I can tell that story about Pac was official because Mic tells it that same way everytime.(when you LIE you have you have to remember what you said but when it's TRUE it flows off your tongue like water.)
Pac always had time to show new artists love or hear them out, notthe first time I heard him doing tha a real one. As for Turd, the name Gotti got to his head before he even did anything significant smh remain Never forget where you came from and who helped you along the way period
What the fuck has been going on with these weirdo ass niggas lately in the comments jumping in sounding like some females or little kids with the ‘how you know, was you there?’ shit? I been seeing that a lot recently...
Pac was always a genuine dude man. Clowns was hating & trying 2 get @ em 4 no reason. They even h8 now. 25+ years after the man's death. MG seems like a real stand up guy. I gotta watch this entire interview @ 1 time. Good story bro!! 💯
Because pac is the embodiment of everything these so called rap dudes wanna be articulate believable thugged out real background story heart the dudes really felt him the girls loved him unconditionally classic albums classic beefs survival acting films he’s the greatest all around rapper ever factz the only other dude that comes close to me is x.

Fam... Math and the crew needed to break night with this interview. Mic is literally a hip hop archive. This furthers my ongoing push for Canibus because in the little wonky rinky dink HipHopDx and College Radio interviews he's doing he's getting into so much detail and giving so much history on the thousand words behind so many historic hip hop pictures and moments with Lost Boyz and G Rap and Dogg Pound and Snoop and The Firm that up til this point there have only been pictures but no footnotes. We need Canibus on the show just like Mic is on right now. I want y'all to ask Mic Geronimo & Canibus about the freestyle... The infmous freestyle at the restaurant with both Mic and Canibus, Big Pun, John Forte, Mos Def and DMX... I pray this legendary day is in one of these clips and if not I pray it's a question you ask Mic his next time on or Canibus his first time on 🙏🏾
Pac`s former bodyguard Frank Alexander said in his first book that people would constantly test Pac when he was on DeathRow when he did shows, and Pac was constantly getting into fights and whipping niggas a$$es. And it was the same with other members of DeathRow. He said everybody on DeathRow was getting into brawls including MC Hammer. He said nobody on DR was soft.
No cap, as symbolic was 2Pac was, especially then, meeting mic Geronimo, prob made him smile, especially since he said mic Geronimo huh?, thinking about his Godfather Geronimo Pratt who was falsely locked up … Pac paid attention to allegory and was just in tune like that …
@@zitiboylilo5789 I have a cousin who worked for death row, she used to tell stories for days, but I spoke on symbolism, saying the key word “symbolic” but besides that I also said what else he paid attention to and how in tune he was … smh
Not really because with Irv 50 would've never been able to become this huge megastar. It was Dr. & Em who made 50 and 50 adding to it but Irv was never able to make a megastar who could transcend from music and do other stuff and be successful. Ja Rule is doing club shows now, 50 is still selling out arenas around the world.
@@PaperOnlyGang Yeah, it wasn't about Mic Geronimo and having his own show then. They had other couples and it was more about his wife at the time. Heather B was the first.
False. Tupac was too enamored with the street life but thought being the son of a Black Panther made him untouchable. He turned his back on New York by going when he started blaming Big for the Quad shooting.
@@Polostar79 false. Pac never said biggie had something to with him being robbed and shot. He clearly stated if you so-called proclaiming yourself "king of New York " you would have known who set me up and told me who robbed me. Biggie wasn't no shot caller bro, he was just a rapper
@@gilbertbrown4183 PAC knew he did that to him and he made it seem like Big and Puff had something to do with it and all u have to do is read the Vibe article to see him dry snitching.
He previously said how Irv would wait in front of hot 97 to catch whoever was doing the morning show so he can play mic's music... So why was dude reluctant to work as hard and do the same for his own career. If I was Irv and saw that I would be frustrated.
Math. This interview is so compelling it’s great!! Your show has surpassed what many thought it could do. Do not lose the secret sauce of what makes this work!! Keep up the good work!!
The event’s of this timeline is wayyy off. So, he thought Irv was working at blunt records after getting Hov and Dmx signed to Def Jam. Irv put the Hard Knock life album together. Holla Holla was definitely in heavy rotation before the hard knock life tour.
Mic Geronimo could have his own podcast or be an integral part of a great podcast. Someone should give him the opportunity because his story telling, patience and clarity is exceptional.
When they did The Inc. compilation....it was then I heard the whole Irv tryna replicate Death Row chatter and then around that time...they tried to sign NaS.
Yeah. Ja, outta nowhere and totally unprovoked, even dissed Snoop on that The Pledge (remix) with Nas and Ashanti. Irv, Chris and Ja were dick-eating Suge big time in that time period. I was always surprised Snoop never responded, although Daz and RBX dissed Ja Rule.
There was an interview years ago where Jungle (Nas's younger brother) was saying that Nas signing with Murder Inc. would've been the equivalent of Pac signing with Death Row.
I was thinking how Pac's godfather was Elmer 'Geronimo' Pratt so when he gave Pac that CD Mic Geronimo. That caught his attention it's a powerful name.
Ja literally was trying to replicate Pac for a minute...remaking his photoshoots and I can't remember if it was a song or interview or something where he was talking bout the 50 beef and was screaming that he was Pac reincarnated or some dumb sh*t...it was embarrassing
It was during the DMX beef when Ja got on the radio screaming, "Ya'll niggaz wanna see Pac come back? It's here nigga!!" 😂😂😂 Ja was so extra, and really thought he was the reincarnation of 2Pac or somethin'.
@@aholmes74ah he sounds like Ja Rule, that's his voice. Ja was still the same when he was in a group called Cash money click before he got a solo deal and before he met dmx.
Bro story all over the place. He had me lost for a sec. He went from seeing Holla Holla on MTV to talking about meeting Pac for the first time. Holla Holla came out in 1999, Pac died in 1996. I had to stop and think about that shit for a sec lol.
I think the train of thought concerning both those events go parallel with the contrast in Irv’s action. Here you got Ja being catapulted in 99 while mike is being snubbed. Ja had strong pac vibes irv put together multiple songs with pac verses and adlibs but according to Mike he was the one that forged a relationship with pac and subsequently the label, both events tell a story and give you insight
Not feeling how MIC making it sound like Pac was letting mofos bump him amd he wasn't ready to give it up he was in Brooklyn at Tilden H.S around Juice time and he definitely was on go if mofos was on timing. But kool story
Nigga that’s what happened. No need for feelings lol. That night he prob knew to not turn all the way up and also Mic said he had the i’m tired of turning up kind of demeanor that night.
@@theonewhoisbetterthanyou3570 bro.. Me and my brother would fight anywhere on anyone.. One day I got mad I cried.. Lol... Told my brother I'm tired of beating niggaz up.. Just because you can fight makes it fun.
I always envisioned Murder Inc replicating Bad Boy.They way they fused HIP Hop with RandB.Hardcore lyrics with RandB sound.Nothing like Death row.I guess he means personality-wise but not musically.
In reality, BadBoy was replicating Death Row. Juicy was inspired by the West Coast's G-Funk movement. Shit, even the Versace silk look was completely jacked from them. Murda Ink simply merged elements of Bad Boy and Death Row and came up with a winning formula
@@kinghas_nyc False..Bad Boy dropped a single in 92 with BIG.Party and Bullhsit under the Bad Boy imprint.Death row first single under the D.T. imprint was Snoop , Whats My name in 93.What are you talking about?The Chronic was on interscope and not Death Row.I am talking about Death Row the label.
I always said Murder Inc. was a poor man's version of Death Row. Especially with Irv having drug dealers and gangbangers from NY signed to the label as artists to offer more street cred because of the 50 Cent/G-Unit/Aftermath beef made Irv and Ja Rule look like cupcakes in the streets
Jewell . Jewell sang on Multiple hits from NWA(Ruthless) to Deathrow. Suge didn’t push her as an artist unfortunately so she didn’t reach that level of success. But all of her features are undeniable on so many successful classics
Ironically, if you trying to be a boss or a "Death Row", you gotta be down for the "idiot shit" too... It's a sign of dominance, leadership, and power to not let your mans get into some shht... especially if your mans is a "cash cow"... You have to command loyalty through not only intimidation but also through protection... Protecting Mic would have been a power move... There will never be a fearful clone of Suge Knight... They shoulda backed Mic up... Either way, mimicking "Death Row" and having a "When the money comes, this this and that..." mentality is just a bad idea... If you aren't who you are BEFORE the money, you have literally no idea what you will become when you get the money because your growth has been stunted through fear, and "waiting" on the bag to become a big man. I like Mic, he seems very genuine, a fearless little dude, I like that shht...! And this has been a great interview. Thanks once again Math... I ignore antics and watch the quality of things and this is a quality show... love listening to this shht at work!!!
