My family is from LA. My mom is a sweet little church-going lady. She used to volunteer at our church in LA for the youth programs & homeless outreach programs. One day, as a kid, she heard me listening to Tupac. I thought she would get upset with me, but she surprised me. She said she knew him. I was shocked. A little Asian lady who spends all her time at church & stuff, how would she know him? It was because he would go to these youth outreach programs & homeless support programs to help out in LA. She said he started a youth music program where he taught kids DJing, drums & piano. Stuff like this never got publicized but Pac was really about it.
Idk man, maybe I'm just not getting it but this mindset sounds to me like you wanna take, if I come into money you'd wanna take that from me? Why shouldn't I have what I earned? I believe in helping people but I don't think I should be obligated to spread my wealth out to everyone to make everyone equal But that's just me, and my take on it
Facts! If you have money you should be making more than give as much back as you can back. Because what matters is what you put back in the world not what you take away.
@@liquidgoldjewels1846 that doesn't sound very fair to me, imagine if your employer took a cut from your paycheck to give to your coworkers who didn't make as much as you did this pay period due to them not putting in as many hours as you, that would be bullshit
It's been a problem since the advent of money which is a control mechanism produced by the rich at no cost and lent to the poor at interest to keep them on the treadmill their entire life.
This hits home so precisely... Tupak got it. America is more divided than I've ever seen. I hate it and wish we could all get along and help each other. chump has too much hatred.
Agreed. Nobody has what they have because of their own 2 hands. Imagine someone having to make their own food, clothes, medicine, home, tools, etc. by themselves. Even if they can do all those those things the time it takes would be a limit on how much they have. Luxury exists because of everyone else's labor and skill and knowledge coming together to advance the species. Even the human language, which shapes the brain, is a group effort. Every wealthy person has what they have because of group effort and because alot of people go without basic needs met.
I'm 53 now and I remember this video. I think I was the same age also. He truly was extremely intelligent interesting caring loving way beyond his year's thanks to his Momma. ❤
Direct your complaints at Sean "Puffy" Combs. He agreed to pay Keefe D $1M to kill Pac. After Keefe ran the drive by, Puffy gave the $1M to his connect Eric "Von Zip" Martin, who used the money to open a club in Harlem called "Zip Code".
punk would be a good word for him in this interview. I mean that in the subcultural way. Dude does not care, he speaks his mind about the inadequacies and injustice done to marginalized people and the divides between by the rich and poor. He’s got the true punk spirit. May he rest well.
He was raised by Panthers. My cousins were too and their conversation was super deep since like 13 years old. I grew up way faster being around them. Also, being knowledgable was cool back then.
John Doe that was an image, occurring at the commercial height of his life, but not a personal one. More importantly, he himself was not rich, having mo money when coming out of prison and dying broke.
John Doe I see your point.. but it's Ignorance in your words. All what he's wearing does not OR SHOULD NOT detract from the words he's projecting. The message should be more important than the messenger. It's funny you say this because there are Humanitarians with more money than Pac ever had, they would speak the same words, and people would applaud the message or praise that individual more. Why? Because people find it more acceptable coming from such an Individual. Through your words, it shows that many would not reward Pac with the same respect or praise because he's seen as nothing but a good for nothing Thug with Diamonds and gold. There are people whom have said and done WAY worse than this Rapper, yet they have become Leaders of our country; Example: Donald Trump.
John Doe I see the Image of the Messenger matters more than the Message to you. But As I said, I see your point. Would it be better if Pac was wearing a suit and Tie? Probably would.. but that's not who he is. That's not what he stands for... His message is clearly for those who would listen and not judge him harshly because he chooses to preach with a bandanna on his head or Jewels around his neck. Goes to show how Image really does mean Something.. or more specifically, That Image is everything to "YOU People".
I’m afraid it never changes, it was like that before Tupac existed and it’s still like that. Tupac wasn’t ahead of his time, he was just aware and vocal.
