A documentary by a former Los Angeles Police Department officer claiming the death of Tupac was ordered by Sean Combs, the rapper we all call Diddy; is now available to the public after being launched late last year.
‘Murder Rap’ is the documentary, authored by Greg Kading, who headed the task force set up at the time to investigate the shooting of the rapper. He released a book on their findings in 2010, and the documentary is just the next chapter in the story.
In it, Kading claims the task force solved the murder case, tying it back to Diddy, who allegedly ordered the hit. In retaliation, Suge Knight ordered the hit that killed Diddy’s close friend Biggie Smalls.

Based on his three years working the cases, Kading claims that Sean “Diddy” Combs hired Crips gang member Duane Keith “Keffe D” Davis to kill Shakur and his manager, Marion Hugh “Suge” Knight, for $1 million. He alleges that on the night of Sept. 7, 1996, Keffe D’s nephew, Orlando “Baby Lane” Anderson, pulled the trigger. Only Shakur was killed.
Kading alleges that in retaliation, Knight hired Bloods gang member Wardell “Poochie” Fouse to kill Biggie Smalls for $13,000. Biggie Smalls was shot to death on March 9, 1997, just six months after Shakur died.
Over the course of investigating, Kading says that he essentially trapped Keffe D into a situation where he had to give a verifiable confession about the events that led to Shakur’s murder or else face severe charges for another crime.
“If his intention was to just get away with it, so to speak,” Kading told HuffPost, “it would have been very easy for him to not include all the details that he did.”
These extra details, according to the documentary, include the allegation that Combs hired Keffe D for the crime.
The documentary, titled “Murder Rap,” originally premiered in 2015. Based on Kading’s 2011 book of the same name, it’s available on iTunes now and will debut on Netflix in the spring.
