A few weeks ago, Mopreme Shakur, Tupac Shakur’s brother, talked about how the Shakur family and Sean “Diddy” Combs don’t get along. According to Mopreme, Diddy’s family has a strong dislike for him because of what happened with Tupac’s death and how they think Diddy managed it.
Mopreme says the anger started when Tupac was shot several times in 1994. At the time, Shakur thought that Diddy, who was his friend and work partner at the time, knew about the attack before it happened. When Tupac was shot and killed in 1996, this opinion grew because Shakur’s family said Diddy didn’t protect him or give him enough security.
Mopreme said that Diddy’s family is mad at him because they think he killed Tupac or knew about it ahead of time. At first, Shakur’s mother, Afeni, didn’t have a problem with Diddy. But after she started looking into her son’s death more, she changed her mind. Mopreme said that the family even told Diddy what they thought, but they didn’t think he was telling the truth.
Mopreme made it clear that the Shakur family doesn’t like Diddy for any reason, not just because of their personal experiences with him.
They also think that he represents how hip-hop is being used and commercialized, which Tupac strongly resisted. Mopreme says that Tupac thought Diddy was part of the business machine that ignored the real spirit of the genre to make money.
As an end, Mopreme Shakur explained why the Shakur family doesn’t like Diddy. The family thinks that Diddy may have been involved or knew about the terrible events before they happened because of their concerns about Tupac’s shooting and following murder.