And cared about his fellow man, ALL fellow man. All they worried about today is which female has the best sex, who has most expensive car and beefing with somebody all the time. Tupac was a visionary and a rare jewel. It's no wonder he had to get out, you know the powers that be hated his truth!
They still do...but now, when rappers speak their mind, they get called sellouts, liberals or told to stick to entertaining...like when Eminem has something to say and is attacked for it. Society today is way too sensitive for free thought thinkers and speakers like 2Pac and Eminem.
@@Iloveswedes that’s what makes him so brilliant…he didn’t take the reactionary route…by saying “we’ve been a good friend”. He is using The Art Of War. Winning the hearts and minds of his enemy
What did he do for the poor? His net worth before he died was FORTY FREAKIN' MILLION DOLLARS!!!! He's a liar!! All celebs complain about us not giving and they have millions.
@midnitesquirldog1 You know he was dissing Trump. He stated that Trump takes and does not give. He was also explicitly stating that we should help others. He did not say to help people only in the US. Helping should include any country that needs help bc of lack of money or suffering from hunger. Please actually read and listen instead of coming up with conspiracy theories peddling around the media.
@@Judyp77 Net worth does not mean liquidity. He did not have forty million in the bank. Although i am not sure how accurate your statement of $40 million is? What net worth actually means is all the assets he has including homes, cars, records, property, various other items, and including cash minus your debt.
He was both, but that's what made him complicated. He was rowdy towards the end. At 25, he never really had the time to grow and mature like his peers.
@@AnAverageBoss communism too..I remember when Russia had a lottery and gave toliet paper..toliet paper was a luxury and scarce. Communism and socialism are not good..Now 2pac got murdered.did he give all his money away buying houses for his black ppl??should have if he believes in socialism..
Dead physically but alive in our minds, music is still living and will always be living not just Tupac but all of the other singers and rappers who have passed Their music is still living
If he were here today he wouldn't think that way anymore. That's a very immature way to see things. I used to think that way too, as did many of my friends. But then you have families and you grow out of it.... The struggle he is talking about all starts in the home. He didn't have a father. Sons without fathers is the #1 problem in America. Most people are just brainwashed into thinking it's something else.... People all need to stop having children they can't afford as well. Because that just keeps the cycle going.
I walked passed away homeless man one day n didn't have any money. Weeks later I saw him again, but knew this time I could give. My daughter and I eat our dinner n while we were walking back all his things were gone as if he was never there. It felt so strange but also that God truly knew I wanted to help, n I felt tested.
God bless you sister. I have a similar story to you. This guy named Raymond yo I used to always get him pizza or food stay and talk to him after work. One time me and this other woman got him socks from my job and he wasn’t there so I just left the socks and he was like wow I just came back and there were socks there it was like a miracle and I didn’t say it was us but felt happy that he felt good then one day I come back and he’s gone. I’m talking about he stayed by the bridge all the time and it’s like Raymond was never there. Nobody has seen him or knows who he is. I have no idea what happened to him. I wonder if it’s the same thing.
What constitutes living long? In some places the life expectancy is very short. That doesn’t mean everyone who dies young was a good person. So all people over a certain age only lived that long because they “aren’t good”? It’s a poisonous mentality that does no good.
People still read - but I'd say that what you are reading and how you approach this information is important. There's a lot more information today and it's more easily accessible than before, but I'd say that that also means that there's more information that is inaccurate/misleading or information that is just unimportant. Internet, television, radio have certainly helped in the spread and increase of information - they are the printing press(es) of the 20th century. A lot more people can contribute, which means good minds that could not be heard can now be heard, but that also applies to bad minds.
This is why I love this man. He had empathy and compassion. He understood the struggle and saw the hypocrisy. He was a true threat to the establishment.
Asokumaraan Selokumar if you didn’t know i’m not the actua pac my bro, i’m just a big fan of his. That’s all, although sometimes i wish i was him. Just because i’d not get involved in the conflicts that he got involved into.
