    Here is another Tupac reaction video, Tupac's posthumous song, "Changes" (1998), as recommended by our viewers on the last video. I was really excited to show him this classic song. Tupac was a visionary, whether it be the content in his messages to palpable delivery style. Very few popular songs in modern times have had a more important place in social culture than this track.

    Fun fact: Tupac Shakur belonged to the Young Communist League. His entire family on his moms side were devoted communists and black revolutionaries, that’s why Tupac has so much insight on class and race. That’s why his Poetry largely centers around these issues of systemic oppression from class,race,gender, etc. His aunt is Assata Shakur. Infamous black panther and black liberation army comrade. Communism from the people for the people. That’s something Tupac understood

    Have you told him anything about his history. Raised by a strong woman who was in the black panther movement, going to the Baltimore school of the arts, danced ballet, was a poet, actor, activist, and a musician. His work ethic writing and recording music and changing complete lyrics for radio versions of songs so they wouldn’t be censored yet still have deep meaning. I would love it if you played Brenda’s got a baby for your dad and let him know that Tupacs favorite song was “Vincent”by Don McLean which was also played by his bedside in the hospital in Las Vegas (perhaps you could listen to that song together knowing the context and meaning it held for Tupac and those who loved him) Thank you.

    This is one of the most powerful songs in music history! U easily could go on a Tupac reaction series with the kind of impactful songs he has! Yes there are plenty of other great musicians but my god Tupac was truly one of a kind who impacted all. From the broadway plays & college courses on his lyrics to the statues,murals & museums around the world. 2 diamond albums, 1 in life & after death. Acted in movies & tv shows also! Dudes a mythic figure at this point. Lot of people don’t even believe he passed ( but that’s a diff topic) He checks every box tho! People are always curious to see if he impacts others the way he impacted us.
