20 Years Later, Tupac Shakur's Genius Still Haunts Us

Spot on

I could never figure out if he was running from or running toward something, but I knew I was willing to follow him wherever the journey took him, and me. The journey, in Taoist fashion, turned out to be the destination. In retrospect, I wish he would have kept more of himself for himself. It’s not coincidental that he hasn’t even been allowed his own death.

Everything about Tupac belonged to us in the end.

Reading this makes me think about Moses.

Before death row, before East vs. West, we all had love for Pac, and he gave it in return. Signing 2Pacalypse Now t shirts and posters for the youngstas, choppin it with the hood at video shoots, a solid dude that just loved his people, real talk.

Yooo @Walt Pac is my GOAT and all but I'm a huge Kool Keith fan.

That's ill that he's blood.

In lots of ways he might be the realest rapper I've ever heard and solely the reason I've told lots of folk to wipe my ass in my lifetime.

That last part was touchin breh.
Pacs music is beyond powerful. You described everything that a Pac fan feels when listenenin to his music.

He didnt need big words and metaphors to paint a perfect picture.

Rip to your cousin and Pac.
Keep this work comin, well support.

It's indisputable.

Very well done @Walt as usual. I was especially touched by the way that you managed to pay tribute to Pac, your cousin (my condolences), and your old hood at the same time. You conveyed your emotions and feelings so well that I felt them. Flawless writing.
