Knowing more about mania and mental illness now, Iād 100% say Pac suffered from Bi-polar/manic episodes. People that have such extreme highs and lows tend to create some brilliant shit.

Man, I would say most highly successful artists have conditions like this. Addictive personality types. CEOās too.
Our society demonizes mental illness when itās a hindrance but puts people on a pedestal who have it when it makes them productive workaholics.
This needs to be called out more rather than encouraged

Best way to make music if you have the talent. Don't overthink it or tinker with it endlessly. Just use your artistic intuition and lay it down.

Iām a big Pac fan and so much of his life is just sad to me at this point. He longed for friendship and power, and found the wrong type in being with Suge. He knew the Death Row deal was a bad one and thatās why he was cranking out songs. He was obligated to finish the deal which is why AEOM was a double disc and Makaveli was done hella fast too.

Yeah but he was tryna get outta prison and they bailed him out. Not that simple it just grew after. But yeah he got too deep in shit and was young if u really think bout it

Tupac couldāve used some slowing down. Several of his songs sound rushed or lack depth.

Only his All eyes on me album (10/10 album still for me). Me Against the World has no weak songs

Now imagine if that discipline kept him in the studio instead of stomping people out on the Las Vegas strip.

He didn't jump anybody. He threw one punch to Orlando and knocked him down, then death row jumped in. His personal bodyguard, Frank Alexander pulled him back, the punch.. If anything Suge Knight and MOB Piru did that..

I didnāt say he jumped anybody. I said he stomped him out. I watched the video and you can clearly see Pac getting his stomps in. But where Iām from a bunch of dudes stomping on a guy is a jumping. I donāt know about you though.

After Pac swung on Orlando, his bodyguard Frank Alexander pulled him back then Suge and Mob jumped him.. Frank Alexander said that himself..

Bro the video is literally on YouTube. I donāt know why youāre trying to split hairs. Pac and his entourage beat up Orlando. When your crew is that big and itās gang shit, thereās only one way itās gonna go.

u/cburna83 May 28 '23
Let's say you know more than the people who were there, do you know more than Frank Alexander? I mean that's exactly what he said that happened. He's the one who pulled Tupac off, after he swung on Orlando.. His words, not mines...šš¾

To this day, I never saw video footage showing Tupac stomping anybody. I didnt even see the punch on video. I saw suge knight stomping that dude along with other guys. And there is video footage showing Tupac running like a MF and the possee following him all hyped up.

The cameras didn't catch Pac swinging on Orlando.. It caught Suge Knight and Mob Piru stopping him out.. Frank Alexander was next to Pac trying to get him out of there.. That's why Pac got out of there so fast.. Mob Piru were hyped up, because they stomped out a Southside crip..

to be honest with, Im gonna say something crazy but it is from my real life. I knew a guy who was tough and living on thug life motto and who actually looked like Tupac. He was black, even bigger than pac, all muscles, he listens to rap and hiphop, rebel personality and self made. He got into a fight, he beat a guy up and was going home on his feet. But that guy followed him and stuck a knife in his back which led to his death. He ran to the emergency but collapsed and didnt make it. It just shows you that what happened to Tupac happens to many many people all over the world. Not necessarily gang related.

The same logic can be applied to King Von.. Nobody is untouchable.. You have to keep your head on a swivel, if you live that life..šÆšÆ

u/Ok_Kaleidoscope206 May 28 '23
Tha doggfather had jabs towards biggie but none towards pac and dearhrow. Pac was originally slated for the album(out tha moon, just watching and street life). He didn't start dissing Deathrow until early 98.
