| Summary | Some conspiracy theories claim that the U.S. government, possibly due to Tupac's Black Panther connections, was involved in his murder and Biggie's murder. Proponents argue that the government monitored Tupac from birth and orchestrated his death to silence him. There is no evidence to support these claims. |
| Origin | These theories emerged after the unsolved murders of Tupac Shakur (1996) and The Notorious B.I.G. (1997), often linked to Tupac's mother's Black Panther background and distrust of government. |

| Evidence / consensus | No credible evidence links the government to the murders. Investigations have pointed to gang-related violence, but no official conclusion has been reached. The government monitoring claim is speculative. |
