Late last year Dexter Isaac, the self-proclaimed shooter of Tupac Shakur at Quad Studios in 1994 put out the book From Friends To Enemies<\/em><\/strong>. One of the main takeaways was Dexter\u2019s claim that Tupac\u2019s onetime friend Randy Walker better known as Stretch was involved in the setup. This claim is very questionable. However what is a fact is that Tupac and Stretch had a falling out as a result of the event. Tupac felt Stretch was complacent and could have done more to protect Pac. Prior to that Stretch was a very integral part in his career.<\/p>\n

Tupac and Stretch had initially befriended each other through their ties with Digital Underground. Stretch would help produce and be featured on a couple tracks from 2Pac\u2019s 1991 debut 2Pacalypse Now<\/em><\/strong> including the track \u201cCrooked\u201d. He then became more involved with 2Pac\u2019s next project, 1993\u2019s Strictly 4 My<\/em><\/strong>. This included producing the album\u2019s powerful leading track \u201cHoller If Ya Hear Me\u201d. During the recording sessions Stretch appeared on an unreleased version with his group Live Squad.<\/p>\n
