R.I.P



post up your favorite joints, memories, self written poems, bars..whatever the fuck you want. celebrate the life of a man who appreciated art for what it was.

I guess ill go first...


memory: first time I ever heard "holla at me".. unlike the mass majority I wasnt wow'd by hit em up..for the time.. it was cool. hip hop was mostly subliminals then.. this wasnt no guessing game. anyhow: I remember feeling like damn.. Pac really getting at Big. It was more on the "norm" side of things..where you had to *know*..


favorite joint(s): unconditional love or me against the world.


I have no self written poems.

I havent listened to Pac in a while. I get like these moments where I listen to his stuff a lot and then drop it again for a year or so.

My best memory would also be Holla at me. That song.. man its dope. When he said "you a shell of a man. I lost respect for you ninja we can never be friends" in as like fuck... that's how you diss someone.

Smoked my first weed to Krazy. That was dope.

Dear momma-
Keep your head up-
Hail Mary- "penitentiary is packed with promise makers, never realized the precious tyme these bitch niggas is waisting ...institutionalized... I live my life a product....made to crumble" <--- I mean
Only fear of death.... "They wonder if I'm hell bound, well hell cant be worse than this, cause I'm in hell now."
Ambitionz as a ridah....those 4 piano keys....complimented with a few string of violin ...then the beat....

Pac had a distinctive cadence, and delivery, vocabulary.... truly a poet....
"My name has the most shout outs in the history of rap...."

funny, yesterday I was checking some old 2pacs records and today I coincidentally see this 

as for Pac, I think he was overrated among the general public saying he was the greatest rapper of all time among Biggie, an absurd position if you ask me. however I alslo think he was sorta underrated among the hardcore rapfans who found him too popular, at any rate he was dope at what he did, and pretty unique 

as for songs, theres many, I think his collabs with Scarface was tight, "Smile" especially, and "Call it what you want" with Above The Law. "Ballad of Dead Solider" showcases his strengths, even tho released post mortem. "How long will they Mourn Me" was also great, etc.

Pac' is forever up there among my favourite rappers, and only 2 belong in that even to this date. The other is a white boy from Michigan who is thankfully still alive.

I loved his whole double-album All Eyez On Me.

Other tracks I love are Changes, Brenda Got A Baby, Ambitionz Az A Ridah, tbh too many to list them all.

Every time I blaze a joint, I always quote this:

"Smoking bomb-ass weed, feelin' crucial!"

No lie.

i honestly wasnt a huge fan. I WOULD buy all his CD's, but typically there was maybe 3 or 4 tracks i would like on each one. when everyone was all about Tupac i was on my WuTang shit

when i was a youngster, i really liked Dear Mamma, and Keep Ya Head Up . . my favorite joint is the Smile collab he did with Scarface

In the event of my Demise
when my heart can beat no more
I Hope I Die For A Principle
or A Belief that I had Lived 4
I will die Before My Time
Because I feel the shadow's Depth
so much I wanted 2 accomplish
before I reached my Death

I have come 2 grips with the possibility
and wiped the last tear from My eyes
I Loved All who were Positive
In the event of my Demise

As far as songs go.. there's too many...

Smile, pain, soon as I get home, until the end of time, 16 on deathrow, baby don't cry, changes, me against the world, happy home, unconditional love, heavens got a ghetto, breathing, last ones left... Literally his whole discography...
