When it goes up for auction later this week, 2Pac’s autographed script from his 1994 movie Above the Rim is anticipated to bring in thousands of dollars.
The script will be available for purchase on Nate D. Sanders Auctions’ website starting on Thursday, November 21. It is said to be in excellent condition with only slight wear and tear, and Pac signed his signature in pen on the cover.
Along with a Letter of Authenticity from the son of actor David Bailey, who portrayed Mike Rollins in the movie and obtained the script that is for sale, the purchase also includes a rare on-set photo.
In other news, it has been stated that 2Pac’s family has chosen to look into the claims that Diddy was complicit in the late rapper’s murder.
According to a July TMZ article, some of Pac’s family members hired a group of investigators and attorneys, including Alex Spiro and Christopher Clore, to investigate Keefe D’s recently revived allegation that Puff offered to pay him to kill Pac in the 1990s.
In a 2009 police interview, Keefe stated that during the height of Bad Boy’s feud with Death Row Records in the mid-1990s, Diddy had promised him $1 million to kill both Suge Knight and 2Pac. He then sent half of the money to Harlem mobster Eric “Von Zip” Martin following ‘Pac’s 1996 murder.
Months after the conversation, the former Compton Crip flew to New York with LAPD officers as part of a scheme to gather evidence against the Bad Boy entrepreneur and Martin, according to a court document obtained by The Sun ahead of Keefe’s trial later this year.
According to the prosecution, Keefe was caught trafficking a lot of cocaine, which led him to become a “active confidential informant” for the task force that was first established to look into Biggie’s death.
According to the 179-page report, the ex-gang member flew to New York City with task force officers in an attempt to “corroborate the conspiracy” to assassinate 2Pac.
Pac’s family now wants to investigate and see if there is anything there, even though Diddy was never charged at the time. They intend to file criminal charges if they discover anything.
In 2011, Puff told L.A. Weekly that Keefe D’s story was “pure fiction and completely ridiculous,” denying any role in the murder.
