The first conviction in this cold case that's been hanging over hip hop for almost 30 years. Back on September 7th, 1996, Tupac was killed in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas. Davis, who was 63, didn't pull the trigger himself, but prosecutors argue he was the mastermind, supplying the weapon and ordering the hit. The whole thing went down as retaliation, after Davis's nephew got into a fight with Tupac and his crew just hours before. This case has been a legendary mystery, fueling countless theories and conspiracies for decades. It happened during a really tense time in hip hop, with the East Coast vs West Coast rivalry and serious gang beasts between the Bloods and Crips. Tupac was only 25, at the peak of his career, and had already sold over 75 million records worldwide. The real deal was Davis's own words.
