Katt Williams Says He’s Working On A New 2Pac Posthumous Album
Katt Williams is working on a new project using vocals from a legendary rapper. In a recent interview with Suge Knight’s Collect Call podcast, Williams said that he is releasing a Tupac Shakur posthumous album.
“What you got going on with some of those unreleases with ‘Pac, s—, you got me excited,” the imprisoned music executive said. “The different people you said you’re gonna put on there.”
Williams only name-dropped Cardi B, who he dubbed as the “female version of 2Pac.”
As of right now, there is no additional information on the project: such as a potential release date, other guest features, or if the project is tied to a visual component like a biopic. Cardi has not commented on her involvement in the project.
Tupac’s Alleged Murderer Faces June Trial
Knight was in the car with Shakur on the night he was killed. The legendary rapper was killed on Sept. 7, 1996, in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas. He was sitting inside a black car with Marion “Suge” Knight. Knight, at the time, was the CEO of Death Row Records. On the night of Sept. 7, 1996, police say the two stopped at a red light near the Las Vegas Strip when a white Cadillac pulled up next to them, and gunfire erupted. The “Dear Mama” rapper was shot multiple times. He succumbed to his injuries a week later in a local hospital.
His alleged murderer is now on trial. Former gang member Duane Keith Davis, known as Keefe D, has recently requested house arrest while he awaits his trial date in June. Keefe D is accused of orchestrating the shooting that killed Shakur. He was arrested on September 29 and held without bail since. According to police, he is the only suspect in the case who is still alive. Keefe D pleaded not guilty to the murder charges in November 2023.
