Maya Angelou talks about Tupac ( very rare )

[koolio11]

..so pac felt he had to prove he was a loyal nigga sadly that was his biggest mistake n the reason he isnt around today....had suge ran deathrow like a normal record company not been involoved in gangs,drugs other shit then deathrow wud possibly stil be on top and possibly wiped badboy off the map..."keepin it gangsta" was deathrows problem pac got killed ,suge prison 5 year n blkballed from industry=deathrow crumbled.....

[koolio11]

Am hearing all this shit Bout suge killing pac i almost laughed i have fam in l.a everyone in l.a who is a true pac fan knows who killed him...the southside compton crips because wat pac didnt relaise is that if u guna jump into the middle ov all that shit(gang war sscc vs mob piru) then u better expect retailaiton pac n suge were caught slippin.....suge n his pirus shudnt have even put pac in that situation he wasnt no gangmember they shud ov handled it not put it on pac ....

[killakadafi77]

2pac keepin it real, as usual

[bluesugar58]

I wish i could have gave him a hug....he should still be here

[xtrme99]

A great example of why people should be kind and loving towards other, regardless of their upbringing. :) You'll never know how you'll impact their life.

[TheRedirkulous]

aww another saddened moment for 2pac, love him rip

[MsTheexecutioner]

Pac I will always miss you brother but I will always be angry at you too. I do not think those that are now left empty without you could ever expect you to make peace with Big and Puff, but damn man if you would have made peace within yourself nothing would have mattered! Pac your responsibilities grown far bigger then yourself, your words and your teachings could have changed many lives as did this woman did for you! I miss you always my nigga

[killakadafi77]

@MsTheexecutioner Pac had no desire for peace with Badboy, he was doin shit with other East coast artists, fuck Badboy, he outsold that entire label, why would he need to make peace with fakers!

[markus2377]

So does anyone know what '237' in Makaveli237 at the end of the clip means?

R.I.P. 2pac

[nessy79gonzales]

Breaks my heart that he has been gone from this earth 15 years, yet at the same time my heart knows all too well that we didn't deserve him. RIP Tupac, we still love you.

[ThePaul1E]

I bet they were absoulte soul mates. she seems exactly like the type of strong women tupac would absolutely adore as friend and role model

[lynch3]

@SonGokuLegendaryHero amen!

[MvG040]

2pac rip,

[bwh1889]

real nigga right there

[shadowmyfeet]

Why are all my heroes dead?

[DonnWalkerTV]

mann as hardcore as he was he still knew when it was time for being hard and when it was time for humble smh RIP Tupac

[sur13venice13]

damn ms angelo describing that story and then the imagine of pac at the end really made me sad for a cool minute...imagine how big he would be had he not got caught up in that bullshit gang war...thug in peace pac

[dalishisnsassy]

@sur13venice13 It's a little deeper than that sweetie. It has nothing to do with a gang war.

[sur13venice13]

@dalishisnsassy lol sweetie dont tell me your another lost illuminati theorist

[KenyanBoyBiggz]

@sur13venice13 His life was deeper than some fake gang war started by the media. Imagine if tupac was still alive right now talking about how many members of his family were spied on by the CIA, how many have ran away to exile from america, how many are still locked up, he was raised a black panther's kid and the shit came back to haunt him. the system killed tupac. not some bullshit gang war. tupac wasnt even a gangbanger or a gangsta. he was a rapper/actor with a black panther message. killed.

[sur13venice13]

@KenyanBoyBiggz all i know is im from south central la homie i got family from lynwood and e/s compton and EVERYONE AFFILIATED WITH THE STREETS OVER HERE KNOWS THE SSCRIP GANG MURKED PAC BECAUSE HE JUMPED ORLANDO AND WAS RIDIN WITH E/S MOB PIRU...I agree he was deeper than that but he also was naive and was obsessed with the gang/thug life

[KenyanBoyBiggz]

@sur13venice13 You might be right. But the fact that the case is still unsolved to this day makes me think the cops were in on it. Dude was under survaillance by the FBI and shit and then the one day he gets shot nobody is around to see anything? Thats kinda crazy. Yeah maybe he got killed for jumping Orlando but if he hadnt been killed that night then it woulda happened on another night. he had to die for capitalism to stay in place.

