We received an overwhelming response
to the VIBE Q with Tupac Shakur ( "Ready to Live"
by Kevin Powell, April ). Several of the people mentioned in the interview
were contacted before the story was published but declined to comment at
that time. After the interview appeared, they contacted VIBE, wanting to
respond to what they felt were misconceptions that arose from some of Tupac's
statements and descriptions. Here are excerpts from their replies, as told
to Fab 5 Freddy.
