Default Re: Tupac

If you watch Tupac documentary, you will realize that he is not at all a weak person. He had a lot of very rough experiences as a child. He was shot 5 times, two of which were in the head and still demanded to light up a blunt. If you don't think that is hard, or crazy, I don't know what is. I will agree with anyone that says that is stupid, but you can not tell me he is weak.

3) NOT REALLY A THUG

[/ QUOTE ]

Tupac has consistently admitted this in interviews and on national TV. He even admits that in some of his lyrics. BTW, if you think all of his songs are Tupac singing about Tupac, you are sorely mistaken. Just because a song he sings is in the first person, doesn't mean he is singing about himself. A lot of his songs are simply telling a story (from a different persons point of view) or sending a message.

2) His style is repetative ( probably half of his songs are in the same tempo and cadence)

[/ QUOTE ]

50% of his songs are the same tempo and cadence? So what? 50% is better than the most of the other rap artists. Atleast he isn't turning theme songs like night rider into hits.

was tupac overrated? sure he was? but does he "suck" ? absolutely not. it is a damn shame that he was stuck with death row at the end cuz he woulda turned out much greater things on his own.

I don;t hate Tupac. He was a talented rapper. But I really really don;t like any of the beats on his songs. THey all sound a bit like background music on a cheap porn film; cheesy and synthetic.

[/ QUOTE ]Only two of the Tupac "Haters" [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img], responded in this thread(Thank you btw), but I agree with you.

I think he was severely overated, but he was still one of the best.