I know bro. I am already doing some humanitarian work in temple at malaysia. I hope you do too and persuade and reach out our brothers out there who need help and guidance. Let's help them
i disagree, i love pac but at the end of the day if someone has earned or gained wealth they can do whatever the fuck they want with it. They worked hard and they shouldn't be expected to hand out their earnings, as that would just go against their goals for their desire to be wealthy.
I do to I can’t here him talk or rap without crying everytime I hear his voice it’s like he’s speaking to me I love his voice and how real he is he talks so clear and he is so down to earth
Tupac literally died but there's something special many people are not consciously aware of and that's the actuality that he is in a next dimension. Yes, he is gone but in the invisible world he's still living. And it's possible he's still making albums like he did here on earth.
i guess if u r an artist in a country tht redistributed wealth, u might end up expressing yor art on th corner or at free community concert? im nt sure if any one actualy wants tht? from the immigration numbers out of th eastern block and cuba its hard to say thy do
It's relevant because there is nothing new under the sun. It's all the same rhetoric that has been spoken for centuries. What he's speaking on are Biblical principals. If he knows it or not.
This is why Tupac is still revered almost 30 years after his passing. Most rappers today can't even put a coherent sentence together let alone think of someone other than themselves. If he had not died so young, I think he would have transcended past music & movies and done some great things in politics.
world hasn't changed, its got worse!!! disparity between rich and poor is rising exponentially! Quote: “Earth provides enough to satisfy every man's needs, but not every man's greed.”
We will NEVER see a celebrity care about humanity like THIS again. They may act like they do. They may say something controversial. But Tupac stood on business when came to his principles. If he was wrong he would admit it. I wish his life hadn’t been cut short. R.I.P. Pac
Yes. That's it. He tried to keep us all together and make us understand it. Listen at pac man. Everyone he tried to keep us together. He had a plan, but was killed or murdered before he could let people know.
You people are not intelligent talking about Tupac is intelligent. Tupac is not intelligent. He just talk common sense.... flipping houses increase the cost of living. Buying all the products and flip for double the price increases the cost of living. Crime takes money out of the hood because people don't want to create businesses in places where there's a high crime rate-
He wasnt, Cobain was ahead of his time, Tupac was hypocrite all the way, thug really, for that i respect him, for otherwise he was piece of crap, merda
@truckerlawyer Starting fights, spitting on people, threatening to kill people, and raping women is not being "ahead of his time".. Tupac died because he was an idiot... Tupac's life should be a lesson on how not to die. If you do what Tupac did, you will probably get murdered
I mean not really ahead of his time. This has been going for 100 years 😂the whole greedy thing. Even charlie Chaplin talked about it Search it On TH-cam
@@hitman_s1 lol you are an idiot. When ever someone black is saying something real a then you try to justify your hatred to them by stating rumours or claiming nonsense lol. I don't know, between you and Beyonce who is the bigger bitch. I wonder where you get that idea that you can't criticise a black person. Lies you told yourself to justify your hatred to blacks isn't it? Of course if you are going criticise a black person, you don't have to criticise the back person with his/her race, you don't have to put a person with his race down like what most of you guys do. For example instead of simply saying "tell that to Beyonce" only, you had to mention her being balck and grouping us all together. That's stupid because even a fool knows that everyone can be criticised.
The "Korean kids" comment was significant if you understand the context of the tensions between African Americans and Koreans in southern California back then, and the context of tension between African Americans and Asians in the US in general. You can critique Pac he was certainly hip to the class war and stood up for the lower classes
I was surprised he said that. He must have forgotten the teenager Black girl getting murdered by a Korean woman because assumed she was stealing a bottle of juice. The Korean woman only got probation and community service.
It’s crazy because in the 60’s/70’s Black people and Asian people had a mutual respect for each other’s cultures. Which is why pretty much still to this day, those two demographics share neighborhoods all over America.
@Goopy Le Grande It's okay bro utilize your time the best you can. I'm 20 and im just trying to follow my heart and only you can know what that exactly means for you.
Sitting here crying...lost my job six months ago...Masters Degree...2 daughters...just evicted before my bday...NOT LAZY AT ALLLL.....and i have always felt the need to help....even at my current lowest point!! Which is now!!...
He had a good heart you can tell he really cared about people struggling, he was so ahead of his time talking about social inegalities, people being super rich while others can't offered food !
The fact that this clip is 30 years old and his speech can still be applied to todays society just shows how ahead of his time Pac really was and how little did we evolve. PS: I didn't expect to get so many comments and likes. A lot of people are mentioning the "ahead of his time" thing I said. I know this has been a thing for years and years, but I meant as in like a famous personality, you would be surprised how many people back in that decade and before were so alienated to these toughts. And I also meant by the fact that Pac was a young man in this clip, he was 21, at 21 he had more wisdom than majoity of adults, and even adults from today, that's what I was trying to say, but I appreciate the replies.
That's not what being ahead of his time means. If he was ahead of his time he would have some ideas that become relevant in the future. Not only have all of what he has said been done millions of times in the past, but the issue he was addressing was in the presence during that interview. So he wasn't being ahead of his time. He was talking about problems that has simply outlasted him.
That’s because we had Tupac. A voice of reason and reality that the white youth were listening to. He was a revolutionary thinker and really opened lots of minds.
@CarsandGunns66, true statement. The world was in a much better place. Can't remember it ever being this bad. It seems to be a lot of chaos everywhere.
@@carolhumphrey9097 so true, at the time, there was an election, & the candidates were cordial to each other, & weren't calling each other childish names, we could have differing opinions without people being screamed at or acts of violence visited upon them, even if you didn't like the President, at least he was a dignified & classy person, not a joke or embarrassment. It was so much better back then. 😊
@@MrJPEzra He was like the John Lennon of Hip Hop, he was articulate & spoke from the heart, he comes from legendary stock, his family were '60s revolutionaries who changed the world. A voice of a generation. 😐
Yes....... Crazy how he spoke so much truth over 20years ago and things still haven't changed. I genuinely believe the word would be a different place if he was still alive

Sultan Abdulhameed II true USA is corrupt, but most nations aren’t any better maybe in just recent history since America is like the newest big power so we notice it more but there’s not one country on this planet that hasn’t been built by thefts, killings, greed, etc.
I honestly have never seen an interview with Tupac, and damn he seems awesome. I can see why people liked him so much 2:03 I say this all the damn time Welp I guess I'm listening to all his music tomorrow
Mark Mason induno about that but in trump defence he employ more people than all these rappers. Look at tupacs employer back them. Even tupac it's easy to talk all philosophical and virtue signalling when you don't struggle. Boy when to ballet school
@Space Alien fool like tupac was getting at, greed is not having abunch of stuff and money, greed is having abunch of stuff and money and not helping people who cant survive or live. He earned that jewelry, but people who are struggling deserve some help. Also tupac has given to many communities and youth and people.
This boy was not murdered by a normal person, this guy is still relevant even today, most people will reach 100 years and still never will they come close to how intelligent he was.
Definitely. I remember an interview of him (I think it was the 1996 Vibe interview) when the journalist asked him where he sees himself in 20 years. He replied that if he lived 20 more years then he'd see himself changing the world. And I definitely believed that. Sadly the world wasn't ready for someone like Pac back then, and considering how things go nowadays it seems it's still not ready...
