Almost twelve and rap done went to hell
it's so full of garbage I feel like I'm in a mirage
this sh*t can't be real, but this is what I feel, I miss the days of old when hip-hop emceeing was bold,
a story was told by a west side rider way before this
that rap would make a twist because of the dollars shit
that soon real hip hop will be no more they killed one of the best
and in heaven I hope he rest, he was blessed no matter what, when he died...

Correction: You can't blame Suge Knight for Tupac attempting to become something he wasn't! Which was a Blood! Tupac made that decision on his own! If he didn't want to "set trip" he didn't have to! The only thing Suge was concerned with was Tupac moving units! To reiterate what I said in a previous post "Tupac's life is a cautionary tale"! He should be studied by all these wanna be thug, toy soldiers. Who really think they are gangsters...

Today's hip hop and rap artists have forgotten that connection. Trying to 'hood wink' the community with worthless hooks and content in their tracks; this is why there will never be another Tupac Shakur. Many have proclaimed to be the next 2Pac and many have tried to be Tupac and many have failed to live up to what Pac stood for. KRS-ONE, Chuck D, Lupe, Jasiri X, Immortal Technique, Mos Def, Kanye, Dead Prez, NYOIL, Black Thought, Brother J, Common, Wise Intelligent, Pharaoh Monch...

Tupac Shakur epitomized the phrase "to be young gifted and Black"! Like most young Black men, Tupac was a study in contradictions! On the one hand Tupac was a "Black Nationalist" who used his voice to speak out against Black on Black crime, yet his untimely demise may be linked to an alleged affiliation with members of the M.O.B Pirus street gang! How unfortunate, this talented young brother gunned down in the...

Hip Hop Icon or Bearer of a Legacy - Tupac Shakur
June 16th is the birthday of hip hop icon Tupac Amaru Shakur. His life cut short in 1996 by senseless violence. His murder remains to this day is unsolved.

The 'testimony' of hip hop icon Tupac Shakur (2Pac) is written and there is nothing he can add to what he has left us. Tupac is dead. There will be no new oration from one of the masters of words or no new contentious tracks to make headlines. What we...
