BEEF PAGE
Tupac had occasional beefs with people.  Some were just words, but others might have been a catalyst to the tragedy of his death.
NOTORIOUS B.I.G. (A.K.A. BIGGIE SMALLS)
Tupac and Biggie had been good freinds and had performed numerous times together and even made tracks with each other.  Tupac really gave Biggie his start by letting him come to his shows with him and letting him rhyme with him.  This helped Biggie get his start due to the fact that Tupac was just beggining to become a well known rapper himself and people were at a point where if someone rode with Tupac, then they must be as hott as Tupac.  Noone knows for sure why Shakur became angry at Biggie and began "beefing" with him.  One theory is that while Tupac was giving him his start, Biggie was also getting as popular as Tupac was, this might have made Tupac jelous and angry at Smalls.  The two rappers began to make tracks, dissing on each other heavily in them.  Shakur put out a song titled "Hit Em' Up" which has a numerous amount of slain "dissings" directed solely on Notorious B.I.G. and the people he hung around.  Biggie also had a track entitled "Warning" which had a sole perpose of getting back at Tupac for his song.  The two rappers had their little "beef" for awhile until Tupac was shot and killed on the Las Vegas strip after a Mike Tyson fight he was attending.  Some believe that Biggie Smalls may have had something to do with it and that he was later killed as retribution for Tupac's death.  Noone for sure knows if any of these "ideas" are true, however it makes perfect sense.

DR. DRE
Tupac and Dr. Dre were friends during most of Tupac's Hip Hop life.  However, there was a short time where Tupac could be heard saying dirragitory things about Dre on a daily basis.  Tupac and Dre's relationship was mostly friendly.  They would rap together and they even put out disputedly one of the best tracks yet, "California Love".  Tupac and Dre's feud was short and really uneventful.
