:yeshrug: probably so, but he was an artistic twinkle toes before he got into rap

:manny: Never got it, never will get it.


Any man who will change who is for the sake of other people :hubie: Cant fukk with it.

Lost a lot of respect for Pac when I learned more about his back story when I was a yougin

Mobb Deep was in Ballet when they was young
Jay Z was in Hawaiian shirts as a backup crew for Daddy Kane and Jaz O
Biggie was a nerd when he was in school
Method Man played Lacrosse before the rap game and a fortune teller
Eminem was washing dishes at a diner while his baby momma was fukking other dudes
Rick Ross was a security guard

What's the big deal that dude was a dancer back in the 80's? This was around the time New Jack Swing was popular.

None of these cats are street dudes but rap and attempt to project a lifestyle as such

He wasn't an a street nikka, all that shooting shyt was for his image to make him appear hard

So what he wrote deep songs? That literally means nothing, he grew up in the hood like me and everyone else but he was not a gangbanger or drug dealer


Imagine coming from a black panther background but doing stupid shyt making songs about riding on other nikkas lol


once again, blinded by celebrities and romanticizing a fake image.

Contradiction. His inspiration to do that was because he was a son of Black Panthers. He was a still an activist at heart. Nobody else would stand up for another black man being harassed by cops like Pac did.

He’s not wrong. Men love that image he portrayed more than women. “He’s a real man :noah: ,not like this soft fakkit generation of men:noah:” - a grown ass man who claims he’s straight

Obviously your research wasn't all that extensive.Pac was from a family of radical black militants who lived in poverty all his life

with a mother addicted to crack.That twinkle toes shyt was from a small moment in his life where he attended the Baltimore School

For The Arts for 11 months.Ballet was part of the curriculum.It was a core class you had to take.When you're going to school for acting,

you have to learn body expression.They believe ballet's good for that.It's a legit technique.Even athletes dip in that to work on their balance.

During his time at that school, Pac was acharity case.His fellow students used to donate him clothes because he only owned two pair of

pants, and a beat up muscle shirt.Jada Pinkett said Afeni was so gone on crack at that time, there was never any lights or food in the house.

Pac was surviving off sunflower seeds.The rare times they had electricity, it was boiled eggs.After that, it was off to Marin City.A place known as

"Black Bottom".I don't understand this narrative of Pac going from Carlton Banks to thug.he actually lived a harder life than most rappers.Probably

the worse thanks to his family connections & the COINTEL PRO.The alphabet gangs made sure Afeni was never able to get a job.Some even believe

that "Legs"(Pac's step day while in Baltimore) was a government asset sent to get her strung out on drugs.He was the dude who introduced Afeni to

crack.If you wanna know the real about his time in Baltimore, check out this book by Darrin Keith Bastfield.

Sucking someone off is way more feminine literally and figuratively speaking :scust:
Only one sucking anybody off is you. You sound like bytch that'll clown a nikka in front of her homegirls so they won't know she really likes him on the low.:mjlol:

IDK too many folks from/in the hood that use the terms "gangbanger" or "drug dealer"...:mjlol:

So your opinion is invalid IMO...:mjpls:
