as u see, i love listenin to 2Pac's music. some say the songs are just talkin about gang-related stuff. but if u listen to the songs carefully, he was talkin about how he felt. music is a way to express yourself. that's why i write today. anyway, back to the subject. he expressed himself but some may have said that he's just singin because he's part of a gang. the only reason why the songs are gang-related is because he grew up in an area where there were gangs. and there was racism too. he feared for own life as he was growing up. in one of his songs, he seemed to predict his own death. before his death, he said this, "i believe that everything u do bad comes back to u. so everything that i do that's bad, i'm going to suffer for it. but in my heart, i believe what i'm doing is right. so i feel like i'm going to heaven."

I don't really know anything about 2Pac, but you make me wish I did.
I think the reason I like Tupac's music so much is because he was a really smart person with a lot of sides to his personality, and you could really see that in his songs. Some of the time he'd be in a beef and write battle raps like "Hit em up", but then if you listen to "Changes" or "Life Goes On", you see that other side of him where he was trying to educate and reach people with his music, or just talk about his own life.
You should check out the group Atmosphere, their MC is the same way.
