That last part was haunting with what he did say and the expression on his face.
Seemed like something else was going through his mind,
and he looked 'hurt' or like he was about to cry or something.

It's hard to specify really because due to his high lifestyle and choices, it seemingly overshadowed his true character.



i can dig that...i know i'd enjoy his company poet to poet...but i have a feeling i would loathe him as a drunk


I agree. I would love to have known him when he wasn't drinking. He was not a happy drunk. confused

Also agree with

MLK...
Malcolm X...

John Lennon...

Brandon & Bruce Lee...tragic... sad

No one, their number got called by God, all of us have one on our head telling us when we are due to return to the kingdome of heaven.

Why the hell would bringing back Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls, the men are not Gods, they are pack of semi literate cretins who could not string a sentence together without inserting the f word.
So what are u going 2 do? R u just gonna sit there and watch? I'm not gonna stop until the war is over. Its gonna take a long time

Right. Pac had a lot of sides to him but he definitely wasn't your average person, he did more in 25 years than most do in 2 lives.

Many of us know that, but just imagine you were God. Don't take this thread seriously. It's an imaginary game and you get to pick your favorite person to bring back from the dead. Now, if you think that you're God, then that's where the problem comes in.

The italicized sentence is completely inaccurate. Listen to Biggie's "Sky's The Limit" or Tupac's "Changes" and "Dear Mama"; you'll notice there are no expletives at all in those pieces. Secondly the bolded word "are" you used in the aforementioned sentence shows your semi-literacy as they are dead and should be referred to in the past tense, thus "were". You also forgot to add "a" before the word "pack" confused

Ok They were a pair of semi literate cretins, and yes they had a couple of Clean songs, but as far as I and a lot of others would agree, they caused more harm than good, they had objectionable morals and their level of proficiency as musicians showed serious limitations. How many instruments could they play?, how many humanitarian charities did they belong to?, despite writing raps could they read music, could they write instrumental parts. The answer was a firm and resounding no. These people got where they were through sheer anger and hate.

lol like prince didn't do almost all the "bad" things in that paragraph at one stage in his career.

Would you tell an opera singer they needed to play an instrument before you considered them talented?

It's not about any of that and this is coming from someone that composes music and has composed instrumental pieces. (I can't read sheet music but neither can Prince)

Honestly... You get into it way too serious. It's about who people wanna see back personally it's not relevant if they can write a symphony. It's...

1. Personal opinion
2. a fun thread
3. the reason for bringing them back is an individual choice
4. a significant contribution to life isn't limited to the field of music
