Yesterday, a video went viral of NYC radio personality and DJ Funk Flex going in on Tupac and his fans during an IG Live session, and Hip Hop fans weren't happy about it.
Flex described quite passionately how Tupac actually shot himself first at Quad Studios in 1994, even saying "You 'Pac fans always talkin' that talk!"

Now, coast wars aside, there's no denying the impact 'Pac has on the culture and the genre, and fans of his are all too aware of this. Further, no one really knows what went on at Quad Studios when the West Coast legend was, indeed, struck by multiple bullets, except for the people who were there that day. Which is where T.I. comes in...
The ATL icon responded to Flex's comments via IG, saying "Yo @funkflex Respectfully Bruh... on G-Code.... regardless of what YOU THINK the validity of your statement is, I was taught never to speak down on a dead man. Considering they ain't here to speak up for themselves. When he was alive, you was on da air then.... that was the time to address this. NOT HERE, NOT NOW, NOT LIKE THIS!!! And I'd say the same to a n***a from LA speaking on BIG."

We hear you, T.I.!
Salute.
