GLADYS KNIGHT BEFRIENDED TUPAC BEFORE HIS DEATH
Slain rap star TUPAC SHAKUR found an unlikely soulmate in soul legend GLADYS KNIGHT in the months before his death after taking his mother and record boss SUGE KNIGHT backstage at one of her shows.
Despite his hard image, Knight reveals Shakur softened up in her company and the odd couple chatted about all manner of topics.
She recalls, "One time at a show I had an opportunity to talk to Tupac and Suge Knight for three hours in my dressing room. They both came by with their moms.
"I know they had their own trials and tribulations, but we got to talk to each other like human beings, and they opened up. They were just a couple of guys at that point.
"Tupac was saying how much he longed to have conversations like that, and that it was such a myth that his generation was fighting against ours and didn’t want to hear what we thought. He got killed not too long after that."
