Tupac‘s biological father, Billy Garland, has revealed his disappointment in the recent Hulu docu-series, Dear Mama: The Saga of Afeni & Tupac Shakur.In March, a trailer was released for the upcoming documentary, revealing its premise of exploring the relationship between the Death Row rapper and his mother Afeni, who was a Black Panther.Earlier this month, in a clip from a The Art Of Dialogue interview, Garland revealed that he was somewhat “disappointed” when he saw the Dear Mama docu-series.
