Tupac 👑 recorded over 713 songs, acted in 7 movies between 1991 and 1996, sold 75 million records without internet, had 9 platinum albums, and when he left he left 7 albums ready to be released. All this with 25 years! Greatest Rapper In History! 🐐💯
Honestly we're lucky his work ethic was legendary. Every other rapper whos passed, dont have enough songs to release. We're robbed of their talents but in pacs case we can at least say we got a lifetime of work for most artists.
You ABSOLUTELY don't have to be black to FEEL this song. As a white man growing up with Pac as an idol to both myself and my friends, this was happening during the color blind push that was trying to wake everyone up to just loving one anothers differences, and embrace listening to one another. Then actually caring enough to make a difference, instead of fighting. Everything he said at that time is facts. And it still rings true today, even when the ones in those ivory towers want us to think differently. Much love!
Everyone can feel the song, but everyone feels it differently. Think that's what he's saying. Then you have to be black to feel it the way he does. The song and the content affect us all in different ways but it affects us all.
Tupac was more than a rapper....He was a poet, actor, and a revolutionary....His works are timeless and incomparable to any other rapper. He was and is the definition of the G.O.A.T.
One of my favorite quotes is from pac. He said I'm not saying I'm going to change the world but I GUARANTEE YOU I will spark the mind that does change the world

Too bad we ant minority report…change ant comin… live what u can as best u can and even doin that may get ya taken off the map for no reason isn’t that just what a great species is what it is
I’m 34, I grew up listening to Pac. I don’t blame your mother for snapping on u for saying Drake is better than Pac… there is no comparison between the two. I used to love rap, but the music out there today… it disturbs me. Wish I could go back to the 90s. Keep doing more Pac reactions guys, it’s so great to see younger generations listening and enjoying his music. I’d recommend you do “Hellrazor” next. Great reaction 🙋🏻♀️🙌🏼👍🏼👏🏼💜🇨🇦
How can you be on fire for Biggie and never have listened to 2Pac??? They were BOTH the Kings of their time on opposite Coasts. Those who knew one, knew the other. I’m glad you guys took the time to listen and open the door to his HISTORY. 2Pac CHANGED the world. ♥️🌟♥️
@@simonlhill-si4sxkinda, he moved around a lot and he lived in Baltimore. That light skin girl in Poetic Justice who played Pac’s BM is his HS friend in real life from Baltimore.
Respect! What he was able to recognize, understand and feel in his soul, was on a whole other higher level! Through his music, he was really elevating us up with him! I have so much gratitude for what he was trying to do with his time on earth in his last years of life ❤
Agreed, just as the original "thats the way it is, by Bruce Hornsby and the range is still relevant, worth a listen also. a different but similar message.
There will never be another rapper like Pac. He transcended rap. He was an artist sent for a specific purpose. His lyrics are relevant today and always. You don't just hear Tupac, You FEEL Tupac! That's why he's the greatest, IMO.
It was a great loss, and an even greater one to the black community. He was a leader and highly intelligent. He could've been a real leader and made actual change in this world 💯💯
💯% correct. Below is a sample of the Original 80's song that Pac sampled for "Changes". Jmo, 2 Pac WILL ALWAYS be the GOAT 🐐, Em's on my list for #2 with no disrespect to Dr. Dre or Snoop..... that's just the way it is 😉 th-cam.com/video/vOdfyL8OkOU/w-d-xo.html
@@nxt1990 The machine gun drums/guitars for starters. You can forget the deep, nasty tones you can get from the guitars. Then there's the harsh vocals. They're definitely an aquired taste, but if you can learn the techniques and actually learn to growl, it'll open so many doors. Trust me, not just anybody can do that.
I was a young white girl from the South Appalachia, but Tupac made me feel and somehow I felt connected to him and his message. We were all poor and broke here. We didn’t have the privilege to worry about what color we were. We were just surviving and leaning on each other. I always loved him and he’s definitely an OG.
All you have to do is type in Appalachia racism on the TH-cam search bar and boom 💥 videos of black people telling their stories.. There's definitely racism there. Let's stop pretending there's some magical place where people are incapable of hating black people.. Racism is a global problem that must be resolved by improving education. We must learn more about each other in order to remove the ignorance. 2pac was good at teaching, hopefully you were truly listening.
@@j.gyamayaka5826 We are all mixed up in here and have bigger things to worry about besides how cute we are cause we all mixed up. We beautiful and strong out here cause we all had to be. Come at me a/ that bullshit, people out her loving & living, fuck y’all’s bullshit. We good out here. We will out survive all y’all
As a freaking small boy in India, when all of my peers and fellows listened to indian songs, I was the only one listening to old school hip hop. It was crazy how relatable and supportive Pac's and Big's songs were. I now live elsewhere, but still be banging Pac, Big, Nas, and Em all day. Pac is more emotion and feels, big is more rhymes and chill. Crazy combination if you are fan of both of them. Respect to them.
I am a 47 year old, rock music loving, white Canadian and Changes is in my top 5 favourite songs ever! Tupac was a poet and his music had a beautiful flow to it. Glad to see it still getting recognized today.
We lost a legend when we lost Tupac. He made everyone unite through music. He truly made a difference during his short time with us. May he RIP. I'll never forget the news coming across when he died. Everyone was shocked.
That you guys have never listened to 2pac Changes.... WTF :D as a swedish kid, when i was 13 years old i knew his whole album. This is a must! just as bob marley is a must to hear - all legendary.
@@figo007tv bro I'm also a youngster and I've known this song since I was a kid and I'm 21 now. This can arguably be the best rap song (even though I think it's NY state of mind). If you call yourself black, then this is a must know. It's part of rap and black conscience history.
@@shameegbastiaan1723 again, you’ll need to relax a bit. Give them time to gel into the music. Bravo 👏🏾 👏🏾👏🏾to you! I’ve been to rap concerts in the 90s. Plus this is great musical content for them.
Pac is beyond Hip Hop they even have college courses based on Tupac and his poetry . Pac is the Most iconic name in Hip hop and also his name is there with MJ,Prince ,Whitney and others . That’s how they rate him and yes his music even in death touches you. If you don’t know anything about Pac I suggest you research. First Hip Hop artist to release a double CD and still selling til this day. Check out his Track “Hellrazor” 🔥🔥🔥
Years ago when they released a CD with his poetry I went out and got it immediately. Some of his popular songs started out as poems. He did have some really good poems and my favorite one, even though it's simple to some, is 'The Rose That Grew From Concrete.'
i am so glad that i grew up with it, i am türkish born and raised in hamburg, guys 2pac was diffrent, 4get these rappers today he really wanted to change somethink and wanted ppl to listen
To get a better understanding of how Tupac thought about things, you MUST watch his interviews. This young man in his early 20s having thoughts like an old, well experienced, mature man. How profound. A MUST WATCH.
I was a little white girl in baptist suburban area when I first heard this and it had such an impact on my life, "I see no changes, all I see is racist faces. Misplaced hate makes disgrace to races". My soul felt that, and this song introduced the idea to me about the war on drugs actually being a war on poverty.... then off was the journey of seeing systemic racism, understanding white privilege actually means. When someone shows you truth through art, it can speak to to you in powerful ways. I was under the impression things had changed for the better, but he showed me there had not been many changes. I can't believe I will never get to thank him in person for being who he was and using his talent to fight for a better world.
Always lost in the conversation, is how young Tupac Shakur was when he wrote these profoundly powerful songs. Ive rarely met a person in their 40s with this level of clarity about how the world actually is. Yet at the tender age of his early 20s, Tupac saw the world for what it was and was able to communicate it to every race to open eyes.
Pac was more than just a rapper. He had a deeply philosophical mind. His poetry was crazy inspirational. He was a talented actor. I'm a 56 year old white woman from a tiny little town. A very large portion of my playlists are his recordings.
I'm surprised it's your first time listening to this timeless master piece... I'm from a tiny town in Angola, Cabinda province... The desire to understand the lyric of this song made me and many of my friends learn the English Language and with it came opportunity for jobs at the oil sector. This song made many people open their mind and be reasonable with life. So you see, this songs changed a lot of lives in my home town and world wide.
This ....and Dear Mama.....all time.favs....Pac went soooo hard on this. He was all about social commentary rap. Pac came from wokeness....Poet for the people ❤❤❤
A lot about Tupac is tragic but I think what saddens me the most is how he was maturing. He was really coming into himself as a man and a black man as he matured and his music reflected that. He made some ghetto bangers but he also had Dear Mama and Brenda’s got a Baby. He really could have been a visionary and helped mold the culture but like most black visionaries he was killed before his time. Just like MLK, just like Huey, just like Malcom.
I heard someone say that Tupac was like a philosopher and music was his way of delivering his teachings, and the way this song was hitting you guys really shows how true that is. Tupac is my absolute favorite. He wasn't just a rapper, he was an academic and it showed in what he was saying in so many of his interviews. He was too good and smart for this world, so he left it too soon. RIP King.
This is one of my favorite reaction videos of yours because it sparked real dialogue. Change comes slowly and isn't linear. But with each new generation, it will keep getting better. Keep pushing for changes and pass your knowledge to the next generation. We'll get there.
As a suburban white kid when this song came out, I remember feeling a certain way. I still feel it ... I imagine this resonates in a completely different way to black people.
Tupac is a poet, he grew up around Panthers and I can just imagine how some of those conversations went. Some of his poetry was taught in school, I did an essay on his influence and lyrics in school back in the 90s (and im a random white girl from Sydney Australia lol) his reach and message went around the world.
I’m from Syd too, grew up with PAC and I was living in Bankstown at the worst of times. He made living through that tough time better. He transcended his genre to the point where my mum listens to his music and can appreciate it. God takes his prophets to teach us lessons. 2Pac may have been a thug but he was also a prophet and what we needed but refused to listen too
It was such a privilege watching you guys reacting to Tupac’s “Changes”. You guys are brilliant …. You should all be proud of yourselves …. Each and every one of you.
@simonlhill-si4sx I'm talking about his music. He was an incredibly talented and intelligent young man, despite the fact of where he came from. Nobody growing up where and how he did could come away from that totally unscathed It's insane the number of people these days that seem to think life is just black or white, no in between. It's either this OR that, never this AND that, either team this or team that, never, WELL I JUST LIKE THEM ALL, SO CHILL TF OUT!! Tupac wouldn't have been the amazing artist that he was, had he grown up 'privileged', and that's just a fact. There's no need to hate on a guy who isn't here to defend himself.
@@Leonforever5 he was a pos and convicted rapist, he tried to get involved with gangs and jumping well known killers and members of the crips, recording disgusting songs like hit ‘em up and the en trying to be a saviour of the black race. Live by the sword die by the sword.
He was droppin so many pearls in that song! He was so deep and in tune with the struggles and complications life throws at us.... Oh my heart! The feelz😭
Thank you guys 😊 I love you guys ....I'm 36 and I love listening to you guys figuring it all out!!!!!!!! 2pac was so deep and hit this little white girls heart at 12 . He is amazing but truly I might be a Stan.
People who didn't live during tupac will never officially understand the full experience. The guy came out with 4-5 albums after he died. Noone thought he was actually dead because his album Makaveli came out after he died. Makaveli was someone who faked his own death to fool his enemies.
I'm a Turkish Cypriot and British and Tupac is my favourite rapper of all time. He was a lyrical genius and someone with sincerity in his words, he was real and pure heart. I love him and I grew up listeninf to him. We all have hardships in life, whether black, white, Turk, Arab, whatever. You can resonate with Pacs feelings and words. He was a G in his own right. He knew how people felt and he spoke for everyone and he loved his own race and advocated for his people and everyone that was discriminated against. Love Tupac foever ❤
Tupac was the goat! When it comes to pure passion and love for the music, he was unmatched. Look up his work ethic and how he used to handle studio time.
What's wild is that this track ties The Grateful Dead to Tupac and the crossover between jambands and hip hip. When Brent Midland died Bruce Hornsby took over on the keyboard for several tours.
Tupac wasn’t just a rapper, he was a preacher!! He was speaking truth and waking folks up and he got killed for it. Glad he made his message immortal in his records. RIP to the greatest!
