that immigrants volunteered to come to America. ADOS built America, yet fail to hold America accountable for the institutional caste system that they maintain against their people, especially males.
Others come to America and contribute or take from what was already built on the shoulders of American Descendants of Slavery and are encouraged to dispel institutional racism. It pays for the U.S. to create division among Asiatic people, so they do not appear to be racist like was the case until the early 1970s. When Caribbean immigrant children and Caribbean immigrants were running around NYC selling crack and robbing people, law enforcement agencies knew. It was good in some ways because “Black” people were helping maintain the status quo of White Supremacy. There was a time in America when the Klu Klux Klan rode through “Black” communities at night and fired guns and set fires to businesses and private homes.
When we look at the moral degradation that Caribbean immigrants were willing to be proxies for, we can start with the Crack-cocaine era, and then we can proceed to Hip-Hop. Look at what people are willing to say and do, and then investigate their national origin. A second generation Caribbean immigrant does things their grandparent would never do, morally. Beyond the money, a lot of Caribbean immigrants and their children do not have the historic context of how America operates. We see this is the mistakes they make. We see remnants of the same behavior token Negroes displayed in early to mid-20th century America.
With Quad Recording Studios and the ambush that occurred, the people surrounding Tupac were already offended by Tupac’s verbal disrespect. People were too busy being friends with people who had not paid enough dues to be doing what they were doing. American Descendants of Slavery had allowed Caribbean criminals to either dig out territories in Brooklyn and other areas and do crimes. That should have never been allowed. On the other hand, they were allowed to destroy American communities. That is what makes the Quad Recording Studios ambush so intriguing. As people starting talking, they began to tell a lot about themselves. The more someone investigates, the more they will see. A lot of immigrants will become informants against Americans because they do not feel like they are obligated to be loyal to a group that they do not belong to. Americans try to justify the same behavior sometimes. These are the underlying issues of the book, They Killed Notorious B.I.G.: The New York Event That Triggered the Los Angeles Murder of Biggie Smalls.
Caribbean-Americans and other immigrants were granted the privilege to be in America. American Descendants of Slavery are the true owners and builders of the American system. While most “American Descendants of Slavery” are still suffering trauma from Jim Crow and the caste system racism that still locks them out of the American economic system, immigrants and their children are encouraged to carry the propaganda that Americans are lazy. The Caribbean community watch Tupac Shakur spin out of control. It was Tupac’s fault that he did not know the cultural differences between different Caribbean groups. Jamaicans and Haitians are different. Obviously, some Haitians are good, and others were bad. Some Jamaicans are good, and others are bad. Tupac was too communal and had people around him that were not supposed to be in the middle of the billion dollar music business.
New York City looked bad because they never saw what the backlash of Tupac’s ambush would be. Nothing was said or done to account for what was allowed to happen at Quad Recording Studios. The people around Tupac did not know the significance of the Shakur family. They were too busy running around imitating what they thought it meant to be “Black” thugs and street figures. Law enforcement sat back and laughed the level of ignorance that was being displayed. Hundred million dollar artists were acting like common Negroes. Proud upright Caribbean people were in Manhattan acting like common criminals.
A lot of people who come to America were not upright citizens. Some were criminals who allied with the U.S. government. Some immigrants are government-friendly and can be convinced to cooperate very easily, if they have not conspired with law enforcement in the past. All immigrants come in contact with law enforcement very early. Immigration is handled by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, which is a branch of the Department of Justice.
A lot of people facing deportation become very cooperative with law enforcement agencies, once they face the prospect of going backwards to a developing country. Besides, they can probably tell something about someone they do not like and gain favors with the FBI and the U.S. prison system.
Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace was a great artist. He was not talking bad about Americans and was probably too Americanized for his own good. It is never good to show disrespect like Busta Rhymes, because he is an example of someone who does not really know as much as he thinks he does. The primary culture of each Caribbean island is a colonial one. “Jamaicans” were originally Tainos, Arawaks, Maroons, or whoever they really were before outsiders colonized them. Sometimes, the culture that people think was theirs was imposed on them. Not much can be expected from an entertainer. People like Muhammad Ali and Harry Belafonte came from a different era, when entertainers were more socially aware of themselves and the world around them. Now, entertainers are more controlled and willing to ignore other’s needs.
By the mid-1990s, New York City had gotten out of control of the reach of American Descendants of Slavery. The right hand of White Supremacy because immigrants by proxy. Caribbean people are tools to control American Descendants of Slavery in New York City. Caribbean people are more willing to partner with Caucasians to work against American Descendants of Slavery. The new compact included a lot of Caribbean people who were willing to strictly chase money. That is what Hip Hop became by the mid-1990s. Ignorant consumption is what New York City became. That is why Tupac Shakur could be robbed and shot and no one said anything publicly against the people responsible. People can come to their own conclusions, after they look at the facts. Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace was not worried about anything, because he realized that his talent would take him far. The jealous elements within the Caribbean community. While people claim Caribbean unity, a lot of them do not get along with each other. Some of that resentment cost B.I.G. his reputation.
After 1995, everyone found out that Caribbean, Latin, and people from the continent of Africa could be paid to project immoral images in music, film, and entertainment. They were for sale, like Negroes from the past used to be. U.S. Negro’s souls are still for sale, and were joined by a whole newer crop of sellouts from around the world. No matter how many dollars someone accumulates, they can still be stupid and lame. The Crack-cocaine epidemic nurtured a whole generation of lame people who had fast money, but were as stupid as anyone had every been in modern history. They were quick to be filmed on camera implicating themselves for crimes, while secretly wishing they had the notoriety that Rappers received.
