[Black Ball]

Probably my favorite Pac song ever.

 

[ManBearPig]

i guess.

i'm sure we all heard this song and know who 2pac is.

 

[Bernie Madoff]

I wonder now, how do we keep cash? Always outlast...

 

[Mac Casper]

imagine all the amazing talents that are locked up or never had the determination

The thing about this song also is that he doesnt even use profanity on it.

This one song gets ya boy emotional

 

[The_Third_Man]

good song but no

 

[Cladyclad]

I try not to say anything negative about Pac n Big.... I mean they dope as hell. and for us that were around to witness their reign on the top. They got a spot in most of our hearts Jay & Nas could never have. But when they were alive Cube, LL, Rakim & Krs were ranked ahead of both of them by a longshot. They were considered just the hot rappers at the moment by most.Hell Snoop at the time was right there with them, but with a better overall album than both of those guys. And we saw what happened to Snoop career after Doggystyle. To me Big & Pac should be removed from all top 5 lists. At this point its just too Generic to have them listed.

Song is underrated. He was painting pictures in that bytch.

I noticed that on "Until the End of Time", "Unconditional Love", and "Shed So Many Tears".

All the real deep songs is raw emotion no curses.

:thinking:

 

[Ohene]

in my top 5 pac songs no doubt

 

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

Hold Ya Head and Shed So Many Tears.


Those songs should have their own genre.


They're just "different"....No other rap artist has ever reached that level IMO



I'm tempted to throw Blasphemy in that category.He blacked out on some shamanic shyt.

Ive seen someone else post something like this...
...but its just not true.

I remember cats stanning Pac when All Eyez on Me dropped...EVERYBODY wanted to hear Hit em Up. Death Row Pac had the game on lock.

Back in those days I hung out w/ a lot of hood boogers (I wont set foot in the hood anymore ) and everybody had love for Pac since Brendas Got a Baby dropped.
That was my experience at least.
