Watch on YouTube

Video summary

The video centers on the highly anticipated murder trial of Dwayne "Keefe D" Davis in Las Vegas, where he is accused of orchestrating the fatal shooting of Tupac Shakur thirty years after the incident took place. A significant point of discussion regarding this case involves the composition of the jury, which has been selected and consists entirely of white individuals with only one African-American member present. The speaker questions whether a single Black juror can truly represent justice in such a high-profile case involving another Black victim, suggesting that the demographic makeup might influence how the trial is perceived or played out by those seeking to make an example of Davis for killing Tupac. The narrative delves into the conflicting stories and theories surrounding the night Tupac was killed on September 7, 1996, following a Mike Tyson fight in Las Vegas. While some accounts describe it as gang retaliation between the Southside Crips and Piru Bloods over a stolen medallion chain, others suggest involvement from figures like Sean "Puffy" Combs or financial motives involving Biggie Smalls' estate. The speaker highlights Davis's role in reviving his own notoriety by writing a book titled *Compton Street Legend* and giving numerous interviews on platforms like Vlad TV, only to later recant those statements as the legal pressure mounted. This behavior is criticized as an attempt at self-promotion that ultimately backfired, leading to his arrest and current trial charges for masterminding the murder rather than just pulling the trigger himself. A critical argument presented in the video concerns how Davis's own actions contributed significantly to his downfall; had he remained silent about his involvement with Tupac over the decades, investigators might never have reopened a cold case that lacked sufficient forensic evidence at the time of the crime. The speaker notes that criminal defense attorneys and former prosecutors agree that keeping quiet could have saved him from prosecution entirely, yet Davis's desire for fame led him to brag about the event even when police raided his home. Additionally, there is speculation about whether Suge Knight will testify during the trial while serving a separate prison sentence, with some humorously suggesting he might travel to Las Vegas just to get away from his current confinement in San Diego before returning to serve more of his twenty-eight-year term. Ultimately, the video concludes by reflecting on the tragic loss of Tupac Shakur at age 25 and the complex web of street politics that led to his death, while emphasizing that Davis's pursuit of infamy has cost him everything he once had. The speaker reiterates the importance of silence in serious matters, noting that speaking out about crimes can lead to severe consequences regardless of one's intentions or past claims of innocence. As the trial moves forward with opening statements expected soon, the focus remains on whether a conviction will be reached for this historic case and what it means for the legacy of Tupac Shakur and the gang culture of Los Angeles that defined his era.

[music] Yeah, we on Boss Talk TV. Shout out to E. He the reason you see. >> And demographic wise, it is a mix of middle-aged people. There is only one African-American person in there. Um, a gentleman. >> Wow. Guys, make sure you like, subscribe to the channel. Ke's trial is really pretty much done took off. You know, it's going now. Uh, the jury has been selected. There's only one black man. They didn't say what color the other folks was, but we got one black man, which they trying to make equate that to he might have a shot at it. One black man will be on the jury for this Kefi D 30 years ago trial. And I know he know who Tupac is. Reality TV, you there? >> I'm here, >> man. Here she go again. Is in the building with you today. The one talking [ __ ] last time. What's up with it? >> What he do? >> So, I'm trying to figure out y'all. Have y'all ever heard of Tupac? Cuz I know y'all young. >> Don't play with us. We know Tupac. >> Okay. Okay. Well, give me a give me a song or something. I want a little evidence to know that I'm not just wasting my time with this guy. What song do you know from Tupac? >> Brenda got a baby. >> Oh, wait a minute. Brenda got a baby. >> CAN SPELL A BABY. >> WHOA. WAIT a minute. By got can barely spell her name. >> I got to come with this. I got to come with this. >> Yeah. You can run the street. >> Oh man, y'all. Okay. All right. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have never questioned the truth. There she go again with that [ __ ] There they come. Listen, I'm telling you right now, this trial is crazy cuz I've never seen anybody get taken. You know, there is no no term, no no set. You can't just disqualify a murder. Uh uh anytime there's a mur murder involved, it's it it can always be brought to trial. But 30 years later, Kefi D is brought to trial. And now they're saying, "We're going to convict him for Tupac's murder." Now, everybody else that was around during that time, except for Suge Knight, um is is dead. Uh uh uh uh the boy uh Baby Lang, all them guys is dead that that allegedly pulled the trigger. Do y'all see them convicting him for this? He wrote a book. He been on all these damn social media platforms. He was on Vlad TV. He was on a few different uh uh shows, but do y'all think they gonna send him up the creek for this? >> Hell yeah. Because they gotta make it seem like they closed something so big. This was a big thing in the rap, you know, uh music industry period. So yeah, these white