It’s always fascinating to read these things. It gives you an idea of the thought progress in real time.

true it is somewhat of a snap shot in time but it's also a very limited view of what it was like back then. in the mid-late 90s there weren't THAT many people who listened to Hip Hop compared to these days, let alone people who were Hip Hop heads AND had access to the internet AND knew about Hip Hop forums etc

nostalgia will always cloud the real time sentiments...i was too young to see Pac in real time...Makaveli was the first album I'd ever heard and that was a couple months after he passed, so I couldn't gauge how people felt about him as shyt was happening

but one thing that's has stood out to me cause I lived it...is how Kobe is talked about....cause I was a Kobe super stan as a kid...and nikkas HATED him...HATED HIM!

my whole high school year book is people wishing me luck on the future and making fun of me for being a Kobe fan...so when I started seeing the mamba shyt pop off I just stayed with the


cause I took so much shyt rooting for this nikka when he was considered the biggest cornball ever....

say all that to say...makes sense that people wouldve hated Pac in real time...but as a 10 year old in Texas back then, he was a damn demigod

Online hip hop discussions back then were a bunch of cac nerds that listened to nothing but underground backpack rap.

and died before they even reached the apex of their fame and success

I would argue there were more hip hop heads in those days compared to now

Is that even a thing to kids anymore?

I was actually somewhat older enough to understand the climate on how things were in real time. during that time. You had the white media pushing the "thug narrative, controversial narrative surrounding 2pac when he was on the scene in a negative light. Also, outside of maybe your Ice Cube, NWA and Public Enemy who pushed the narrative of Black Power in their songs, Ice Cube actually would go and speak on these things when interviewed, 2pac was direct and in your face with it, he did not hold back anything before he went to prison, after he came home from his 95 bid, he somewhat toned it down, but before he went to prison, he was very vocal and direct with his message and he called out many folks that were so call in the "white society" click.

Dude was young and relentless in his approach with the white media and he called out the black media/personnel who were the gate keepers too, you never knew what he would say when a mic was in front of him, to top that, his music was getting better and better, he was becoming the black hero in a sense among the younger fans, the older generations, our parents, some thought he was a little too harsh and reckless, those who wanted to keep their jobs with white mama and white daddy were trying to shut him down.

As a breh mentioned, whites were saying hip hop was a negative aspect of society, but their kids/teens would start to embrace the culture, embrace the rapper to the point where a rapper did not have to make a "pop" or "crossover" song to sell records to the white audience like they do now.
Rappers could be vocal and direct and 2pac was that rapper who could just drop a single that did not cater to the white audience and still have the number one album in the country. He did not have to change the things he stood for to compromise his image.

White folks/ older, your 25-60 year old crowd did not like that (some), but what hurt even more so was those older whites, the parents, grandparents, seeing their kids, grandkids embrace 2pac and other rappers. I think 2pac got discovered because of one of the big wigs at Interscope Records 7 year old daughter loved 2pac album or single, something like that.

But it's not surprising to see articles by the white media not being a fan of 2pac back then in real time.
