TUPAC IS THE MOST INSPIRATIONAL ARTIST OF ALL TIME......I DONT GIV A FUCK WHAT ANYONE ELSE THINKS.

i think you meant second to Biggie right? Try finding a 2 Pac song that pumps as much as 'goin back to cali'

 

[juggernaut]

i read this crazy site about all these conspiracy theories regarding his death... it was nuts.. i was actually beginning to believe that maybe he is alive

ow... n also i think tupac is inspirational....

he sings about life as a nigga.. n how hard is to live in the ghetto
and also how they cant get jobs because of rascim

How is rapping about how hard it is to live in the ghetto and not being able to get jobs inspirational?

I'm definitely not a 2 Pac hater, I like heaps of his songs and have some of his CDs, I just don't think he was ever able to match some of the big classics put out by Notorious. Another thing I like about Notorious is that he didn't use most or a lot of his tracks to complain about things (as 2 Pac did).

2 Pac may not have been able to get a job in the past as in his lyrics, but he was rolling in the cash when he wrote those songs about not being able to get jobs. Even some of his CDs come with pics of him in Mercedes and wearing expensive chains with his friends.. changes huh?

 

[tooheyz]

hey man he's got a new album out! its on the net

 

[bubz :D]

i wanna download this song, i heard it at pav the other night...
it was released around 95 or 96? i think? i remmeber watchign the video clip.
is it just called "california"? i only know one line and that's
"california knows how to party..."

 

[Aaron1911]

when i ment inspirational i was talking in general... but relating to that song my block, he managed to make something of himself despite what is happening in "his block"

"For the Menensky tribe worldwide (will you please sing along with the old negro spiritual?) The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire. We don't need nothin' but the weed and a lighter, and a lighter

nah its not life goes on

2pac is dead? what the hell is that movie about then... he's like jesus.

 

[Ducky]

Yeah. I agree the rappers on the radio now are nothing compared to Pac...he actually wrote lyrics which actually meant something...not simply about maked girls and getting drunk..

Sad how he died..he had so much potential! My bro still maintains that he faked his death and that he'll return heh

My fave songs are probably, Life Goes on, Hit 'Em Up, To Live and Die in LA and yeh quite a few others hehe

nelly,chingy and ja rule should be shot along lil romeo , bow wow etc.

Bizzy's tribute to Tupac is called Life Goes On
Bizzy Bone - Life Goes On
Mr. Shakur, man, your essence remains pure......

Chorus:
And by the freedom of God, we got a sure shot, and Jesus-you've been good to me
when it all stops, my life goes on for sure, Mr. Shakur and blessed with your
presence, your essence remains pure......

Verse One:
I never made it in school in '92, lookin for a job as a part-time father, only
if you knew Pac, with the chronic thru your music was gettin me thru, it's 1999
now, what we gone do, huh, you gone and enemies snicker when I pour out a
little liquor, better not pass me your name and make you out to be the sinner
who spent the holiday with that ghetto, cookin a hood dinner, writin my memoirs
right next to your picture, remember: Life Goes On, that's what you told me
homie, and Sylk~E~Fine hooked it up in the nick of time my homie-shit, I may be
lonely and I talk to you, I hope you listening and we mob thru you, we all miss
him, and mommy say hey, she feed the babies, Johnny J still crazy as hell,
takin your class in college, hope I don't fail, I wish I had the mail for the
million dollar bill, but that'd be too much like writin the whole situation,
and it smells kind of fishy to me, bring the demons to the light, the truth-it
might set me free, but they can't kill you twice, by the freedom of God we have
a sure s
hot, and Jesus you have been so good to me.............

Chorus

Verse Two:
Yo, my friends ain't feelin me, tobacco companies make money off of killin me,
we been waitin for forty acres like we said it, damn, and the earthquakes with
the world's retaliation, all the abomination, call it El Nino, but it feels
like revelation, huh, in fact they got to you, you know, I think a fan shot
you, they was jealous of your jewelry, and the jury thought they got you, I
fast, prepare for the rapture with a ? for the ghetto bastards, walk in the
wilderness with God given talent for ashes, pass the pastor, he ain't helpin
the hood like judges should, but life goes on, it's all good, and homie we
fight for wood, to keep us stupid huh, and after Eazy, it ain't no more
Ruthless acoustics, same producers seduce us, with jewels to boost us, before
we prove em wrong, count on a revolutionary to move us, but life goes on,
within the music and the song, it's abuse if you use it to fuel your fire,
huh......

Chorus

Verse Three:
Supportin my people, distortin my people, they callin my people, losers weep
the reaper, all you G's now, proposition 187, and you think we sleep now, how
in the new millenium could we smile, God loves the underdog, and of course the
ghettos are close, just when the rain falls, reminisce on tattoos, the oceans,
pain y'all, note here for the dosage of prozac he prescribed, ther's too much
melanin in my system, musical group, we won't die, and what's the meaning of
survival, knowledge of wealth is right there in your biblem look at the literal
and learn yourself, pass me the lighter when I'm stressin on these issues, did
I mention my momma gonna need some tissue when they get you, I continue to flow
eternal, remember Mo Murda way back in the day, smokin burners with lil Layzie,
man we shootin at the turtle, him and his big boyz doggin me out, I'm all alone
with my Thuggish Ruggish shirt on, but still baby, I don't hate you, we black
and strong, even though I know right wherem you live, I forgive you and life go
es on...........

Chorus

ow... i didnt know.. i got it but i thought it was just called sumfing like tribute to mr.shakur

but yeh thats the one
