Mopreme Shakur, brother of Tupac Shakur, has criticized Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs for his previous statements regarding the rapper’s death.
Sharing his doubt over Combs’s past statement, Mopreme told Piers Morgan Uncensored, “My opinion is that I don’t believe it was a 100 percent honest statement. So, again, we gotta find out what’s true and what’s false. What’s real and what’s fake.”
Recounting a past exchange with Combs, he continued, “(He) basically said he had nothing to do with my brother’s murder. I told him, ‘The truth is still yet to come out, so we’re going to see.’ Here we are, 27, 28 years later, it looks like there’s some doubt in that statement, along with all the other suspicions that people have.”
Asked if he thinks Combs was lying, Mopreme replied, “Quite possibly and it’s kind of looking that way, in my opinion.”
In a 2008 statement, Combs denied any involvement in the 1996 murder of Tupac.
However, in September 2023, Crips gang leader Duane ‘Keffe D’ Davis was charged with Tupac’s murder in Las Vegas.
Following these developments, Tupac’s family began investigating Combs’ potential connection to the murder.
A Los Angeles Times article suggested that Combs may have lured Tupac to a music studio where he was ultimately fatally shot.
Diddy previously denied the accusations via a statement that read, “The story is a lie. It is beyond ridiculous and completely false.
“Neither (the late rapper Notorious B.I.G.) nor I had any knowledge of any attack before, during or after it happened. I am shocked that the Los Angeles Times would be so irresponsible as to publish such a baseless and completely untrue story.”
