What was Pac's secret?

[NvrCMyNut]

No he's not. Eminem's fanbase is mainly white while 2pac's was more global and multi ethnic/racial. It's like the difference between Elvis and Michael Jackson.

MJ sold more than Elvis. Em sold more than Pac.

 

[Whooty Chaser]

He was a jack of all trades and a master of all of them. Most complete rapper ever with his blend of lyricism, concious rap and gangsta rap.

GOAT (this coming from a nikka than was 1 year and 1 day old when he died)

 

[Youngblood Priest]

Illmatic wasn't even the best album in 94 funkdafied,creepin on the come up,the diary and ready to die had more buzz than illmatic in 94,but on the internet it's praised as the greatest thing ever.

It still didn't take 4 years to go gold it had more buzz than that 2pacalypse garbage.The world is yours>>>>When my homies call

I never said pac was some unknown nikka either but he wasn't praised as this god/messiah like he is now

That's what makes him great tho. If it was just because he died, nikkaz wouldn't be talking like that 20 yrs later. That let's you know he the goat.

 

[IllmaticDelta]

MJ sold more than Elvis.

This hasn't been proven
List of best-selling music artists - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



but MJ was clearly more known on a global scale

Em sold more than Pac.

but he's not bigger/globally known.

 

[Nomad1]

he never even did a world tour foh, he blew up after he died and I'm 37 homeboy new age fan my ass

you need to go on world tours to be worldwide? Check his chart history after matw. nikka you're such a clown and a revisionist.

 

[iseetrolledpeople]

Sound corny but he spoke from the heart. That siht isn't heard with the ear, it's something else. Idk.

R.I.P. to the God of Rap, 2Pac.

 

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

MJ sold more than Elvis. Em sold more than Pac.

MJ lived to be 50+

Em is 43 with damn near 20 yrs in the game.

Pac only had a 5 year run and died at 25.


It's really amazing when you think about it...but the anti Pac brigade is filled with the hopeless

blinded by the hate

bruh these cowards been dyin a thousand deaths since "Trapped" was released... prolly a thousand deaths per yer. If they only knew that a soldier dies but once

[IllmaticDelta]

Pac has that global/race and ethnic barrier crossing love that Eminem doesn't

 

[PhonZhi]

He was wanted by women and guys wanted to live his lifestyle. He was respected by the hood, yet still got respect from people who were focused on lyrics.

Charasmatic, had a lot of talent, full of energy, incredible work ethic, and ultimately also a sex symbol when he was alive. All of that is extremely important to the media...which is why he was always in the spotlight. He was always outspoken and rather intelligent for someone who did not have the best education. Dude basically had the complete package as an artist/celebrity...tough to match. He was a once in a generation type of artist....thats why you have not seen anyone else just like him since he passed away.

perfectly said

 

[OC's finest]

charisma and passion breh

Pretty much this. He was easily relatable to the masses too, his music was for thugs, but was still relatable to non thugs.

 

[Mac Casper]

Tupac was a once in a lifetime talent in the songwriting department. The greatest songwriter the genre has ever seen and there's nobody else who's even in the same category of standard that he set

 

[PhonZhi]

the older i get the more more i appreciate Pac.

This song is so relevant today:

 

[AllHolosEve]

the GOAT wit Tech n9ne next... I cant say you been through some "real life" shyt if you cant feel "MATW", sometimes it feels like the worlds fallin down, word to David Bowie... Pacs the best cause even though he talks about money he talks about what a regular breh goes through, others do too dont get me wrong.. Im goin through some shyt right now, guess who I wanna listen to??? 2Pac & Prince...