[sur13venice13]

@dalishisnsassy with all due respect sweetheart im from la...im in the streets thats what i do...i know for a fact that pac got killed for beating up orlando anderson that night...orlando and the crips came back and killed him...sad but true

[sweetpolania]

@sur13venice13 im from la blablabal fuck u ,and fuck the Illuminati:DONT TALKK 2 MUCH SHIT CONYO...

[sur13venice13]

@sweetpolania tell yaself that fagget u talkin masa behind your computer like a bitch...

[sweetpolania]

@sur13venice13 that is what u do,talking shit behind ur computer;)

[MikeCityTv]

@sur13venice13 Because for every maya angelo, there's a suge knight

[killakadafi77]

@MikeCityTv theres nothing wrong with suge, saying suge killed 2pac is disrespectful to 2pac

[MikeCityTv]

@killakadafi77 which shows that you kno absolutely nothing about pac. But I'm gonna quote Snoop for you. When Snoop was asked "Who is responsible for Tupac's death" He replied "The big guy sitting right next to him." Pac was thinking about leaving Death Row because Suge wasn't paying him his royalties, however, if pac is killed, then he will be worth more than if he leaves. Suge Knight is a heartless person, his actions endangered the lives of many people, look up the fricken history!

[killakadafi77]

@MikeCityTv Your quoting Snoop? that phoney piece of garbage went on the radio 3 days before Pac died,and claimed that Biggie was his "friend", so dont act like Snoop has any credability whatsoever. Also, before Pac died, he was trying to start Death Row East, how would killing 2pac benefit Death Row? It CLEARLY didn't since they went bankrupt. Any true 2pac fan knows who killed Pac, and it wasnt Suge, it was the same people that shothim the 1st ime "who shot me, but ya punks didnt finish"

[sur13venice13]

@MikeCityTv what he meant by that was suge should have protected 2pac more and not allowed him to get involved in that gang turf war ... he shouldnt have let 2pac fight orlando that night but it seems he was one of the ppl who influenced 2pac to feel had to prove something to suge and his goons that he was down for them...

[DaBoroSizzle09]

@hovo71321 its to live and die in L.A.

you qotta listin two it real close

[ShonWonPowerMix]

If more older people would approach the youth in that manner, caring and loving but firm and intentional, you never know what seeds will grow.

[hydeparkmac]

@ShonWonPowerMix I agree with you 100%. However, some of the younger kids are too scary to approach.

[Dalleman86]

Maya Angel WHO ??? seriously

[LuciFrederiksen]

@Dalleman86 i dont know your location , im from Europe , but if this name does not tell you something im sorry but im forcet to say it you are verry small minded ! Maya is an inspiration for the whole world , better not to lomment if you dont know the persons achievements

[daynthalife91]

[awarren92]

@dazamaru You'll grow out of it one day.

[pheonixphire]

he might be hard..but he respects his elders!

[bruv1ful]

R.I.P tupac we'll always miss u and ly... uk

[TheSupernova247]

@dazamaru Well, how would you handle things like that? I don't think he was hardly whining, but people were out to get him and he knew it. He just felt like he always had to put up a fight. He went through a lot. He was a soldier, and I don't think that too many people could have handled things the way he did without blowing their brains out.

[lloydbanks17ani]

@dazamaru even thugs cry

[lloydbanks17ani]

verry funny interview about pac :)))) just his style...;)

[Jonny13Blaze]

@dazamaru Hahahaha.... Damn man... What kind of grown ass man constantly posts about an artist he don' even like? Hahaha you just a lonely ass hater man. Lol Why is Tupac constantly on your mind? Why do you have urges to just randomly speak on a man you supposedly can't stand. Get some "real" life firends & try to stop being the bitch made hater you are. Hahahahahaha....

