overrated! none of his songs has stick... [besides California Love] it was just a combination bad luck and fanaticism and ghetto culture that some are trying to impose on us...
With all due respect Marylin Monroe & Elvis are larger than that... [added] James Dean and even Selena [giving u EXAMPLES]
why bump up an oooold thread?
p.s. and to get out of the so called 'ghetto' the only thing you need is to wake up early at 6am, take a shower, and go to work as hard as u can, and save some time to pursue some personal goals... see? so easy
I don't think you have a good point at all.....Did you notice all those people that you named are white? Tupac's song did stick to name a few, america's most wanted, Dear mama,Changes, Hit em up. You probably just LIKED that one....and you even forgot to name Easy E in that list of people that stick. The FIRST black rap artist to walk in the white house with his Jerry Curls and his Sneakers....Maybe you just don't know the culture but don't talk what you either don't know or want people to believe that you don't know
and to get out of the ghetto you need a LOT more then just pursue your goals sometimes you just don't have THAT luck to REACH it...yes some people love the ghetto but some are stuck and have barely any way out...Tell that to those young kid who goes to school with no food in their belly their mom ran out of food stamp and can't keep a job cause each job keep closing down or laying off people for many different reason.
I don't want this thread to become a black and white situation. but anyways each is own. you believe Elvis was big to certain people well tupac is AS being for us as being a black man who reached as far as so many white people noticing him. That was already a big step.