Oh, excuse me. These folks want to u Oh, well, I say that the white folks definitely want to make an example, you know, that they closed this big case of him killing Tupac, >> another black man. >> Another black man. >> Wow. And when you think about Tupac, Tupac was one that has so much uh done so much in so little time. He passed away at the age of 10, the age of 25 years old. But when you look at his catalog is he got more songs than a lot of people that been living to be uh 50 years old. So at the end of the day, he was a workaholic during the time he was here. He was in multiple movies. Uh y'all know he was in Poetic Justice and he was in uh Gritlock and he was in Juice, you know. This guy was working. There was another one as well. There was a few, you know, but at the end of the day, Tupac, man, he was all he was in a different world. all them sitcoms. He would show up. He was on the Martin show, Martin Lawrence show. This guy was everywhere in such a small limited small time. But we all know everybody when you say his name, like I just said with y'all, you guys come up with the songs. I would have said All Eyes on Me. I would have said uh Me against the World Baby. You know, I I would have said it's so many songs that he done and so many things that he done in such a small amount of time. I would shut the definition of balling and you know what I'm saying? Thug life. You know that a whole different movement than everybody else. The Yeah. The hate you gave the little infant children. You know what I mean? >> Thug life. So >> And so when you when when you think about this guy, man, you got to give him props. But propers, as E4 said when he was on my show, propers, you got to give him propers. But at at any at any rate, just let's let's just let's just talk about it for a minute, y'all. Like, what did y'all what do y'all think? [clears throat] Did he just open his mouth too much, Kefi D? >> Nobody asked him for that. >> Nobody, >> you know, and people credit just to say or just to just to be running in their mouth. And yeah, it's going to get him in a world of trouble. >> Now, tell who did it then. >> Oh, he said he said uh at first he said the nephew did it. Now he's saying they forced him. Listen at this. I want y'all to hear this. And we going to go all the way through there on this case. Watch this. >> The trial of former Compton Crips gang leader Dwayne Keid Davis for orchestrating the murder of Tupac Shakur is underway in Las Vegas. Gang beef is at the heart of it. It took nearly 30 years to get this cold case off of the rap icon's murder to a courtroom. So we put together a timeline of how it got to [music] this point. In early summer 1996, tensions escalated between the Southside Crips and the mob Piru Bloods in LA when Dwayne Keid Davis's nephew Orlando Anderson stole the Death Row Records medallion chain of a Bloods member. On September 7th, 1996, after a Mike Tyson fight in Las Vegas, Death Row Records founder Suge Knight and his artist, rap icon Tupac Shakur, jumped Orlando Anderson and gave Kefi D's nephew a retaliatory beatd down. >> Wow. Stop right there. A retaliator beatd down. And she called him the P ruse. She don't she I don't know where this woman [laughter] she reporting on this damn thing, man. the gang violence in the neighborhoods and the perus and the and and so so you guys just heard what she was saying. Did did y were y'all aware there was a fight after a Mike Tyson fight? Did y'all know about that? >> Yeah, I did. >> We see the videos. >> Okay. And and and did y'all know that that that there was a retal retaliatorial beatdown? Did y'all know that? Yeah, they >> because of a ch a chain, right? >> Yeah. Sometimes the mouth >> and I >> You ain't mad at him. >> That's why he That's You know, and I ain't mad at him. >> It cost him his life. How in the hell you ain't mad at him? >> I'm saying the video. Remember the beginning of I ain't mad at you video. >> Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He did say that. Yeah. Yeah. What you know about that video? That was all white. >> He did He redid the I guess the vision he already had of him dying. Remember he was beating him up in the stomping the man out. Y'all remember that video? >> Oh yeah. Well, we was once two [ __ ] of the same kind. Quick to holler at a hoochie with the same rhyme. You were just a little smaller, but you still roll that video. >> Your memory. That's all. >> Yeah. Yeah. So, I definitely remember when he had on all white and he he walked out and he had a a guy playing uh uh uh Red Fox and he introduced him and brought him on into the heavenly gates on that video. I remember that video. But when you look at what they're saying now, how they equated to gang violence and that this was a the Southside Crips versus the Peruse, and you see how she's going with it. Now, these are not people that look like us. This is a actual woman, a clear person, as OG would say, a woman who don't look like us who's telling a story about gang violence and how they're projecting what happened during this time. Do you think that it's it's something that they can follow through their guidelines of what they're investigating or do you think there's more street stuff to it and a lot of the stuff and the details she will leave out? >> Yeah, I think they um Yeah. Well, you know, whites going to always make it more than what it really is not to us. But anywh who when it comes to that I feel like yeah they may have more than what they stand for them to take him to you know convict him possibly um they have to have more with the street game though they want to make an example still of even