Who was surrounded by worse enablers?
Cobain and Shakur’s demons were obvious and well-documented, but they both picked horrible people to partner up with late in their young lives. Cobain married Hole frontwoman Courtney Love, an all-around train wreck and fellow heroin addict who admitted to shooting up while she was pregnant with their daughter. 2Pac became best buddies with Death Row head Marion “Suge” Knight, an intimidating figure in hip-hop who was known for physically assaulting everyone from engineers to Eazy-E–and who encouraged Pac to spew venom and hate at his East Coast rivals at Bad Boy Entertainment.
Advantage: Shakur