I’ve heard this song a million times, over 20+ years, and it still gives me chills. Most of his songs do. Because he had something to say, most of it profound. You know, Eminem had a very close relationship with Tupac’s mother, Afeni. She said this about Eminem regarding Tupac’s 9th studio album/fifth posthumous album, “loyal to the game”, which Eminem produced: “This is the ninth album we have released since my son left us. I have worked, struggled called on many people who my son loved while he was here and on the many who loved him back. In these last eight years, I’ve had too many people to count, come to me and say that they are Tupac’s brothers, sisters, comrades, soldiers and friends. Many say that without Tupac, they would not have made it through their hardships-would not have made it to the other side where personal success was awaiting them. They vow that they are ‘here for me’ and ‘here for Tupac’ or for whatever I may need. Yet in the same conversation, they ask if I have $150,000 to send their way, or if there is an unreleased Tupac verse for a single on their new album. Not until now has anyone approached me to give everything they have, and to give it with such integrity. I have built and now stand strong on the foundation of individuals I believe were brought to me by Tupac so that I am able to receive the gift of generosity given to me by a young man who not only asked for nothing in return for his services, but refused to accept anything I offered. This is the spirit I want my son’s work created in. This is the spirit that we all need to search our souls for to give to each other, unconditionally, without personal agenda for no reason but that it’s the right thing to do. I believe this young man has given his spirit to Tupac’s project because of what Tupac’s spirit gave to him and to all of us, young, old, male, female, black, white and brown. Take example of what Tupac gave us, take example of what this young man who never had the opportunity to meet Tupac gave to this project. Take example of the people who worked on this and all of Tupac’s projects before, who knew my son, who gave with every ounce of strength and love they have in them and who work through constant reminder of their own loss to stay loyal to their goal. I suggest you stay loyal to your dreams, stay loyal to the struggle Tupac died for, to make this world a better and safer place for our children to grow in… I thank you all for the support you give my son through everything. I must personally thank Marshall Mathers, for stepping up to the plate, and in Tupac’s words…I thank him for staying loyal to the game… Peace, Love, & Respect, Afeni Shakur”
The album was Blasphemous in my opinion. PAC didn’t like Dr Dre. Eminem was blowing up and had the money to pay off his mother. That’s not Tupac rapping on 99% of the album. There’s several fake Tupac’s throughout the album. While I did like some of the songs, they were not Tupac’s work and shouldn’t be credited as such. There were several bootleg Makaveli albums released after his death that more authentic than Loyal 2 the Game.
I was born in 1979, Tupac's music hit my generation the hardest and I still (to this very day) listen to him every day. There is no other rapper in the game today who's lyrics are truer or more prophetical. I can throw on any song of his right now and hear something that he described 20 yrs ago, that is happening today that he predicted. Not saying he could tell the future, but he had an uncanny knack for understanding, not only people, but society as a whole. Life is corrupt, people are prejudiced and full of hate in ALL races, Tupac knew it and wasn't afraid to say it, point it out to us through his music. The day he died; I'll never forget it, rap music lost one of its pioneers, and it has never been the same since. True, there are many talented artists in the world today but none so much as the ones that were born in the late 80's and early 90's (in my opinion that is lol, though I may be a little biased), sadly a lot of them are gone now. We keep them alive by listening to them, paying them the respect they deserve. It makes me happy to see these young men above doing the same.
The beauty and power of Tupac is look how ENERGIZED these guys are when they pause the 2nd verse. That's what Tupac did to people and what his music still does. Pure power!
Tupac was a poet and gave light to so many issues! I loved him and still do! It speaks volumes that everything he wrote then is unfortunately still true today! What a beautiful writer and performer! ❤
Tupac was a lot of things. Rapper, actor, he was into the arts 🎭 whilst in school. His POETRY is what I adore about him. He just had a way with words that was so beautiful & also cut deeply as well. He was so young… however you’d think he’d already lived a lifetime. It’s as if he could tell the future (us) what we needed to do! A true gift from God he was. 💙✌🏼
Tupac was so far ahead of his time. I was a young white girl bumping this song and so many of his other hits. He was actually saying something and making people of all races open their eyes to the world around us. I agree with Solomon when he said Tupac was too smart to be a thug. He was raised by a very intelligent single mother. Both gone way too soon. Glad yall are listening and paying attention! Love you my baby boys!
Idk where to start when it comes to recommending a 2pac song!! "Ambitionz of a Rida", "Until The End of Time", "If I Die 2nite", "Hellrazor", "So Many Tears" are all legendary tracks to start on!!
Shocked to learn that 5 educated young black men had yet to give the time to listen to 2pac. He is and always will be an American treasure. Millions heard him, and hopefully man more listened. Be well, fella's.
Yep he was seen & treated as a young black thug by many.... some understandably by his own doing but you can't deny the artistic genius & poetic loving caring soft natured other side to him. It was tragic & still is that for all he accomplished he was still only 25 😔
These 5 are so annoying. Other youngsters that have a channel know to shut up and listen, then at the end speak. 🙄If you shut up & listen you guys could learn a thing or two! 😠
This song stands, we are all humans! Turn your palm around! We're all human beings! Love each other take care of each other, protect each other! 2PAC is the realest one to ever do it! Peace and love!
In terms of bars and punchlines Pac wasn't the best but in terms of message, delivery and song making ability he is the goat in my opinion, its been over 25 years since he was killed and his music is still as powerful today as it was when I was growing up... he's the greatest ARTIST, musician in hip hop history. Rest in peace. Literally only 25 when he was killed as well... too young.
You obviously don't listen to enough 2pac. Cause that mad had bars and witty punchlines. The most repetitive thing for people to say that " 2pac wasn't lyrical" or "2pac didn't have bars " lol
@@jarvasedundy1 how wrong you are, I was actually listening to Tupac BEFORE he died, i was young AF listening to Pac, I remember where I was when I found out he died actually. My statement holds true and you should learn to read what other people say better... I didn't say he didn't have bars or wasn't lyrical, I said "in terms of bars and punchlines Pac wasn't the best", which is absolutely correct, we can all name multiple emcees better at that aspect of rapping than Pac. He was a storyteller, a poet and a conscious emcee, not a punchline rapper who "rapped about rapping", but you probably just need to listen to Pac more to understand what I mean.
@@RushNZ I respect your opinion, and you're still not right songs that he had bars in: If My Homie Calls Trapped Rebel Of the Underground I Get Around Troublesome (96) Me Against The World If I Die 2nite How Do You Want It Can't C Me Ambition As A Ridah Heartz Of Men Hail Mary Under Pressure Made Niggaz Bomb First 2 Live In Die N LA Me And My Girlfriend I Get Around Street Fame My Block Blasphemy Big Daddy ft. 2pac- Whatever U Are (his verse) Got My Mind Made Up Thug Passion
@@RushNZ I just gave you 24 songs off the head I could think of. My point to you, 2pac had bars. I remembered one day listening to his lyrics on screen on my TV on Spotify and saying. Bro how can people say 2pac wasn't lyrical or didn't have bars. Man had dope bars.
The most influential & greatest of all time! Years later & still relevant. Y’all should definitely react to more of his songs - Brenda’s Got A Baby, War Stories, Unconditional Love, Better Days, etc..
1 of my favorite songs ever and still feel the same emotions as I did as a teenager listening to this…between changes and dear mama from Tupac these songs have always spoken to my soul and will never grow old to me ❤
A lot of white people, myself included, can relate so much to Tupac's music. Coming from Eastern Europe, from poverty, from a broken family, Tupac has been my light. I couldn't afford a tattoo at the time so i got 2Pac carved into my flesh. I love you Pac, thank you for everything you did for me, I hope I get to see you one day...
I'm a white guy from the UK and would love to listen to these tunes with you black men!!! I love your videos guys, keep up the good work race is just a colour you guys are brilliant together 👍🏻
Fellas, I grew up in an apartment complex that was predominantly black. I wasn’t allowed to listen to anything but country music, but I found my way to 2Pac, Biggie and basically every other “old” song you guys are reacting to. Seeing y’all react to this (among other songs) is dope. I wish everyone could hear this kind of music and resonate with it. I’m from southeast Texas, right outside of Beaumont and I hear you guys talking about Houston and Louisiana a lot. Y’all have become my favorite reaction channel. Just wanted to say keep doing what y’all are doing! Much love.
Im 50 years old now and I loved 2 Pac and Biggie and Nas an all them man if i could go back to the 90s I would GAAAAAAAAAAAAAD DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMM XXXX
The thing I liked about Tupac was the fact that he became a voice for the black community, but also represented people of all races. I remember watching the movie All Eyez on Me which was a very good movie (I think at least). But the way I look at Eminem is that he's a product of Biggie and Tupac. Biggie was known for his flow, Tupac was known for his lyricism and real life issues. Eminem now has both of those, while still killing the game now. But with all these young rappers out here spitting nonsense...Biggie and Pac would be upset at how the rap game has shifted.
This came out when I was a kid. As an old white Aussie its awesome to see young black folks hear this for the first time and realise how incredible 'Pac was.
Tupac 👑 recorded over 713 songs, acted in 7 movies between 1991 and 1996, sold 75 million records without internet, had 9 platinum albums, and when he left he left 7 albums ready to be released. All this with 25 years! Greatest Rapper In History! 🐐💯
Honestly we're lucky his work ethic was legendary. Every other rapper whos passed, dont have enough songs to release. We're robbed of their talents but in pacs case we can at least say we got a lifetime of work for most artists.
He earned it!🙏 R.I.p 2 Pac
Dont forget !!!!!! Pac was only 3month 25year !!!!!

You ABSOLUTELY don't have to be black to FEEL this song. As a white man growing up with Pac as an idol to both myself and my friends, this was happening during the color blind push that was trying to wake everyone up to just loving one anothers differences, and embrace listening to one another. Then actually caring enough to make a difference, instead of fighting. Everything he said at that time is facts.

Yeah, today's world is not as divided as the 90's were. This song spoke to many people of that generation, regardless of their skin colour.
Everyone can feel the song, but everyone feels it differently. Think that's what he's saying. Then you have to be black to feel it the way he does. The song and the content affect us all in different ways but it affects us all.
That’s facts. In Early High School that’s all I wanted to listen to was Pac. That’s all I fekt

He was a Prophet
That’s why they killed him.
There are classes in college about Tupac and his poetry. No other rapper on this earth can claim that.

Make sure people who slaughter people get a defense that ant no job in any reality we look like the most i un evolved garbage I’ve ever seen .. it really is what it is. The amount of people being born right now to only turn into what they do in life as in a big thing that’s bad or do nothing and kill other people wrong way highway shit like damn it’s sucks you even landed here ur purpose was to take lives that’s fun … it’s pretty sick if u knew what ur actually surrounded by and living amongst and now ? And like the 80’s don’t remember vegas shit in the 80s of course peeps got killed but now we have a fetish and u these r humans that are never shoulda … but we breeed them alll day creating future chaos it’s like disturbing dude. Too bad we ant minority report…change ant comin… live what u can as best u can and even doin that may get ya taken off the map for no reason isn’t that just what a great species is what it is

I’m 34, I grew up listening to Pac. I don’t blame your mother for snapping on u for saying Drake is better than Pac… there is no comparison between the two. I used to love rap, but the music out there today… it disturbs me. Wish I could go back to the 90s. Keep doing more Pac reactions guys, it’s so great to see younger generations listening and enjoying his music. I’d recommend you do “Hellrazor” next. Great reaction 🙋🏻♀️🙌🏼👍🏼👏🏼💜🇨🇦
There is still alotta dope artists even young ones droppin new ish. Just gotta dig down into the underground & find the buried treasure.
Naw Pac is better
Drake wasn't late, but not greater than great than Pac
Shoutout to amber🙏🔥🔥🔥
Drake and pac don’t belong in the same sentence
@@thekinghomie4268 I’m Canadian and I approve this message.
How can you be on fire for Biggie and never have listened to 2Pac??? They were BOTH the Kings of their time on opposite Coasts. Those who knew one, knew the other. I’m glad you guys took the time to listen and open the door to his HISTORY. 2Pac CHANGED the world. ♥️🌟♥️
You know Parish Crooks was from New York too yeah?
@@simonlhill-si4sxkinda, he moved around a lot and he lived in Baltimore. That light skin girl in Poetic Justice who played Pac’s BM is his HS friend in real life from Baltimore.

@@SyntheticaYTmajority of these youtubers do that for engagment, its no way atleast 95% havent heard this or any pac songs yet
The kings of their times was Nas and 2Pac imo
This song was relevant back then. Now and will always be because 2pacs music is UNIVERSAL AND PROFOUND ...also impactful
Respect!
What he was able to recognize, understand and feel in his soul, was on a whole other higher level!
Through his music, he was really elevating us up with him!
I have so much gratitude for what he was trying to do with his time on earth in his last years of life ❤
Actaully, things are significantly different, both economically, and interracially... but his sentiments at the time where on point.
Agreed, just as the original "thats the way it is, by Bruce Hornsby and the range is still relevant, worth a listen also. a different but similar message.
@@nunya2171 oh yes!
I think that's why this song was chosen too!
No CAP
There will never be another rapper like Pac. He transcended rap. He was an artist sent for a specific purpose. His lyrics are relevant today and always.
You don't just hear Tupac, You FEEL Tupac! That's why he's the greatest, IMO.
It was a great loss, and an even greater one to the black community. He was a leader and highly intelligent. He could've been a real leader and made actual change in this world 💯💯
💯% correct. Below is a sample of the Original 80's song that Pac sampled for "Changes". Jmo, 2 Pac WILL ALWAYS be the GOAT 🐐, Em's on my list for #2 with no disrespect to Dr. Dre or Snoop..... that's just the way it is 😉

"He was an artist sent for a specific purpose." Hit the nail on the head.
What's really sad is that I feel like there NEEDS to be another one like him!
But no one can ever be!😪
Exactly bro these young cats have no idea
There is a huge difference between pac and rappers today. Pac was true. Pure. A genuine genius. As the song says, “my mama didn’t raise no fool”.
I am a metal guy, and Tupac broke genre boundries. He is one of the few rappers I can stand.
I cant stand any metal
@@hj8092, then you are living a sad sheltered life. 🤷♂️
@@profanepersonality honest question: what is appealing about metal to you? Trying to understand.
@@nxt1990 The machine gun drums/guitars for starters. You can forget the deep, nasty tones you can get from the guitars. Then there's the harsh vocals. They're definitely an aquired taste, but if you can learn the techniques and actually learn to growl, it'll open so many doors. Trust me, not just anybody can do that.
@@nxt1990, relatable and educating lyrics. Passion. Feel of the instruments. Just everything.
I was a young white girl from the South Appalachia, but Tupac made me feel and somehow I felt connected to him and his message. We were all poor and broke here. We didn’t have the privilege to worry about what color we were. We were just surviving and leaning on each other. I always loved him and he’s definitely an OG.
All you have to do is type in Appalachia racism on the TH-cam search bar and boom 💥 videos of black people telling their stories..
There's definitely racism there. Let's stop pretending there's some magical place where people are incapable of hating black people.. Racism is a global problem that must be resolved by improving education. We must learn more about each other in order to remove the ignorance. 2pac was good at teaching, hopefully you were truly listening.

This is not just a song, this is an experience, and education 💯🔥🔥
As a white man, in my 50s, that has been a rap fan since Ghetto Boys and Grandmaster Flash, I can honestly say, in my opinion, Tupac IS the G.O.A.T.!
2pacs's songs are timeless.
Tupac sampled this song . Check out Bruce Hornsby and the range they created this song . ( the way it is ) and you will see .
As a freaking small boy in India, when all of my peers and fellows listened to indian songs, I was the only one listening to old school hip hop. It was crazy how relatable and supportive Pac's and Big's songs were. I now live elsewhere, but still be banging Pac, Big, Nas, and Em all day. Pac is more emotion and feels, big is more rhymes and chill. Crazy combination if you are fan of both of them. Respect to them.
"Tupac, we need you right now bruh" no truer words were ever said. RIP to the G.O.A.T.
Yall clown to dam much!!! Pac spoke facts!!! RESPECT TO HIM RIP KING!!!
Couldn't agree more.
I am a 47 year old, rock music loving, white Canadian and Changes is in my top 5 favourite songs ever! Tupac was a poet and his music had a beautiful flow to it. Glad to see it still getting recognized today.
I have been a Tupac fan for 28 years now. No matter how much time goes by his lyrics are still relevant. He is timeless and absolutely the Goat!
I’m in my 40’s and this is my era. Pac was and will forever be Legendary. He saw and sang why was going on in the world before anyone else
Please do more 2pac reactions, Pac's message was bigger than hip hop, he truly changed people's perspectives heavily.
We lost a legend when we lost Tupac. He made everyone unite through music. He truly made a difference during his short time with us. May he RIP. I'll never forget the news coming across when he died. Everyone was shocked.
Pac was a poet and spoke from his soul
I subbed for an English teacher a few years ago. She had a book of Tupac’s poetry. It was amazing!
yes he was. I gravitate to rappers who rap like poetry. I always said his raps are poetry.
Can’t believe you never listened to 2pac. Sad that he left this world so young.
They are lieng like a bunch of these youtbe reactors do. No way they havent heard a shit load of these songs they react to

Relax. They’re youngsters. Eventually they will hear it all.
@@figo007tv bro I'm also a youngster and I've known this song since I was a kid and I'm 21 now. This can arguably be the best rap song (even though I think it's NY state of mind). If you call yourself black, then this is a must know. It's part of rap and black conscience history.

Pac is beyond Hip Hop they even have college courses based on Tupac and his poetry . Pac is the Most iconic name in Hip hop and also his name is there with MJ,Prince ,Whitney and others . That’s how they rate him and yes his music even in death touches you. If you don’t know anything about Pac I suggest you research.
First Hip Hop artist to release a double CD and still selling til this day. Check out his Track “Hellrazor” 🔥🔥🔥
Mama raised a hellraiser
Years ago when they released a CD with his poetry I went out and got it immediately. Some of his popular songs started out as poems. He did have some really good poems and my favorite one, even though it's simple to some, is 'The Rose That Grew From Concrete.'

To get a better understanding of how Tupac thought about things, you MUST watch his interviews. This young man in his early 20s having thoughts like an old, well experienced, mature man. How profound. A MUST WATCH.
Facts
absolutely. Very true.
