The Black Hand: An Organized Crime History Podcast

On Episode 56, we delve into the story of gangland involvement in the lives and murders of both Tupac Shakur and the Notorious B.I.G., we'll talk about their backgrounds, and how they both were put in a position to headline the most notorious rap feud of all time, their rise to the top, that would see Tupac turn into somewhat of a wannabe gangster, catching charges left and right, while hanging with well known New York gangsters, as Biggie joined up with Sean Combs and Bad Boy records, making a name for himself, as well as their eventual downfall, that would see both men gunned down in similar drive by shootings, that became 2 of the most notorious pop culture murders of the 20th century, and though they remain unsolved, countless theories have come up surrounding the killings, many of which have links to organized crime. I hope everyone enjoys today's show and tunes back in next week for Episode 57.
