That is unfair and wrong. Most preachers I've ever known, including my granddad, used notes or an outline of the teaching. That is just public speaking 101. I agree that reading a script verbatum is lame, though.
He's saying that showing thug-like behavior is just an outward condition that comes from bad human influences; that having that "condition" does not mean that the "conclusion" of your life is being a thug forever; and that God saves everyone, regardless of how they are living their lives.
Many preachers have a written sermon prepared in front of them if one were to inspect the podium closely. And then, some have notes or qoutes they refer to casually to guide the tone of their sermon. MLK, and others had written sermons and notes in front of them. And certainly there are styles-a-plenty when it comes to preaching, and I've enjoyed all kinds at one point or another. I grew up with a pastor that would start off talking and build up to a powerful climactic talk-sing style.
Pimping out his wife is essentially what he does, I don't know if you can disagree with that.
Also although I'm not real keen on throwing around the word prophet, in the sense that he's doing God's work in his opinion is totally valid. He also says he's the greatest prophetic contradiction... caught between the shining heavens of possibility and the hell of socially constructed reality. Neither saint nor demon."
I definitely wouldn't have glorified tupac like that, but he says he's all human
Clearly there are people who have commented that have not read the bible. God usually uses those who communicate with their people at a level of understanding that reaches their spirit. By the way, one definition for a prophet is one who can foresee things that are not apparent to most. Certainly Tupac was very prophetic in his writing. Don't judge a lifestyle or a man because only GOD can do that. He will use the very person you are trying to belittle to teach you "HE IS!"
He's not preaching...he's just reading. I've always wondered about the exagerated language, the misuse of adjectives and the invention of words. "Countrified", what a joke. "Gin and juice", another joke.

Now, is he saying "thuggary" is a good thing or a bad thing? I can't really tell.

For one, saying that Tupac is a prophet. That is blasphemous. In another sermon of his he called Abraham a "pimp". This is pure blasphemy.

You're absolutely right, using notes makes you a fake
