the jurogan experience it's so funny to me how people just get so caught up in east coast and west coast because it really only happened in rap it never happened with rock and roll right you know it never happened with sports i mean it did a little bit with sports in some teams but with the big thing with with rap music was always east coast versus west coast until you guys came around right yeah i'm like really familiar with with that beef um i wrote about it in my book of uh how me and puffy you know had a meeting and uh they wanted me to mediate a meeting with him and sugg was concerned you know with that was after tupac and all of these people you know had got killed and uh it was something that i wanted to do but i couldn't really get you know uh between it because you know things just didn't add up properly and i don't believe in stepping in between something when i don't have all the information um yeah that's got to be extremely difficult right you were in the middle of like a legitimate war where two of the all-time greats yeah were murdered yeah i was asked to uh be in the middle of it and and uh after tupac was murdered one of the things i done was i heard puffy and biggie was in la shooting a video so i was on my tour bus and i turned it all the way around i think i was close to phoenix and i turned it around just to go and have a conversation with big and puffy to alert them that they were in a place that i didn't feel that they should have been in and you know i went there and had a conversation with both of them just to kind of put them on notice that you know this ain't the place to be right now that was before biggie was killed yeah how long before it was i think a few weeks i think a few weeks before and uh you know sometimes and i know puffy meant well and i know
