I miss Tupac he really had his own voice and since of his thoughts and feeling even when he was misguided he still had power. I think he was the best Rapper of our time.

Since we all came from a women, got our name from a women, and our game from a women. I wonder why we take from women, why we rape our women, do we hate our women? I think its time we killed for our women, be real to our women, try to heal our women, cus if we dont we’ll have a race of babies that will hate the ladies, who make the babies. And since a man can’t make one he has no right to tell a women when and where to create one.

Great song with excellent lyrical content. I memorized this song when it was first released. Growing up I can relate to some of those struggles with my mother. I encourage everyone that they can prevail from the depths of what could seem to be a hopeless existence. Dedication, faith, and a will to be more than what is around you is the call of the day.

I love Tupac! I miss him so much..He did do more than just curse on records. He did take on soical issues. He did speak to kids that were unwanted. He did have emotion, in did feel pain and hurt. He did want blk male in home. He did want more. Everybody talks about the negative,but to me, this brother, had been through SO MUCH, by the time I had even started University. I would lay in bed at night and listen to him before drifting off to sleep. I could feel the pain in his voice, about growing up by himself and his mom being on drugs and not having anyone to turn to…

He was philosophical, too. He would tell the kids, don’t be a dope dealer, become an accountant. Be a lawyer, like Johnnie Cochran, u don’t have to be out here pimpin. Do it legally. He was the son of a Black Panther. I love his mother, Afeni. She made plenty of mistakes, but who’s perfect?

I know Pac would be exceptionally glad to see that we have a new Pres, now. I think that he was changing already and I don’t believe he got a fair rap. Pac is a part of my spirit. And yes, I still and always will love him. He was so honest, about so many things, as time would p*****, I do understand that he couldn’t be here, because people wanted him gone….I just miss,him….

**I know ya’ll gone get on here and clown about the difference between thugs and Barack. I would like to say this. Pac never hurt *****ody. It is easier to put people down than to listen. I’ll be 90 still loving Pac. I miss his spirit. He gave me hoe that things would change, for the better, an to keep going. After Daddy died, he’s the only one I could find peace with…. Yeah, I know 6 am, Haveno*****, and especially Marquis de Sh*thead will be on here talking mad ish, but everyone isn;t going to graduate Harvard and some people did make their money from the streets. So what? Wha have u done, besides go to the local community college and talk dat ish about others? Go head and go play in heavy traffic, don;t forget to take your mama with you:)

“PAY HOMAGE”…?! Really BOSSIP? Think not. Great entertainer…but that’s about it.His “message” was foul and no more worthy of praise or reflection than the back of a cereal box.I don’t miss him.Remember this BOSSIP?:

“***** A THUG!”

It soooo applies here.

@ alwaysknew

u brought tears to my eyes… u so eloquently summarized my and so many others’ feeling about Tupac Amaru Shakur!

(**silent prayer** i pray God is now cradling you in his bosom b/c u were mos def HIS son/HIS gift).

nuthn else for me to say, except eff what anyone else has to & undoubtedly will say abt your sentiment and what difference should it make to you anyway!

This my favorite rap song. …And Brenda’s Got a Baby. Pac taught me that rap music shouldn’t be all about money, hoes, and clothes. He’d be schoolin these dudes in the rap game if he was here. Pac was versatile and multi-faceted,…and he wasn’t afraid to let that realness come out in his music. Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, Kanye, 50 and Biggie can’t hold a candle to Pac.

Rest in Peace.

@ DR FUNK

the comment u left is that of a hater. 2pac DID give good messages in his song via Dear Mama, Keep Ya Head Up, Smile ft. Scarface, Unconditional Love, Changes, Brenda’s got a baby.. I mean dude wtf are u thinking?!?! In Keep Ya Head Up, he’s paying tribute and being the “ears and eyes” of the many women who are single parents struggling to take care of their kids. Living off of welfare or food stamp checks. But even though they cry they stay strong. I mean can u get any more obvious than that?!?! 2pac didn’t always rap a song about the good women because in reality there AREN’T JUST THE GOOD WOMEN out there u dig? There’s the hoes that just open their legs for any dude who looks clean or at the moment, or who just shows off their bodies to get attention. He touched base on ***** lyke that, but so many people just thought he was this horrible ***** person. Yeah he made mistakes he was only human, but he was learning from them and he wanted to reach the younger generation of people to tell them that no matter what they feel lyke they’re witnessing they’re not alone in the struggle. He’s right there along with them, and he’ll help them get thru it with his sometimes controversial but encouraging words.

Mad respect and love for 2pac until the death.

Rest in peace baby boo. I’m only 16 and
know that *****.
