Snoop Dogg spins a ‘wild’ yarn about a 1990s encounter between 2Pac and Nas.
- Outlawz’s Young Noble claims Snoop added some embellishments to his story.
- Nas reportedly maintained his cool demeanor during the Bryant Park meeting.
- Snoop wasn’t present at the park, possibly leading to his exaggerated tale.
- Both Nas and 2Pac eventually smoothed over their differences.
Snoop Dogg recently shared a story about a tense encounter between 2Pac and Nas during the 1990s, which has sparked some controversy. According to Young Noble from the Outlawz, Snoop’s version of events seemed to include a few dramatic liberties. He pointed out how various wild stories have emerged over time, but the truth was rather straightforward.
In an interview, Young Noble expressed his displeasure with the way the story has evolved, noting that Nas approached 2Pac with confidence and calmness in a group setting. Noble emphasized that Nas was composed and didn’t falter, painting a picture of a respectful exchange rather than a tense standoff.
Young Noble also mentioned that there were claims from Nas’s camp about a potential altercation, but he dismissed those as exaggerations. Instead, he remembered the night as one where 2Pac’s crew, heavily outnumbering Nas’s team, showed the strength of numbers rather than any real threat or conflict.
Snoop Dogg’s version hinted at Nas having the upper hand and surrounding 2Pac, but Young Noble attributed this to Snoop’s late arrival at the scene. He speculated that Snoop might not have seen the full picture, thus leading to his inaccurate account of the encounter.
Interestingly, Nas himself commented on the situation, stating he’s aware of Snoop’s misinterpretation. He recounted how there was tension in the air, but when he encountered 2Pac, they exchanged pleasantries and kept their interaction brief due to the circumstances.
Years later, Nas expressed that both he and 2Pac had matured past the rumors and had a deep conversation about their misunderstandings. Nas recalled that they even planned to squash any differences in Las Vegas and affirmed they wanted to remain allies.
Nas clarified he had no hard feelings towards 2Pac regarding the rumored diss track, “The Message.” He considered it a general track without specific targets, and they came to realize their unity was more important than any petty squabbles.
Ultimately, the legendary artists moved beyond past tensions, choosing peace and camaraderie over conflict.
