50 Cent had a little fun trolling Diddy after a suspect connected to the murder of Tupac Shakur was arrested in Nevada.
After more than 27 years of waiting and wondering, Las Vegas police recently made an arrest, charging Duane “Keefe D” Davis in connection with the murder of the late West Coast rap star.
In grand jury testimony, retired Las Vegas Metro Police Detective Clifford Mugg claimed Tupac Shakur’s murder was related to the killing of East Coast rapper Biggie Smalls.
One name that wasn’t mentioned by Mugg, but has long been rumored to have ties to the killing was Sean Combs, AKA Diddy.
However, never one to miss an opportunity to troll one of frenemies on social media, 50 Cent took to Instagram after the arrest of Davis with a comment directed at Diddy.
“Damn so pac got lined by brother love,” 50 Cent wrote on Monday, alongside a photo of Tupac and Suge Knight in a car together.
Diddy’s real name is Sean Love Combs.
“LOL Time to Lawyer up, s— might get sticky,” 50 Cent added.
According to retired Los Angeles police detective Greg Kading, RadarOnline.com reports, Diddy allegedly hired Crips gang member “Keefe D” to kill Tupac and his manager, Suge Knight, for $1 million.
Davis’ nephew Orlando “Baby Lane” Anderson was one of two men suspected of actually pulling the trigger on the gun that killed Shakur.
Davis even admitted in his book, Compton Street Legend, that he slipped the gun used to kill Tupac into the backseat of the Cadillac that was used in the shooting
“Keefe D” also claimed in a interview in July of this year, “If I wouldn’t have ever met [Diddy], I wouldn’t have ever been involved in this bulls–. If I would’ve never met the brother, I never would’ve been involved in this bull—-.”
He continued, “We really crashed two people’s empires in one night. … [Diddy] is the only one still balling. He made our s— go down, man.”
Interestingly, according to detective Kading, that interview and others given by Davis over the years provided Las Vegas police “the ammunition and the leverage to move forward.”
“Prior to Keefe D’s public declarations, the cases were unprosecutable as they stood,” he said.
