    The fact that a 22 year old Tupac made a song with this much meaning and maturity in it is insane. He truly was a genius, no other rapper has this kind of intelligence and compassion in their songs that could really impact the world. That’s why Tupac is the 🐐

      Tupac was a wonderful human being before be a rapper. He was a big revolutionary before be a rapper. The fact is he was a powerful rapper too... they killed him because his potential was a danger for the politicals, he exposed the system who is against us. you got 2 know some people used 2pac's death to robb his legacy, his royalties from his music cause he made so many songs and the industry killed him to not pay him for all this.

      no it fucking didnt. you just got lazy and stopped trying to find good rap. mainstream rap has ALWAYS been about useless topics. kendrick in some ways is even bigger than tupac and biggie, and his music is all about the "message." people like you speak so universally about the state of rap nowadays, but it really just boils down to you being too much of a prude to go out and look for music. mainstream rap has never represented all of rap dude, like ever.

      which is why i dont blame the parents , u know when deindustrialisation hit the US alot of the middleclass and labour black people used to get was cut and many were left jobless , due to no income coming and people not being able to find jobs alot of people were forced into drug trafficking as a way of getting some money to get by , i find it hard to see how u can pass the blame onto the victims of neoliberal brutality and a lack of attention given to members of society by those who were in charge of development ect ect .
      On top of all this u of course know the mortgage schemes and all the rest of it which made it even harder for minorities to survive giving them no way of of those drug ridden areas and the rest of it . All of thse factors against people and u point ur finger at the parents like they had a choice , many didnt , its not even as easy as moving areas to places where maybe u can find a job when people are racist and force the black minorities into certain areas such as chicagos black line where blacks and even if u manage to move to an area with a ok job market racism within it would have stopped you from getting ur hands on that job .

Had a mental breakdown for a couple of hours because I’m scared of being alone and doing this alone. I’m both excited and extremely terrified at the same time. Listening to this song gives me hope ya’ll I know I can get through this with God by my side. Bless ya’ll especially those single mothers doing it alone keep your head up!

      @@florenceganiyu6758 I’m aware of that- I said I listened to it a lot when I was maybe 16-18 and had identified with pac saying “don’t cry, dry your eyes etc” due to being young and pregnant and scared. I am not saying the song is a bad thing, I am not disrespecting pac or his message.