[Jonny13Blaze]

@dazamaru Hahahahahaha... Stop crying in front of yo son nigga! Damn you should gone head & drown tha ugly ass little bitch of a son you got. Hahahaha yo faggot ass needs to kill yourself... YOU "fake as hell" Hahahahahahaha

[Jonny13Blaze]

@dazamaru Hahahahahaha... Stop crying in front of yo son nigga! Damn you should gone head & drown tha ugly ass little bitch of a son you got. Hahahaha yo faggot ass needs to kill yourself... YOU "fake as hell" Hahahahahahaha

[BlackWomanDeen]

I dont care what the haters say, he was real. Real men cry!

[Jonny13Blaze]

@dazamaru Damn I hope your dirty ass son didn't see his bitch made old man cry like a little hoe. Oh well Guess he'll grow up & work on the corner like daddy... Hahahaha

[Jonny13Blaze]

@dazamaru Try not to cry like the little bitch that you are in fornt of your little dirty ass kid. Hahahahahahaha

[Jonny13Blaze]

@dazamaru And yeah. DEFEAT mutha fucker... When I prove somebody a little bitch like I did you Ima call it like I see it, In person or online.

[Jonny13Blaze]

@dazamaru Nah a Loser is a little hoe like you that goes on a website of somebody he don't even like & pays so much attention to an artist that they supposedly think is "fake as hell." You a lonely ass hater. & you change the subject every tiime you post.... Fuckin pathetic. & fuck yo 3yr old nigga. Hahahahahahaha...

[Jonny13Blaze]

@dazamaru Now walk your little hoe ass off in defeat.

[Jonny13Blaze]

@dazamaru Yeah Homie... you a pussy weak hearted hater. Hatin' on a man's art dead or alive is still fuckin hatin'.... Infact it's even more of a bitch made trait.

[Tarron3]

ya put them niggas in check man, say! you know where i can get tupac clothes at? am in dallas.

[Jonny13Blaze]

@dazamaru Hollywod Worship? You don't even make no fuckin' sense' Like I said, any tme somebody likes or defends an artist against someone tryin to assasinae thier charachter they automaticly a "groupie" to the haters like you...Hahahahaha stop tryin to be a fuckin' Rebel & just realize that you are a weak hearted hater. AIn't got nothing to do with "hollywood".... Your pathetic ass hater, nothing more.

[JamSlick]

@dazamaru

excuse me, but umm, before you type shit like that...please remove the donkey dick from your mouth...i think its interfering with your thinking process. Plus, you might choke on it and die...its serious you see. 8D

[Jonny13Blaze]

Guess Dazamuru's little hoe ass got nothing else to say

[RichieRichGoldBrickz]

@dazamaru real niggaz shed tears.. all niggaz shed tears.. pussy niggaz don'y admit it

[cllllllaaaaaat]

@dazamaru YOU doing that just to piss off pac fans? hahah your you dumb fuk PAC WAS ONE OF THE REALIST MOTHER FUKERS ALIVE!! ahhahha bet your punk bitch ass cry when your boyfriend broke up wit you!

[Jonny13Blaze]

@dazamaru If you wanna talk about dude's place in the top mc's that's whatever but when you call him "fake as hell" you come off like serious hater. Oh & one last thing, just cause a person respects & defends an artist or another person does not make them a "groupie". Seems like every time someone likes an artist & defends them against someone tryin to assasinate thier character they a "groupie". That's bullshit dawg. I guess I just don't see where your comin' from at all man but whatever.

[Jonny13Blaze]

@dazamaru I got no problem if you don't think dude was a good rapper, hell you could even say you think he's overrated or that it was all an image even though i'd disagree, your entitled to your own opinion, but call him "fake as hell"? Mutha fucker took five bullets walked out the hospital the next day, Dude shot 2 cops for fuckin with a brother for a bullshit reason, & was crucified by the media constantly until he died.

