He was pronounced dead on Friday September 13, 1996.

Isn't he working in a Burger King store with Elvis ?

Yeah, he's dead, just like trillions of other people who have lived on Earth.

Famous in death? You bet.

Tupac's alias is Makaveli. Though the spelling is different, Machiavelli was a 16th century italian philosopher who advocated the staging of one's death in order to evade one's enemies and gain power.

Did Machiavelli really advocate this? It seems curious that of all of the sites devoted to this little theory thrown up by Google, none of them appear to produce a primary reference.

Personally, I think Paul McCartney is Tupac.

Can't remember Paul loosing that much talent.

You wouldn't think so, considering he's released a few albums since then.

Unfortunately, his music didn't die with him.

Yep. It's the one right across the road from where I saw Osama bin Laden.

Or his numerous 'homies'.

Does anyone on this site actually like hip hop music?

Whenever it gets mentioned people start slating it, and I've yet to come across someone who likes it

Can't stand the ****.

Seems to me like every Black man on the planet can do it, why bother listening to it. They all say the same thing as well.

Just like you can stick a few white guys together with huge spikey hair with the same instruments, make them sing about how they got screwed over and they can be an instant hit.

It works both ways.

Have you listened to any of his solo stuff lately?

He can still play an instrument and actually sing right?

Still more than this tupac git.

Yes, yes it does. But still, most modern rock songs aren't about slappin' hoes and bicthes around either.

True. I was basically just being a bit of a devils advocate. I do like a lot of rock music (not all), but I don't have any problems with some rap stuff that doesn't talk about a load of crap, which can occur with any form of music.

I'm with ya. A lot of Tupac's stuff is good. Conversely, a lot of it isn't. But most people never listen to it; or even worse, they'll listen FOR the swear words. Good hip hop these days is hard to find, but I'm still a generic fan of the stuff; more RnB though.

So, tell us what you're into then?
(be careful... because you knock my stuff, I put you down soooo fast, you won't have time to blink!)

I'm not exactly a big fan of that music either...