By 1995, stupidity became self-evident. In the past, New York City’s intellectual community was smart at what they knew. Different expertise brought their own skills and knowledge to America. With the evolution and progression of immigrants and first generation immigrants, they may have extended themselves before their knowledge base. For example, the criminals who were around Tupac Shakur did not know how to extend their careers. There was a time when New York City did not allow everyone to participate in the natural order of the streets. At a certain point, fools were allowed to jump into the frey and conduct themselves as though they knew what they were doing or talking about. When these people revealed where their families originated from, we saw where their ignorance came from. Some people from the South jumped into the mix and made critical mistakes, just like people came from the Caribbean and made critical mistakes. There was a time when people sat back and paid attention before they came into the city are started making dumb mistakes that ended up costing everyone.
The crack-cocaine era allows fools to enter the criminal underworld without the actual credentials necessary to be involved in that kind of activity. After the Quad Recording Studios ambush, no one said anything about how ignorant those criminals were for drawing Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace into their criminal actions.
The world started allowing people to mimic reality. Once the 19
By 1995, niggardly content dominated Hip Hop in the mainstream media. Artists were glad to focus on negative activity because of the financial incentives involved. Current violence Hip Hop is a result of what Tupac and Notorious B.I.G. were paid to do. The question is whether the fans demanded it, or were they taught to want negative content? No matter how much of a contribution today’s artists claim to make, they are afraid to speak about certain issues. For example, they will never criticize being gay or lesbian. They will never say it is wrong, because that would jeopardize their earning potential. This proves that most entertainers do not have the capacity to earn adequate funds outside of the integrated system of commerce. We all know that today’s entertainer is not capable of standing up to the U.S. media and legal system by standing on a fact or moral or ethical principle. It makes more sense for them to be quiet and make the money they make, which proves why they are weaker than entertainers in the past like Muhammad Ali and Curt Flood.
Some entertainers try to help their communities, but if they speak to a problem on a macro level, they will be shut down. If they speak to government and institutional policies, they will be forced to display how much they really know. They do not know enough to address issues at that level, although they have the microphone, press media coverage, and spotlight on them. By 1995, first generation immigrant children were openly socializing with homosexuals in America. That would never be accepted in the Caribbean. Some of them were picking up transvestite prostitutes in NYC and claiming they were not gay. They were accepted the doctrine of ignorant materialism. After 1995, it became common for Hip Hop crews to shoot at each other.

This or That? Some Make That Mistake
The people robbed Tupac Shakur at Quad Recording Studios in NYC showed the ignorance of some specific “Black” people. The culprits think they are smart, but were ignorant about the United States and how it operates. If those people are allowed to talk, they will speak as though what they were doing was smart. What they did was shameful and a reflection of what the Civil Rights Act of 1964 allowed. People with no contribution to the building of America are opportunists. What is the purpose of coming to America, except for opportunity? American Descendants of Slavery continue to build America and receive few benefits for it. They received the wisdom of their ancestors to see countless avoidable situations.
Forty years ago, Caribbean-Americans did not participate in degenerate behavior on a large scale. They did some things that others did, but Caribbean-Americans did not stoop to the low level that people in America did. The same can be said for many Negroes after 1865. People had enough pride and moral character to avoid being like the racist stereotypes that U.S. society displayed about “Black” people. Negroes had to disprove the negative stereotypes that compared them to savages and godless animals. As time went on, Negroes were acting ignorantly on public forums and continuously encouraged to act like animals. The same can be said for Caribbean-Americans.
Many Caribbean-Americans not only participate in negative public behavior, but are often manipulated into degrading the image of “Black” people worldwide. Caribbean people are known for being hard workers and disciplined people, but as tension rose from the influx of immigration after 1965, resentment occurred. Rapper Busta Rhymes aka Trevor Smith, has done a few interviews where he spoke about Caribbean and Latino culture starting Hip Hop. DJ Pete Jones came before Kool Herc. Do the history and learn about the early collaborations between Curtis Mayfield and Bob Marley. Smart people are smart people, regardless of nationality. People come to America and think they know where they are because they have earned a few pence. Busta Rhymes said, “The U.S. ain’t got no culture. They sh*t is all our sh*t. A bunch of our sh*t is what makes the U.S. whatever you want to call it. We still don’t know what that culture is for the U.S. But its a mixup of all of our cultures and in the urban community…the
Latino and the West Indian has the greatest influence and we’ve always had, and we always will, and its been that way.” Busta Rhymes was at the Soul Frito Festival around 2014 and they were paying him to perform, so he said this without knowing American history. Caribbean people are not known for being ignorant, but deep seated feelings and emotions overrode Busta Rhymes’ mind. He made similar comments again recently, but that is part of the resentment that exists between some Caribbean and Latino and American Descendants of Slavery. Every rhythm existed in America.
Jazz is an American art form. So is the Blues and Spirituals, Funk Rock and Roll are American art forms. Busta Rhymes’ comments are the type that caused Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” to be killed, because all of this Caribbean unity was absent in the mid-1990s when certain Caribbeans were robbing and extorting Caribbean rappers like Busta Rhymes. That will not be explained, so we made sure it was addressed in They Killed Notorious B.I.G. America allows people so say whatever they want to say, without factual evidence to back up those claims. People in America were rhyming over instrumentals long before the 1960s. Where did the first turntables come from? Which company invented them? The bigger question is, who owns each genre of music?
Since the 1980s, a lot of the criminals that operated in New York were of Caribbean descent. They made some of the biggest mistakes in history and took U.S. society backwards in their behavior. Degenerate Negro and Caribbean criminals because they are a new wave of Klu Klux Klan affiliates by proxy. They do everything a racist system did against American Descendants of Slavery in America through media portrays of ignorance and buffoonery.
These “Blacks” sabotaged inner-city communities. If you look at who leads and promotes negative behavior, many of them are of Caribbean descent. This is not random. A lot of poor people are elevated the same way negative stereotypes were elevated in the past. Fifty years ago, the NAACP would protest people like rap artist Cardi B, Nicki Minaj, and the long list of negative Caribbean artists that are used to push ignorance in America. In the case of Cardi B, ignorance is the agenda, because she is not very talented. People who come from poverty are often willing to present themselves any kind of way for financial prosperity. Sadly, Cardi B is laughed at by Caucasian executives who need to broadcast negative caricatures which prove how lower mental capacities are normal among “Black” people.
