@Walt nice piece...too bad you write for that p*ssy ass fukkboy congregation called the root

What's wrong with The Root?

 

[Walt]

great read but why ain't this stickied?

It was stickied for a day. One of the mods probably thought it ran its course.


Just happy some people read it.

White owned liberal pandering trash. Whoever the owner is works for ebony, which is another rag of a magazine. He used male patriarchy in one of his articles so I already knew he was on some fukkboy shyt

I don't know all that much about the site, but it's actually Mexican owned. Univision own it. No association with Ebony whatsoever.

Pac & walt r the goats

 

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

Pac transcended the genre because he was about humanity.I always called him the most humane artist hip hop ever produced.

In the collective body that we call hip hop, he was the heart/guts.His delivery was gutty, visceral.


And he came to truly serve, not to self aggrandize, or brag about riding a wave of material wealth.That wasn't his main mission.


Most rappers take simple shyt, add a bunch of metaphors/punchlines, and call themselves complex



Pac took complicated issues and simplified them.Brought a level of clarity that made it easy to "feel" where he was coming from.Straight to the point, head on.

I guess it's really not fair.The man had so much natural charisma, he could keep his subject matter "ordinary", and still shine more than most.

In hip hop, he's the master of connectivity.


Like Michael Jackson in Pop.....Bob Marley in Reggae


You have to be born with...gotta be in your essence.He was a natural & nobody's really come close since