I know for a fact it would be different... 🧘🏾♀️ TuPac is at the top of my list....🎼🎶🎵 I can't listen to this new rap music.... 😪😢 It messes with my vibe 🧘🏽🧘🏾♀️🧘🏾♂️🙇🏾🙇🏾♀️🙇🏾♂️
How is he ahead of his time if theres a lot of people who thought like this even before him and right now tooo....that doesnt make sense....i mean his way of thinking is influenced on what justice should be but i dont see how its ahead of its time
This made me cry, cause everything he saying is equivalent to today's society. He was a wise man. & The change starts with us, like he said it IS enough money for all of us. Need to give back and help each other get out the struggle 💯💯 #RIPPAC

@@sKid-zy1ss At 17 Pac was made chairman of young black activists Black Panthers...At 17? What exactly were u doing at 17?He sued cops and won, he was putting bloods and crips together.. I can go on and on.. Maybe you should do your research if thats all you think tupac was about.. Start with John Potash's interview on Pac..
"If they earned it, I think that's good, I think that they deserve it. But even if you earned it you still owe." I LOVE that point he made and will definitely remember it. You don't need to be indebted to fulfill your moral obligations, it's your duty as a human.
@Shin Shaman u are the type he is talking about. Having billions, having hundred rooms. And people have no shelter, no food to eat. And u can sleep all day without any feelings. The heart of men.
cee cee nothing your saying is correct they don’t sentence black people longer for the same crime the only time that happens is when the black person is a repeat offender.
@@MerKuFirst she didnt say longer. She said long. Fuck do yall forget how to read ? Yall misread or misheard shit and they blame on the person who said shit that you misinterpreted and didn't receive correctly. It's the listeners fault but they still blame the speaker. How fuckin backwards is that if not completely?
For real have all of these trash rappers talking about drugs abuseing women no message just trash lyrics and trash beats the 90s generation was the best generation of rap ever you cant even call the crap now a days rap
Now u got all these rainbow hair snitches that are making rap turn into some mumbling garbage that sounds repeatative and sounds like an intoxicated slur
he was just repeating what has been said since people with power started dominating people without it. We live in a world where the winner takes all, and leaves nothing behind for the rest of us.
Pac was really talking from his heart here, wonder why they banned this interview only to bring it back now? He was and is still one of the smartest rappers who made sense! Smarter than most of these politicians even.. And he was just 22!
There's many smart rappers. That's how and why rap got created. Don't be fooled. "They" don't want you to listen to them that's why they don't play them on the radio.
@AJ I agree that rap has become simple. I just meant to say that rap had a message before and was conscious - Tupac is not by any means an isolated case, just a popular one. So, I just don't think that Tupac and Kendrick Lamar are the only smart ones or the greatest. Maybe the young ones aren't smart or even lyrical but there have been many. (Lupe Fiasco was recent but the industry was not interested in a conscious rapper)
@@RockSmithStudio He'd do anything to make money. Promote violence in the community and oppose violence in the community on the same album. Promote drug dealing, drug use, domestic violence, gang activity and all the bullshit that drags us down, then he turns around and gives one little interview, makes one little song and we glorify his little dumb ass. He was a fraud. Black people looking up to people like Tupac drags us all down.
Yeh and he worked for that wealth, he went out there and earned it on the same level playing field as everybody else in his position. Theres a whole lotta difference in donating what you earned and donating what you won or was gifted.
imagine having a heart like this and being surrounded by the hollywood elite/culture. a little piece of me really hopes he did run away, but I know how darkness seeks to stomp out the light because they feel threatened. wherever he is, he was taken from us too soon. he had incredible plans for this world.
I think a lot of comments on here miss the mark - he wasn’t ahead of his time, there’s been big disparity between rich and poor for thousands of years. But he was COURAGEOUS, strong and spoke from a place of true love for ppl to speak out about it. It doesn’t take a brilliant person to see the disparity and problems, it takes a courageous person to speak out about it. Courage in the face of fear, backlash, ‘cancellation’ etc… Strong love and belief can make us courageous enough to do and say the things others won’t. Peace
He’s not really saying something other people don’t say here, either - this is standard left-wing social critique - but he’s expressing it in a particularly fiery, charismatic and personal way, which is his gift as a poet.
