Ice Cube: Tupac went too far in Hit'em Up

[Skooby]

I think he's talking about the Faith Evans shyt.
-------------------

“I think he went to far. If I’m mad at you trust me I could think of five verses for just you. I don’t have to go at your family, your kids, your whole life. It’s one on one mano a mano in a way”.

At the 25:45 mark:

 

[MJ Truth]

He’s speaking from the perspective of someone in their 40s or 50s(?). Pac never had that opportunity.

 

[KingJudah2]

Ice Cube don't have any other gear than Black LA fitteds and black t shirtS? nikka always wearing that

 

[Juggalo Fred]

Cube getting soft in his old age

 

[puppetmaster]

I understand Cube’s point from a technical emcee point IF we were just having a battle


But it’s hard to say someone went too far since everyone perceives threats and disrespect differently.

Some are content walking away from conflict. Some will fight you to the death over the wrong kind of stare

Especially if Pac truly felt Big let him get set up.

It makes sense why Pac was going at anyone and anything Big was affiliated with.



Like @MJ Truth said Cube is speaking as an elder

Nas for instance won’t even perform ether now but in late 2001/ early 2002 he was swinging that hammer at everyone that tried him.

Pac was 25 years old when he passed, and very much a student of the art of war. .. that gets lost so much in things people expected of him when they speak on his career.

Really, Tupac was way too moist in his diss. Battles supposed to be about skills. Tupac violated . He should have shot the 1 or battled. nikka was bringing all kinds of other people into it

Now when I came out, I told you it was just about Biggie
Then everybody had to open their mouth with a motherfukking opinion.

That's why they were brung into it

love cube but i got to disagree for one it's hypocritical did or did he not call eazy a fakkit and diss jerry heller for being a jewish man

so there that's second the beef stem from him getting shot and biggie did not give him heads up so from pac's perspective it already went too far.

and third did'nt he bring mc ren's personal life up etc so cube being hypocritical

Wrong

He didn’t diss him for being Jewish...He got at him for being The Jew that broke up the crew

Difference

Son of a Black panther rapping about killing the kids of people who weren't even involved in his shooting. Of course Pac took it to far,

 

[Harry B]

Wrongfully convicted, new shyt happening every day, backstabbed by “friends”, drugs , one of the biggest stars in the world, early 20s and on. It’s hard to say what one would’ve done in that position.

Being 50, comfortable, experienced, only problem in life being your hair growth, kids in the age Pac was and on.. yes your perspective will be different.

 

[Justin Nitsuj]

So he's not referring to the sickle cell part? I honestly think that's the only part that he went too far on.

 

[DJ Paul's Arm]

2pac could have never beaten biggie with a battle . He did it the only way he could.

dap + rep. Mad nikkas gonna juelz the point but this is true.

Everyone loves Pac for his passion and emotion, but a lot of that negative energy ended up baccfiring on him.
