Well since he had been dead endless consipracys have been thought up and are pretty old weve all read them before but ive never seen it on here and i just read about it on another forum here goes :
Death Row Records, (specifically Suge Knight) had 2Pac killed to earn ALL revenues from his soon-to-be released material. Also, Death Row Records owed 2Pac a reported $9,892,814 and if 2Pac was dead, they would obviously no longer owe him this money.
DID DEATH ROW RECORDS HAVE 2PAC KILLED FOR MONEY???
This is the more reasonable story when it comes to conspiracy and foul play being involved because I think it's way too hard to hide something big like faking your death. More people would be talking if they knew 2Pac was alive. (BUT IT IS POSSIBLE!!!) There's also that mysterious autopsy picture which is now floating around the web. It's obvious that's there some kind of conspiracy involved here. BUT HOW? It's hard choosing this death row records theory over the alive theory because there's so much evidence for 2pac being alive. I'm especially interested in the 7 day theory conspiracy. Yet, there's plenty of reasons for accusing Suge Knight & Death Row Records of killing 2Pac and I'll explain a lot below ...
After reading several articles regarding 2Pac's life & death on Death Row Records, I realized that Death Row Records would stop at nothing to get money. This record label is not the least bit professional and they run a very cruel business. I dislike Suge Knight and the company's attorney, David Kenner. They treated 2Pac horribly by lying to him and not paying him his earned revenues. These two had a lawsuit filed against them by 2Pac's mother for Amaru Records. Afeni Shakur did win this lawsuit and now has right to 2Pac's unreleased material. Click Here to read through the court case article which will persuade you to beleive Suge Knight is a very cruel person.
Now, I'll get into further reasons for Suge Knight killing 2Pac. First off, you should know by now that merchandise sales skyrocket when an artist is killed. You saw it happen with Tupac Shakur and you saw it happen with The Notorious BIG. That’s just the way it is ... So, Suge Knight may have had a plan to kill 2Pac so he could earn all future revenues from 2pac's unreleased material. Not only that, but Death Row Records owed 2Pac a reported $9,892,814 at the time of his death. To achieve not paying 2Pac, Death Row would just lend him cars and jewelry and other **** like that. They wouldn't ever pay the revenues which were in 2Pac's contacts for album sales. It was complete bull****. Death Row Records even went so far to tell 2pac that he actually owed them money! Obviously, if 2Pac is dead they don't have to worry about ever paying up this money and like I said they'll get all future revenues.
Want more reasoning for the record label to want 2pac dead? Well, 2Pac's contract with Death Row was over. He had already finished enough albums with them and now he had plans to start his own record label. I've heard it was to be called Makaveli Records but I'm not completely sure. Anyways, if Death Row didn't like that idea they could have gotten 2Pac killed so that way they'll earn all revenues from 2Pac's material and even release more albums with tracks by 2Pac. Well, that may have been the plan. Fortunately, the US court system made a right decision this time by giving all unreleased material to Afeni Shakur, the mother of 2pac & CEO of Amaru Records. Looks like the plan didn't work out, eh? Not only that, but as you know Suge Knight has been in jail for quite some time. He was sent to jail for about 10 years on probation violation because of the fight with Orlando Anderson the night of 2Pac's shooting. Well, that's about it. There's plenty of evidence for a number of different theories. As long as you agree with me that somethin' mysterious is goin' on, than I'm down with your opinion too. I'm totally confused because I'm hearing more & more new conspriacy facts all the time!

Is 2Pac still alive?
Is Tupac Alive?
Most fans (over 83% in a recent survey) still hold on to the belief that Tupac Shakur may still be alive. There are many suspicious details about his departure that contribute to this.
The uncontested facts:
After leaving the Tyson fight on Saturday September 7, 1996, Tupac was alledgedly shot 5 times. He lived through the shooting and was taken to a nearby hospital. He was pronounced dead on Friday September 13, 1996.
The suspicious facts:
Friday the 13th is a very suspicious day.
There were never any pictures released of Tupac in the hospital.
In the song "Life Goes On", Tupac raps about his own funeral.
The driver of the car in which Tupac was riding, Suge Knight (the executive producer of Death Row Records), didn't show up for questioning about the shooting.
The video "I ain't Mad at Cha" was released only a few days after his death. "I ain't Mad at Cha" is track 13 on the album All Eyes On Me. The video shows Tupac as an angel in heaven. In the video, Tupac was shot after leaving a theater with a friend, which is very similar to how he was shot in real life.
Interestingly, Tupac dies in his last video released under the name "2Pac". His new video "Toss It Up" from the new album was released under the name "Makaveli". The second video to be released by the name Makaveli is "To Live and Die in L.A." But how could they shoot the second video when he is "dead". Was the video really shot 4 months before his death, back in August of '96?
In the video "Hail Mary" released under the name Makaveli, there is a gravestone that says Makaveli. But the gravestone is cracked and there is a hole right in front of it, inferring that Makaveli rose from the dead.
A shooting involving Snoop Doggy Dogg occured close to the release of his album Doggystyle. The shooting made Snoop appear more "real" and showed his fans that he really was a gangsta. The shooting gave him respect because everyone that bought his album believed what he was talking about. Within one week of its release, Doggystyle went platnium. Snoop was signed to the same label as Tupac which is Death Row Records.
In December '96, Tupac's new album went platinum. In interviews prior to the shooting, Tupac talked about how he wanted to stop rapping and being a gangsta and get out of the limelight. What is the only way Tupac could completly escape the media spotlight ??? (Answer: if the public thought he was dead.)
Press wasn't going to be allowed at the funeral, but then the funeral was cancelled for unknown reasons.
Tupac always wore a bulletproof vest, no matter where he went. Why did he remove it at a very public event like a Tyson fight?
In most of his songs he talks about being buried, so why was he allegedly cremated the day after he "died"? And since when do they cremate someone the day after death in a murder case?
Tupac's alias is Makaveli. Though the spelling is different, Machiavelli was a 16th century italian philosopher who advocated the staging of one's death in order to evade one's enemies and gain power. In Machiavelli's book Discourses Upon the First Ten Books of Titus Livy, in Book 2 Chapter XIII he says "a prince who wishes to achieve great things must learn to deceive". This is Machiavelli's main idea and is the connection between Tupac and the writings of Machiavelli.
Tupac studied Machiavelli in depth while in prision was a fan and had read his books several times. Perhaps Tupac is taking his advice. Machiaveli wrote two books before his death. Look at what the All Eyez on Me disks are called.. Machiavelli's books were called, "Book 1," and, "Book 2." The CD's of, "All Eyez On Me," are entitled the same
One of Machiavelli's books is, "Discourses Upon The First Ten Books Of Titus Livy," which it's claimed Tupac read in jail. In Book 2, Chapter XIII He says, "a prince who wishes to achieve great things must learn to decieve..." This is very similar to verses in some of Tupac's songs.
Some say that Tupac modified the Machiavelli name because if you rearrange the letters, they spell, "Am Alive," or, "I Am Alive."
The title of the new album by Makaveli (Tupac) is The 7 Day Theory. He was shot on September 7th; and survived on the 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, and"died" the 13th. Hence the title The 7 Day Theory.
Tupac's album All Eyes on Me was released on Feb.13, 1996. Tupac "died" on Sept.13, 1996. It is quite a coincidence that the two dates are exactly 7 months apart.
Tupac officially died at 4:03 PM. 4+3 = 7 Also he "died" at an age of 25 years. 2+5 = 7. It seems as if seven is Tupac's number.
< There is nothing in the new album that says TUPAC RIP 1971-1996. Wouldn't it make sense to include something like that in the first album after his "death"? The only thing mentioned is "EXIT TUPAC ENTER MAKAVELI".
Ive read many conspisacy theories about 2pacs death, all the stuff about the numbers an ****, but if these theories were true, they stated he would return in 2003, which he did not. I still hold belief that he's alive, although I know he probably isnt.