The Quad Recording Studios ambush of Tupac Shakur was so shocking because Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace and Tupac Amaru Shakur were such big stars. Anyone who knew Hip Hop back then knew they were witnessing something historic. Fads come and go, but children, teens, and young adults knew that the street music that was coming from the Bronx was monumental. Other parts of New York also instrumental, and young people became the first advocates for the new genre of music that came to be known as “Hip Hop” and Rap music. Parents became educated, because as far as they were concerned, the music their children were playing was noise. Guess what? Each year, Hip Hop culture grew and grew.
In 1994, it was completely self-destructive to rob and shoot Tupac Shakur. Two theories are apparent. Either the ambush of Tupac Shakur was random, or it was planned. Either way, the shooters are known. The streets know who did it. Second, if the people who were accused of shooting Tupac had anything to do with it, that was the beginning of the end.
The point of this book is to state that the people who robbed Tupac Shakur had been allowed to live in anonymity for three decades. No one had to say who they were, but the action was never condemned by those who claim to be men of morals and character. Everyone knows that Tupac Shakur was self-admittedly loud and animated. That did not mean he deserved to be shot for having a big mouth. In the streets, that type of behavior is called “n*gga sh*t.” Behavior that is ignorant and based on a slave-minded mentality. A limited level of intelligence, when it comes to how the world works.
New York City operated on principles. Money has always been the fuel that runs NYC, but they still respected realness. After Tupac Shakur was shot, the “Black” community was silent. The inner-city likes to say that the “White” man and White Supremacy is responsible for all of the ills that “Black” people suffer. Caucasians had nothing to do with the Quad Recording Studios ambush.
The real story unfolds if the people who shot Tupac were Caribbean. There had been a riff between American Descendants of Slavery and Caribbean people. Not always, but tensions existed. The big payback was Tupac being robbed by some Caribbean people, if that is what happened. At the same time, Tupac was friends with many Caribbean people. These are the type of factors that arose when examining what happened to Tupac Shakur at Quad Recording Studios. Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace was not hateful and did not resent American Descendants of Slavery. No one hated Tupac, but whoever shot him did not realize that they were doing something that would bring shame to their families for the rest of their lives. For generations. That is the story that was never told.
Why does it matter? People arrive on the shores of America and think they get to do whatever they want to do, as long as it is not done to Caucasians. No one had the right to ambush Tupac Shakur, and whoever did it ended up indirectly costing Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace his life. Nobody said anything about the perpetrators. The people who ambushed Tupac Shakur ended Hip Hop as we know it. The chain of events got a lot of people killed. The Rap music industry turned their attention away from the East and West Coasts and never looked back.
The people who ambushed Tupac Shakur did not know they were doing something much bigger than the self-destructive act that the ambush represented. No group of people are more slave-like, the “Blacks” when they are attacking their own people. If they were Caribbean, that explains a lot more than what has been said here. Think about this: The Quad Recording Studios ambush suspects/ culprits/ perpetrators shot Assata Shakur’s nephew, godson, etc., who happened to be Tupac Shakur.
Regardless of what people’s nationalities are, two types of people exist. There are ignorant people and conscientious people. Public figures that are supposed to be “aware” of how “Black” life is lived never condemned the people who robbed and shot Tupac Shakur.

More Details Left Out of Story
No one has ever revealed the details behind the Quad Recording Studios ambush before this book came out. In the book, actual names are used. In this blog, we do not say many names, in relation to what happened to Tupac Shakur at Quad Recording Studios. The information is mentioned, but the people who were closely involved never did interviews saying what happened. People’s names are not supposed to be mentioned, unless they want to be mentioned. Public figures can be named. A lot of TV shows chronicle criminal activity, but those shows violate certain principles of confidentiality. In the book, They Killed Notorious B.I.G., the people who have provided their own information elsewhere that is quoted in this book. The information was public record, and was used for clarification purposes in the book. The people who volunteered to tell their own stories have been mentioned in the book. Descriptions of criminality have not been mentioned, because that is not entertainment.
People that knew what happened to Tupac refrained from speaking about it for a few reasons. If the ambush at Quad Studios was random, that is the end of the story. If it was “random,” the robbers had no problem with robbing Tupac and he was friends with some of the most dangerous criminals in New York City. The streets would have known what happened, because the stolen jewelry would have been pawned or sold. It does not have to go that far. People know what happened and were either afraid of people accused of ambushing Tupac, or they were friends with the people accused of robbing Tupac. Most of them were friendly with the accusers.
New York is different. By 1995, Caribbean immigrants and first generation U.S. citizens were taking advantage of doing things citizens were doing. In the past, most immigrants were on their best behavior. The worked, went to school, and stayed out of trouble. By the early 1980s, many Caribbean immigrants were doing bad things. The problem is, they did not get sanctioned to do what they were doing. The crack-cocaine era destroyed the order that once existed. The resentment that came from the Caribbean/ American mutual resentment played itself out in the criminal underworld. Caribbean immigrants never got the memo that they could not do certain things in the United States. No first-generation Jamaican whose parents are American Descendants of Slavery could go to Jamaica and be criminals as though there were no rules in Jamaica within their criminal underworld. Immigrants and first generation U.S. citizens do not know what longstanding United States citizens know, but they sometimes think they do.
Brooklyn has a strong Caribbean influence. A lot of people forgot where they were, once they left the shores of their homelands. Law enforcement agencies loved it, because they could watch immigrants regulate “Negroes” and bring the property value down in Brooklyn. Gentrification did very well in Brooklyn, but it should not have been allowed. Be clear, Caribbean people are not all the same. No one is all the same. The point is, a lot of Caribbean people in the music industry saw what was happening and did not get involved the ignorance that was taking place. They will say what is was, but they won’t volunteer all of the information.