I never really listen to Mic G music but after hearing his story I'll check his joints out that why I fuck wit dis channel hip hop insider's spiten they shit
I say No Limit copied Death Row more than anything, Master P, and C Murder copied Pac’s cadence & flow. On top of that, the posse picture No Limit took with everyone wearing all black was clearly inspired by the Death Row Vibe magazine cover
MIC a stand up dude! No lie after Pac died, I gravitated towards DMX bc he had the passion and image of Pac (even tho it was his own). Pac is by far the most influential rapper of all time! He might not be Top Lyricist but his music touches the soul of man, for that he’s Top 4 now and forever!
U signed to TVt talking about I knew a Split was coming . Bruh the split was already made. You emotionally reacted instead of mentally. signed with some white people and didn’t rock with your mans vision. “Everything was moving so fast “ mic didn’t become water and ADAPT. His only purpose at this point could be to knock the door down for Irv rule and gotti. Geronimo is a proverb for ALL up and coming talent. 1st off know what you want out of this game. # 2 do not be afraid of movement
Nobody told Mic you don't have to jump out the whip & do stuff when it's your whip & u driving lol *Also, 15 minute story about the tragedy of weed spilling on the floor & protecting the next roll-up 🤣
Murder Inc. also drew heavily from Ruff Ryders. Irv focused a little too much on marketing and image (despite the tattoos and imagery, Ja Rule was more a club rapper than a voice of the people like 2Pac) but he actually assembled quite a talented roster. Fantastic production team.
I always enjoy the build :) Please get an animator , and double up on these stories :) I would so watch , again 😎 each of you can lock in your likeness, and here comes some hip hop action figures ;)

I never really listen to Mic G music but after hearing his story I'll check his joints out that why I fuck wit dis channel hip hop insider's spiten they shit
Check "survival" produced by havoc its one of my favorites he did, peep the vendetta album
He trying to sound too tough. They guy who Irv gotti made get out the van to give tupac a cd cant be talking like he was running the Tunnel. Lol
Pac not a crazy lyricist but his music moves your soul. Pac is always be in my top 5
Real statement. Pac is not in my top 5 put I understand. Me Against The World is one of my favorite albums of any genre of music.
@@3rdGenerationCancer
Listen to his song Under Pressure. Nobody was kicking shit like ‘Pac
@@apuertorican1773 Dude all you must listen to is Pac. Get your head out your ass
Pac is a lyricist, you just ain't listening well
just because a rapper has crazy punch lines and metaphors don't mean they're talking about anything
Ja could actually rap but the 2 things that killed his career were 50 and him trying to be like Pac. It’s only ONE Pac 💪🏾💪🏾
Nah, what killed his career was 50 and Ja’s music becoming soft with all the singing.
@@Polostar79 the singing was terrible but it was his best selling music. It did so well people are still copying his formula to this day.
Dis show is way better than million dollars worth a game..Gillie done fuck da show up..I had to stop watching dat shit because a him
MIC GERONIMO IS PROBLY THE COOLEST MC . SALUTE
You can't be biased Mic, you gain connection listening to those people, especially in the 90's
It’s because supreme was apart of death row east and was fuckN w suge back then and that’s irv people
HOFFA!!!! Salute my brother 🙏🏾💯
Mic is a goat. Hip Hop follows radio, and that’s not our culture. Hip Hop is truth
I say No Limit copied Death Row more than anything, Master P, and C Murder copied Pac’s cadence & flow. On top of that, the posse picture No Limit took with everyone wearing all black was clearly inspired by the Death Row Vibe magazine cover
Totally agree. Irv Gotti did try n make Murder Inc the East Coast Death Row Records
So what. Suge tried to make Death Row the West Coast Rap-A-Lot. Everyone borrows from everyone.
@@Polostar79 not hating just stating.
