Michael Jai White discussed how 2Pac's career could have gone had he chosen to stick with acting before his untimely death. Notably, he mentioned discussions with Quincy Jones' son, QD3, who highlighted 2Pac's intentions to release his Makaveli album as a free mixtape. They also recall conversations with Allen Hughes around how 2Pac was inspired by John Singleton and wanted to mirror acting relationships akin to Robert De Niro and Scorsese. They further compare Pac to Drake, explaining how street credibility and praise from powerful figures could have led to Pac embracing a “thug role” in acting. Opinions are shared about the importance of perception over reality in fans’ minds, implying that Pac could have been successful in this direction given his natural acting ability.