Tupac put himself in situations where bad things could happen. There were some Caribbean people doing crazy things that they had no right to be doing. No one could tell them different without hurting them. The hidden sentiment for many Caribbean people is fact that they don’t respect the United States nor do they respect American Descendants of Slavery. Those who lived and live through the institution of Slavery. America plays a game of using tokens to make it look like this is not operating on system of White Supremacy. Money will still be made, and ADOS is not helplessly crying. What someone from the Caribbean thinks is “money” and what Americans think is money is two different things. People bring underdeveloped standards to a first-world way of life. Most Caribbean people respect intelligence. The are colonized, but not as ignorant as the majority of “Americans.” Certain accusations can not be proven. Looking back, more information has come out that shows what type of people were around Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace and Tupac Shakur. Again, Tupac was not cautious with his security, and who he was associating with. Some people have the right to speculate, yet it is better to argue what can be legally proven. The criminal underworld knows, but Hip Hop was a facsimile of what was happening in the street world.
No matter what someone’s nationality is, some people are smart and some people are ignorant. But when we find a Caribbean individual who gets caught doing a crime, their methods come under scrutiny. Their actions demonstrated that they did not know enough about United States culture.
If the accused people had Tupac ambushed, they made a bad decision. People saw it coming, but could not say anything. They did not need to say anything. A blind man could have seen what might happen to Tupac, based on the people he was around. If the Quad Recording Studios was random, the robbers were bold is robbing people who were so close to known criminals who did business with Sean “Puffy” Combs and Tupac Shakur.
New York City respects intelligence, when it leads to something beneficial. International people do not respect ignorant people in the United States. Tupac had all of that going against him. Although he was from New York, he did not how to move like his associates knew. In the past, New York did not always operate based on who had the money and fame. was leading the way, and was moving wrong the whole time he was in New York City in November, 1994.
The book, “They Killed Notorious B.I.G.” is as close to the streets as it gets. The criminal underworld will not explain everything and they are not supposed to. The reader has to use their own mind. The bottom line is that Caribbean criminals did not like American Descendants of Slavery in the 1990s, if they were being ignorant. All immigrant groups are competitive with each other. All nations around the world are the same way. Religions are the same way. Not in all cases, but in many cases. Years later, people’s criminal actions have come to light. We do not tell the whole story, because that story will never be told in the mainstream media. Thousands of people would be imprisoned, if the criminal activities that went on in the music industry were ever completely revealed. Also, a lot of people cooperate with law enforcement agencies. Remember, people are business people, not criminals. They just play criminals when the cameras are rolling. Besides, why argue about something that happened in the mid-1990s?
The corruption surrounding that era is the issue. A lot of money was at stake, so a lot of mistakes were made. People make the mistake of thinking that the majority of crack-cocaine sellers were thorough. It was one of the most ignorant displays of commerce in modern American history. Pre-Crack Era underworld figures never respected 1980s crack dealers. They just accepted the fact because they had to. Everyone knew that most of the crack-era dudes were going to prison soon. No real skill was involved in crack selling, regardless of how people paint the picture. It was as though the police wore blindfolds, because everyone knew what was going on. Crack-cocaine was a backward charity program. It gave a lot of money to people who were killing their communities and looking ignorant while they were doing it. It wasn’t a secret. Yet, we can watch TV programs and watch crack dealers like they were some cunning criminals. No, they were allowed to do what they were doings. Anyone who saw it and was shown by older hustlers saw the scheme. The people from the Caribbean, except for a few, did not have a clue.
This is the unknown conclusion: By the mid-1990s, many Caribbean-Americans from New York were fully integrated within Hip Hop culture. Go down the list and look at how many rappers are of Caribbean descent. Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace, Busta Rhymes, Slick Rick, DJ Red Alert, KRS-One, Fat Joe, DJ Funkmaster Flex, Just-Ice, Heavy D, and the list goes on. Some of these individuals were fully assimilated into “American” life. Whenever most Caribbean choose to do so, their accents can be concealed instantly, within the United States or abroad. First generation American children of Caribbean descent did not always have heavy Caribbean accents, except at home with their parents. New York City is an international city, so it was all good. The question surrounds the attitude toward United States citizens, namely American Descendants of Slavery. The thing is, a lot of backwards things started being done as though that was thorough behavior. Now, everyone sees what it was. They see the ignorance in robbing Tupac Shakur. It was one of the biggest criminal blunders in United States history. Some United States people were backward, and some Caribbean people were backward. Some United States people are backward, and some Caribbean people are backward. That is the point of “They Killed Notorious B.I.G.” Backward people thought they were cleaver got B.I.G. killed.
The people who allegedly had a problem with Tupac Shakur were Caribbean. Haitian, to be exact. At the same time, Tupac was very cordial with Pras from the group “The Fugees.” So a stereotype can’t be used on either side. The thing is, no matter how ignorant Tupac was acting, he was not supposed to be “taught at lesson” at gunpoint, period. If the ambush was unrelated to the people who had a conflict with Tupac and the ambush was random, that is something else. If Caribbean people had something to do with ambushing Tupac Shakur, they were not qualified nor sanctioned to do what they did. It is an issue when immigrants and children of immigrants take actions that they do not have the cultural DNA to take. They do not have the experience, but they refuse to respect the American Descendants of Slavery as the forebearers of United States culture. No other book would have known to say what was said about Caribbean people recklessly robbing a Black Panther Party comrade. Whether intended or not, the equivalent of ambushing Tupac was like working for the FBI. COINTELPRO targets are a part of history. Afeni Shakur, Assata Shakur, and Mtulu Shakur were enough to keep anyone with knowledge of recent U.S. history should have kept away from Tupac Shakur. That was the factor that makes this book so important. The conversation about people’s origins is a serious topic, but not as unique for New York City. People are taught to not respect American Descendants of Slavery.
