Agree with this drop, but what do you mean when you say, 'we will win'?

I hear you on that, but him playing violence towards his enemies lays the mentality that violence takes care of enemies. Again, he had good things to say, but his need to sell records overshadowed it at the end of his career. I guess the better question is: Are there enough "plain stupid" people out there to consider taking some responsibility? You feel me? I mean, fake thug rappers birthed a whole culture of fake thugs everywhere. Irresponsible marketing can have a huge impact.

Theres another aspect of it to. Thug life wasnt about going around it killing it people, it meant "the hate you give infants fucks everybody" , which was also true. Even if he did give off a violent image that person was to ignorant to see what his music was about

Nah, see, I'm with you on all that. You and I see eye to eye. I'm just saying he had both good and bad, but the good does not negate what he did wrong, only compensate. That's all I'm trying to say. But how many pseudo fans of 2Pac share his stress of social unrest, rather than a *thug nigga* facade, and wear his t-shirt and quote lyrics as if they were bible verses without even understanding he believed the opposite than the image his business portrayed. You dig?

Haha! Yeah, I guess I was just letting my fingers type. I meant there's a lot of people who were influenced by the tough gangster image more than the social commentary in his lyrics. His "ride on our enemies" mentality did influence impressionable listeners to adopt that mentality.