@@gatotsu2501Yeah. I think that most people believe in the social ideal of lifting people out of poverty. Unfortunately, the leftist approach has only created more of it. I like the MAGA approach of creating opportunity for poor people to better their situation. Some even make themselves rich! I don’t trust our government to “redistribute” wealth.

punk would be a good word for him in this interview. I mean that in the subcultural way. Dude does not care, he speaks his mind about the inadequacies and injustice done to marginalized people and the divides between by the rich and poor. He’s got the true punk spirit. May he rest well.

He was raised by Panthers. My cousins were too and their conversation was super deep since like 13 years old. I grew up way faster being around them. Also, being knowledgable was cool back then.
I had those beliefs when I was 21 too. Why is it so special because Tupac said it?
Dude was right, still is.
Automatic, still is
The dude was charismatic as hell. And his heart was in the right place.

John Doe that was an image, occurring at the commercial height of his life, but not a personal one. More importantly, he himself was not rich, having mo money when coming out of prison and dying broke.

I see your point.. but it's Ignorance in your words. All what he's wearing does not OR SHOULD NOT detract from the words he's projecting. The message should be more important than the messenger.
It's funny you say this because there are Humanitarians with more money than Pac ever had, they would speak the same words, and people would applaud the message or praise that individual more. Why? Because people find it more acceptable coming from such an Individual. Through your words, it shows that many would not reward Pac with the same respect or praise because he's seen as nothing but a good for nothing Thug with Diamonds and gold.
There are people whom have said and done WAY worse than this Rapper, yet they have become Leaders of our country; Example: Donald Trump.
John Doe
I see the Image of the Messenger matters more than the Message to you.
But As I said, I see your point. Would it be better if Pac was wearing a suit and Tie? Probably would.. but that's not who he is. That's not what he stands for... His message is clearly for those who would listen and not judge him harshly because he chooses to preach with a bandanna on his head or Jewels around his neck.
Goes to show how Image really does mean Something.. or more specifically, That Image is everything to "YOU People".
The fact that YT recommends me this now is crazy
Tupac was wise beyond his years. I wonder how far he would've gotten 😢
Probably just like the other OGs, still around, make a track every now and then, but the vast majority of young ppl not interested.

He did not say to help people only in the US. Helping should include any country that needs help bc of lack of money or suffering from hunger. Please actually read and listen instead of coming up with conspiracy theories peddling around the media.
@@Judyp77 Net worth does not mean liquidity. He did not have forty million in the bank. Although i am not sure how accurate your statement of $40 million is? What net worth actually means is all the assets he has including homes, cars, records, property, various other items, and including cash minus your debt.
He had a kind soul. He wasn't some stupid thug. He was a sensitive and spiritual poet. Bless him. Rest on peace love.
He was both. He had thug life tattoo. Pac would even admit this.
He clearly had gang life

The wisdom for his age was unique. Dude was 21 during this interview. Imagine if he would be still alive today.
That's why he is not here today.😢
I was 21 too…. I came in the world 11 days after him…. I miss him so I’m watching interviews❤
If he were here today he wouldn't think that way anymore. That's a very immature way to see things. I used to think that way too, as did many of my friends. But then you have families and you grow out of it.... The struggle he is talking about all starts in the home. He didn't have a father. Sons without fathers is the #1 problem in America. Most people are just brainwashed into thinking it's something else.... People all need to stop having children they can't afford as well. Because that just keeps the cycle going.
That's why he not here today

Remember he's only about 22 23 years old with this passion and knowledge, plus no internet. When you had to read
He was 20, this was March 1992.
People still read - but I'd say that what you are reading and how you approach this information is important.
There's a lot more information today and it's more easily accessible than before, but I'd say that that also means that there's more information that is inaccurate/misleading or information that is just unimportant.