A lot of people did not like Tupac Shakur. The ambush was not about him though. Being around Tupac Shakur was like being around someone who is under surveillance. Assata Shakur is still being sought by the State of New Jersey and the F.B.I. right now, and everyone associated with law enforcement in New York City and New Jersey knows exactly how important she was as a cultural symbol of anti-imperialism, anti-colonialism, anti-capitalism, and the myth of White Supremacy. For the record, the Black Panther Party did not hate Caucasians. The book did not connect a conspiracy to Tupac’s ambush or B.I.G.’s murder. The issue is anyone who was attacking Tupac will be discovered because he was being watched by law enforcement. All Hip Hop artists with any level of success was being watched. Anyone who knew what was going on would have avoided him. He was loud sometimes, at least four things could have contributed to the Quad Recording Studios ambush…or it was a random event. If random, the people who did it will never be respected. Their children’s children will not be respected, because of who Assata was to the world. It might go over people’s heads, but robbing Tupac Shakur was like robbing Malcolm X. No, Tupac was not like Malcolm X, but his immediate family was an extension of Malcolm X’s legacy. So the people who had to live a lie and hide the fact that they shot Malcolm is how the people who shot Tupac will been seen in history. They will always be called traitors, and people who knew them said very little. Then, that silence helped set the tone for Christopher Wallace’s murder. The book, “They Killed “Notorious B.I.G.” was not written to explain all of this in a blatant way. The book is a tribute to Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace and the intellect that Brooklyn represents. All of NYC actually. The East Coast is known for intelligence. The Crack-Cocaine era took the whole United States down a notch.
Everyone knew his family was in the Black Panthers, but it wasn’t seen like it is now. People were not knowing the whole story, expect people in the prison system. Then, people justified what happened. Some explaining was required. How could such a militant city allow such a ignorant action? The police would not care, which made the Quad Recording Studios robbers safe.
Criminality is wrong. With the Black Panther Party, the Black Liberation Army and other radical organizations, the people being argued where government officials and the public policies that controlled the country. By 1994, Negro and Caribbean criminals were glorified. That should tell us what all of this means. 2+2=4. Simple math. When Negro and Caribbean criminals infiltrated the Hip Hop music industry, they ruined it and got Tupac Shakur and Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace killed. People were jealous of Notorious B.I.G. and acted recklessly around him. Rap music was so ignorant in the 1990s, everyone is NYC saw what was going to happen already. An aura of greed and negativity surrounded the New York music industry and it never recovered. Look into the national backgrounds of the most ignorant acts in Hip Hop music. People come to America and talk like they are a part of the nation’s original history. In other words, the low level behavior is still being promoted. Tupac Shakur should have known better. We see why others do not. In the places they came from, they would have never had a chance to make the money they made. Souls are for sale at a slightly higher price in America.

The Full Story of 1990s Hip Hop in New York City Has Never Been Explained
Many immigrants and first-generation Americans saw the social problems that existed in the United States, but may not always know what they were seeing. Americans are generally called “lazy” by many people from around the world. At another level, America can be economically repressive at times. The burning of Black Wall Street was an institutional response, and not just a historical event. Most immigrants will not admit this because they know very little about the United States.
Another point is this: within one generation, many children of immigrants picked up some of the same bad habits that “Americans” were chastised for having.
Caribbean immigrants are known for working hard, attending college or trade school, and doing their best to thrive in America. As a matter of fact, immigrants are often model citizens and can not be categorized as criminals….except for the ones what everyone knows about that did some shameful things in the Caribbean and especially in America. Something began to change. The 1980s began to present a different aspect of the Caribbean in New York City. There is a difference between Southern and “country.” Calling someone “country” is equal to calling them “locals.” These are the ignorant people. A lot of people who were running around New York and doing ignorant things were “country.” Locals.
We, Slight Sleep Media, would not allow the book “They Killed Notorious B.I.G.” to emphasize people’s criminal activity. Unsubstantiated allegations are not solid journalism. Ethnicity applies to the Tupac Shakur ambush. The people who knew Tupac Shakur might be harmed did not dislike him, but they also did not shield him from danger like they could have done. He did not do anything violent to deserve being ambushed and shot. Some people would beg to differ, because Tupac chose to spend time with alleged criminals.
By the 1980s, many first generation immigrants started to adopt bad habits. Specifically, Brooklyn became a ruthless criminal environment in the crack era.
Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace was a first generation American of Jamaican descent. Unfortunately, many young men adopt U.S. imagery and become “Americanized.” They adopt negative imagery that is unique to American Descendants of Slavery. Contrary to what some may think, American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS) have a unique culture, which defines areas of art, music, and science. Degenerate behavior is stereotypically associated with inner-city imagery and people gravitate toward it.
Multiple ethnicities terrorized New York City in the mid-1980s and 1990s. When moving to another country, people are supposed to be on their best behavior. Anyone who has parents that immigrated from another country is not supposed to function as though they are entitled to do as they please in America. That is how people from other countries are supposed to function in the U.S., but they don’t because citizenship here is equal. Whether someone has been in American 500 years or 5 years, they have the same citizenship status and can be disrespectful to those who have been in America longer. That is the attitude taken when Tupac Shakur was ambushed. People knew who he was, but did not care enough to not try to ambush and rob him. That moment proved how far New York City had fallen. By then, Caribbean-Americans had enough influence in New York to do what they wanted to do to American Descendants of Slavery and get away with it. That was something the State of New York allowed, because American Descendants of Slavery are a permanent underclass, who are subject to proxy discipline and disrespect. It is not racism, because they are all “Blacks.” They are not all the same, and that is the point of “They Killed Notorious B.I.G.”