[Jonny13Blaze]

@dazamaru Lol... what homie, no underwear line this time? Dawg u are the truest form of a hater. First of all I don't pay for shit as far as music, you ever heard of soulseek? Secondly, what fuckin "Image" are you talkin about? Dawg Pac might not have been the nicest MC flow wise & if you just talkin syllables & rhyme schemes dude probly wasn't even in the top 15. But ask anyone, I mean anyone, ask yo favorite rapper who the "Realist' rapper was & they'd be lyin' if they didn't say Pac

[mrpapafunky7879]

@dazamaru yeah i must of been high...reading that..just doesn't sound like me.i know just like you pac preached brothahood then..we know

[Jordans529]

Man I love Pac.  It was such a role model even though he didn't want to be. My heart breaks every time I see his face on tributes because I would love to have seen what he could have been today. He was never afraid to say he cried or felt pain which absolutely adored. Now everyone just seems so unhuman like. RIP Pac, though I didn't know you personally, you connected to us through your music and became family. And thank you for posting this!

[Jonny13Blaze]

@dazamaru Damn Homie, Using that underwear line alot ain't you? Come up with some new shit. Lol man I see bitches like you just dying to assasinate Tupac Shakurs character cause it eats at your weak hearted ass how he affected so many people & knowing that your sorry ass will never be shit. Lmao keep up the hatin' Bruh, It ain't nothing but wasted energy on your part Lmao.

[Jonny13Blaze]

@dazamaru Wow...You sound like a little hoe ass mutha fuckin hater. Bitch you probably cry hystericlaly every time you get rejected... Lmao.... Just a weak pussy ass hater. You a music major? Shoulda gotta real degree that way you might actually be making some kinda money instead of looking for other Legends to hate on. Lmao, what little hoe

[Jonny13Blaze]

@dazamaru Wow.. Lmao.. you sound like a fuckin idiot

[makaveli237]

getting two bullets in the head , survive and next day going to court and being convicted for something he didnt do and still climb on top of the world thats Tupac that aint fake shit bitch

[bhchargers]

@dazamaru hows dat funny,ya clown???have u never cried?cos iv cried loads of times and so has everyone on this planet.explain 2 my how hes fake cos he cried??he also took 5 bullitts i think that quiet hard!!

[Sileni]

Damn. You know she's bad ass when even Maya Angelou can kick more ass Than Chuck Norris and Vin Diesel combine! -- She's soul. Strength. What a TRUE African American women were like back in the day....finding one now is nearly IMPOSSIBLE!

[101feven101]

@dieguetti Yeah If you watch Tupac's interviews when he was 17 years old he was very intelligent & had high respect for women. He said that girls said that he was "too nice" and they want more "masculine" guys, I think that's why he changed. He even talked of starting the panther movement again, but without violence & with knowledge instead. People have this perception that Tupac was a thug or a violent, angry, black man but he said himself in the Gridlocked interview it isn't who he really is

[BekaShakur]

@xwizdom I luv that speech 2, I got it on CD

[KurdPac93]

I love Pac! A true genius, I swear to God!

Btw, does anyone know where I can get the violin music at the start and at the end?

[BekaShakur]

that music is dear mama on string quartet, it's here on Youtube

[makaveli237]

@BekaShakur no its not , its to live and die in La

[BekaShakur]

good point, thanks

[paralachica]

@makaveli237 I think it's ''Pain''

[makaveli237]

The String Quartet Tribute to Tupac you can buy the album on amazon

[KurdPac93]

Thanks dawg

[BekaShakur]

@makaveli237 it's on ITunes 2, I bought the Thugz Mansion on String Quartet

[TheTherealnigga]

@makaveli237 wait that violen instramental(excuse my spelling) was a tribute to 2pac?

[damann]

Tupac cried because he was deep. People may think pussies cry, weaklings cry, girls cry bla blah blah.. but try and go through the hardships Pac went through and see how you handle it. No doubt Pac was a hard mofucker, but he cried too... and that set him apart from the other black men. He was hard, intelligent and emotional... a truly magnificant combination. Much love Pac, RIP.

[mrpapafunky7879]

pac was a panther at heart and seeing his people beefing over petty bs and him being pulled into it got to him.pac knew black on black crime was just sad

[mrjavon91]

@damann real shit!

[mrpapafunky7879]

@damann true but 2 impressionable.not a follower at all.but pac just got cauht up in whatever was around at the time.2 think suge's weak ass had any influence on a brotha like pac is very unerving

[rideonum]

@damann most men and women in this world have the characteristics of a man im my mind tupac was the ideal man strong intelligent truly in touch with all emotions that makes a human he was a mans man too!

