The other two producers were Hurt-M-Badd and Darryl 'Big D' Harper. Shakur also co-produces four tracks on the album. The only producer with whom Shakur had worked prior to this album was QD3, the son of Quincy Jones and half-brother of Shakur's girlfriend Kidada Jones. Many of Shakur's usual producers were not involved in the project. Before that, it was going to be a sort of an underground. George 'Papa G' Pryce, former head of publicity for Death Row, claimed that 'Makaveli which we did was a sort of tongue-in-cheek, and it was not ready to come out, after Tupac was murdered, it did come out. The album cover, which features Shakur on the cross in an attempt to convey his crucifixion by the media, was created in mid-August 1996. Ronald 'Riskie' Brent is the creator of The 7 Day Theory cover painting. Tupac wanted the album to be called Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory, with Makaveli the Don as the artist name. Mean of the Outlawz and Ronald 'Riskie' Brent revealed in an August 2014 interview that the official name of the album was mixed up in the rush to release the album following Tupac's death. The album's preliminary title was 'The 3 Day Theory', (originally consisted of around 14 tracks). These are the last songs Shakur recorded before he was shot on September 7, 1996. The lyrics were written and recorded in only three days and mixing took an additional four days. The album was completely finished in seven days during the first week of August 1996. The album was supported by three singles: ' Toss It Up', ' To Live & Die in L.A' and ' Hail Mary'. By 1999, it was certified 4× Platinum by the Recording Association Industry of America ( RIAA). The album peaked at number one on the Billboard 200, selling 664,000 copies within its first week. The album features guest appearances from rap group Outlawz and rapper Bad Azz, as well as R&B singers Aaron Hall, Danny Boy, K-Ci and JoJo and Val Young, along with reggae musician Prince Ital Joe. It is his only album released under a new alternative stage name, Makaveli, and it is the last Tupac album released with his creative input. It was released on November 5, 1996, almost two months after his death, and was released through Death Row Records, Makaveli Records and Interscope Records. School them fools.The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory (commonly shortened to The 7 Day Theory or Makaveli) is the fifth studio album and first posthumous album by American rapper Tupac Shakur, credited as the alias Makaveli. So if anyone try’s to hit you with that ol’ Suge killed Pac bullshit using “ Suge shot me” as proof. I’ve searched around and I haven’t found anyone else that has discovered this. You can only hear it in the Music Video version of Da Funk and not the album version. So I guess Pac or the producer on Bomb first used a sample from Da Funk, which is pretty common, producers sample beats, riffs, melodies, sound effects etc all the time, especially in Hip-Hop. I couldn’t believe it! I discovered it completely by accident.ĭa Funk was released in 1995 & Bomb First in 1996. It has the exact same intro minus the bells that are in Bomb First. Another song I’ve heard a million times but had never noticed until I was listening to the Music Video version through Earphones while watching it on YouTube. However sometime last year I was listening to a Daft Punk Song called Da Fuck. And I must have listen to the “Suge shot me” thing a million times, and it is eerie a fuck cus it does actually sound a lot like that. Well when I was younger I loved reading about all these conspiracy theories linked to Pac’s death. Two months after Tupac, but over some other shit) recorded the message so that the world would know the truth. In the Kadafi version of the myth, Yaki who was allegedly the only witness that could identify the shooter in Pac’s murder or at least the only one willing to talk to police about it (which I believe is bullshit) knowing that Suge had ordered the hit, and fearing he too would be murdered (Which he was. In the first few seconds of Bomb first (My second reply) you can heard a voice, seemingly saying “ Suge Shot me” or “ Suge Shot Him” The voice is allegedly Tupac himself (although it sounds nothing like him), a Death Row employee who got wind of the plot or Yaki Kadafi.

(Which in my opinion is ridiculous) One of the most prominent in the list of reasons of why people believe this, is the apparent 'Proof” in the opening track of the 7 Day Theory album. One of the most well known of these being that Suge Knight orchestrated the hit on Pac.

So here goes.Įvery hardcore 2pac fan already knows all the urban myths & theories surrounding his death. I was supposed to do a post on this ages ago, but better late than never. Putting the “ Suge Shot Me” myth to rest.

Makaveli album suge shot him