There is no legal proof of who ambushed Tupac Shakur at Quad Recording Studios in New York City. The streets know, but the media never did an in-depth investigation of what happened and who the people were who terrorized New York City at that time. Know why? A lot of people became proxy opposition. Caribbean criminal immigrants were allowed to help destroy the fabric of New York City, along with longstanding American citizens. A lot of illegal immigrants came to America from the Caribbean and did crimes that we will not mention here. By 1995, criminals from Brooklyn entered the Hip Hop music industry and sought to put their foot on the neck of the music industry and the Hip Hop, R&B, and Caribbean artists. The book, “They Killed Notorious B.I.G.” reads different when you know these facts. People neglected Notorious B.I.G. and allowed him to be caught in the middle of a situation that was bigger than him.
After Tupac was ambushed, nothing was done to verbally address the situation. A few interviews addressed the situation, but the ambush was accepted by the city. In fact, Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace was blamed. Not because he knew, but because of the criminal dragnet that was allowed to operate in New York City at that time. Law enforcement knew, but did stop them.
Tupac Shakur literally walked right into the Quad Recording Studios ambush, because he had the means to avoid a losing confrontation with the people associated with being responsible for the ambush. He never needed fall into the trap of inner-city criminals, if he functioned like he was supposed to do.
Law enforcement saw people from the Caribbean exercise ruthlessness, but it was allowed because they started to control and regulate American Descendants of Slavery like the KKK and racist Caucasians once did.
Caribbeans are not “Black,” primarily. They identify with their own country first. A lot of Caribbean criminals thought they were highly skilled at crime, without realizing they were living on borrowed time and were allowed to destroy Brooklyn. All they were doing were helping reduce the price of real estate, as urban planning prepared the area for the gentrification that started taking place in the early 2000s.
Downtown Brooklyn started changing around 1997. The plans were drawn, and people were investing quietly as property values plunged by the 1980s. Criminals could be thanked for what they did through shootings, armed-robberies, and crack-cocaine culture.
“They Killed Notorious B.I.G.” is a tribute to Christopher Wallace. The book was not designed to implicate people, because the Quad Recording Studios case is closed and can stay that way. The statute of limitations applies to that New York City ambush of Tupac Shakur. The issue was a moral one. Tupac was allegedly verbally abrasive and loud sometimes, when addressing people he should not have been around in the first place. That is is common knowledge. The people who ambushed him made a mistake too.
By 1995, many first-generation Caribbean-Americans were fully integrated. They could code switch between being Caribbean like their parents, or American like people outside of their households. Tupac Shakur did not know that skin hue does not override all cultural differences. When American Descendants of Slavery interact, their common history tells many stories. Caribbean-Americans do not have the same allegiance with all American Descendants of Slavery. They do respect American Descendants of Slavery that are self-aware. The point is, Tupac Shakur did not know enough about Haitians and other Caribbean people to be around them like he was. He did not know enough about Jamaicans to be around them either. These issues factor into the Quad Recording Studios ambush. In present day America, an American Descendant of Slavery can be paid by an immigrant to harm another American Descendant of Slavery. That is a reason why Caribbean and African immigrants are able to control segments of inner-cities. That could not have at that level, prior to 1965. There were always powerful Caribbean people operating among American Descendants of Slavery in the United States, but the tone was different. By 1994, something had changed.
A Caribbean-American can be an informant or saboteur against an American Descendant of Slavery and justify that act by citing their cultural differences. For the sake of fairness, Negroes were used to sabotage Marcus Garvey’s efforts in New York City. Another informant who plotted against Garvey was a Jamaican. Their were informants around the New York City music industry in the mid-1990s. The actions Tupac was making were reckless and careless. The situation B.I.G. was in was risky from the beginning, because of people he was around. Outside of Tupac, B.I.G. was in a risky situation. Criminals began to transition into the Hip Hop music industry and were not behind the scenes anymore.
The more someone looks into the people who were around Tupac and B.I.G., the clearer the situation will become. When large sums of money and power are involved, negativity works itself into situations and people’s lives.
If someone reads “They Killed Notorious B.I.G.” twice, they will see ideas that they did not see at first. Here is the moral of the story. In the beginning, Caribbean immigrants were no-nonsense people and they still are. As the 1980s deteriorated inner-city communities, people some people began to lower their standards. Many first-generation immigrants, but often second-generation Americans started indulging in crime like never before. That point is well established.
The top sector of Caribbean-Americans, especially those located in New York City are powerful and influence a lot of what happens in the “Black” community. With their current power, some missteps have been made. The Quad Recording Studios ambush of Tupac Shakur was an indicator of what Caribbean-Americans could do in America. Major people who are categorized as “Black” are of Caribbean descent. The best decisions were not made, in terms of Hip Hop leadership. Allowing Tupac Shakur to be ambushed was a poor decision. Fast-forward to 2020, and a lot of the decisions being cosigned by the Caribbean-American community have been questionable. The Gold standard of how non-Caucasian people are supposed to present themselves in the media is based on the legendary Maxine Powell and Motown Records. She taught men and women about sophistication, manners, and proper etiquette. Today, the U.S. media is beginning to resemble the type of behavior associated with hedonism and the Roman Empire. A lot of cultural backwardness is being promoted in U.S. society and a lot of that was promoted during the materialistic 1990s in Hip Hop.

Brooklyn’s Population Dynamics
The book, “They Killed Notorious B.I.G.” was published on June 8, 2021. The president of Haiti was killed on July 7, 2021. Few people saw the correlation between what was written about New York City’s ethnic makeup. In the 1970s, New York City was different. Post-1965 immigration changed the way the city operated. Especially Brooklyn. So this book might not entertainment readers like an episode of a Hip Hop reality television show, unless they focus on learning and literacy, and entertainment combined.
No one every publicly addressed what happened at Quad Recording Studios in New York back in 1994. It does not matter anymore. Slight Sleep Media published this book out and addressed the people who caused Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace to get caught in the middle of music industry politics.
Anyone who studies and reads between the lies will know the answer.

