Fox To Investigate Mystery Of Who Shot Biggie and Tupac In New Special
The network says the investigative crime special will examine "two of the greatest murder mysteries in pop culture history" and "dig deep into the entangled murders of hip-hop's most legendary adversaries." Rappers Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls were gunned down within months of each other in the late 1990s. Shakur was fatally shot in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas on September 13, 1996. While Smalls, born Christopher George Latore Wallace, was killed by an unknown assailant in a drive-by shooting in Los Angeles on March 9, 1997. It has been 20 years since their murders, and the murders continue to be unsolved. Police corruption, gang connections and a rap rivalry are all theories about what might have played a role in their untimely deaths. The two-hour investigation will be led by actor and rap music icon Ice-T and award-winning journalist and documentarian Soledad O’Brien. Fox promises the special ”will lead viewers through an investigation re-examining these legendary homicides by uncovering new details and revealing never-before-heard accounts", including interviews with former private investigators, police officers, informants and hip-hop insiders, including Doug E. Fresh and Suge Knight. 'Who Shot Biggie & Tupac?' will air on Sunday, September 24 on Fox.
