Epps sat down with Larry King Now to promote his new ABC series Resurrection. During the interview the 40-year-old New York native discussed the last time he saw Pac before he was shot in 1996.

“I saw him that night actually. I saw him literally half an hour before he was shot,” said Epps. “We happened to be staying at the same hotel – hadn’t seen him in years. We hugged. I asked, ‘How’s your mother doing?’ Everything was great.”

When Epps woke up the next morning he found out that 2Pac had been shot.