Uncensored Information is Here
The information contained in this blog refers to the book, “They Killed Notorious B.I.G.” It was difficult to say everything openly in the book, because it is being sold on mainstream platforms. Most publishers avoid controversial information. We made sure to focus on the facts about the Quad Recording Studios ambush. This is the first book to focus on the ambush, so we had to respectful of not reliving the past. The crime was never solved and the statute of limitations has “run out.”.
The in-depth information will be here. The Quad Recording Studios ambush of Tupac Shakur is a not a case that needs to be solved. That is not the author’s intention. The statutes of limitations is over and no one can be charged with that crime. They should not be charged. The ambush assailants did something worse. They cursed their families throughout infinity. Tupac Shakur was the child of known Black Power Movement members. Black Panther Party members. Black Liberation Army members. It is a violation to rob someone like Tupac, based on him being “Black,” because so-called “Black” people ambushed him. Gangsters and criminals recognized the importance of the fight against racism and White Supremacy. Militant groups and “Black” gangsters clashed, philosophically, but they both agreed that the U.S. system was oppressive. That is why Gangsters and Black Power Movement militants respectfully stayed away from each other whenever possible.
The people who were responsible for ambushing Tupac Shakur were supposedly ” The question became, “Who were they to be disciplining Tupac Shakur?” If non-American Descendants of Slavery were responsible for the disciplining,” that was problematic. They was the fall of New York City were non-Americans were “disciplining” Americans. Their families did not have enough time on this soil to be functioning like they were functioning. People come to America and disregard the People who built the country that they came to in the first placed. The colonized mind-state that most immigrants are taught to believe is that the “Black” race is lazy. That is negative propaganda, because American Descendants of Slavery built the United States into what it is. Not just through physical labor, but also through intellect, scientific knowledge, and experience. ADOS remains the heart and soul of America.
The people who suddenly think they can take the reigns and lead America and the ones making the biggest mistakes. For example, Barack Obama was not qualified to speak for American Descendants of Slavery, but their longstanding inferiority complexes caused them to believe that a biracial person, Barack Obama, could lead American Descendants of Slavery to a better place. Recently, Obama said the U.S. governmental system prevented him from doing better for “Blacks,” which is a untrue. He was put in position by those who controlled him, and the appointments he made reflected that fact. If he was a great leader, he would have brought value to America by utilizing the talents of American Descendants of Slavery. His speeches would have been monumental solutions, and not just oratory decorations that made people feel good temporarily. In other words, Barack Obama was glorified preacher, which is all people demanded of him. He could not do more than that, because he is not smart enough. He has a couple college degrees, and talks a good talk, but is not not great. These are conversations that we did not elaborate in the book, and anyone who looks past the smoothness and studies Obama’s policies will see that he never did anything significant for ADOS. Smart people never expected anything, because they already knew who he was. We did not want to get the book banned from marketplace platforms for speaking too deeply about race or politics.
Everyone involved in the Quad Recording Studios ambush claimed ignorance. People knew what happened and never publicly addressed the action as being treasonous. In the 1980s, a number of Caribbean criminals were allowed to do what they wanted to do in NYC. Could a group of American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS) migrate to a Caribbean country and do what Caribbean immigrants or first generation immigrants were allowed to do in New York? No! Never! That means, “native” Black Americans were either scared, or reluctant to do anything. They were not weak, but knew there was a hidden force behind certain people. Caribbean people were allowed to terrorize American Descendants of Slavery. Caucasians do not regularly hurl rocks and slurs at American Descendants of Slavery, like when they called them “niggers” in countless American neighborhoods like they did until the 1970s, when those Caucasians to the suburbs.
The U.S. started tolerating immigrants who brought terror through violence and crack cocaine to cities like New York starting with the crack-cocaine era of the 1980s. The names are well-known, so we do not have to repeat them here. The irony was the fact that Caribbean-Americans are known for being hard-working and educated. There bad ones were allowed to do crimes that American Descendants would never be allowed to do to each other. Readers must ask themselves why. They must ask themselves who specific people really were, and not just who they appeared to be.
In the criminal underworld, the only time someone completely a traitor alone is when they are closely linked to law enforcement. No one was afraid of these people to the point where the could do what they were doing.
This is where we must avoid speculation. Certain people have been found to have cooperated with law enforcement, yet remained criminals. Others have been called criminals by respected figures in the criminal underworld. Let’s stick to the facts that we can easily prove. First, let us say that the more someone digs for information about a number of Caribbean people that were in the music industry in the 1990s, the more dirt they will find about them. Factual information about cooperation. Paperwork does not exist for everyone. Watch their actions closer than any paperwork that does not exist.
The new method of law enforcement cooperation is appearances on TV shows were alleged criminals talk about crime. That is a form or police education and a violation of omertà. The code of silence. People come to America and think they are smarter than they really were. With each statement they make in the media, the more they show that they are not that smart.
This book, “They Killed Notorious B.I.G.” was the first book to formally address the Quad Recording Studios ambush. In order to know what is going on, one has to read between the lines. The reader must do additional research, because no all information is easily to attain. The breakthrough of the book is use explaining the connection between law enforcement agencies and current television programming. If a medical TV show has doctors on the show, they hire a real doctor to explain how certain information is supposed to be portrayed. The same goes for crime-related TV shows. Police work for those TV shows, yet the most ruthless criminals are working for these TV shows. No, they have changed. Which is fine, if they is what they are doing. In the so-called Black community, people do not come to grips with the fact fact that talking to random TV hosts about crime is something informants do. A thorough criminal will never do an interview. They align more with crime, than they do with outsiders, whether they are active or not. The criminal celebrity is a new age informant, because they inform the non-criminal world about the inner-workings of crime. That is a violation.
Journalists never did an in-depth investigation about the people surrounding the Quad Recording Studios ambush. Had 20/20, Inside Edition, 60 minutes, etc done that, they would have known what happened. The “nephew” of Assata Shakur was robbed and no major journalistic investigation was done. The lead defendant of the “Panther 21 Conspiracy Trial,” Afeni Shakur, watched her son be targeted and no major outcry was shown. Yes, Tupac was often reckless, but when a Kennedy, Trump, or Biden offspring gets in trouble, people attribute those issues to youthfulness or the pressures of being a prominent figure’s relative.
