I get what you’re saying, but no one is saying he’s like Pac though, especially not intellectually. They’re saying he’s the Pac of their generation, it’s metaphorical . He has the same significance to them that Pac had to the Gen X generation.
That's a fair explanation👍🏼

All these cats CIA creations.

Yeah Tupac was fueled by a totally different kind of rage.Having a heightened sense of awareness can actually feel like a curse at times.Their was a side of Tupac that was a visionary.Soul of a wise old sage.Clairvoyant.

A lot of these new rappers are boyish.No substance.Just a bunch of drug induced emo shyt.You strip that away from them, all they can do is sit there and look at you like a dear in the headlights.A lot of these dudes won't like me saying this, but they shouldn't compare these new age weirdos to somebody who sat at the dinner table with Geronimo Pratt & Afeni Shakur.Pac had a completely different kind of pedigree.Like I said, these new cats don't have shyt to fall back on.I think Tupac was just another child of the movement suffering from PTSD.It was pretty common.His sister Sekyiwa spent two years in a depression clinic.Positive & ambitious as he seemed in a lot of his songs/interviews, deep down, he was disgusted with the world he was given and ready to make an early exit.

The fact that game was making me bop my head and feeling like he killed it and then YB comes in and i'm just like :mjlol:
lets me know i'm def out of the loop with this guy :russ:


This one is hard. 🔥 This is Game out of his element and he bodied it. One of my biggest gripes about YB is how he doesn’t stay on beat. He’ll say a bunch of mumble jumble shyt fast without regards to the flow of the song. That’s what the yn’s like but he was on key with this one. Added to the rotation ✔️

to add to it, this was produced by DJ Paul and later on YB's verse got taken off supposedly cuz Game didn't pay him and i can see why :mjlol:
