You got everything wrong homie.Listen to 2pac music from 1991-1995 then you will know that pac did not ignited a foolish beef. At that time pac doesn't give a Bleep about any musician's,he was more concerned on the corruption and injustice going on in America and at the same time telling the whole world what ghetto life is all about in USA.

Pac was shot 4 time in New York in 1995 and after then he was taken to prison where he spent 8 months. Everything started when pac was in prison because a lots of musician's, celebrities, police, judges even Government officials blasted and mocked him.

The most notably among them was Biggie song "Who Shot Ya" in his album Ready to Die. Pac responded to them all in 1996 when he came out from prison. He was even harsh to the judges and police than Biggie.
Just figured out before 1996 and after 1995 music of pac then you will understand more about the beef and pac nature of music.

Both Biggie and Pac were been killed by FBI and CIA.
And finally, I held Biggie in high esteemed, I respected him, he is genuis. His eloquent and flow in rap has no part 2.His music "Juicy" and Missing You"remains my favorite.(i.e biggie songs)
Well said sir. You are a genius with your knowledge of Tupac. Guy singing against injustices and the lawlessness of the then US government really endeared me to him.

Yeah I learnt that Diddy had links with the South South Crips, that probably killed Pac after the altercation with Orlando,,,

But why would Diddy ever want to kill Big?


Diddy is a businessman. When Pac was killed. Biggy got to Die to too. Or the War will be endless........so Diddy strucked a deal with the Devil. Which it is the right thing to do.

2PAC's life was in the 90s and Ice Cube most successful decade in hip pop was in the 90s. Thats the era of relevance in this discourse.
Was Ice Cube also not singing the same violent thematic ideas as Tupac and the rest in the 90s? Thats the question. Mind you, PAC was dead due to political reasons, not that gangster shit they made you to believe.

Oh, they were all singing those lyrics back then but my question again is why did this supposed relevance suddenly change the moment the boys all started dropping dead like flies, at the hands of their own pals, mind you? undecided

Do you have to insult to put your point across? I still repeat that Tupac was an irresponsible human being who promoted thuggery and had a bad influence on the black community and this is the plain truth. The African American crime rate is the highest in the US and it's rap music coming from the likes of Tupac that contributed to it.

How many rappers have been killed from 2010 to 2023 in US again?

In the 1980s, 2 rappers were killed; in the 90s 11 rappers were killed, 2PAC was no5 in the 90s's list; in 2000s, 12 rappers were killed; in 2010s, 22 rappers were killed and finally, 2020s currently has 18 murdered rappers.


From the above statistics, this is there listing numbers:

1980s---- 2
1990s ----11
2000s-----12
2010s-----22
2020s------18 (which means before 2029, we should be looking at 40 rappers dead)


Tell me, was 1990s the worst era, so how did your point advantageously put Ice Cube now as non actor as he was in aggressive rap in 90s. 90s was his era same as Tupac and Biggie, and that era wasn't the worst when it comes to the murders of rappers.

Another point on the "political death": why was FBI stalking 2PAC days before his death?

Goalpost? You said after they were dropping dead in the 90s and I gave you stats over 4decades and how they fare in relating to murder. There's no goalpost shifted. You just lost.
You've refused to answer my other question below:
*WHY WAS FBI STALKING TUPAC BEFORE HE DIED?*

Yes political bro. Go read deep about the stories. 2pac was more than just a rapper, he's a revolutionarist, and an activist who fought and spoke about the injustice and inequality perpetrated by the ruling class in the American society back then.

It was never gangster shit that killed him, and biggy had nothing to do with his death but it was government agency like the CIA that killed him. 2pac stepped on toes to be honest, and his radical preaching through his music was gathering momentum so they had to stop him. He was shot several times in the traffic by some hired assassins in a black and tinted highlander, watch the video you'll see how they followed him from the event he went to and he even fought there, so as he was living that's when they followed him and shot him.

I've watched his documentary several times, I know what am telling you.

Notorious B.I.G. was my guy. cool

1. Somebody's gotta to die 2. Niggaz Bleed ...in fact the entire "Life After Death" album were stories that inspired my writing. Check those 2.

For 2pac

1. Ain't hard to find 2. Only God can judge 3. Picture me rolling.... the entire "All Eyez on Me" album.

Tupac ignited a foolish beef that got 2 lyrical geniuses killed.

Modified - 2pac got killed because he messed with a Crip. Biggie died because of the East-West Coast beef.

I still have Only God can judge me and Picture me rolling on my playlist.

Tupac single handedly shaped the face and sound of hip hop in the 90s.

He was a one man riot squad, unparalleled.

His shortcomings were- He didn't know when to pick a fight and when to squash a fight.

He made enemies almost anywhere he went, through his actions or things said.
Dude overtalked and over bragged. That was hip hop fashion though but, a smart dude would've picked his words.
Lastly, he was dangerously overconfident.

Imagine going out and driving around with no bullet vests after beating up a thug?

C'mon.

Exactly!