Pac was different. He was so matured at such a young age
I was a little white girl in baptist suburban area when I first heard this and it had such an impact on my life, "I see no changes, all I see is racist faces. Misplaced hate makes disgrace to races". My soul felt that, and this song introduced the idea to me about the war on drugs actually being a war on poverty.... then off was the journey of seeing systemic racism, understanding white privilege actually means. When someone shows you truth through art, it can speak to to you in powerful ways. I was under the impression things had changed for the better, but he showed me there had not been many changes. I can't believe I will never get to thank him in person for being who he was and using his talent to fight for a better world.
Beautiful story, thank you for sharing
Always lost in the conversation, is how young Tupac Shakur was when he wrote these profoundly powerful songs. Ive rarely met a person in their 40s with this level of clarity about how the world actually is. Yet at the tender age of his early 20s, Tupac saw the world for what it was and was able to communicate it to every race to open eyes.
2Pac is timeless. Still my #1 til this day, this track is just as relevant now as it was in 1996
Pac was more than just a rapper. He had a deeply philosophical mind. His poetry was crazy inspirational. He was a talented actor. I'm a 56 year old white woman from a tiny little town. A very large portion of my playlists are his recordings.
I'm surprised it's your first time listening to this timeless master piece... I'm from a tiny town in Angola, Cabinda province...
The desire to understand the lyric of this song made me and many of my friends learn the English Language and with it came opportunity for jobs at the oil sector.
This song made many people open their mind and be reasonable with life. So you see, this songs changed a lot of lives in my home town and world wide.
Absolutely amazing story
forca irmao
So you’re actively destroying the environment? Lol lol.
Deep dive into PAC. His non super popular songs are by far his best.
FACTS!!!
But Changes is definitely one of the super popular ones, if not THE single most popular one.
Hard disagree
@@Livingtree32 It is up there but Dear Momma is more popular and had been inducted into the Library of Congress.
“Only fear of death” from the R U still down album and most tracks on that LP are 🔥🔥🔥🔥
The scary part is he spit this mid 90s and it still relates to the youth today in all cultures!
Literally almost shed a tear 😢. Glad you young brothers can appreciate Pac.
When this man spoke you could hear it was from the heart his passion was undeniable and he was wise beyond his years...
This ....and Dear Mama.....all time.favs....Pac went soooo hard on this. He was all about social commentary rap. Pac came from wokeness....Poet for the people ❤❤❤
Pac was able to analyze society & turn it into an art form that we ALL can understand & relate to💯🧐
Well said 💯
Unlike today, we got so-called rappers mumbling gibberish, no irony, and no poetry. just repeating the same verses and chorus only with cool beats.
Love this assessment .
✊✊💯
A lot about Tupac is tragic but I think what saddens me the most is how he was maturing.
He was really coming into himself as a man and a black man as he matured and his music reflected that. He made some ghetto bangers but he also had Dear Mama and Brenda’s got a Baby.
He really could have been a visionary and helped mold the culture but like most black visionaries he was killed before his time. Just like MLK, just like Huey, just like Malcom.
I feel THAT!
he had just spread his wings and started to sore to new heights, when his wings were clipped!
He was special.
And we were all robbed!!!!
And "Unconditional Love" and "Dope Fiens Diner"
Brenda's got a baby was wayyy before dear momma. You got the time lines messed up.
@@MrGrifter123 I just listed Brenda has a Baby second. I said nothing about when it was actually released...
@Ben Franklin Never said he was a saint. I said he was maturing. I know, reading is hard.
Pac was an old soul,cared about communities and the ppl that lived there. He will always be the GOAT.
This song brings me to tears every time. When I was a kid, I didn’t really understand. But now as an adult, Wow. He was really special.
me2. tears. everytime
I heard someone say that Tupac was like a philosopher and music was his way of delivering his teachings, and the way this song was hitting you guys really shows how true that is. Tupac is my absolute favorite. He wasn't just a rapper, he was an academic and it showed in what he was saying in so many of his interviews. He was too good and smart for this world, so he left it too soon. RIP King.
I'm so grateful and happy I grew up in an era where we had unique and powerful artists like 2pac, life was different, the world was a great place
This is why Pac the 🐐.... He was really talking bout something
This is true legend of the rap game
Love you guys I'm from the south and Tupac changed me back in the day. Tupac changed everything
This is one of my favorite reaction videos of yours because it sparked real dialogue. Change comes slowly and isn't linear. But with each new generation, it will keep getting better. Keep pushing for changes and pass your knowledge to the next generation. We'll get there.
As a suburban white kid when this song came out, I remember feeling a certain way. I still feel it ... I imagine this resonates in a completely different way to black people.
Tupac is a poet, he grew up around Panthers and I can just imagine how some of those conversations went.
Some of his poetry was taught in school, I did an essay on his influence and lyrics in school back in the 90s (and im a random white girl from Sydney Australia lol) his reach and message went around the world.
Wow beautiful comment shoutout to you 🙏
I’m from Syd too, grew up with PAC and I was living in Bankstown at the worst of times. He made living through that tough time better. He transcended his genre to the point where my mum listens to his music and can appreciate it. God takes his prophets to teach us lessons. 2Pac may have been a thug but he was also a prophet and what we needed but refused to listen too
2Pac was only 19 writing this powerful song man 😊🥲
It was such a privilege watching you guys reacting to Tupac’s “Changes”. You guys are brilliant …. You should all be proud of yourselves …. Each and every one of you.
This track is legendary. Soo many feels
You know pac sampled this song
@@mariekano9730 his lyrics are his own...
Another old school rapper that doesn't have to constantly curse to get their point across. Freakin love 2pac 💚
Yea Tupac was known to be a loving man who didn’t swear at all. What a joke
@simonlhill-si4sx I'm talking about his music. He was an incredibly talented and intelligent young man, despite the fact of where he came from. Nobody growing up where and how he did could come away from that totally unscathed
It's insane the number of people these days that seem to think life is just black or white, no in between. It's either this OR that, never this AND that, either team this or team that, never, WELL I JUST LIKE THEM ALL, SO CHILL TF OUT!!
Tupac wouldn't have been the amazing artist that he was, had he grown up 'privileged', and that's just a fact.
There's no need to hate on a guy who isn't here to defend himself.
