I enjoyed both rappers clean versions . Tupac was my favorite . Many of his songs where talking about things going on today . Really awful both died so young full of life and talent .

Loud mouth, says one thing and do another, tries to justify by being a thug and a nicca, says he is pro black and jumps other black men, his songs are outdated and not timeless. He was bigger than what he actually was. He was smarter than how he acted and didn't show it. He talked but didn't walk and claiming to be a thug but was a ballerina. I'm surprised the fake thug didn't get exposed. Pac openly admitted that he didn't have any criminal record until after he became a rapper that talked about the thug life. Openly said he tried selling drugs but only lasted like a week because he wasn't about that life. Pac actually did become a thug. He literally shot police officers. Literally ran with thugs left and right, fighting, and causing a scene. Thug Life was supposed to be the new black power, but Pac was way too young and immature to properly articulate it to his people. Songs like "Violence" could have and should have been the type of songs he was pushing with his Thug Life concept, but he let his anger and immaturity override his intelligence as he got more and more involved in the cut throat industry. Pacs first two albums aren't timeless (although his first is still one of my favorites) but there is no way you can claim some of his later music ain't timeless. His beats for those records still are getting thrown on mixtapes today, and people still spin those songs on regular radio. and fwiw, Rakim and Kool G Rap's music did not age well. Ether....

New York music is always fresh because they have the ability to make eternal music. Not just crap that comes out from garbage. Rakim is still being copied and sample and anyone who uses technical lyrical rap is biting off him. Kool G Rap multis are used all the time and misused mostly by southern fools who know not the difference between a chair and a spoon. Don't tell me about music I'm a Gawd at this, not a peon like most are. Californian music is not sampler or used except when Hennessey and enemies are used in context.
