Poet and musician? He talked over computer-generated music.

**vivalaspam** · 09-14-2004, 06:38 AM

This guy was a thug and can you really call what he did poetic?

He did so much for the youth of his generation. ((rolling eyes))

Rap written down on paper could be called poetry. One of the reasons I do not listen to his music mutch is because it is to much like poetry to me and I do not really like poetry to much. Do not answer this, just think about it...... Have you ever really listened to more than what he had on the radio, hell did you ever really listen to that or go to a lyrics site and read it?

A singer can arguably be called a musician, a rapper while certainly more monitone than a singer with vocal range still uses his/her voice as their musical instrument. You would also be suprised how many rappers know about music and musicality, the fact is the way rap is produced sells, bands do not sell as much.

Here is a challange though. Since people who listen to "real" music tend to bag on rap so much I am going to start a thread and challange you so I am not killing the flow of this post here out of respect to its originator.

In '96 we was on top of the world
Videos, movies, money, jewels and girls
Rolls Royces, Hummers, Jagz and all that
Hard to believe one night in Vegas changed all that
Fast forward... 6 years
Man, we still here
Despite be hated on (huh)
We still clear
Until the end of time you cant stop destiny
Back for everything they owe
Now let's go

you guys need to seriously stop hating on a dead guys memorial thread. Not everybody liked him, he was controversial, but regardless, let him rest in peace and let those who were touched by his music respect this day for him.

**Nima** · 09-17-2004, 12:31 PM

listening to his music as I read this thread
best there ever was and the best there ever will be

haha. exactly.

if anyone watched Ressurection where they showed the interviews with him at drama school... you would see that he was a flaming homosexual and he was very proud of it.

there is no way a person could look at that guy with that hair, those fucked up black tights and skin tight turtle neck sweater with him smiling and giggling like a little girl and not think that he is not a turd burgler.

RIP Tupac Amaru Shakur (1971-1996).
