The filmmaker who directed the Murder Rap documentary released a 2008 audio clip of reputed gang member and Tupac murder suspect Duane “Keefe D” Davis confessing to his involvement in Shakur’s 1996 killing, talking about his difficulty getting a $1 million payment from Diddy in exchange for carrying out the hit.
Davis claims he told Eric “Von Zip” Martin to collect the money in the days following the shooting, but this was unsuccessful.
“What’s up with the cash?” Keefe D recalled asking Zip over a month after the killing. “[Zip said], ‘[Diddy] ain’t give it to me yet.’ We need money, motherf*cker. They took our guns, all that sh*t. We need some money. They must got millions.”
Within the past year, Diddy has become one of the main figures of interest in the Tupac killing and the East Coast vs. West Coast beef of the 90s seems to be the motive of the shooting deaths of both the Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur. People have speculated on the Bay Boy mogul’s involvement in both murders, but there has been no substantial evidence until the arrest of Davis.
Davis was set to be released on a $750K secured bond as he awaits trial, however, a Nevada judge denied his attempt at making bond. With controversial Cali figure Wack 100 behind the attempt to post bond, the judge found the financial sourcing to be suspicious and denied Davis’ release.
“We are disappointed with the court’s decision to deny bail to Mr. Davis, especially considering the thorough vetting by Konvict Bail Bonds of the funding source conducted before the source hearing,” said Davis’ attorney Carl Arnold. “We firmly believe there is a lack of substantive proof that Mr. Davis intended to profit from his alleged connections to the case.”
