His albums were some of the best selling rap records before he even died. He was already a cultural icon before he even died. People loved him and he was getting movie roles when he wasn’t even that active as a rapper at one point. I don’t think is debut album even went platinum when he got his major movie role in juice.

2pac was more than a rapper. He was loved for things off the mic and he brought a authentic raw energy to all he did.

See? Was that so difficult - that’s the posting of a reasonable & sane man.

Hey, no need to be a dick about it. If you like Tupac, that’s fine too. I just don’t happen to. I listened to Tupac a little back when he was around, and thought he was OK, but I’d never listen to him these days. His songs are just kind of forgettable and, frankly, a little boring.

His lyrics read like junior-high journal entries (N.I.G.G.A. stands for Never Ignore Getting Goals Accomplished…whoa, so deep), and don’t get me started on the music, most of which sounds like lame pop and R&B retreads.

There are exceptions, like this one, which obviously benefits from a little Dre production (when you can’t outrap Dre, though, that’s a pretty good indication your flow is weak).

I don’t follow rap.

Never thought I’d ever soundly agree with Milker on anything, but here we are.

Hey, I like your music too. :grin:

Just to be clear, I had nothing to do with that. Maybe the mod took exception to the ad hominem? I think everybody should be allowed to speak their mind.

Whew! That was so reminiscent of what America used do with Negro music during Jim Crow.

Either way Easy E’s cover sucked.

Rapper’s Delight was my jam in junior high. :sunglasses:

Part of “Momma Said Knock You Out” sounds SUPER gay.

“I’m gonna tie you up and let you understand that I’m not your average man/When I got a jammy in my hand/DAMN!”

“Jammy” probably means gun, but in that context it sure could be a dick.
