Entry #2. 2 PAC.

The greatest rapper of all time is 2 pac. no doubt, no discussion about it, he is! 2Pac died in 1996 and was primarily an American rapper with exceptional music skills. His songs are still being played on the radio. His music is not only rapping about thugs or money or cars. His songs tell a story, they have poetry and rhythm like the world has never heard before. Not only was he a rapper he was an actor as well and with such talent it had to end at the age of 25. He is an inspiration gone too soon and well missed.

Tupac Amaru Shakur (June 16, 1971 – September 13, 1996). Also known by his stage names 2Pac, Pac and Makaveli.

He left a strong mark in this world and you can tell because his lyrics are still relevant in issues still going on today.

Tupac grew up with his mother (Afeni Shakur) who was in one of the biggest protesting group of her time. they were called the Black Panthers. they fought for their rights especially because it was hard being a woman and African American. I've seen that in one of Afeni's interview about her son where she said Tupac saved her from drugs and that he can become a great rapper. He did just that.

Many of his songs talk about how hard it is being African American and they address the complexities of black America, proof of his power to resonate with listeners who still see his truthful take reflected in black culture today.

Here are a few song lyrics and personally my favorite that leave a strong message in this world today, "If you can make it through the night there's a brighter day, everything will be all right if you hold on, it's a struggle every day but we roll on." he had so much insight on a lot of the world's struggles so his lyrics are relatable. Another one would be "I see no changes, all I see is races faces, misplaced hate makes disgrace for races" even now in 2017 we're still dealing with racism, something he thought that maybe one day we would get over but we still haven't.
