About this ebook

The infamous Suge Knight, former Death Row Records CEO, and Keffe D are the only living eyewitnesses to the deadly confrontation on the Las Vegas strip between the occupants of our two vehicles. A violent confrontation that led to the deaths of two of Hip-Hop's biggest stars (Tupac Shakur & Christopher 'Notorious B.I.G.' Wallace) and changed Hip-Hop history forever.

There's a strict code on the streets. One that real street players live, kill, and die by. Compton Street Legend reveals the street-level code violations and the explosive consequences when the powerful worlds of the streets, entertainment, and corrupt law enforcement collide. 

More than twenty years after the premature deaths of Tupac and Biggie there have been numerous TV specials, documentaries, books, magazine and newspaper, and social media dedicated to the subject. But at the end of the day, none of the private investigators, retired police officers, informants, Hip-Hop heads, actors, or academics that have weighed in on the topic truly know what happened and the reasons behind it, because none of them were there.

Duane 'Keffe D' Davis, a native of Compton, California, admittedly lived most of his life as a gangster; a real gangster that did the shit that real gangsters do. He rose up the gang-banging ranks to become a shot-caller for the notorious Southside Compton Crips, while running a multi-million dollar, multi-state drug empire. Keffe D has been a central figure in both the Tupac Shakur and Biggie murders for the past 20 years. 

COMPTON STREET LEGEND will add valuable information about two of the biggest "unsolved" crimes in American history. It will serve as the missing piece of the puzzle that Hip-Hop Fans have been waiting for. 

On the surface, COMPTON STREET LEGEND will look like a story based on violence and hate, it is actually a story about Love, Family, Brotherhood, Loyalty, Trust, and Honor.

 It's time to set the story straight. Fasten your seatbelts.

I have always been intrigued about the 2Pac & Biggie murders so I've watched almost every possible documentary, docuseries & etc. Like most, I have listened to Keefe D's confession, so the beginning of this book I just believed that he was making up & exaggerating stories to 'show off' for his audience. by the end of this book that opinion definitely changed. Keefe D was a legit, old-time OG that had intriguing stories about him and his 'empire,' so the book is not just about his partaking in the murder of 2Pac. Think more on the lines of a mixture of the movie Blow & American Gangster. I know all of these happenings have risen from their graves and are in the news again lately. The realest, best thing I can say about this book is that it shows the lifelong lesson of, "You can't trust anybody but God & yourself." &, " The saddest thing about betrayal is that it never comes from your enemies."