@@Leonforever5 he was a pos and convicted rapist, he tried to get involved with gangs and jumping well known killers and members of the crips, recording disgusting songs like hit ‘em up and the en trying to be a saviour of the black race. Live by the sword die by the sword.

Just notice how it makes you guys discuss good stuff and topics, it's divine and instant motivation. RIP 2Pac.
Very great point. That's power right there
He was droppin so many pearls in that song!
He was so deep and in tune with the struggles and complications life throws at us....
Oh my heart!
The feelz😭
Without a shadow of a doubt Tupac the GOAT
Thank you guys 😊 I love you guys ....I'm 36 and I love listening to you guys figuring it all out!!!!!!!! 2pac was so deep and hit this little white girls heart at 12 . He is amazing but truly I might be a Stan.
People who didn't live during tupac will never officially understand the full experience.
The guy came out with 4-5 albums after he died.
Noone thought he was actually dead because his album Makaveli came out after he died. Makaveli was someone who faked his own death to fool his enemies.
I'm a Turkish Cypriot and British and Tupac is my favourite rapper of all time. He was a lyrical genius and someone with sincerity in his words, he was real and pure heart. I love him and I grew up listeninf to him. We all have hardships in life, whether black, white, Turk, Arab, whatever. You can resonate with Pacs feelings and words. He was a G in his own right. He knew how people felt and he spoke for everyone and he loved his own race and advocated for his people and everyone that was discriminated against. Love Tupac foever ❤
Tupac was the goat! When it comes to pure passion and love for the music, he was unmatched. Look up his work ethic and how he used to handle studio time.
The sample is from Bruce Hornesby's, "The Way It Is". Love how pac used it to fit his narrative. Works well!
Bruce's version was about racism and segregation so
@@mooseylad yep. That's why it works so well.
What's wild is that this track ties The Grateful Dead to Tupac and the crossover between jambands and hip hip. When Brent Midland died Bruce Hornsby took over on the keyboard for several tours.
Tupac wasn’t just a rapper, he was a preacher!! He was speaking truth and waking folks up and he got killed for it. Glad he made his message immortal in his records. RIP to the greatest!
I’ve heard this song a million times, over 20+ years, and it still gives me chills. Most of his songs do. Because he had something to say, most of it profound. You know, Eminem had a very close relationship with Tupac’s mother, Afeni. She said this about Eminem regarding Tupac’s 9th studio album/fifth posthumous album, “loyal to the game”, which Eminem produced:
“This is the ninth album we have released since my son left us. I have worked, struggled called on many people who my son loved while he was here and on the many who loved him back. In these last eight years, I’ve had too many people to count, come to me and say that they are Tupac’s brothers, sisters, comrades, soldiers and friends. Many say that without Tupac, they would not have made it through their hardships-would not have made it to the other side where personal success was awaiting them. They vow that they are ‘here for me’ and ‘here for Tupac’ or for whatever I may need. Yet in the same conversation, they ask if I have $150,000 to send their way, or if there is an unreleased Tupac verse for a single on their new album. Not until now has anyone approached me to give everything they have, and to give it with such integrity.
I have built and now stand strong on the foundation of individuals I believe were brought to me by Tupac so that I am able to receive the gift of generosity given to me by a young man who not only asked for nothing in return for his services, but refused to accept anything I offered. This is the spirit I want my son’s work created in. This is the spirit that we all need to search our souls for to give to each other, unconditionally, without personal agenda for no reason but that it’s the right thing to do.
I believe this young man has given his spirit to Tupac’s project because of what Tupac’s spirit gave to him and to all of us, young, old, male, female, black, white and brown. Take example of what Tupac gave us, take example of what this young man who never had the opportunity to meet Tupac gave to this project. Take example of the people who worked on this and all of Tupac’s projects before, who knew my son, who gave with every ounce of strength and love they have in them and who work through constant reminder of their own loss to stay loyal to their goal. I suggest you stay loyal to your dreams, stay loyal to the struggle Tupac died for, to make this world a better and safer place for our children to grow in… I thank you all for the support you give my son through everything.
I must personally thank Marshall Mathers, for stepping up to the plate, and in Tupac’s words…I thank him for staying loyal to the game…
Peace, Love, & Respect,
Afeni Shakur”
The album was Blasphemous in my opinion. PAC didn’t like Dr Dre. Eminem was blowing up and had the money to pay off his mother. That’s not Tupac rapping on 99% of the album. There’s several fake Tupac’s throughout the album. While I did like some of the songs, they were not Tupac’s work and shouldn’t be credited as such. There were several bootleg Makaveli albums released after his death that more authentic than Loyal 2 the Game.
I was born in 1979, Tupac's music hit my generation the hardest and I still (to this very day) listen to him every day. There is no other rapper in the game today who's lyrics are truer or more prophetical. I can throw on any song of his right now and hear something that he described 20 yrs ago, that is happening today that he predicted. Not saying he could tell the future, but he had an uncanny knack for understanding, not only people, but society as a whole. Life is corrupt, people are prejudiced and full of hate in ALL races, Tupac knew it and wasn't afraid to say it, point it out to us through his music. The day he died; I'll never forget it, rap music lost one of its pioneers, and it has never been the same since. True, there are many talented artists in the world today but none so much as the ones that were born in the late 80's and early 90's (in my opinion that is lol, though I may be a little biased), sadly a lot of them are gone now. We keep them alive by listening to them, paying them the respect they deserve. It makes me happy to see these young men above doing the same.
The beauty and power of Tupac is look how ENERGIZED these guys are when they pause the 2nd verse. That's what Tupac did to people and what his music still does. Pure power!
Tupac was a poet and gave light to so many issues! I loved him and still do! It speaks volumes that everything he wrote then is unfortunately still true today! What a beautiful writer and performer! ❤
Tupac was a lot of things. Rapper, actor, he was into the arts 🎭 whilst in school. His POETRY is what I adore about him. He just had a way with words that was so beautiful & also cut deeply as well. He was so young… however you’d think he’d already lived a lifetime. It’s as if he could tell the future (us) what we needed to do! A true gift from God he was. 💙✌🏼
One of the best rap songs of all time. Today's music can't compare to this.
"Instead of a war on poverty, they gotta war on drugs so the police can bother me." One of the best all time bars ever in a rap song
2pac was wayyyy beyond his time 🕔
This song hits hard even till now. Rest easy 2pac.
Tupac was so far ahead of his time. I was a young white girl bumping this song and so many of his other hits. He was actually saying something and making people of all races open their eyes to the world around us. I agree with Solomon when he said Tupac was too smart to be a thug. He was raised by a very intelligent single mother. Both gone way too soon. Glad yall are listening and paying attention! Love you my baby boys!
Idk where to start when it comes to recommending a 2pac song!! "Ambitionz of a Rida", "Until The End of Time", "If I Die 2nite", "Hellrazor", "So Many Tears" are all legendary tracks to start on!!
No one can or will ever compare to Tupac… NO ONE 🖤🙏🏼
Shocked to learn that 5 educated young black men had yet to give the time to listen to 2pac. He is and always will be an American treasure. Millions heard him, and hopefully man more listened. Be well, fella's.
Yep he was seen & treated as a young black thug by many.... some understandably by his own doing but you can't deny the artistic genius & poetic loving caring soft natured other side to him.
It was tragic & still is that for all he accomplished he was still only 25 😔
Absolutely no way i believe they never heard that song before.
@@jimbobjunior. agreed!
They don’t really listen to anything they just talk throughout the whole thing.
These 5 are so annoying. Other youngsters that have a channel know to shut up and listen, then at the end speak. 🙄If you shut up & listen you guys could learn a thing or two! 😠
This song stands, we are all humans! Turn your palm around! We're all human beings! Love each other take care of each other, protect each other! 2PAC is the realest one to ever do it! Peace and love!
In terms of bars and punchlines Pac wasn't the best but in terms of message, delivery and song making ability he is the goat in my opinion, its been over 25 years since he was killed and his music is still as powerful today as it was when I was growing up... he's the greatest ARTIST, musician in hip hop history. Rest in peace. Literally only 25 when he was killed as well... too young.
You obviously don't listen to enough 2pac. Cause that mad had bars and witty punchlines. The most repetitive thing for people to say that " 2pac wasn't lyrical" or "2pac didn't have bars " lol
@@jarvasedundy1 lol right? Listen to "Holla at me"
@@jarvasedundy1 how wrong you are, I was actually listening to Tupac BEFORE he died, i was young AF listening to Pac, I remember where I was when I found out he died actually. My statement holds true and you should learn to read what other people say better... I didn't say he didn't have bars or wasn't lyrical, I said "in terms of bars and punchlines Pac wasn't the best", which is absolutely correct, we can all name multiple emcees better at that aspect of rapping than Pac. He was a storyteller, a poet and a conscious emcee, not a punchline rapper who "rapped about rapping", but you probably just need to listen to Pac more to understand what I mean.

Tupac = 🐐
Love see young generation showing love to pac and old school
Mad love to these brothers!!!
That song still gives me chills
The most influential & greatest of all time! Years later & still relevant. Y’all should definitely react to more of his songs - Brenda’s Got A Baby, War Stories, Unconditional Love, Better Days, etc..
1 of my favorite songs ever and still feel the same emotions as I did as a teenager listening to this…between changes and dear mama from Tupac these songs have always spoken to my soul and will never grow old to me ❤
Tupac was a brilliant young man. I loved his music and lyrics. RIP Angel
A lot of white people, myself included, can relate so much to Tupac's music. Coming from Eastern Europe, from poverty, from a broken family, Tupac has been my light. I couldn't afford a tattoo at the time so i got 2Pac carved into my flesh. I love you Pac, thank you for everything you did for me, I hope I get to see you one day...
Sorry, but no
shows in the end we all just want to live well
@@andrewmoore1536you’re an embarrassment.
Ha ha that is so gay it’s unreal, Kwrva
what do you know about my life?@@andrewmoore1536
2pac IS A LEGEND HE IS ABOVE ALL MUSIC GENRES HE RISKED HIS LIFE 4 HIS PEOPLE (REALLY ALL PEOPLE)
I'm a white guy from the UK and would love to listen to these tunes with you black men!!!
I love your videos guys, keep up the good work race is just a colour you guys are brilliant together 👍🏻
Fellas, I grew up in an apartment complex that was predominantly black. I wasn’t allowed to listen to anything but country music, but I found my way to 2Pac, Biggie and basically every other “old” song you guys are reacting to.
Seeing y’all react to this (among other songs) is dope. I wish everyone could hear this kind of music and resonate with it. I’m from southeast Texas, right outside of Beaumont and I hear you guys talking about Houston and Louisiana a lot.
Y’all have become my favorite reaction channel. Just wanted to say keep doing what y’all are doing! Much love.
I really enjoyed these videos, Tupac always hits to the soul, loved seeing this reaction
I'm 40 years old and still to this day 2pac slander is fighting words for me
Classic song... WILL NEVER GET OLD!
Im 50 years old now and I loved 2 Pac and Biggie and Nas an all them man if i could go back to the 90s I would GAAAAAAAAAAAAAD DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMM XXXX
This song is timeless! Makes me tear up everytime I hear it.
❤❤❤
Requesting Joey Diaz 1 legged woman story. 45 days In a row and won't stop
They really need to watch that I requested Bill Burr's Philly rant
I would give anything to be able to listen to Tupac for the first time again
Greatest of All Time 🐐💚
The thing I liked about Tupac was the fact that he became a voice for the black community, but also represented people of all races. I remember watching the movie All Eyez on Me which was a very good movie (I think at least). But the way I look at Eminem is that he's a product of Biggie and Tupac. Biggie was known for his flow, Tupac was known for his lyricism and real life issues. Eminem now has both of those, while still killing the game now. But with all these young rappers out here spitting nonsense...Biggie and Pac would be upset at how the rap game has shifted.
This came out when I was a kid. As an old white Aussie its awesome to see young black folks hear this for the first time and realise how incredible 'Pac was.
Wait he was popular in Australia back then ?
@@ammarggghazimggg2919pac was popular anywhere in the world where people speak English and live in poverty.
I'm 38 and grew up on 90s rap and Pac is the GOAT of story telling
Pac is loved worldwide I'm from El Salvador in Central America but grew up L.A. Cali. My grandkids will know who Pac was.
