This is a phenomenal event for Roc Nation. We’ve purchased one of Hip-Hop’s greatest icon’s music which would make us one of the largest record labels in the world. We will forever be relevant in the music industry now that we own Tupac’s music,” Joseph Borrino said.
rapper in the hip-hop industry with and estimated $2 billion net worth.

If i was Jay- Z inwoukdnt have done it out of respect for Afeni Shakur Pacs Mother besides this dude J has enuff to feed the whole entire country damn near so its not a need…dont understand cant have it all even if u tried
I agree
This is business. Who cares if Pac liked him or not? Do you know how many of these big companies don't like us but sign us and make money to send their kids to law school???
Suge needed that bond money!
I’m pissed about it!!! Jay-Z lost me as a fan when he made “me & my girlfriend” 2Pac aing even like u dawg then on top of that u trying buy his music rights? Somebody need to put a stop to this no love having throw all his friends and closest associates under the bus ass dude….every artist that has ever worked for or with Jay-Z has fell off…and never got help….from Memphis Bleek,Sauce Money,Royal Flush,Jaz-O,Beanie Sigel,Amil,Charlie Baltimore, The Rahjaz,Rell, and many more
Smart business move but I know people not gone like r that but who owned them in the first place?
If his mom need the cheese she selling
Hov trip to Cuba was more than a leisure trip.
Not real
Pac was 24
Could be true and this could be MAJOR! It says Tupac’s music only makes about $4million a yr but Michael Jackson made $275 million in one year because of the Sony powerhouse behind him. jay is a marketing genius that can raise the Tupac music to $75 million a year. Plus it says pac makes millions a year more for his “likeness” than his music
True
Good on the business side just hope they don’t start to water down all that classic material
Afeni aint giving up what she faught for…
Yo bro if this is true it can be a good move for Pac’s mom to be set for life because Jay will make sure she profits better than Entertainment one and plus she will probably pocket atleast 5-10% of the sale
Yeah that’s right I remember hearing about that company they brought a lot of that death row catalog even the chronic to
Aw okay that’s interesting
It says Entertainment ONE owns it. She sued them for royalties owed to her for the last album
It last owned by someone else. I think she has ownership of a handful of songs but they sold pieces of it to different companies in the bankrupt case. I know she owns ‘changes’ because that’s the song they let me use for the Tupac foundation DVD
Whoa
It’s a dog eat dog game, y’all! Keep ya mind on ya riches, keep ya mind on ya riches! – Tupac
I thought she got ownership to all that death row material she won that case against Suge didn’t she
Hell yeah 2 Pac didnt fuk wit his fake ass call him alot never did shit about it
Dennis Ballesteros pac didn’t even like him…
I did work for the Tupac foundation and it was only certain music I could use in the video credits of tupacs. His mom didn’t own the songs
Can’t be real Pac momma ain’t going she fought too hard to get it
Good business. Remember when Michael Jackson bought the beetles catalog??? I had nothing to do with liking anyone. $$$
325 million for the catalog. Good business. Both sides will be straight.
It’s smart business
Plus Tupac wasn’t on good terms with Snoop or Dre wow!!
I saw that but I just hope it’s not true… I know time has passed but never sell out your own..just my humble opinion!!
I know Pac’s mom still has the rights to CHANGES
I hope not Tupac didn’t like him…if so they would just rip off his material like they did with Bonnie and Clyde smdh!!
Business
It said this will increase Jay Z worth to $2Billion
