Oops. And I did try to use that darn "search" to make sure the topic wasn't already out there. | |

Some threads that are posted that don't get replied sometimes dropped to the list thus making it hard for some to find the thread. I know some folks here including me have had that problem so it's OK. | |

Nice. I never really dug his music but I like this particular song very much. He was a great man but he hung around with the wrong people.
Are there any other rappers in the library of congress? " I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?" | |

OK . Thanks. Is it of huge importance? Is it somethinglike the Smithsonian? " I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?" | |

As far as I know, yes. It preserves important stuff. Stuff that is considered iconic. | |

But has it been added to Obama's iPod? That's the question!
Good to see this getting added. I always thought this and Keep Ya Head Up were his best songs. (I liked 2Pac better when he was eloquently supporting women rather than crassly leering at them.)
