Bro stop arguing with these folks. They are surface level listeners. 2Pac rap is so surface level that a layman in the street can understand it. Not much of a punchline or bars, hardly ever any double entendre, wordplays are not much either. Like you said, the passion and emotion in his voice and relatable lyrics is why many people love him. I love him too. Him and Eminem are my GOATs.

That's exactly what I was trying to let them know. They're deceived by the passion in his voice. Technically as far as rap is concerned..him no reach em

Love800:
You dey whine!
Like are you for real!

Almost all tupac songs are storytelling. It doesn't have to be quoted like a novel, but listen carefully to what he is saying, he is just trying to send a message. That is the story.

Lord knows.
Do for love
Keep ur head up
Its all about you
Dear mama
Staring at the world through my rear view
Still i rise
Last mutherfucker breathing
Life goes on
Ghetto gospel(Eminem later released this one as the producer. One of Pac's member of the outlaws sang it because pac was already murdered then).
Letter to my unborn child
Unconditional love

Guy dem many abeg. This is tupac's department. Storytelling. Ask any tupac true fan. That is why he was loved. He sang about society violence, police brutality, less privileged who are suffering, single mothers who gave birth out of wedlock, government oppression on blacks, evil friends, life and death, etc...

Omo!

You probably dunno the meaning of storytelling

femi4:
You cant compare both.

Eminem forte is storytelling, he cant go hard like 2pac, Snoop, Dre etc

Rap in its purest form is 2pac

U probably forgot that he can't use the n word in his songs coz he's white... These guys u classify as hardcore rappers seem to go hard cos they are can use the N word anytime to make bridges while rapping.

plessis:
Mf doom, canibus, chino xl, Jay electronica, nas, az, kool g rap, tech n9ne, lupe fiasco, loaded lux, daylyt, Royce da 5 9, the entire wu tang clan etc are all lyrically better than em

Lol..I laugh at the names in that list bro..abeg stop

I guess you dunno the meaning of storytelling song then

Why do I feel uncomfortable with the part that said they the military for information for within their ranks.. isn't that too much information to let out?

femi4:
They have different style

2pac is a hardcore rapper while Eminem is a storyteller

Lol.. u finally accept that Eminem beat him in all ramifications of rap right? Bro pac is highly rated based on the projection that he would have been the greatest if he hadn't died at his prime .that could or couldn't have been true..but when u rate rap by every standard of it and yardstick.. Eminem is undisputed

Love800:
You said story telling!

Pac is the king of story telling na. That is what he is known for.
While rhymes and punchlines are for Biggie(notorious B.I.G). Eminem nor even near these two people sef.

Eminem is just attracted to fans because of his fast-paced rapping. Nothing again.

Pac is the father of rap and hip-hop.

Name three story telling songs by pac... Infact name one that can be compared to stan. Ill be waiting

Love800:
Bros wetin you yarn just now!
You say Eminem better pass tupac!

Lyrically what!
Lol.

Even if you called Eminem and ask him about this, he will tell you that Tupac is greater.

The key aspects of rap is rhymes, poetry and wordplay. Em us better than anyone in these. His skill set is unmatched and his story telling ability is second to none.
You can hardly say one punchline from park. What he has is his passion which you can feel from his voice. If you doubt me. Tell me what aspect pac is better than him..I'll wait

Kingrshd3:
Them dey before na and they are d once that criticize this APC government alot..

I mean pit obi is part of them

Never skip your pills again please. For the safe of everyone

To me, the greatest rapper ever.

Was Tupac batter than him in anyway? I doubt. Pac had passion and you could tell from his voice. But punchline, lyrically and artistically. Em is way better

BTCproMax:
Headlights hit different once you actually process what he was apologizing for.

Wild that a man who built his whole career on brutal honesty needed a whole album to say sorry to his mum.

You think Hailie ever gets a song like that, or is she too private for that kind of exposure?

He made that song when he was emotionally matured. Guess he understood better and saw things differently at that point

They practically ate their fruit of their labor

Seems he already knew the outcome though

ppogba:
If they paid, no one should have sympathy for them. At least, they had money to make provision for their children to go and write the exam in a miracle center inside the forest. They should have set the money aside for kidnappers. Maybe they actually did.

In other words "let's normalize ransom payment" right?

kentokay71:
Am sure you help carry the ransome to your fellow kidnappers

The families said they paid

Family said they paid ransom lol

With the drama and criticism involved in this particular incident, if the government actually arrested or killed any of the terrorists, I'm sure they would have paraded them for us to see

Kemical23:
So what about the lieutenant they said died in process?...
What is going in this country...

English Alhaji said that incident had nothing to do with this particular operation, he said it was an ambush in a different operation.

jogojogo:
Oya tell us what should be done
Why didn't the US do that when they came?
Lets keep shouting Christian genocide thinking we are fighting Tinubu.
Tinubu has nothing to lose. Its rather the poor masses that has a lot to lose

This thing you wrote here has nothing to do with my response. You are confused

oneMalik:
go sitdun !

na people like you sold dem brothers as slave that year .

if their aid help you no wahala and that one concern you .

No be by chest beating, this is the reality on ground. Hate it or love it

oneMalik:
keep you aids to yourself we no need am /

mention one nation in the whole world where your aid has made the move forward .

to hell with una " TAKE CAP BRING HEAD " kind of useless aid or HIV .

Lol.. only if you know that u are practically living off those aids. Prices of drugs would skyrocket. No go there o

jogojogo:
What should Tinubu do that's yet to ve done?
Why didn't US Army stop the Christian genocide when they came?
To whose disadvantage if US stops aids to Nigeria
Aids or no aids, Tinubu has nothing to lose

Such a shameful first statement from you. So you mean nothing can be done? We all should wait for our own day when they'll butcher us? C'mon mehn! Na wa o

Stupid kogi state government said they were writing in a miracle centre, forgetting that people resit for exams

spencekat:
Chai!Money and power.

Exactly

Just applied.. let's see how it goes

If she had died in the house of a poor guy now the story would have been different. Police would be giving updates everyday, her family and friends would be crying for justice with hashtags trending on social media. The poor guy would have been in detention along with his friends and everybody in that house that day including neighbors. But look at this case. Nobody is even asking for justice

Poske95:
There's a first for everything

You don't get it. The poster said okoye have failed to perform in tournaments with the SE and I'm pointing it out to him that he hasn't been to any tournament with Nigeria yet

Poske95:
They are both rated close though

Yeah but okoye haven't been to any tournament with Nigeria
