this autopsy might be fluke but he's probably still dead anyhow..

He kinda made being a thug a little sexy and he was a poet, (Dear Mama, Keep Your Head Up) but he had to please the others (gang members, other thugs and criminals, his crew, who didn't do sh*t for him, and people he'd come across) and live that lifestyle and make songs like (I get around and Hit em up) (I think that's where he bashed everyone including talking about nailing Big's wife, Faith). He was too talented and too young be taken away. Now I'm not trying to compare his death with kurt cobain's but to many of us in the r&b and hip hop community and especially to myself and other blacks he was our kurt cobain and it kinda hurt a lot of us, then biggie's death came and it was like a dark cloud for a couple of years, til' Jay-Z, Nelly, Ludacris, Eminem, Dre. Snoop 50 and others came along and some coming back. It's taking some time but we're getting better.

I honestly don't know who took his life (probably Sugh because like Selena, Tupac figured out that his best friend was stealing money from him and probably was going to leave Death Row and did him in) my opinion, but they took a part of us too but they didn't take his soul, spirit, and talentedness away. We're not going to give the bastards that satisfaction and neither should his mom. :heart:
 
Oh yeah not that it should matter but he died on my B-Day 9-13 :cry:
When I was younger I thought if that didn't suck like a mother I didn't know what else did! :angry:

cool, have ya seen the movie "Juice" odd title isn't it, but anyway he was pretty good for a first timer and "Poetic Justice" he played the opposite what the media and the politicians portrayed him (Dan Quayle most notably). He could've been one of the new leading men in Hollywood if he wanted to go that route.

Him, Lennon, Morrison, Marvin Gaye, Cobain, Selena, Elvis, Marilyn, Princess Diana, Freddy Merc. and other young celebs, even Dr. King, were probably like angels who weren't supposed to have been on this earth long are like fate... and sometimes fate is like a knife that just keeps stabbing you but somehow we're all still alive and yet bleeding at the same time, kinda like the way we felt when they died
 
From the interviews I've seen of him, he seemed like a highly intelligent and poetic person, so I really like him :flower:
 
My favorite rapper! :heart:

My good friend in highschool used to love listening to Tupac so anytime we'd bein a car, that would be what is blaring. That friend and Tupac got me liking rap.
 
I love Tupac. His song "f*ck All Y'all" got me through some of my hardest times and remains one of my favorite songs ever to this day.

R.I.P.
 
tupac's death was tragic in that it left people wondering what they would now be missing from such an intelligent, complicated young man..RIP pac
 
maybe I should whip out 2Pac's greatest hits that I own... never have listened to it much :innocent:
 
I LOVE TUPAC. PERIOD.
HE WAS HOT AND THE GREAT POET OF THE HIP HOP GENERATION.....
 
hot in a weird way but he pulled it off just fine, according to all the women he bedded :o

I'm guessing that was some of his lyrics, right?

Here's some of fav.

(From How do ya want it) (radio version)
You mistaken me for Bill clinton, mr bob dole :lol:
You're too old to understand the way the game is told :lol:
You're lame so I gotta hit you with the hot facts
Want some on lease? I'm makin millions, now try and top that

(From Keep ya head up) (1st verse)
think it's time to kill for our women
Time to heal our women, be real to our women
And if we don't we'll have a race of babies
That will hate the ladies, that make the babies
And since a man can't make one
He has no right to tell a woman when and where to create one
:blush: :innocent:
So will the real men get up
I know you're fed up ladies, but keep your head up

parts of the 2nd verse:

I remember Marvin Gaye, used to sing ta me
He had me feelin like black was tha thing to be
And suddenly tha ghetto didn't seem so tough
And though we had it rough, we always had enough
(skipping some lyrics)

And I realize momma really paid the price
She nearly gave her life, to raise me right
(skipping some lyrics)

They got money for wars, but can't feed the poor :(
Say there ain't no hope for the youth and the truth is
it ain't no hope for tha future
And then they wonder why we crazy
I blame my mother, for turning my brother into a crack baby :cry:
We ain't meant to survive, cause it's a setup
And even though you're fed up
Huh, ya got to keep your head up :blush:

A master of lyrics I must say, could've been the lord of all mc's... :cry:
 
Tupac is one the best rappers ever..........

along with old school Dre and Wu Tang.......

One the only rapper who stayed true to his working class roots, sang about misery, racism, troubles of growing up poor. His mom was in the Black Panthers, that definitely influenced him.

CLASSIC! :heart:
