    When he repped West Side and dissed the biggest east coast rappers at the time .......

    Makaveli said when he was throwing up the W it wasn't really for westside Cali it meant War & there was a Westside n nu Jerzey on the eastcoast n 96...

    2Pac would say one thing on Monday and on Tuesday he's saying the opposite.

    Not true cuz not only did pac have nu Jerzey Kat's throwing the W up n 96 repping westside makaveli also had Brooklyn Kat's like buckshot throwing the W up n 96 n Cali repping 1nation!

    Yeah but that doesn't make sense.

    What do u mean it doesn't make sense? It makes perfect sense pac was the only rapper of his kind @ the time that could rep both coast s n 96 that's y deathrow east was gonna take over the east but makaveli died...

    Yeah this should be common knowledge, most of the east coast cats in the early 90's were still using jazz and James Brown samples, while the west coast was sampling Sly and the family stone, P funk, prince, The Isley bros, Earth, wind and fire, Ohio players, etc, and their ? was killin. Puff and Big saw that formula and used it to the T. Of course it had an east coast flavor to it, but the g funk /west coast influence was obviously there.
