It is kind of sad that Tupac's mother is still whoring out his name to make a quick buck............
He could rap, I give him that. He wasn't a studio gangster like most rappers are........he actually lived what he rapped about. He was a real person. Damn shame to see a real person's good name being whored out after his death.
a one off
haha, what a stupid topic!
if you think about it, tupac made 50 cent, G unit and eminem.
when pac went to death row he couldnt believe how much dre was just riding and told the ***** to get off his ass and do work, and pac got him back into it with california love.
dre founded the whiny, white eminem and he has his own shite record label with half-asss rappers.
As for pac, the one and ownly who has made THUG LUFE which almost everyrapper mentions, including lame ice cube who still trys to stay in the game but fell off after ''put your back into it''.
All the stuff that rappers rap about today pac founded but he meant it, it came from the heart, others just do it to sound thug and street i.e B.I.G.
others just rap about how gangsta they think they are, *cough* ice cube.
Eminems crap aswell, hes trying be something that hes not, just got lucky since hes the first white rapper in a while and wont shut the fu-k up with his lame lyrics. Turns out hes just another white racist after the finding of his tape, download it, ''the source racist tape''.
pfft, pac was only famous when he got to death row, how many times his ''all eyes on me'' go platinum?
cant believe topics like this exist, Pac is the founder of todays rap with his potent, politcal and relevent topics, i just hope that more tracks are found and brought out so i dont have to listen to other rappers like... ice cube.

i am sure you make a revelant point, but i am not gunna read all that, cut out the fat of that post
To just answer the thread titles question: No
plain and simpily. I havent heard any true emotion from 50s lyrics, hes been shot and hes got pleanty of dough and ice, thats all i hear.
Whereas Pac was the first rapper to get me into listening to real music, stuff that strikes feeling. Songs like 'dear mama', 'brendas got a baby' 'keep ya head up', some of his songs even made me cry I think i did when I watched the 'keep ya head up' video.
You cant even compare them. And I always hate it when the media refer to someone as 'the new...'
Tupac
lol the fact that anyone could possibly compare Tupac to 50 Cent says alot about that person. Tupac was the most inspirational and intelligent rapper/song writer to ever exist. Whoever said shit about Ice Cube apparently knows NOTHING about rap. Tupacs message was so strong. Someone in here compared Tupac to Biggie, and that is so pointless. The two of them are in total seprate categories. Biggie's gonna win hands down when it comes to flow. Biggie was a swinger. When people say Tupac was the greatest rapper, they mean what he had to say was more relavent..more potent..more meaningfull. Tupac sang about things that mattered in todays world. He was one of the most intelligent young men I've ever seen. Yeah, Tupac became more popular when he died, but obviously. Death is a huge thing, who wouldnt be blown up by the media in the music industry after a death. Tupac only became more popular after by introducing him to people who hadnt heard of him. Obviously death is gonna cause publicity, therefore introducing him to more people. Tupac was more intelligent at the age if 18, then the majority of 40 year old males out there. He understood what was going on and he wanted a change. There are real issues going on in the world, and what made him different was that he wasnt afraid to address them. As one of outlaws said, "Tupac's life was about becoming educated, but his childhood was on the streets, and the streets are about crazyness, he was an educated nut". Tupac rapped and wrote music because thats what he loved to do. He'd write almost 5 songs a day. That was like his oxygen...writing lyrics. Tupac was true, and noone will EVER compare to him. I can easily say Tupac was the worlds greatest rapper, and 50 cent isnt even a millionth of what Tupac was, so whoever started this thread simply knows nothing about Pac and what he was about. To the realest man who ever existed, noone's ever gonna top that. "Its time for us as people to start makin some changes, lets change the way we eat, lets the change the way we live, and lets change the way we treat eachother, u see the old way was workin, so its on us to do what we gotta do..to survive.." and to the guy saying why worship Tupac so much...in the words of Biggie...."IF YA DONT KNOW, NOW YA KNOW N*GGA"

Whoever said shit about Ice Cube being a good rapper apparently knows NOTHING about rap. Tupacs message was strong and empowering...he inspired people like no other rapper could possibly do. Someone in here compared Tupac to Biggie...thats like comparing oranges to apples. The two of them are in total separate categories. Biggie's gonna win hands down when it comes to flow.
