Tupac Shakur's hologram image at the Coachella festival was such an epic event it's hard for people to stop talking about it.
Fans of deceased icons wonder what it would be like to see the likes of Notorious B.I.G., Heavy D or Aaliyah on a similar stage at some point in the future.
Vibe.com caught up with Raekwon of the Wu Tang Clan to get his thoughts on last Sunday's show.
"That's incredible," Raekwon tells VIBE. "It's beautiful, b. All I can say that it's live. It's wild when you see it. It looked like his spirit. That was brilliant. I tip my hat to Dre because it really shows the sense of love he had for Pac. Just to see someone do it for the first time ever. We only seen sh*t like that on TV."
Chef said he couldn't help but think about Ol' Dirty B*stard while watching the show.
"It made me think about Ol' Dirty, too," Rae says. "I would definitely have to have a understanding with his moms. I think it all starts with [her] respect level. If [she] want us to do it and they feel like it's cool that's when we would continue to move on and do that. I wouldn't jump up out of the blue and just say 'yo, I want to reincarnate your son this way.' I think it's important that you give moms respect for her son."

Residents of Glendale, Calif., you’ve been warned: Kim Kardashian wants to be your mayor.
In an un-aired clip from Sunday’s “Khloe & Lamar” posted on RadarOnline.com, Kardashian tells her sister Khloe that she’s going to run for mayor of Glendale, a suburb of Los Angeles, in five years. They’re driving around Dallas pointing out the Ross Perot Museum as she reveals her grand plan.
“I decided I’m going to run for the mayor of Glendale,” Kardashian says. “It’s going to be in like five years. So I have to buy a house there, you have to have residency there.”
Kardashian has picked one of her friends to run her campaign. She plans to work her heritage to her advantage: “It’s like Armenian town,” she says of Glendale.
The city of approximately 200,000 is home to more than 50,000 Armenian-Americans, according to the 2000 census. Will that be enough for the 31-year-old reality TV queen to get elected, or will another heavily made up ingenue be driving past her home one day musing as she did about Perot?
“Ross Perot,” Kardashian tells her sister, “I remember when that guy ran for president.”

Mystikal, who was just released from prison in January 2010 after serving six years on a sexual battery and extortion charge, is headed back to jail.
A judge sentenced the 41-year old Cash Money rapper to three months in jail on Monday for violating his probation following an arrest in February on a domestic abuse battery charge.
“It was an unfortunate incident between two people who have cared a lot about each other for 10 years,’’ said Roy Maughan Jr., Mystikal's attorney. Maughan also added that his client has two children with the victim.
One of the stipulations of Mystikal's probation was that he remain arrest and conviction free according to The Advocate.
The sentence begins on May 14.

Tupac Shakur's hologram appearance at the Coachella festival was such a hit that a mega tour is being discussed according to the Wall Street Journal.
Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg are reportedly already in talks regarding two tour scenarios.
The first one would be a stadium tour that would feature Dre, Snoop, Eminem, 50 Cent, Wiz Khalifa and the Tupac hologram. This tour in all likelihood would shatter every previous record for hip hop shows depending on the amount of dates scheduled.
The second scenario would be a scaled down version of the previously mentioned tour that would only include Dre, Snoop and Tupac's hologram. That one would take place in smaller arenas.
Both would be great shows, but the stadium trek would bring excitement not seen for a hip hop tour since 2000's Up In Smoke jaunt that featured Dre, Snoop, Eminem, Ice Cube, Xzibit, Devin The Dude, Westside Connection and Kurupt.
Would the stadium tour be the greatest in rap history if it happens? Take our poll and let us know what you think in the comment section below.

T.I. has been granted permission to travel more which is good news for the Atlanta rapper, his family and the producers of his VH1 show T.I. and Tiny: The Family Hustle.
Tip had been limited to only 7 days of travel at a time outside the state of Georgia. That number has increased to 12 days after a judge signed off on a request submitted by T.I.'s attorneys.
According to TMZ, Tip received a glowing report from the judge in the case, who cited his completion of his required drug/alcohol counseling program as one of the reasons to grant him more freedom.
T.I. now has five months of supervised probation left.

Frank Ocean continues to build anticipation for his debut album by dropping gems like this. The Odd Future crooner's unique brand of soul music is what sets him apart from most others.
This latest video was originally a fan made joint until Def Jam decided to make it the official visuals.
50 Cent traveled to the UK recently to present his SMS Audio headphones at The Gadget Show Live 2012. While there he took some time out for an interview with Metro. Fif clarified that there is absolutely no beef with Dr. Dre over his headphone line. He also talked about the importance of celebrities paying close attention to the products they endorse to make sure they are up to standard.
Check out the interview below.
You’re a huge international star who would have drawn a massive crowd whatever your choice of venue. Why did you decide to launch your headphones at the Gadget Show?
For me, this is the coolest place outside of the US.
So what do you think of Gadget Show Live and how does it compare with the big guys?
The show is great and you can spend more money here walking around, as there’s a lot more to buy.
There are plenty of products here that have been endorsed by celebrities; what’s your view on that, and would you buy anything endorsed by a celebrity?
Some of the products are pretty good that celebrities endorse, but towards the end of those deals I’ve seen it go bad with companies not being in the space they projected themselves being in... That person's name is associated with products that are not high quality and does damage to their brand and the perception of that celebrity because they see themselves on really cheap stuff.
What do you make about the stories in the press about a so-called feud between you and Dr Dre over headphones?
There is no feud. I just saw Dr Dre two days ago in Los Angeles. We got a chance to talk and he’s going to be mixing records for me on his album.
Are there any plans to bring the charity side of your project to this country?
Yeah, what I’d like to do, as this is our first step towards turning SMS Audio into a global brand, I think we will be exploring opportunities to work with real established charitable organisations in different territories to make it apply to that specific area.
I Think the charity side of your work is brilliant since you are putting something back.
Certainly, it’s the way people will be more open to us. First the artists will follow me the same way they followed in looking for equity involvement in companies that they are endorsing - the vitamin water deal [from which 50 Cent made hundreds of millions of dollars] influenced them to do the same so I’m hoping this will be something that trends.
People have said your work ethic sets you apart - that you are incredibly hard working - but do you worry that one day you will burn out?
No, when you work and you are doing something that you are passionate about, you don’t. Let’s say I exercise the 'whistle while you work' concept. I really enjoy what I’m doing so I don’t feel like I exhaust myself doing it.
Depending on which reports you believe, you’re either rich or very rich. Now that you have the kind of money that means you can have virtually anything you want, what do you do for kicks and what gives you that rush that only buying something you can only just afford gives you?
You know what, in the beginning, and it even ended up in the title of my music, the culture of hip-hop, like, if it ain't about money' it don’t make sense. And that concept comes from finances being that big restraint in front of you.
When you have enough success you start to look around you, sort yourself, and you come up with what’s really important to you.
You’re not after a specific amount of money, you're after happiness, you start to be more conscious about what your legacy will be or how people will perceive you by your work later.
This is when those Street King Projects and SMS Audio come into play, where you’re connected to the philanthropy and try to make a difference and have a trend and people follow you and have it effect things in a major way.
