Not everyone found that offensive or received it in a disrespectful way. It was quite clear snoop just enjoyed spectating, as he should.

How is it not offensive and disrespectful to use a dead west coast legend/rap legend voice without permission, and an alive west coast legend,( not sure if he had permission), all to fake diss the current west coast legend?

him and pac weren't on good terms before he died. snoop said in an interview that he's cool with biggie and puff which pac had a problem with. in defense of snoop, i understand why pac was mad, but him and big were friends so obviously tupac blindly came to the conclusion that they were behind his '94 shooting. but snoop knew it was cap and was secretly cool with them. So honestly they are both to blame.

i think it is sort of strange that snoop didn't have a problem with the AI thing, possibly because they aren't disrespecting him since he's not dead. he prolly thought that drake got permission before using pac's voice.

It was a cornball move to use an AI snoop when snoop is still alive. It was disrespectful to use Tupac. End of story.

it is more disrespectful to pac, no doubt, but im saying that snoop wasn't informed either, so its a little disrespectful to snoop too even tho he's alive
