Two of the most notorious unsolved cases in the annals of American crime, the murders of Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls have been the subject of exhaustive investigations, relentless speculation and a tangled web of rampant rumors, crackpot conspiracies and dark secrets. Now, for the first time, the truth behind these sensational cases is laid bare in Murder Rap, a raw and riveting account of how a dedicated and driven police detective spearheaded the task force that finally exposed the shocking facts behind the deaths of these two rap music icons. Told by Greg Kading, a much-decorated LAPD detective assigned to solve the homicides, Murder Rap unravels a twisted tale of music, money, and murder, finally answering the question of who killed Biggie and Tupac and why. With access to never-before-seen material, including the confessions of those directly involved in the killings, Kading’s spellbinding saga takes readers directly inside the four-year cold case investigation, introduces a cast of unforgettable characters and provides compelling new evidence for its explosive conclusions. A torn-from-the-headlines true crime blockbuster, the scathing revelations of Murder Rap are sure to make headlines all their own.

RIP TUPAC AND BIGGIE--KADING FOUND THE ANSWERS

ByMichael Pounderson February 18, 2016

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Kading puts together a dynamic story about the investigation into the death of Christopher “Biggie Smalls” Wallace and Tupac Shakur. I believe this is the closest we will get to solving both rap star’s murders. I’m not going to rehash what is in the book…there are plenty of other reviews for that. I would suggest checking out the documentary that shares the same name as the book. Also, browse the internet for interviews that Kading has done since the release of the book and documentary.

I was sort of on the Russell Poole side of things a few years ago—rouge LAPD cops that were gangsters, working for Suge Knight, killed Tupac and Biggie—but after reading the evidence and listening to the statements given to authorities, Kading easily refutes Poole’s theory.

Hopefully the addition of the documentary to Netflix in Spring 2016 will get people talking about the unsolved murders almost 2 decades later.

Tupac and Biggie were huge influential figures in rap and hip-hop and their legacies live on even today.

Their story deserves to be told in great detail and Kading is the man that should be telling it.

Shame on the LAPD for losing the motivation to connect Sean “Puffy” Combs and Suge Knight to these murders.

Thank you Afeni Shakur and Voletta Wallace for the contributions that your sons made to music, culture and society. We loved them and we love both of you. We still mourn with you today for both of your losses.

And the sad part was Land/Keff were not paid and Biggie mostly ...

ByAlonzo Lasilooon August 22, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Makes sense after those crazy wild theories from those past books/dvds. I always knew Anderson was the shooter and that Suge had nothing to do with the shooting of 2pac. But I was blown away when Puffy wanted 2pac and Suge killed. Puffy is the Hip-Hop "OJ." He was trying protect his life/family? If I had kids, I would not challenge any gang members cause they would come for us nor I wouldn't try to hangout with gangs also. If I made millions, I could hire all the profession security guards, I wanted. And the sad part was Land/Keff were not paid and Biggie mostly likely had nothing to do with the hit and died. Karma will get Puffy. No changes filed but Kading did a great job, not all white cops dangerous.
