Personal experiment.

I have no comment on his personal life....because I never follow that stuff for celebs....but I loved his music back in the day - bumped that sh!t all through high school! I've listened to a LOT of genre's of music, from a LOT of artists and would still would listen to pac any day of the week.

I know it's still rap - but Tupac's music had some great messages behind/in it. Much cleaner and not relying on shock value/degrading women/etc like today's crap. I would name him, biggie and Dre as my 3 favorite "big name" rap artists without thinking twice.

If you didn't listen to Tupac, you missed out IMO.
 
In this interview he shows he knows how the system works. Streets, police, government, military. But a man with a rough past, and a positive vision having seen everything from the bottom of the pits to the glory of high class, he was a dangerous force to the people in power cause he wanted to gain power by positive change in the rough communities.

Back home you actually see people like that, but they have fresh $200 pair of Jordans... but no car or even a bike.

But im not a rap fan at all but ive been hooked on this tupac guy. He knew that if he went to vegas, he would be killed. Reports say he died a week after the las vegas shooting, but others say, and even big stars today say hes hiding in cuba cause the thugs didnt want him dead, but the government wanted him dead because of his influential power and vision of peace.

looking at coroner reports factual news stories, and eye witness accounts, it could very easily be the case that he isn't dead and actually hiding somewhere.

Tupac weighed around 170 lbs. See the coroner's report. Never once in his life was this 5 ft 9 man weighing 215 lbs.

Get out your tin hats! Seriously. Elvis also hiding in your basement? :frusty: The guy was not out for good. He wasn't. He was filled with hate as it is all over his music.
 
Sooo your best explanation to the coroner's report consists of tin hats and elvis? Seems legit, sorry i was way off. Im gonna keep wearing my tin hat though if thats okay with you :).
 
Answer honestly, who is Tupac Shakur to you and what is your 100% honest opinion of him?

Without looking at other posts I'd say he was a guy trying to make his share of money while trying to enlighten the world of the culture of violence in the streets of the inner cities. Ghetto gospel and Changes are still some of my favorite songs and I think they mean a lot more to the people experiencing what he was talking about in the songs. Sure he acted the part and had some thugish music, but that is just what kept him relevant and padded his pockets.

I wish it was possible to fix our "hoods" and to make everyone in our country productive, but no one has come up with a way. It is a complicated problem, and unfortunately the hardest part is trying to motivate the people themselves to enact change.

Not complicated at all.
You want people to work?
Stop paying them to NOT work.
You want to curb crime?
Ramp up punishments until the tipping point is reached.
The tipping point is what I refer to as where an individual realizes that the reward is not worth the risk.
Turn the prisons into labor camps instead of hotels.

See? Not complicated at all.
