Mase Insinuates Diddy Is Tied To Keefe D, Tupac’s Murder Suspect

October 5, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Mase just opened up a decades-long debate while commenting on Keefe D’s arrest in the Tupac Shakur murder case on his sports talk show with Cam’ron. Alongside a special guest, comedian Bubba Dub, they labeled the development as the most “trash moment of the week.” Moreover, the rapper sarcastically remarked that something about the name sounded familiar, which prompted hilarity from Cam and Bubba. He acted oblivious and prompted the comedian to explain the case and also imitate Diddy’s dance, as he knew that Mase just implied that his former rival Sean Combs had something to do with it.

“I pray 2Pac gets justice whoever is involved, I don’t even mean that in no joking way,” he said, which made his Dipset co-host laugh and shake his head with his arms in the air. For those unaware, these allegations come straight from Keefe D himself, who claimed in a 2008 police confession that he talked about a deal with Diddy to kill both Tupac and Suge Knight in the mid-1990s. Still, the Southside Compton Crips member said that the mogul’s payment never came through. Of course, Diddy has vehemently denied his involvement numerous times in the past.

Mase Alludes To Diddy’s Involvement With Keefe D In Tupac Shakur’s Murder

As the story stands, or at least what authorities believe, Orlando Anderson (Keefe D’s nephew) shot Tupac dead in 1996 shortly after the rap legend attacked him in a Vegas MGM hotel and casino. Allegedly, Anderson had stolen a Death Row associate’s chain months prior. Even Tupac’s brother spoke on Diddy’s potential involvement, though, during a recent conversation. “This individual [Keefe D] mentioned [Diddy’s] name,” Mopreme Shakur told The Comedy Hype News Show. “Law enforcement has a job to do. Will they do it? It does feel like ‘Pac is being vindicated because back in them days when things were going down, everybody thought he was cr*zy. He may not have expressed it properly, but that don’t mean he was wrong. So we’ll see.”

“They’re going to need very credible substantiating witnesses,” retired LAPD detective Greg Kading told Rolling Stone of Combs’ involvement in a recent interview.. “They would have to say, ‘I was there when I heard him make the solicitation,’ or ‘I was there when the money got paid, and it was very clear that that money was designated for this purpose,’ or ‘I delivered the money.’ Whether those people exist or not, I don’t know. I’ve always given a caveat to the whole ‘Puffy’ Combs connection. Puffy’s not built like Suge Knight, and I don’t think Puffy was truly intentionally trying to get either Tupac or Suge killed. I don’t like Puffy. I don’t think he’s a murderer.” For more on Diddy, Mase, Tupac, and Keefe D, log back into HNHH.

Orlando Brown Claims That Tupac & Keefe D Are The Same Person: Watch

October 2, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Orlando Brown is well-known to drop some absolutely bonkers takes on the Internet, which inspire as much concern as hilarity, unfortunately. It’s sometimes very clear that he’s going through something, and other times he just seems very confused, like with this most recent claim. Moreover, the actor and reality TV star decided to weigh in on the Keefe D arrest in the Tupac Shakur murder case. According to him, the two are actually the same person, and Keefe’s soul needs to go back to ‘Pac’s body. In an interview with Cam Capone News, the former Disney Channel star seems to be almost completely out of it in his remarks.

“Keefe D, accused of- and he did interviews about it- of putting himself in the car with Orlando.” the interviewer told him. “The alleged shooter, the killer of Tupac. Supposedly, Keefe D was in the car. He’s wrote a book about this, I’ve interviewed Keefe D. A lot of other people, [like] Vlad, have interviewed Keefe D about the actual night that Tupac died. The cops raided his house and, right now, they have a grand jury going. He’s probably going to be arrested for his part [in] the murder of Tupac.” “He is Tupac,” Orlando Brown said with a blank expression on his face, to which the interviewer simply replied “Okay.” “Can’t arrest him if he’s the man that died!” Brown exclaimed before laughing and clapping boisterously.

“Can’t arrest him if he’s the man that died, what the f**k?” the “That’s So Raven” alum continued. “Look at that mans. Look at him, that’s Tupac!” Orlando Brown then answered the interviewer’s question of whether Keefe D beats the case. “They’re not gonna arrest him, I just said he’s Tupac [spoiler alert: they did]. If they arrest him, they have to put him in Tupac’s body.

