Never heard of the guy until he was already dead.
I had brief foray into gangsta rap in my teenage years which coincided with Tupac’s career. I had the tape that contained the song “Holla if ya hear me” that song is totally satanically inspired. The lyrics and the music work together brilliantly to conjure violence. It’s only by the grace of God we got through the 90’s without things being much worse.
You have to hear it to understand.
