Tupac Shakur, the legendary rapper behind hits like “California Love” and “Changes,” continues to captivate the hearts of his fans, including many in Alabama. For those who have followed his career and tragic death, the case surrounding his murder has long been shrouded in mystery, sparking endless speculation. Now, nearly three decades after 2Pac was gunned down on September 7, 1996, his family has taken a significant step by hiring high-profile attorney Alex Spiro and a team of investigators to reexamine the case, according to All Hip Hop News.
At the center of this new investigation is an attempt to determine whether there is any link between Hip-Hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs and the murder. Long suspected by some of having a role in 2Pac’s untimely demise, Diddy’s name has surfaced again in connection with new revelations. A break in the case came in September 2023 when Keefe D, a known figure in the West Coast-East Coast rap rivalry, was arrested and charged in relation to the killing. Keefe D has previously made explosive claims that Diddy offered $1 million for a hit on 2Pac, an accusation that has reignited old conspiracy theories.
