Pac was a performance high school kid and he was very smart. He was a method actor, he was silly and he was a clown. Marlon sometimes called Tupac Palmolive thug because his hand was so soft. There no gangster with hand like that. Marlon felt Tupac was at a turning point in his life and career at the time of his death. He said "I think he would have matured at this point to be the leader that I think this generation could use in a lot of ways because he was that". “I think Pac was about to come to his come-to-Jesus moment where he actually became the philanthropist and the teacher that he honestly could have and should have been. He was an amazing dude. He was a well-rounded dude. He’s missed. And he was silly. We had a lot of fun. We laughed a lot".
