Director said in a documentary ; Tupac turned up to shoot this scene and forgot to write his verse ; he then sat down 10 mins before the scene wrote the verse and knocked this out ; director was stunned
As a musician that wrights his own music, I can elaborate on how difficult that is especially if your not feeling the music or in a mood or whatever the prob might be, thinking to ouch. Shit like that. You really gotta be in the zone. And I think the struggles that he faced he was able to turn his pain into art/music on command ultimately
Lmao he wasn’t really playing the guitar 😂😂😂look it was a part where he took his left hand off the neck of the guitar to puff his cigarette and the bass guitar was still keeping the tempo
Life is too short, I feel trapped Hoping I don't get caught, watch my back Lost in the traffic, heartless and tragic Don't wanna get my ass kicked So I walk in this mindless state, and this dope make me feel this way I tell ya Life is a traffic jam, I'm stuck When will you realize you're fucked? Don't try to change my ways, I'm hopeless Victim to the games we play, stay focused Watch for the crazy ride, don't lie High 'til the day we die It's my life Tell me if you feel me I tell ya Life is a traffic jam sincerely Stretch your mind, spoon feed your soul Three voices you can't control Remember Life is a traffic jam Life is a traffic jam Life is a traffic jam Life is a traffic jam...... You'll be forever missed. Viva Tupac !!!!

Thandiwe newton was so nervous meeting pac apperantly, but she pulls off this movie role so well. You can feel pacs influence and message to the world hit her. Not to mention tim roth, the only guy to take these kind of roles.

I can almost guarantee Pac would have killed the role of Django. Not to take anything away from Jamie Foxx but imagine if that was Pac shooting up shit in the mansion at the end, with his own song playing over the top.
If He would lived believe mee will dominate the Hollywood industry movie makerz huge Will be keep hatin on him hez the goat n legend remain till the end of time 4 all da haterz n bias azz's no 1 in nation😎can't be duplicte
@@talkdattrashimmapullyacard4396 I've just noticed something strange. If you type thandie newtown and 2pac in youtube almost every video has a crazy amount of dislikes. Its weird.
Life is too short I feel trapped hoping I don't get caught watch my back lost in the traffic heartless and tragic don't want to get my ass kicked .. Rip makaveli Tupac Shakur the 🐐
My bf was there in the audience he had a SAG and tells all meeting TUPAC was the highlight of his career as he asked PAC to pose up with a photo with him and PAC showed my bf ultimate respect on the set

I'm already knowing 2pac could write a verse like that like a cook can make a burger.

@@RVCAXD Exactly,As a poet we look at everything as poetic inspiration.There is not such thing as writers muse.
@@jdrobinson3468 Sho nuff man Sho nuff
Oh, thanks! You got the fact information.
Tupac so ahead of his time
Claro. What a miss nowadays somewhere i guess. Just hope he didn't finished as Maradona somehowe 😅😉🙏🤍🖤
"I may not change the world; but I will ignite the spark who will"- makaveli. He did.
Wish he never sold his soul damn PAC u knew how dirty the game was G
Pac's verse give you goosebumps
Ikr
Bro that shit is difficult as fuck, he sing and also keep playing the bass. I didnt know that Tupac used to play bass
Factual
Pac was one bad mothercuker on that base guitar
Lmao he wasn’t really playing the guitar 😂😂😂look it was a part where he took his left hand off the neck of the guitar to puff his cigarette and the bass guitar was still keeping the tempo
I don't think he's actually playing bass in the video....but the song is nice
He wasn't playing it
He did play guitar decently though... my friend went to school with him at BSA and says he was good
@@mightymac1005 EXACTLY,, THERE'S A STUDIO FOOTAGE ON THE SONG GOOD LIFE, AND HE TELL THE GUITAR PLAYER HOW TO DO IT ON WHAT NOTE AND CHORD.
As a poet Pac is definitely in his element here
My inspiration
Life is too short, I feel trapped
Hoping I don't get caught, watch my back
Lost in the traffic, heartless and tragic
Don't wanna get my ass kicked
So I walk in this mindless state, and this dope make me feel this way
I tell ya
Life is a traffic jam, I'm stuck
When will you realize you're fucked?
Don't try to change my ways, I'm hopeless
Victim to the games we play, stay focused
Watch for the crazy ride, don't lie
High 'til the day we die
It's my life
Tell me if you feel me
I tell ya
Life is a traffic jam sincerely
Stretch your mind, spoon feed your soul
Three voices you can't control
Remember
Life is a traffic jam
Life is a traffic jam
Life is a traffic jam
Life is a traffic jam...... You'll be forever missed. Viva Tupac !!!!
"Stretch ya mind. Spoon-feed ya soul!" STRETCH (Tim Roth) and SPOON (Tupac Shakur)
I wish we had more Tupac films. He would've been a huge actor now.
I think by now in his 50s he'd probably be in politics
@@ProseCombats 100% he would make his own political party for sure
Tupac was a master of rap made it look easy when in fact it’s extremely difficult
To find the rhythm and keep up wit it is definitely difficult. Especially when it’s know beat, just a pattern
That’s the very essence of “ GREATNESS “, to make something that’s extremely difficult appear easy.
"3 voices you can't control" 2pac
2pac was real street poet
Exactly.
They say Pac never had flow. What a guy!
His flow was on another level.
WHO are these guys men I never saw a pac hater
@@florentin4061 man there's a lot of 2pac haters believe me i'm facing them daily on social media
Not sure whoever said that, never heard it
How has 33000 only watched this....guess there aren't that many real PAC fans....this is epic tupac....greetings from Ireland....life is a traffic jam