“They’re not gonna arrest him ’cause they’re gonna let the man live, they don’t wanna see ‘Pac up,” he concluded. “That’s what this s**t is all about, they don’t wanna see him living, they don’t wanna see him live. They know he’s alive, we all know he’s here. They ain’t wanna give him his body. That’s what it is, they want him to look like a sucker every time he keep popping up and s**t. That’s not Tupac and how he would pop up. F***ing holograms and s**t. You know what I’m saying?” For more on Tupac, Keefe D, and Orlando Brown, come back to HNHH.

Keefe D Mugshot Unveiled By Las Vegas Police After Arrest For Tupac’s Murder

September 29, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The hip-hop world received a shock today when Las Vegas police announced that they arrested Duane “Keefe D” Davis, now a prime suspect in the murder of Tupac Shakur 27 years ago. Moreover, that case is among hip-hop’s most debated events, and continues to be a contentious one in no small part thanks to Keefe’s claims. As one of the last living witnesses to the crime, his remarks and statements on it generated much conversation and controversy. Now that authorities charged him with murder of a deadly weapon, though, it seems like all this speculation might see an official conclusion in the eyes of the law.

Furthermore, Nevada officials released Keefe D’s mugshot into the world, and many are reacting to it and this news with shock and skepticism. After all, it’s been so long and such a burnt-out conversation that it feels surreal that Tupac Shakur’s murder might finally see a resolution. “For 27 years the family of Tupac Shakur has been waiting for justice,” stated Sheriff Kevin McMahill, according to reporter Meghann Cuniff. “While I know there’s been many people who did not believe that the murder of Tupac Shakur was important to this police department, I am here to tell you that that was simply not the case.”

In addition, the Las Vegas Police Department believes that Keefe D “orchestrated” the attack, which lines up with his previous testimony that he gave nephew Orlando Anderson to shoot the West Coast rap legend. According to the LVPD, Davis was the “shot-caller” of a large group with intentions to harm ‘Pac. Not only that, but they also relayed suspicion that Davis received the weapon in question from a “close associate” that they would reveal in due time. Also, authorities charged Keefe with intent to promote, further, or assist a criminal organization.

Meanwhile, this ties into Vegas PD’s explanation as to why they charged the 60-year-old even if he didn’t pull the trigger. Given state law in Nevada, officials can charge him with aiding or abetting, as these charges can still apply to criminals who don’t directly commit a crime. Surely in the next few days and weeks, we will learn more of this developing and long-running case. On that note, keep checking in with HNHH for more news and the latest updates on Keefe D and Tupac Shakur.

Prosecutors Confident That Keefe D Will Face Murder Trial For 2Pac’s Death

August 19, 2023 by newhiphopnews

According to sources who spoke with The Daily Mirror, prosecutors are ready to present the case to bring Duane “Keefe D” Davis to a Las Vegas grand jury. Keefe D has long claimed that he is a material witness to the murder of 2Pac. Furthermore, he has gone as far as to say that he handed the gun to his nephew Orlando Anderson before Anderson reportedly killed 2Pac in September 1996. “We expect this matter to become a criminal case imminently. Keefe has gloated so much about this that he has effectively talked himself into huge legal trouble,” detectives on the case reportedly told the British newspaper.

This comes after a grand jury was convened last month. Meanwhile, law enforcement in Las Vegas executed several raids on properties connected to Keefe D. The primary raid was on the home of Keefe D’s ex-wife, where bullets were among the evidence taken into custody. However, last week it was revealed that the bullets recovered did not match samples recovered from the 1996 crime scene.

Will Keefe D Go To Trial?

The case is currently in the hands of a grand jury. A grand jury is a precursor to a jury trial. Prosecutors present a version of their case to the grand jury before it ever sees a courtroom. This is in order to establish whether a crime warranting a trial was committed. The grand jury then considers the evidence and rules on whether the case should go to trial. If you ever hear that charges were dropped due to a “lack of sufficient evidence”, it’s like that prosecutors failed to convince a grand jury that a trial was warranted based on the evidence they had.

In the case of Keefe D, it is likely that the primary evidence is the testimony of Keefe D himself. Almost since the day of 2Pac’s death, Keefe D has told anyone who will listen that he knows who killed 2Pac. Additionally, he has repeatedly claimed that he himself was involved in the murder. This culminated with Keefe D being the star testimonial in the A&E documentary, Who Killed Tupac Shakur? As mentioned in the Mirror report, prosecutors believe that Keefe D has essentially talked himself into a criminal trial. However, it remains to be seen what the grand jury thinks of the evidence. It’s believed that the grand jury will make a decision before the end of September.
