This
letter was written to Biggie's family after he died by
Mutulu Shakur,
THE
SHAKUR FAMILY EXTENDS OUR SYMPATHIES TO MS. WALLACE,
SISTER FAITH AND BROTHER BIGGIE'S SON AND DAUGHTER
To
Brother Biggie's Family; We believe the lost of Biggie
and Tupac will have a tremendous impact on our younger
generation. When all the facts are received and
analyzed, it will show through all the negative and
false accusations and unprincipled actions in the
public which is where our young draws its influence,
Brother Biggie acted in a principle way toward our son
and his public actions were principled by their very
nature which was true to the life game in which he
lived.
Our
family has not come to any final conclusion as to who
killed our son, Tupac. Nor, why he was killed. His
murder and the death of Yafeu "Kadafi" Fula
son of Yaasmyn Fula and P.O.W. SEKOU ODINGA a month
after Tupac, and the senseless murder of Javana Thomas
the daughter of Freedom Fighter Innie Thomas and the
late B.L.A commander JOHN THOMAS has our family and
extended family in constant grief as well as searching
for the truth in all matters. It has always been our
position that with no investigation, no right to speak
or act. We are continuing our investigation as to
determining the truth of all actions and the matters
associated with reasons; thereby determing our
actions.
We
do know that Brother Biggie was a part of an industry
that has been under attack from the highest form of
government officials. They have targeted Tupac, Sister
Souljah, Ice T, Ice Cube, and Snoop Dogg to just name
a few. The object of this attack reportedly was the
lyrics' contents and the connection to crime.
"If" this is/was the only case why would
devil worshippers(music and artist) not be hounded out
also? Since they openly worship the devil in a
so-called, God fearing country. (Their music and
profane religion outright denounces the government
while preaching mayhem destructions and even death to
their parents, government and even nonbelievers in
their philosophical satanism).
Yes,
we must take responsibility for our own actions. We
must acknowledge that we have powers to shape minds
and souls. Tupac, Biggie and Yafeu all could bring us
closer to the real deal or turn us in upon ourselves.
That power is not easy to comprehend when your only
goal is to "come up". The struggle of saving
and speaking for has been a tremendous task for most
if not all leaders. But, this government and those who
have profitted from the music culture of Black people;
really know "power" and how to utilize it
both internally and externally. Their goal has been
long range and very specific to their economical
survival and political agenda.
Wheras
our loved ones; our rappers, wanted to explain their
pain and indentify from where they came, and describe
their present life and at times asked us to hope for a
better tomorrow, if all things were fair. If our
familys'(SHAKURS) lack of response to rumors and
allegations contributed to any confusion as to what
principle we stand on; let it be known and clear!! We
do not believe in COINCIDENCES. We believe history has
demonstrated that the murders of Black people(young
& old) who can have a profound impact; those who
refuse to "Bos Down", even if they
themselves are not clear on the reasons why, have and
will be targeted by the government at its highest
level. These murders have historically proven over
time to have the hand of government secret agents or
the stimulation by the government for negative
responses and was initiated by these agents working on
behalf of the government and their secret agendas.
We
mourn Brother Biggie and Tupac with the rest of the
Black Nation because they(our son, brother, father and
leader in their own rights) have clearly been victims
of a set of circumstances which was implemnted outside
of their control and/or ability to influence. While I
disagree with the method of discussing issues of our
internal contradictions in the entertainment media.
Tupac in his Makaveli record clearly changed his
wrongful view of who shot him and who was heading it
in New York, and why? Thats' not to say that we know
the Makaveli allegations is correct, only that any
"Fan" of Tupacs' would surely have known
that Tupac revised his wrongful(stance) against
Biggies' involvement concerning his shooting in New
York. And he wanted his "Fans" to know it.
It
is common knowlege that Brother Biggie was under
surveillance by the FBI or other goverment agents. And
his every movement was reportedly being watched
concerning a parole or possible parole violation. How
come those agents did not protect him, or at least
apprehend or pursue the people who did the
shooting?(and, the same must be said, for my son Tupac).
The tactics by law enforcement agencies in the past
have been to arrest these high profile artist on gun
violations. Leaving them in a "catch 22"
situation to violate parole by defending themselves.