Internet, television, radio have certainly helped in the spread and increase of information - they are the printing press(es) of the 20th century.

I agree pac was very nice and he cared so much for people esp homeless!!!
The fact that this clip is 30 years old and his speech can still be applied to todays society just shows how ahead of his time Pac really was and how little did we evolve.
PS: I didn't expect to get so many comments and likes. A lot of people are mentioning the "ahead of his time" thing I said. I know this has been a thing for years and years, but I meant as in like a famous personality, you would be surprised how many people back in that decade and before were so alienated to these toughts. And I also meant by the fact that Pac was a young man in this clip, he was 21, at 21 he had more wisdom than majoity of adults, and even adults from today, that's what I was trying to say, but I appreciate the replies.
30 years?? that's nothing.. Jesus said in John 12:8 "You will always have the poor among you, but you will not always have me.”

That's not what being ahead of his time means. If he was ahead of his time he would have some ideas that become relevant in the future. Not only have all of what he has said been done millions of times in the past, but the issue he was addressing was in the presence during that interview. So he wasn't being ahead of his time. He was talking about problems that has simply outlasted him.

So mlk, nm, al, and ALOT of other figures in history. So glad we could had one closer to this generation, wish he could’ve stayed with us longer
RIP
This made me cry, cause everything he saying is equivalent to today's society. He was a wise man. & The change starts with us, like he said it IS enough money for all of us. Need to give back and help each other get out the struggle 💯💯 #RIPPAC
Debbie Tesfaye

Debbie Tesfaye It wasn't to long ago tho..
Doing a Vlog in 92......wayyy ahead of his time.
I think he would've been at the top of the game, even now.
I'm a 42 white Male and I love the messages that 2 pac puts out, in his raps and interviews. 100 facts!
@Jamie Mahony same reason I respect your opinion to be confused. Thanks for sharing
@Jamie Mahony XD hahahhahahahhahahhahhaha awsome
Jamie Mahony cause he wants to be transgender to and a frog
I'm a pine cone and according to prime minister Trudeau you must refer to me as one.
@@workaholicmbs lol lol lol
21 with no college degree and here he is teaching more about life than professors
That's sad
He wanted to go to college but he was dead broke he said ut in another interview
@vaas underrated statement 🔥💯💯 love your comment Bro
Long live king, god Shakur💯🙏
Jesus, I just thought of this.. can u just imagine if he did had have the opportunity to get a degree. This man didn't need a degree hes is and always will be Incomparable.
It’s not a professor’s job to teach about life. It’s their job to teach their respective subject. People watch too many movies
I could listen to Pac talk ALL DAY..he was so influential...its crazy to be that wise and he was so young...such a humble soul...
www.youtube.com/@NDUSTRYHOAX
My dad talks exactly like he does.. they have fast similar brains n circumstances.. I don’t want the messages that he says to get lost.. ima start recording
He was a COMMUNIST!!!
there are 16 year olds who believe exactly the same thing
th-cam.com/video/YhluAbozvT4/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
He gave a one sentence assessment on 45 that is timeless today and no one listened.
People underestimate him people think he’s just another hip hop gangstar with chains on he was a very smart man
Literally nobody thinks that...lol everybody already knows this dude was woke
This doesn't prove he's a smart man, it proves he doesn't study economics and doesn't realize why things are the way they are.
Richie LaVeau you might think it strange coming from a metalhead. We know music. He was different all the greats are or were. His competition saw it too
Richie LaVeau Gets shot for beating up a real gangster .... yea he was a real genius
@@sKid-zy1ss At 17 Pac was made chairman of young black activists Black Panthers...At 17? What exactly were u doing at 17?He sued cops and won, he was putting bloods and crips together.. I can go on and on.. Maybe you should do your research if thats all you think tupac was about.. Start with John Potash's interview on Pac..
