How many of you know the rose that grew from concrete? How many of you kow that famous poet? How many of you know that famous rapper? How many of you know that Famous activitist?

Do you know how I am talking about?
I'm talking about Tupac Amaru Shakur. He was one of the greatest men alive. He got his message out through his songs and poems. I would like to know what you think of him. What youthink of his music, his poems, and what you think about what he did in this world of ours.

*facepalms*

tupac was a great writer of poetry!!!! i love his poems and his music... the gang life is tough

Tupac and Bob marley were great because they had talent and stood for something. Bob Marley screwed up and so did Tupac but i admire them both for they achieved something i aspire to leave: a legacy. and just putting it out there bob marley was from jamacia not africa.

yeah. tpac is to rap as bob marley is to reggae. u cant compare they two. bob marley a "top man" all over the world. so is tupac, both because of music, but because of different types of music..

I would definetly recomend buying mabye a best of bob marley album if you;ve never heard his music because you get the most variety that way. I have most of his cds and talkin' blues on vinyl.

The first time I heard about Bob Marley was from the pot-head in my math class. I've never heard any of his music.

80% of people who consider themselves fans of Bob Marley can't name even one of his songs. Those people are stupid.

Also, Tupac was just a pre-DMX (eh, too harsh, DMX is still way suckier) with sexist lyrics overall. Plus to me, though I admit I didn't know much about him, he seemed to way overplay the "I pray to God everyday for giving me life and Jesus and my babymama and I like God" thing.


On the other hand, the image of a rose growing out of concrete is cool.

I applaud you.

"""Tupac was very respectful of women. If you listen to most of his songs,he tells women to keep their heads up when other men are putting them down."""

___Marketing genius! If I thought it would make more women buy my cds, I'd rap about that sort of crap too.

Like 50 (50 cent) said,there will never be another Tupac.

Great. Now quote someone who actually matters.
