Heaven got a ghetto bar was given

But when treach went on a rant a couple yrs ago he was wearing red I forget what interview it was

He was like everybody say they know pac

But don’t know he was raised as a man in the bay

The mc New York shyt was cool until he heard spice 1

Said listen to the first 3 something or like that

U can hear the influence

Said it was funny biggie gave spice a zero n turned around gave pac what he gave em and spice fathered some of pac

I would say Spice influenced him but his whole style? Nawwww. To me he was like a combination of LL, Chuck D, Ice Cube, Scarface, Stretch, and Big Syke.

And the flow Faizon’s talking about in the video came from Big Syke and Scarface.

And I Get Around saved him not no fukkin Spice 1.

Spice 1 and then Big Syke

Stretch

but they didn’t have apppeal, the deals in place nor the artistry or songwriting prowess to propel their styles to a higher level

Tupac often surrounded himself with rappers that were eerily similar to him stylistically. rappers that a bit more real life street edge and that he had the dramatization skills to blend into their crew but he was actually a kid displaced without a home and to truly be a Big Syke or a Stretch you needed to be raised in and entrenched in a local enclave within a community. You don’t get that background by being a wayward son across the country from where you’re from, at best you can know someone and be connected with someone who is … and that’s what he was, over and over again because he himself is somewhat of a method actor by upbringing

GOAT .. he was only here 25 years and his peers have have 27 years since then to surpass him and many more years of life than 25 and yet their catalogs aren’t even arguably close in value

Pac did use Spice 1 lingo. He straight up ran with Spice 1s “I wonder if heaven got a ghetto” saying.

That was a b side on a 1993 single that didn't become a famous song until it was remixed (twice) after he died so saying "straight up ran with" isn't really an accurate description
