In a crazy way, I still feel Pac hasn’t gotten his proper due as an actual artist. The only people that can appreciate or even quantify what his art was were the consumers of it. Pac legitimized Rap music in a way it hadn’t been prior. You get those few special songs that can convey a message or feeling that hits home in no other way. I think as time passes his brilliance in vocalizing the trials and triumphs of a generation will be properly acknowledged but this is just one of the many examples of the type of timeless classics that Pac made.

Let me bold the rest of that for you, playa.Because it's damn sho worthy

Just picture me rollin'
Flossing a Benz on rims that isn't stolen
My dreams is censored, my hopes are born

Love it as a Pac stan when brehs realize Pac was good, but just dawns upon them one day that his shyt leaves you like :whoo:


My lil brother's 9 yrs younger than me.He started getting into rap around '05.Biggest Lil Wayne stan on the planet at the time.

He would always try to clown me about listening Pac..."He plain.He too simple.He got energy, but his punches are weak!!"

Fast forward 10 yrs later.Lil bruh than grew up and got a baby boy of his own.Matured.Got a lil hair on his chest now.

Nicca had to break down & hit me with that confession one day:

"Breh, I was tripping....That Pac go hard.I get it now.That shyt go hard

"





I just hit him with the

I always took that as people that have an extremely narrow view of what lyricism is.

The lyrical argument is just an extra component to the argument like whose the best guitar player in rock history or something like that. I always felt that being a top emcee wasn’t exclusive to top lyricism. If that was the case Ras Kass and Canibus would be on the Mt. Rushmore.

His songwriting ability was what I was getting at. I feel like that set him apart. Only southern artists were able to get close to that level of emotion imo and a big reason for that was the blue/soul tradition. Just the very art of songwriting itself is what I measure Pac at since he’d passed the need for exotic lyrical compositions a long time ago.