though it was 20 30 years ago somebody has to take the file for it and it got to be one of these gang members because that's what LA was known for and still known for. What about the other scenario though? What about that other scenario where Diddy came down and gave Zip a a million dollars or whatever the amount was a a hell of amount of money and and Zip gave Kefi D a gun and Ki D goes out and do this because of the retaliation of Biggie towards Tupac. That's another scenario out there. Now, we can't everything can't be true. Baby Lang situation. Uh uh this other situation with Zip, the guy who's dead already. What's true and what's not? Did Did he have anything to do with this? That's another thing that people are saying. >> I don't think Dee did. [clears throat] Bad boy. Take that. Take that. >> Reality TV. You have got quiet over there. Did Does D diddy play any part to this? >> What you think? I Well, I got to be in it. No, I'm just playing. I I don't I I feel like it was a lot going on. And I feel like men love to drop their nuts. >> Okay. >> They got to show who who the baddest, you know, who the toughest, who who who the biggest thug of us. >> We do know that during that time it was a West Coast, East Coast back and forth. And we do know that Tupac and Biggy were going through a hell of a lot and then he ends up dying. So, a lot of people really just went ahead and started saying that was a part of what was going on. But was it or was it not? A lot of people say it was just a a gang retaliation. A lot of people said it was because um u hit them up came out and it was a bunch of stuff being said about people's wives and everything else on that damn song. And a lot of people was equating it to that. So, there's a lot of different ways you can look at it, but at the end of the day, it doesn't negate the fact that he's gone. There's also people that says there was a hit put out on Suge Knight. There's so many different scenarios here, but you got KVD sitting up in there, done wrote a whole book, did numerous of uh vuh interviews, and now he looking dumb. Now he's telling people he didn't have nothing to do with it. He said he was a actually like he brought Tupac uh to death row like he was with him now is what he said in the latest interview but hell he in trouble so he'll say whatever to try to stay out of trouble you know >> I think or he wanted to have this fame of yeah I brought down Tupac not knowing that it was still going to cost him his life even though that is so many years old now everything is unfolding now he want to recant what he said because he it wasn't a Oh. Oh, you the realest. Cuz you killed Tupac. >> Yeah. That man 63. He need to go on. >> You know, NO THAT THEY IN THE GANG. They baby, that's a a high rank. >> Yeah, cuz he he actually bragged about it when the police kicked his door in at his house. >> Take it. >> He bragged about it. He said, "Uh, listen at this y'all. I got to play the end of this. Listen at this. It It ain't that long. Listen." Later on September 7th, 1996, Davis pulls up alongside the black BMW being driven by Suge Knight with Tupac Shakur in the passenger seat. Tupac was fatally shot and Suge was wounded. Fast forward to 2008. Davis is questioned by police about an unrelated drug case and makes statements reportedly admitting involvement in Tupac shooting and is given a profer basically conditional immunity. In 2019, Davis releases a tell- all book called Compton Street Legend by Kei D and Yousef Jaw in which he details the night of the Tupac shooting. He promoted it extensively on Vlad TV and other platforms, but now claims he didn't write it. In July 2023, police raid his home. Then in September 2023, he's arrested and charged with murder. >> We know Kei D, he's not the person who killed Tupac, right? He didn't pull the trigger. Now the state is charging him in Nevada. They're charging him with masterminding the plan which he can be punished equally the same as the person who did pull the trigger. Now over the years there were also many false starts by investigators in LA and Las Vegas that didn't get anywhere because no one wanted to talk. And back then there was little forensic evidence and scant digital data like what police use regularly today. Ironically, criminal defense attorneys and former prosecutors tell me that if Kefi D had just kept his mouth shut, he may never have even been charged. >> Wow. [laughter] >> Boy, the folks on the news is talking. They say if he just kept his mouth shut, >> dummy. He need his picture need to be on the side of that dummy. >> If he would have just kept his mouth shut, this woman just said he would have been okay. >> They It still would have been an unsolved mystery. Now, now the crazy part about him is he he running around here acting like he like he got it going on at his house when they came over there. He trying to tell him, you know, I'm the one that uh they say killed Park. He happy about it. He puts it in a book. So, I agree with you. Uh uh he just saying whatever to try to be this big time gangster mobster and now it's done cost him his damn life. You know what I He thought he were going to be on a lot of podcasts and YouTubetubes and people talking about it. That's what he thought. >> And that's what happened. When you flashing, you talk too much with you, you do stuff, you supposed to be quiet about it. The prime example of shut up when you doing these crimes. Shut up. Nobody want who cares. >> It goes back to what you said. Compton Street Legend is the name of the book that he was uh that he had. Compton Street, [laughter] >> the whole book. >> He wanted fame. He