This was revealed by his Father Billy Garland, who believed the government had a hand in his son’s death. The circumstances surrounding Tupac’s untimely demise, along with the subsequent unsolved death of fellow rapper Biggie Smalls, have given rise to numerous conspiracy theories. However, amidst the speculation, Tupac’s father, Billy Garland, holds a firm belief. During an appearance on the YouTube channel ‘The Art of Dialogue,’ he expressed his conviction that the US government is responsible for his son’s murder. According to his father, on the night of Tupac’s murder, he and other members of his group of friends from his record label, Death Row Records, beat up Orlando Anderson, a member of a rival gang in Las Vegas, at a boxing match between Mike Tyson and Bruce Seldon. Orlando Anderson allegedly stole a Death Row pendant, which Sean Combs (creator of Death Row’s rival label Bad Boy Records) had said he would give 20,000 dollars for. Following the altercation, Orlando Anderson pursued Tupac and Suge Knight’s vehicle after the fight, eventually opening fire and tragically causing the rapper’s death. According to Billy Garland, Tupac Shakur’s father, his son’s actions were misguided, driven by a desire to earn respect and prove himself in front of Death Row and Suge Knight’s associates. Despite the belief that the incident was orchestrated, Billy Garland does not believe that Orlando Anderson was responsible for his son’s murder, citing inconclusive evidence as the basis for his scepticism. Adding to the complexity, Anderson’s uncle, Keefe D, a prominent member of the Crips gang, has been attributing his nephew’s demise to himself for years. However, Garland warns that this narrative is part of a government cover-up. “The key point, in my opinion, is the government,” he expressed. “They offered him a deal. Agents were tailing him on the night of his murder, just as they were following him at Quad Studios. That’s a well-known fact.” “I don’t know this individual, Keefe. Perhaps he was coerced into making those claims to resolve certain issues. I don’t know. It simply appeared to me as a setup. Someone directed him to stay there, and with the entire Death Row situation, we now have what we have. However, I firmly believe he had no involvement in my son’s death. None whatsoever.”
