“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.
Unfortunately he did, but he had a different side. He was to rap what Kurt Cobain was to rock. I'd expand on the subject more but I won't waste the thread's time.
