Continued... The Rivalry

This rivalry started with music videos and lyrics launched by west coast rapper 2-Pac. 2-pac was aware of the animosity that was going on with Bad Boy Records and his label Death Row. However, that didn't stop the feud between the two labels. Some believe that the debate was over who was the most popular by fans and who sold the most records according to Box Office Hits. 2-pac was on the set of the single of his 1992 album where it feature a "look-a-like" Faith Evans. Faith Evans was a good friend and lifelong companion of Christopher "Biggie Smalls" Wallace. In his song, he was making verbal disses about his "so called" relationship between the famous R&B singer stating that they were an item under closed doors. Of course when Bad Boy Records heard of these accusations, and wanted to fire back with another song, that they would release, doing the same thing. Rappers such as Snoop Dogg, Ice-Cube, and their protege's and hype-men decided to get personal and bash the Death Row Label and the 1993 Music Awards seen on Cable Television MTV.