[BekaShakur]

She's a member of the Order of the Eastern Star, a Freemason organization.

[LippieGloss]

What's your point?

[BekaShakur]

you would never understand my point, if you'd like 2 try, listen 2 The House Negro vs the Field Negro by Malcolm X, she's str8 Boule, goes and reports 2 the people who pay her, thats not freedom

[jignaeri]

thats my nigga

[kesiashani]

he looks so cute at the end.

[tommybrown187]

good morning ms.angelou

[frnnk]

greatest human being ever. not because he always did the right thing. but because of the fact that he was always doing the wrong thing, yet struggling to make it right. he acknowledged his flaws. he regretted, yet he was unrepentent at the same time. an amazing character.

[hazeleste]

Who's Greek? Maya? No, but she married a Greek man once.

[djTiPS08]

still i rise got some deep lyrisc

[Nutpatch]

tupac is a cryer he cried when that girl said that he raped her true story i saw it on thug angel the girl who owned the house that tupac was and ray luv were stayin at said tupac wasnt afraid to cry he cried over the phone about that.

[simo373737]

That Is true but U Write that shit like Hes a puzzi Nigga GTfo Bitch

[LaTainaIndia]

He was human,humans cry. If he was a robot now THAT would be something to write about.Where u think all his lyrics come from from?From being in touch with his feelings/soul. Why u think the world r his fans?Becuz he speaks from & relates to their pain. U can't do that w/o crying.He never said he wasn't sensitive,he embraced it. It is what made his career.Being hard & going against nature don't do nothing but create more criminals.The anger/pain frustration gonna come out in a negative way.R.I.P

[DeezNuutz10]

@LaTainaIndia

exactly

[rideonum]

yea some times in life situations make you want too, but that don't mean you cant get your ass kicked by that same person

[rideonum]

the song is to live and die in LA THE STRING QUARTET

[Makaveli453]

how do i get that song i cant find it any where plzzzzz

[1redGee]

[NWKklown]

If only tupac coulda taken the wisdom fully, but he says wisdom is hard to swallow on this album still I rise, the song, as the world turns.

[MakaveliTR]

perfect

[bloom2132]

Makavali237 thank you so much for this video.The story that Maya Angelou tells, and the expression of 2pac after that brought a tear to my eyes.I 'll never get over Tupac's death.I wish he could be here to give us his insights on the world today.There are things going on and i would love to hear him analysing today's reality, as he did back in the 90s.

R.I.P Pac ..... I don't know if there's a heaven, but if there is, i'm sure you are up there, cause your heart was pure.

[mymanjay]

Maya Angelou does have a great way of impacting people one of the best poets of all time. Tupac is not a cryer though but every man will cry in his life at least once.

[1redGee]

fa real

[TurnOnA6pence]

What a great story, thanx for sharing, love the orchestra version of live and die in LA to

[ben32468]

That is some deep ish right there. RIP Pac

[Lemos4Life22]

shut up bitch you cant even understand the impact of what she told him, cuz your the only real pussy

[syxodude91]

thats a touching story

[losangeles6189]

[poetmm]

i wish i could meet maya

[seow22p]

[diro91]

wow

[aGwEENapple]

Great little interview! =]

[InNoZ3nt]

I wish I could meet a guy like 2Pac, but I'm not the nicest and most down-to-earth person. Only true, and unafraid individuals get to have could relationships with people like him. He was a really deep-thinking man.=]

[farram3]

i love the backround music! what's it called?

[makaveli237]

its a Tupac song " to live and die in LA "

but with violins

[farram3]

I can't find the song anywhere...do you know where i could hear the full version? if not thanks anyway!

[makaveli237]

i downloaded it from youtube once but that was months ego, i geuss its been taken off

[ESPangan01]

Look up "String Quartet Tupac" on youtube or something along those lines. You'll find a wide array of string-covers of Tupac's songs.

[farram3]

Thanks, I found it!:)

[PhyckYiu]

Beatifull!
