Tupac and The Notorious B.I.G’s murders have continued to fascinate us decades after the rappers’ deaths.
Biggie Smalls, real name Christopher Wallace, was killed in 1997 by an unknown assailant by a drive-by shooter, with Biggie’s family later filing a wrongful death lawsuit against the LAPD, alleging corrupt officers were responsible for his death.
There were also allegations made that Suge Knight had something to do with the murder.
Tupac Shakur was murdered in 1996, also by an unknown assailant. Conspiracy theories have claimed that he didn’t die at all, and instead faked his own death and went to hide out in Cuba.

However, there’s one person who claims to know who killed both men – and it may surprise you to know it’s Josh Duhamel.
The actor, who split from his wife of eight years Fergie last year, has claimed ‘we all know what happened’ in the murders of Tupac and Biggie.
The 45-year-old stars as Detective Greg Kading on the new series Unsolved: The Murders of Tupac and The Notorious B.I.G, and claims that he knows what went down the nights of the rivals’ murders.

Josh told Us Weekly: ‘The show is called Unsolved, but we all know what happened. And that’s one thing that I think people are going to be most surprised by. We have a very good idea — whether we agree that the police were involved — there were definitely some shady things that were going on. Did they do it? Did they not do it?
‘It’s not what you know, it’s what you can prove, and that’s the tragedy of this story. There’s so many conflicting theories that it’s hard to sift through it all and find out what the actual truth is.’
Josh – who is believed to be dating Eiza Gonzalez – then went on to admit he might believe the whole ‘Tupac faked his own death’ theory.

He said: ‘For all I knew … Tupac might still be alive! They went as crazy as that.
‘One can only hope to have people speculate on whether or not he’s still alive or not. I wish people do that about me, but they won’t. Tupac Shakur was larger than life.’
Unsolved is on the USA Network on Tuesday nights.
