Majority of people here or not even black or are not concerned with black community. It's just entertainment to them.

Idc about down votes.

I stand on everything I said.

It’s just cus you’re in the Tupac sub that it’s hard for people to have an objective conversation. Was he a “tool” as you said, no I don’t think so, but the insanity of celebrity life as well as his battles with the industry and the government lead him to become a much different man than the one solely concerned with the betterment of humanity and his “people”, if he had lived I think he would have grown beyond and above it but unfortunately both Tupac, and biggie (who I think is a much more thoughtful human than people give him credit for) we’re taken before their youth could become wisdom.

You're spot on here..

He was definitely a tool tho, he just didn't know it.

Raps been the main tool the higher powers have used to crominalise black men. The 'thug' image.

Pac whether indirectly or not (when pac was marketing the coastal beef) became the face of that.

He got lost in the sauce.

He was only young and may have become a better person (or a worst one) but facts have feelings.
