Dr. Dre & Snoop at Coachella – FEATURING HOLOGRAM 2PAC
So by now you know that a hologram interpretation of the late 2 Pac joined Dr. Dre and Snoop’s Coachella set last night.

Game ft. Kendrick Lamar – “The City” Video
Somehow I just watched this video, which isn’t supposed to be released for another hour, on RapRadar, so I’ll embed it here and hope it works. I didn’t love The R.E.D.
