hnmmm. Pac was no damn thug or anything. Shit, pac used to carry digital underground's shit to shows... Yeah, he was extremely poor and lived in ghetto ass places.. But he was a good kid, he even went to art schools and shit.
He was an act.. some of his songs were really some of his struggles etc.. but all that thug shit he made famous, was all an act. He did have some crazy ass stans around him all the time.. But I think, you have to when you in that lifestyle.
He became crazy after he had money. I've been listening to pac since day one. 15 or 16 years ago. I had some old school mix tapes when He was trying to start up w/ digital underground. I bet some of you dont know that he tried the fancy shit back in 89 sorda, like the fresh will smith was doing.. shit didnt work and had to change his style.
Bam, 1991 came around and he dropped 2Pacalypse Now .. shit was diffrent for it times.. talking about shit going on in the ghetto streets. I was 11 years old when I got a hold of the 2Pacalypse now tape.. I really didnt understood much, since I really had no clue about politics/sex and other social problems... But some I did understand.
2pac was one of the smartest rappers ever.... Was really well educated , something some will never believe.

Anyways, Big pac fan here, I read alot on him =]