Or leaving themselves defenseless making them easy
prey for a would be assassin and stick-up kid. Surely,
the FBI was at the party.
AFENI
and I have never supported a Crip vs Blood feud as
presented by the Las Vegas Police concerning our son's
assassination. And, I have always pushed the
"Codes of the Thug Life". Which demands that
the various crews select representatives and sit down
as the peace table and talk about any disputes and
misunderstanding that falls between them. Our life is
committed to our people, even with the death our our
own Tupac and Yaki.(They are not the only martyrs of
our family killed under questionable circumstances,
and probably won't be the last. Though I pray
otherwise). If we, on the East Coast and the West
Coast or the Crips and Bloods(as well as other rival
Black Gangs and Street Organizations) began to kill
each other(ourselves) over or, for unclear reasons in
revenge for matters we are not sure of, we will be
killing good potential warriors, who will be needed
greatly in the face of OUR REAL STRUGGLE against THE
REAL ENEMY(Like you don't know!!!) who has
masterminded the dessension that now exists between
families of the same Nation by eradicating ourselves
with (Black on Black) crimes.
What
we must understand is that our warriors are needed
when it has been proven beyond contradiction that the
CIA were principal importers of Crack Cocaine and
Cocaine period into the hood, initiating the newly
created Drug laws that were blatantly reacially
motivated to set into motion tactics of genocide to
destroy and lock away our brothers and sisters for the
rest of their lives. They have also created conditions
that breed the worst in us. Look at how long the
struggle in South Afrika was extended because of the
fighting of (Afikan on Afrikan) Zulas against A.N.C
and P.A.A.C.
Rap
music and the Hip-Hop nation is a movement unclear of
its final objectives, but a movement nevertheless,
with potentials this government already fully
understands and is prepared to destroy. If we look
back in our history on the Black Nationalist Movement,
the assassination of BUNCHY CARTER and JOHN HUGGINS
two great Panthers on the West Coast by the members of
U.S. organizations ran by Mr.Ron Karaga. Afters years
of my investigation as a memeber of the National Task
Force for Cointel-pro Litigation Research, in
connection with GERONIMO JI JAGAS' trial. The
motivation and participation in the murders by the FBI
has been proven beyond a doubt. The
murder-assassination of ROBERT WEBB, a West Coast
Panther functioning out of New York, killed on 125th
St. and 7th Ave, sparked a vengeful killing of another
great Panther, SAM NAPIER.
The
assassination of ROBERT WEBB was revealed to be FBI
motivated as well as their direct participation in his
assassination which in design was to split the parties
East Coast and West Coast connection. At that time
many of us funcioned out of our emotions and ignorance
and played into it. These types of specified killings
helped to destroy our movement, accomplishing the
governments' goals. Don't go for it!!! Learn from our
past mistakes...Act at all times by rationale and
reasoning. We do not want the death of Tupac or Biggie
to be used as a base for internal fractional side
contradictions. Nor for Biggie and Tupac to be used to
fuel further strife, dissession, and destruction
internally by the Federal/Mass Media governing the
situation.
In
the name of Biggie and Tupac, stop playing yourselves,
and start putting resources into the real struggle.
Show love to your warriors, pay attention to the game
that's being played on/against us. SEARCH FOR TRUTH!!!
Don't look at who shot Biggie and Tupac, but WHY they
were shot. Don't be fooled by the media that(seldom if
ever had a kind word for rappers) has never shown real
concern for your/our welfare. STOP FAKING TUFF...BE
TUFF...!!!
Remember
Biggie for being a principled man, not playing into
the media's hype; jumping the gun even in the face of
some clear disrespect which I apologize for. Don't
allow them to continue to play them. Instead show them
love...Tupac and Biggie will talk on another plane.
Let
Tupac's and Biggie's fans grow into a true bond like
when they first started out.
Let's
do it for them! Continue to search for truth.
May
ALLAH give comfort to Brother Biggie's family.
Especially his offspring as well as friends and fans.
MUCH LOVE TO YOU BIGGIE!!!
To
all the Thugs; Live by the code, protect yourselves at
ALL times. Failure to do so could cost us all.
SINCERELY,
DR. MUTULU SHAKUR STIFF RESISTANCE!!!
