i guess you need to understand his poetry, and grow up in the utter shit that he had grew up in. Name another rapper who actually made lyrics to fit lifestyle as a whole, but in positive ways. Hell yes Tupac was spewing gangsta shit everywhere, but at the same time, he honestly wanted to get people going to help. Not fake ass rappers these days who just fucking write out a check for a couple grand and say that they are 'helping the community"...Tupac used song for this too... take 50 cent for example..who i fucking hate...he starts up some learning foundation...but you never hear about that....it would kill his 'tough guy' image ....you will never hear rappers today singing about that shit... all they want to do is see who has the biggest tires, and can get their next song onto a club dance floor. Tupac grew up in shit, and he stayed around it, he didn't forget who he was. if you guys haven't lived through shit like that then don't talk... "his lyrics make me shutter"...or hi stuff was just all gangsta.... live the life brother...come down to the areas and live a few years in stuff like he did, it would drive you fucking nuts too. Read his lyrics...he wasn't out to see who can create the wierdest shit, or if he can make people laugh by putting bull shit like antlers on peoples heads in videos... or riding around saying he was bigger than God himself. He knew who he needed to respect and who he was gonna disrespect... You have fucking rappers today saying: im a hustla....i can sell water to a whale.... who the fuck cares... why don't you use that damn talent ..put it in your lyrics and sell 'education to a kid" His voice was strong, and it attracted people....people talk about tupac and they remember his life...welll most people apparently... people talk about Bob Marley and they remember weed (not disrespecting Bob, because the guy is tight)...so stop fucking talking shit just because if something is mainstream..then it is totally not cool....live the life brothers and sisters....and maybe then you'll understand.
