Young Noble challenged Snoop’s version of the Pac-Nas confrontation, criticizing exaggerated retellings
In a recent interview with The Art of Dialogue, Young Noble, a member of the Outlawz, challenged Snoop Dogg’s version of a famous confrontation between 2Pac and Nas that took place in Bryant Park in the 1990s. Noble expressed his frustration with how the story has evolved over the years, calling out various exaggerated retellings, particularly Snoop’s.
He clarified the details, stating that Nas, accompanied by about seven people, approached 2Pac and his entourage, which numbered around 30-40. According to Noble, Nas was calm and collected, walking up without hesitation to speak with 2Pac. “It was as gangsta as it gets,” he remarked, dismissing the embellished versions of the event that have circulated in the years since.
Noble specifically addressed Snoop’s retelling, where the Doggfather claimed Nas had 2Pac surrounded. “That version was the most off,” he said, explaining that Snoop might have misunderstood the situation, especially since he wasn’t present with 2Pac at the time. Despite the correction, Noble offered respect for Snoop, acknowledging that he may have simply misinterpreted the events.
