redpill me on tupac shakur. how based was he? who do you think killed him?
i watched the docu "resurrection" and he seemed like an honorable man
He rewrote Bruce Hornsby's epic song "The Way It Is". Bruce Hornsby is the true based musician. He somehow managed to work two extended improvised piano solos in the radio edit of his top 40 hit.

He rapped about the realities of black culture/black communities and the drug trade. Many people call him a hipocrite for gangbanging and then rapping about how terrible that kind of life was. In reality a lot of his music explains how there is no escaping that lifestyle for someone who has already entered. In his song "changes" he explains how he will probably get killed by someone taking revenge for the things he did when part of a gang, which is what ultimately happened.
Although overplayed and made popular by the "fuck the system" crowd. He is still one of my favorite artists, art like that rarely comes out of people of color.
Tupac Shakur came from a wealthy family. He was well versed and classically schooled in poetry, ballet and jazz, among other things. He adopted the 'thug' image and lifestyle because he felt he would be able to capitalize on it, and he was right.
I respect him immensely as a musician and artist. As far as rap goes, he is the best there ever was.

yeah, thats what i learned in the documentary. but i mean, this guy was 25 years old and as i understand it, he had a huge amount of the black community behind him, waiting for his call to move.
i think he could have really stirred shit up and lead people.
>>80356908
He called out the loomynaty on TV multiple times.
>hint
>>80358930
That is my guess as well. He was highly intelligent.
>>80357588
Being the best rapper is like being the valedictorian of juvenile hall.
>>80357258
Gangbanging? He took ballet.
Biggie sold crack at least.
2pac was shit. There I said it.
I'd rather listen to Susan Boyle

Underappreciated line
rat-tat-tat-tat-TAT dass juss the way eetis
The most of the old school rappers are redpilled.
>>80356908
He was a privileged gay ballerina studio gangster with no gang affiliation.

>>80356908
He had a great voice, but he also sang lines like "my mom was on welfare but she still managed to feed us" like that was a great achievement.
>>80356908
2pac was a convicted rapist, not to mention that time where a 12 year old boy was riding his bike and got shot in the fucking head by a bullet fired from Tupacs gun.

Rap is the most degenerate genre of music. Every piece of "music" produced within it is nothing but trash. This naturally applies to anything he accomplished.
As you can see, he dressed like a stupid nigger, which is what all rappers do.
he was a piercified nigger,who can take him srsly?
>>80363260
>mix of music and poetry
>degenerate
how does it feel to live with such a shit taste?
>>80356908
He was nigger dindu who got made good in a stupid gang feud.
>>80356908
He is just a black artist. Black music can barely be considered high art.
>>80363404
>mix of music and poetry
What is supposed to mean? The songs of Schubert were mixtures of music and poetry, as well as that of numerous other composers.

He knew the score but he was a piece of shit who posed for money.
Even if he'd lived to be 80, he would never have named the jew or done anything productive for his people.
>>80356908
>how based was he?
He wasn't based at all. In fact he was one of those militant niggers who were all about "fighting back" and whatnot. His mother was also a Black Panther or something like that I think. If he lived today he would march with Black Lives Matter and rap about shooting white people.
Also, his gangster persona was a 100% fabrication tailored to sell his music.
>>80356908
In retrospect hes actually the enemy, a nigger who was told to start the race war and who refused, despite his hate for white people.
He knew they would lose.
>>80356908
i think suge knight killed him.

i don't think that at all. 2pac was a peace loving and kind man and i would argue that the protests would be less violent if people like him would lead them.

Over rated.
Read about Napoleon, his closest friend in the Outlawz group
He converted to Islam (as with most of the Outlawz) and is now preaching against the hood culture and how blacks should leave this hiphop/gangsta culture and get educated and become good people
>>80365435
Whatever it takes for any of ya'll niggas to get up out of the hood
>>80365587
It's actually really interesting

The jews. No, seriously. They were blackmailing him and he didn't want to play ball.

Reminds me of the asshurt after Kendrick Lamar released Mortal Man.
Pissed off a million dindus with a poem about a caterpillar and a butterfly
>We aint ready to see a black president yet.
