Tupac Shakur’s closest friends and family rolled the rapper’s cremated ashes into a blunt and smoked it just hours after he died, his pal Suge Knight sensationally claimed in a new interview.

The former Death Row Records CEO told People on Tuesday that he coughed up $1 million in cash to have the slain rapper immediately cremated so the bizarre ritual could take place — and because he was so terrified of Shakur’s mom.

“A bag with his ashes was passed around,” Knight said. “His homies rolled him up. They smoked him.

“You gotta understand, that’s what made sense. It was symbolic. It’s like… you keep part of him,” he added.

Knight — who was behind the wheel when Shakur was shot dead in the passenger seat —  claimed he was the only one who didn’t partake.

“I was so happy to say I was on probation — I couldn’t smoke,” Knight said.

“I told his mother, ‘Moms, I’d love to, but if I hit that, I’ll get in trouble.’. I was probably the only one who didn’t hit him.”

Knight, who is currently serving time in California for manslaughter, said he paid a huge sum to have his pal cremated because Shakur’s mom, Afeni Shakur, demanded it just moments after he was pronounced dead.

“She came up to me and said, ‘Get it done. Now,’” Knight recalled.

He said he hesitated because Shakur had told him just weeks earlier that he didn’t want to be cremated.

“He told me, ‘When I go, I want every rapper at my funeral to grab the mic. I want them to kiss me head to toe. Just like in ‘Life Goes On.’” Knight said. “He didn’t want to be cremated.”

After telling his mom he didn’t think he could make the cremation happen so soon, Knight said the rapper’s grieving mom “gave me one of those mama looks, like, ‘Shut your a– up and do what I said.’”

“Then she started cussing me out. ‘Get this sh-t done!’” Knight said, adding, “I paid someone a million dollars cash to take care of it.”

The post Tupac’s friends and family smoked his ashes hours after his death, Suge Knight claims appeared first on New York Post.
