Man Confesses To Shooting And Robbing Tupac in 1994

“In 1994, James Rosemond hired me to rob Tupac Shakur at the Quad Studio. He gave me $2,500, plus all the jewelry I took. Except for one ring, which he wanted for himself. It was the biggest of the two diamond rings that we took. He said he wanted to put the stone in a new setting for his girlfriend at the time… I still have as proof the chain that we took that night in the robbery.”
 — Whoa! A man named Dexter Isaac tells the AllHipHop website that he committed the heretofore unsolved shooting and robbery that touched off the terrible Tupac vs. Biggie beef which later became central to the whole East Coast vs. West Coast war which preceded the murders of rap’s two biggest stars. (Tupac claimed Biggie and Puffy were in on the set-up.) Dexter verifies Tupac’s accusation, immortalized on the 1996 song, “Against All Odds,” that music executive Jimmy “Henchman” Rosemond was behind the incident. Rosemond is currently wanted by the government for drug trafficking.
