If Tupac had lived.....

What he had verbally crucified Soulja Boy? Would he like Lil' Wayne's music? Would he and Kanye had words? Would he still been putting out albums today? Would he had been accused of having something to do with Biggie's death? Would he had eventually been signed to Bad Boy Records or to Roc-a-fella?

Questions hmmm Makes you wonder.

Nah..he would have been right there with Ice Cube and them...kinda stuck after a while but still reign as West Coast supreme rapper. But thats the way things are supposed to be...I couldnt imagine him in this day and time

Too many what if's but it's interesting to ponder about. Pac personally was the type to say one thing at one point leave the room come back 5 min later and say the total opposite and have a change of mind. He could move mountains so much knowledge. At the same time he was at war with himself constantly. It's sad. Obviously age would've matured him and he would've been wiser, This is the dude that was cool with people like Fresh Prince/Will Smith and had a lot of appreciation for the old school rappers. That said I don't think many new rappers would've had their shine had Biggie and Pac lived. Jay-Z rips off a lot from Biggie and if Biggie had lived maybe Jay wouldn't have made the steps he has made in recent years. I'm not into the new rap artists a lot. Jesus Walks is a song that's the bomb though.

Most likely Pac would've wanted to do something in the politics area.

Had he lived, he would've been mainly an actor, and a good one at that. He would do a couple of albums here and there but mainly soundtrack work. He'd diss some of the wack ass rappers out there now but would be cool with them in the end. Hopefully him aging would grant him more maturity.

If both he and Biggie had lived, the rap game would have been much different. It would have forced Jigga to be more consistent, in the material that he releases, (instead of this one CD great the next CD, so-so, bullshit). There would not no such person as Lil' John and "Southern Rap", would not even exist.

No, southern rap would've existed still.

It might have, but it would have been allot better than it is now... If I hear one more song done to a nursery rhyme beat, I am gonna scream!!

He'd probably be like Ice Cube, spending more time acting than rapping.

thanks for this thread! I am a huge Tupac fan and I love to see posts about him.
I think that if he lived (and didn't get shot by someone else), he would have been a huge movie star! he would have definitely crucified Solja boy,who shouldn't even be allowed to rap. He may have liked Lil Wayne...

Kinda reminds me of Aaliyah's blog. Nope, he wouldn't be as big as Beyonce, too raunchy. Yeah, he'll probably continue banging other rapper's girls and write a song about it. Watch out, Jay-Z. Yeah, he would probably venture into other avenues, such as his own clothing line. Well, that's it. Honestly, who knows.

If he had lived, he would have eventually faded out like everyone usually does and would never have gotten the undeserving "Elvis legend" status that he got after his death.

I hated him in the end of his career being from NY. When he did I didnt care really.

I had a feeling even before his death that he was gonna get fatally shot because he was acting like an idiot.

True he was acting like an idiot, but I think it was a valuable reason behind it, and actually I believe that it was all a stunt. He was acting like a puppet for Suge Knight because he believe he owed him when Suge got him out of jail. And I still believe until the day that I die that Suge had something to do with his death. If Tupac hadn't died that fateful night, I don't know if I believe that somebody else would have eventually shot him....people can change.

I agree about Suge. Have the same feeling always.

Eminem, Jay-Z, Nas, 50 Cent, and damn nearly all of The Dirty South rappers (especially Lil'Wayne) benefited from the murder of 2pac. And if 2pac had lived, most of those same rappers wouldn't have a rap career right now.
