Tupac, was not really from the West Coast because he did not move there until around his 17th birthday. He was born in Harlem and raised in Maryland. His mother and others in his family were very involved in the Black Panthers, so he grew up in a very idealistic home. He grew up studying the arts, learning Ballet and performing Shakespeare. This is hardly the M.O. of a gangster thug from South Central. Snoop and Dre were already working together before Tupac came on the seen. Snoop was a Crip and soon after getting out of jail was helped by Dre in producing his work. Snoop having been a Crip was a good soldier and loyal to Dre. Tupac, was going out of his way to dis Dr. DRE on many occasions calling him homosexual (Called him Fruity as Alize the drink), a lazy producer and a poor friend to Snoop. Tupac had a big mouth and ego and was very idealistic about how the world should be. He believed himself to be a true poet and that he had a message to give to the world. Unfortunately, Dr. Dre did fit into his notion of how things should be and was trying to create a wedge between the Dre and Snoop using manipulation questioning Dre's integrity and sexual orientation. Dre may be Bisexual. The group World Class Wrecking Crew was somewhat androgynous and gay looking and sounding (Normal for 80's groups; i.e Prince and the New Revolution). Check out their video on You Tube "Surgery." Tupac got between two loyal friends and their making money together and got "taken out" by either Dre, Snoop or Both. Soon after Tupac's Death, Dre signed Snoop to his label and the rest is history.
