That was sarcasm right

Seriously. He was one of the few rap stars who didn't just rap about the usual rap stuff. He's made songs that praised black women, songs about the community, and the violence he saw. His songs contained messages in them. He's written poetry even.

Not everyone here watches NASCAR and listens to Trace Adkins, OK?

“2Pacalypse Now,” but this album was also the beginning of his notoriety as a leading figure of the gangsta permutation of hip-hop, with references to cop killing and sexual violence.<<

He glorified gang violence, and became the victim of the east coast/ west coast rap rivalry that killed Biggie Smalls too.

Keel mah landload, KEEEL mah landload?

Perhaps this is why he has been reduced to a statue.

His songs contained messages in them.

That's deep in itself...