Ppl would always try to test pac. Even Complete Strangers who didnt know him from a hole in the Wall. Its been said by many ppl in interviews.
Portland, JAMAICA in the Building !!
MIC a stand up dude! No lie after Pac died, I gravitated towards DMX bc he had the passion and image of Pac (even tho it was his own). Pac is by far the most influential rapper of all time! He might not be Top Lyricist but his music touches the soul of man, for that he’s Top 4 now and forever!
U signed to TVt talking about I knew a Split was coming . Bruh the split was already made. You emotionally reacted instead of mentally. signed with some white people and didn’t rock with your mans vision. “Everything was moving so fast “ mic didn’t become water and ADAPT. His only purpose at this point could be to knock the door down for Irv rule and gotti. Geronimo is a proverb for ALL up and coming talent. 1st off know what you want out of this game. # 2 do not be afraid of movement
Man I can listen to Mic G stories all day literally
You where talking about the best diss track and you for got about shots fired with styles P and jaddakiss
Mic Geronimo out here looking like Charleston's white twin brother 😂😂😂😂😂
Nigga lying 🤥 bout that pac story 😂
Murda inc didnt have hits…
JARULE had hits..::ASHANTI had hits
Irv talkin bout they cant be fucked with lol
Irv basically gave Black Child, Cadillac Tah, Charli Baltimore, and Vita no push
Keep up the Great work Bro.
Ja rule is a Tupac wannabe honestly
Nobody told Mic you don't have to jump out the whip & do stuff when it's your whip & u driving lol
*Also,
15 minute story about the tragedy of weed spilling on the floor & protecting the next roll-up 🤣
One of my favorite rappers ever!
PAC WAS THE REALEST NEW YORK NIGGA EVER...
Mic G iz madd underrated. A Pac & Mic G track woulda been krazyy
Murder Inc. also drew heavily from Ruff Ryders. Irv focused a little too much on marketing and image (despite the tattoos and imagery, Ja Rule was more a club rapper than a voice of the people like 2Pac) but he actually assembled quite a talented roster. Fantastic production team.
Math what up with a conversation with yayo?
I always enjoy the build :) Please get an animator , and double up on these stories :) I would so watch , again 😎 each of you can lock in your likeness, and here comes some hip hop action figures ;)
You can tell Geronimo ain’t fabricating shit buy the way he’s telling the stories. Salute 💯
I’m trying to understand. Mic was on the Hard Knock Life tour with Rule, after that they went to Freaknik and saw PAC. 👀
So pretty much every 2pac went to New York it was always a issue. Crazy man
This interview boring af
Peace to Mic 🎙 G, shout to my niggas Darcsyde “Doc & Sin” 116 and Suphtin 🖤 147 and Foch you Heard💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥 🔫 I still be rockin dat Nik Nak joint you did wit da Gods when they was in the “A” and that “evil that Men do” wit “50 cent” Yo it’s the evil dat men do/It’s all the Same💥💥💥💥💥💥💯🌹❤️🫡 Salute the Gods
that l&p weed was so fucking fire..... them dubs was like 7 grams ...😇 94-95 was nothing better
Linden and Powell that's a fact.
@@dsteelz81 some of the best shit I ever put in my lungs . Heart and Lewis , bushwick and cooper … Putnam .. I we was taking cabs to them shits from south side
Salute to LP best spot in Bk back in the days
Much Respect To NYC, But Deathrow and the WestCoast had the most influence in this
Rap Game 💯💯💯
Too right respect to NYC but deathrow and they only hood in NYC QB QUEENS WERE ON TOP OF THE GAME LA LA DROP A GEM ON EM PAC AND NAS MET AT THE PARK QB WAS THE ONLY NEIGHBORHOOD REPPING
Math you killing em right know💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
Mic got a great story but damn this nigga taking forever to deliver the puch line
Brooklyn was not letting Pac breathe.
What's in a name?
In 'Letter to the President' Tupac raps'...ride for Mutulu like i ride for Geronimo...' , and Geronimo Pratt was an active Black Panther, same as Pac's step dad (and father of Mopreme Shakur) Mutulu Shakur, I bet Mic Geronimo's name alone made Pac like him from the get go.
We need the O.C interview
The timeline of the story is back and forth all over the place. Dude talking about dmx album, to holla holla, to back to Pac
