Tupac was a great man. His songs had the greatest meanings to them and he was never negative. Also, i think its incredible how he can be dead (r.i.p) and still make good music. If he was still alive, he would be gettin so much respect!

Bob marley was a far greater man than tupac. He united africa through his words and opened peoples eyes to the fact that rastas were not dirty and lazy. He left his door open to anyone who needed food or money for their familys. When Bob went on tour he would stop at stores and buy hundreds of the same soccer uniforms and bring them back for the children of kingston(a ghetto in jamaica.) I encourage anyone to read the book Catch a Fire its a biography of Bob Marley.

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.I believe he was one of the greatest men ever alive. Like 50 (50 cent) said,there will never be another Tupac.

YOu know I'm quick to support my fellow BLACK MAN, but i question tupac as being one of the greatest. I don't consider a man that refers to women as "biches" as great. Maybe greately sexist. thats it. Some of his songs did highlight the issues that black girls and women dealt with, and showed compassion for it, but his degredation of the female sex bothered me greatly.

I do recall him saying "a lot," thus implying some, not all.

A lot of the best artists, writers, and musicians were alcoholics or drug addicts.

Poe was found slumped in a gutter on the street, and he was transported to a hospital where he supposedly died.

He was a drunk, so eh.

I love tupac . His lyrics we're inspiring and his poems made me see things in a diffrent light. It was a little weird though how he predicted his own death.

I almost did my research project on him. He was a very mysterious person. Found dead on the steet. That's all I know. I don't remember if it was alcohol or drugs that he was in to. Maybe both.