wanted to be on >> Compton Street Legend. >> Name Barbara B. Not Bobby. What was that lady name? That was the white lady that did all the interviews back in the day. >> Shoot, man. You had a bunch of them. Uh Shny Kung, you had B W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W W Walter Kung Kite, you had uh >> You done had a bunch of them, man. Barbara Walters, that's who you talking about. >> He was going to be on the >> Barbara Walters, man. and Keith Ada messed around and throw his whole life away playing games. You know, you play silly games, you get some real silly prizes. You know what I mean? Uh uh this is crazy that he would even take himself and put himself in a scenario that got him in a world of trouble. It says Tupac Shakur mur murder jury selected in Las Vegas for the trial of suspect Dwan Kefei D. Davis. Jury selection in this case against Dwan Kei D. Davis has concluded six men and 10 women making up the jury. Opening statements for the trial are expected to begin Monday, August the 17th in Las Vegas. A jury has been set in the case against Dwan Keidi D uh Davis, an ex gang leader accused of orchestrating Tupac Shakur's 1996 murder. The Tupac murder trial uh jury selected uh uh a jury of six men again and 10 women uh had been uh selected to Man, and the women love Pac. He should have wish he' have got more men. [laughter] Damn. Opening statements are expected to begin in Las Vegas Monday. Davis faces a single count of murder with a deadly weapon with an intent to promote further assistance of criminal gang in Shakur's death. Davis trial is expected to last up to six week and may feature testimonies from Death Row Records co-founder Marian Suge Knight. The former rap mogul was with Shakur the night he uh was killed and is now serving 28 years in prison sentenced to an unrelated voluntary manslaughter conviction. Uh the backstory, Shakur was only 25 when the when he was gunned down in a driveby shooting near Las Vegas strip on September the 7th, which is my daughter birthday, 1996. Shakur was the passenger uh that uh it was in the passenger seat of a black BMW. The night he was driving, Shakur and and Knight had just watched the Mike Tyson fight. He defeated Bruce Sheldon in the boxing match and were traveling to a nightclub where Shakur was uh actually scheduled to perform. At a red light near the Las Vegas strip, a white Cadillac pulls up beside them and a shooting occurred. Shakur was shot multiple times and died six days later while uh Knight survived the minor with minor injuries injuries. No weapon was found in Knight Ora's car according to the retired Las Vegas police detective Clifford Mog who was assigned to the investigation in 2018. The Associate Press reported that the case went cold until Davis began making public statements and his involvement as a leader of the Southside Compton Crips. In 2019, he he published a tell all memoir. The book along with interviews with Davis gave revive the police. It revived the police investigation. Shakur legendary rap career was highlighted by the by more than 75 million records worldwide with which included California love changes and Dear Mama which we didn't mention none of those but those are also bangers from Tupac. 75 million records worldwide guys. Uh this here is a a huge case now. Um, guys, I I I don't know if you understand what's about to happen, but Suge Knight gets to come from the prison in San Diego, and now he'll be over in Las Vegas. It's a little trip for him. He's has 28 years that he's uh got sentenced to. He's done 11 years already. And then he got to walk down 17 more. Um, and now he got to come to trial to to to talk about Tupac. But he said earlier this week, I'm not saying nothing, but I'll be damned if he don't get in that car and bring his butt all the way over there to Vegas so he can have him a little vacation from the people that he's around. Cuz if I don't know if y'all been locked up, but when you've been locked up, just a little bit of vacation to get away from everybody helps you to understand, hey man, shoot. I done got out the house for a day. You know how it is when you just get out for a day? Like, man, I just got out man, man. I was over there. So when he get back, he'll have something else to talk about. And I believe he's going to be happy with that trip. When you got 28 years in prison and you've been locked up for 11 years and you probably been over there at that same spot for uh hell no telling how many years, he going to get his ass up and go over there to Las Vegas where them lights at. Uh I remember I met him in Las Vegas. Let me say that. I met him in Las Vegas when he came in the Palms Hotel. They went to whispering. They whispering and he walks in. I remember I held the dice in a dice game uh at the table uh for a guy who called uh me Gucci cuz I had a Gucci bucket hat on. I remember this. And not long after that, I think he beat a woman up on the strip too next time we was up there. So, he love frequent in Vegas. So, I be damn if he don't go to Vegas. I bet he'd be in Vegas for this trial. Uh uh my people still there reality TV. Uh there she go again. She's in the building, guys. She got a friend with her today. Um man, like I said, closing. And I'll let y'all both close uh and say some final things. Uh whether it's for Tupac, Kei D or Suge Knight, what would be the thing that you would say leaving this conversation? >> RIP died a day before my birthday for Killy Pop. >> Whoa. [laughter] >> He should have said what he said. Keep your mouth. It is what it is. That's that she go again with that bush. >> Go ahead. Got it. Okay. All right, man.
