Big Hit says that Keefe D's arrest doesn't provide any closure in 2Pac's death.

Big Hit, the father of Hit-Boy, says that Keefe D’s recent arrest offers no closure for Tupac’s death. Speaking with AllHipHop’s Chuck Creekmur, Big Hit discussed the murder case and death of the legendary rapper. 

“Sh*t, got to just stick to the code, my n***a,” Big Hit said. “I’m feeling for everybody. It’s a f*cked-up situation on both sides. All else fails, just like anybody knows, just got to stick to the code, my n***a. And just keep your f*cking mouth shut. I don’t give the f*ck what happens.”

“That’s still not even enough, man,” Big Hit further said. “It’s like, man, he was so great. He brought so much to the game. That loss was just bigger than Keefe D … This whole situation, man, that was f*cked up. It was a great loss, man. He can’t be replaced. Nah, this sh*t ain’t going to be no closure. It’s just going to be water under the bridge, sh*t.” Later in the interview, Big Hit spoke with his son about their experiences working together, their individual musical influences, and more.
