For his half, Snoop was left speechless when followers cornered him for a response.
Mopreme admits Drake’s tune made him notice AI “is a hell of a device” … and in Pac’s case, he is apprehensive youthful generations would possibly confuse the synthetic Pac with the actual deal.
Suge Knight‘s response was just like Mopreme’s … he says Pac was king and may by no means be stooped right down to do a pawn’s bidding.