The Quad Recording Studios ambush said a lot. Today, the people doing a lot of talking on media platforms proved that they were not obligated to the code of silence. Major law enforcement agencies in America have a Hollywood Liaison’s Office. These are formal communication channels between law enforcement and media platforms, especially major television networks. That hardened criminal does not know that he is sharing information with anyone who decides to watch. Police included.
On the other hand, Tupac Shakur endangered Notorious B.I.G.’s life by being around so many questionable characters. We always want to “keep it real,” but legal success and criminality do not mix. Tupac made critical mistakes and nothing could be done, because he did not know how to handle specific situation. Points like these are what the book represents.
Tupac was careless in more than one situation. That is a reason why the streets had to accept the ambush and shooting.
In terms of Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace, his rise to fame shocked the East Coast. No one knew he would be that successful. Each remixed song was better than the original. By mid-1995, Biggie Smalls was the top emcee in New York City. No question. He outgrew Bad Boy Entertainment and the other business people that he was around, and they failed to protect him. In a PBS Frontline documentary titled, “Don King, Unauthorized,” the late legendary singer, songwriter, and performer Lloyd Price told correspondent Jack Newfield, “My experience in show business is that you could never let the artist be bigger than the record company, so I would tell Don, you can’t let the fighters be bigger than Don King.” Although the contractually obligated Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace quickly rose above the capabilities of what Bad Boy Entertainment could do for his career, Combs also made sure to raise his own celebrity profile on the shoulders of Notorious B.I.G.’s talent. Bad Boy Entertainment’s limitations and liabilities ended up costing Christopher Wallace his life. Combs is not to be blamed, because money, power, and fame always bring unexpected costs.
Hopefully, you will gain clarity from the explanations we have provided in this blog. This is bonus content, that supports the book, “They Killed Notorious B.I.G.” These are not definitive conclusions. Some of what is said debatable. Decide what is true, after doing additional research. Our position is that no other book had made a formal statement about this event.

New Beginning
This book signals the end of an era. For over two decades, inner-city criminals have been chronicled in street DVDs, TV, films, and music. Criminals were never supposed to become celebrities in the mainstream media. They were not supposed to be seen on any media platforms. People have said a lot, but were never able to explain how a Black Power Movement’s child was ambushed in New York City. People in Los Angeles know exactly who killed Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace. There are people who know. Criminals know a lot of things, but it will never reach the ears of certain people. Especially not East Coast people.
This is where we will post some bonus information about the book, “They Killed Notorious B.I.G.: The East Coast Event That Triggered The Los Angeles Murder of Biggie Smalls.” We could not place everything in the book, so we will add some of that information here. We will explain a few points here that are in the book, but not covered in detail.
This the first book that has ever focused on the Quad Recording Studios ambush. It was mentioned in the movie “Notorious” (2009). It was shown in the Tupac Shakur film “All Eyes On Me.” (2017). People knew what happened, but never discussed the details in public. Lies get told in public, but the truth about what happened on November 30, 1994. After a while, it did not matter because Tupac and Biggie Smalls were killed. Our point is to focus on the Quad Recording Studios ambush and how it was never highlighted back then. Why?
The book “They Killed Notorious B.I.G.” presents the backdrop so you can come to your own conclusion. People tend to speculate, and they can not prove statements that they make. We are not detectives and our aim to not to point to anyone. It does not make a difference what happened, in terms of what can not be reversed. Lives were lost and people were hurt. We do know that criminals were responsible for the ambush. Honestly, criminal activity can not be talked about, and that is the problem today. A lot of so-called thorough dudes are doing a lot of talking about criminal activity. That violates the “Code of Silence.” Even law enforcement agents don’t do a lot of talking, when it comes to the “Blue Shield,” a/k/a “The Blue Wall” of silence. Yet, criminals are offering their opinions about crime. That is a trait of crack-cocaine era criminals.
People who promote criminal conversations are unknowingly recruiting informants and C.I.’s and don’t know it. Some know. Police are always hiring, so they are always talking about crime.
New York City is an intellectual city. The East Coast is intelligent, but around 1994, stupidity became more popular in Hip Hop, and that is the mentality where Rap music has been since the mid-1990s.

Truth May Never Be Known
Why was Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace killed in Los Angeles, California on March 9, 1997? There are a few explanations to that question. One reason is the ambush, robbery, and shooting of Tupac Shakur at Quad Recording Studios in New York City on November 30, 1994. Shakur publicly blamed Sean “Puffy” Combs and Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace for concealing a robbery plot against him before he was actually ambushed by unknown assailants that night. Although Combs and Wallace said they had no knowledge about what was going to happen to Shakur. Soon afterwards, a major conflict happened. Some people called it the East Coast vs. West Coast Rap music War.
Where were you in the mid-1990s when a new era of Hip Hop music was just beginning to happen? The West Coast Hip Hop community started rising to national prominence in late 1992. Not long after that wave began, a young man known as Biggie Smalls started gaining attention throughout the five boroughs of New York, which announced the re-emergence of Brooklyn, New York on the Hip Hop music industry map.
New York City is legendary for being a major city that other cities are measured by. The origin of Hip Hop music is the Bronx, New York, yet the others borough of New York also contributed to the growth of one of the greatest musical creations that the world has ever known. Soon, other parts of the United States added their uniqueness to the art form known as Hip Hop.
Christopher “Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace, a/k/a Biggie Smalls stunned New York City’s rap music community in late 1994. Before then, he had appeared on various singles and remixes, but it was his 1994 solo album debut “Ready to Die” that launched him into the national spotlight. The RIAA Gold-certified single, “Juicy” propelled Notorious B.I.G. to the top of the national Hip Hop music charts in August of 1994.
