"So what you are saying is that out of his hundreads of songs, dozens of videos, and seven films. That Hit Em Up was his highlight of his career I don't think so."
I do. I do think so because even now, if you ask any random person "Name something to do with Tupac" they'll either mention his death or his feud with Biggie. Which hit it's peak when he put out Hit Em Up. Which is the biggest diss track of all time.
I think Pac had some great songs and it's a shame he is known mostly for his feud and death. However, the reason why he is known mostly for Hit Em Up is because sadly, the diss track is the track that appealed to all of the Hiphop community. All of his songs about ghetto life in LA don't mean shit to someone in London or NY. When he dissed another global rap phenemenon, everyone gave them his attention.
If you look at the facts and the events in the feud, the reason he made that song was on evidence thinner than a wet wafer. He did it because he knew that he cannot live by targetting one audience.
He wanted to be someone who would change the world or wanted to say something that led to changes in the world, sadly and yes this is true:
He wasn't intelligent or quite frankly, as good as he thought he was. His desired status was far greater than the status he could ever achieve.
Sorry to say that to you but as someone who's followed his career from Digital Underground, you are in no place to tell me about him.