I swear if Pac had made a whole album like this 🔥🔥🔥
Pac's verse is 🔥
Mans was a genius ahead of his time RIP 21 gun salute.
When the pianist was feeling the words. Who wasn't with him.
Pac wrote this in like 5mins right before the scene was filmed, fcking genius and the goat
This one of the many reasons why he the 🐐
A poet you mean?🥂

This lives rent free in my head whenever I'm dealing with DMV or court stuff smh things that are absolutely mandatory should be free everywhere.
[Verse 1: Eight Mile Road]
Land of the Free, and home of the enslaved
Till the concept of time
6 hours, 22 minutes, and 3 seconds, I've been standing in this
County line
By the looks of the Gridlock outside
Its gotta be about 3:39
Everybody rushin' from place to place
The looks on their faces ain't no different from mine
Both of us look like we just worked a 9-5
See, but when I clock out
I'm not looking for stress, but for the kind share
Since I started this county line shift
Huh did I say shift? I mean this sentence
I've heard nothing but sirens outside the door
How much you want to bet there's an ambulance rushin' a shot man
O.D. man, police abused black man to the hospital?
Now what they rushin' for is my interest?
Rushin' through traffic jam to get to emergency room traffic jam, that suppose to be a free clinic
Only to hear if you have or don't have insurance
It ain't nothin' but survival of the fittest
So what they rushin for?
And damn this man at the window is slow
The concept of time has us all fucked, and on top of that
Life ain't nothin' but a traffic jam
[Verse 2: 2Pac]
Life is too short, I feel trapped
Hoping I don't get caught, watch my back
Lost in the traffic, heartless and tragic
Don't wanna get my ass kicked
So I walk in this mindless state
And this, dope make me feel this way
I'll tell ya, Life is a traffic jam, I'm stuck
When will you realize you're fucked?
Don't try to change my ways, I'm hopeless
Victim to the games we play, stay focused
Watch for the crazy ride, don't lie
High till the day we die, it's my life
Tell me if you feel me, I'll tell ya
Life is a traffic jam sincerely
Stretch your mind, spoon feed your soul

You did that 👏
I like it
King of Hip Hop
best flow I've ever heard! R.I.P MAKAVELI
y'all some haters I swear I got happy when I saw 2pac the G.O.A.T , respect the realist
Why does this video has so many dislikes?😡 come on its 2pac?!!?
Cause a lot of people who don’t like 2pac shits crazy
because rigged against his message
I was wondering the same thing
Probably because of the woman
Probably the low quality.
This is something that is unbelievably amazing..
That bass and piano run down at 0:50 , absolute mind blowin writing there
👍 Love this vibe from this music 🎶
I can hear the seeds that helped plant Kendrick.
What is that suppose to mean who is Kendrick
@@armagedon0264 kendrick lamar
Pac the Genius 💪🏾
Prior to this movie, I had heard of his rap greatness but it wasn’t confirmed in my mind until I heard this.
R.I.P. Tupac Shakur!
Who still watching in 2022 💯💯💯
so damn nice!!!
Great movie and great song ,R.I.P. PaC you are great man - we will remember you all over the world !
This is so mystical to see Pac here! This is legendary scene not long before his death!
Dopest song I’ve heard in years.
I love watching the end of this movie for this scene. Pac & Tim Roth had a long future in film. Imagine Pac in a Tarantino flick.
Totally underrated this,
Pac would have been a great actor for sure,
Thks LA
I can almost guarantee Pac would have killed the role of Django. Not to take anything away from Jamie Foxx but imagine if that was Pac shooting up shit in the mansion at the end, with his own song playing over the top.
PAC was definitely a jazz lover
“ *Stretch* your mind, *Spoon*-feed your soul” …… Clever
Who ever hate this you don’t know poetry and you ain’t living yet
Don't wanna get my ass kicked big facts 💯🔥🔥
Tupac the guitar lord.
That's a bass
Francis Brasilis yes it is a bass, a bass guitar
If He would lived believe mee will dominate the Hollywood industry movie makerz huge
Will be keep hatin on him hez the goat n legend remain till the end of time 4 all da haterz n bias azz's no 1 in nation😎can't be duplicte
When you listen to Shock G explain PAC’s voice, you can really hear the resemblance to Dr. king. Two leaders gone too soon.
1:48 Pac's verse
Bet he woulda made a killer guitarist
This should have million views by now...
GREAT movie! Great cast, real life script -before it's time, indeed. Watch the signs...
Pac was a bass guitarist.. it's a little known fact
What's with all the dislikes?
Rougé - trying to figure that out too. Maybe the quality? Or because Tupac isn't really playing that?
I know right 😲
@@talkdattrashimmapullyacard4396 I've just noticed something strange. If you type thandie newtown and 2pac in youtube almost every video has a crazy amount of dislikes. Its weird.

I don't understand either. Every upload of this song is full of dislikes.
CockRoachist the woman talked too much
Because it’s fucking embarrassing.
@@emilyhardy96 Because this is widely known as his worst song. Many many many people hated this.

I got the shivers when I read this.. wow
A red light ain't a traffic jam
Damn that's so true. If it was only green, they could've kept moving.
@Surya Darry dafuq? Who loves who? Show no love. Love will get you killed. Love is evol spell it backwards. There is no such thing a love.