And all of these issues he speaks about are still so prevalent
No shit
Sultan Abdulhameed II yup
"If they earned it, I think that's good, I think that they deserve it. But even if you earned it you still owe." I LOVE that point he made and will definitely remember it. You don't need to be indebted to fulfill your moral obligations, it's your duty as a human.
Yes...indeed!!!
Absolutely that’s true indeed. He made a very good point & you did also.
He was so whitty and sharp. Interviewer thought he wouldn't have an answer
@Shin Shaman that’s true if you don’t want a good reputation
@Shin Shaman u are the type he is talking about. Having billions, having hundred rooms. And people have no shelter, no food to eat. And u can sleep all day without any feelings. The heart of men.
My guy!!! Mercy. Take me back . Love me some Tupac....just gone too soon. Brilliant guy for sure. 😢❤😢
"Even if you earned it, you still owe". We all need to remember this.
@Jamie Mahony Actually, I volunteer at a homeless shelter.
@Jamie Mahony indeed
Facts bro!
Nah
Linda Hayhurst i dont owe you jack shit. Nobody owes you anything. The world owes you nothing.
Whoever killed this man did a great disservice to the entire humanity.
He didnt even realize that I'm sure kinda like the assassin of John Lenon
@Lil Toker 100%
@Hermes Trismegistus lil toker is actually right. I liked John Lennon too, but dude was a piece of shit to his family
All the : Jesse Jackson and the rest of it are to be blamed for it my friend...
@@ericchevry5158 They get rid of mass awakening star idols
Pac wasn't a rapper he was a different kind of poet. Such a genius.
Whats the difference between rap and different poetry tho?
Yeah he wasint just a person he was a racist
Amen!
cee cee nothing your saying is correct they don’t sentence black people longer for the same crime the only time that happens is when the black person is a repeat offender.
@@MerKuFirst she didnt say longer. She said long. Fuck do yall forget how to read ? Yall misread or misheard shit and they blame on the person who said shit that you misinterpreted and didn't receive correctly. It's the listeners fault but they still blame the speaker. How fuckin backwards is that if not completely?
the song changes is one of the most realist songs he made that still gives me goosebumps when i listen to it.
Tupac was 21 in this interview. Look at the rapper's that are 21 now a days. 🤦♂️
lol ikr
For real have all of these trash rappers talking about drugs abuseing women no message just trash lyrics and trash beats the 90s generation was the best generation of rap ever you cant even call the crap now a days rap
Huggie Bear Kupkake I don’t agree with the trash beats you really think the beats are trash🤦🏽♂️
American culture has gotten worse all the way around. Its sad
Now u got all these rainbow hair snitches that are making rap turn into some mumbling garbage that sounds repeatative and sounds like an intoxicated slur
He was so damn wise!!! Every word he said is so on point.
Peeped ya page..and love ya comment..I'm going to sub..please check my pod out mud podcast
@@heatspitta I appreciate the sub. I'll sub back and check you out for sure!
fine too
Not every word...but overall he was on point and had a great messege. Even if you earn you dont owe money, but maybe intelligence
he was just repeating what has been said since people with power started dominating people without it. We live in a world where the winner takes all, and leaves nothing behind for the rest of us.
Pac was really talking from his heart here, wonder why they banned this interview only to bring it back now? He was and is still one of the smartest rappers who made sense! Smarter than most of these politicians even.. And he was just 22!
There's many smart rappers. That's how and why rap got created. Don't be fooled. "They" don't want you to listen to them that's why they don't play them on the radio.
They banned it because millionaires and billionaires own MTV. They bring it back now to look like giving back is part of their brand.
MTV isn't even worth it anymore anyway. It was awesome back then but now? They don't deserve any attention.
@AJ I agree that rap has become simple. I just meant to say that rap had a message before and was conscious - Tupac is not by any means an isolated case, just a popular one. So, I just don't think that Tupac and Kendrick Lamar are the only smart ones or the greatest. Maybe the young ones aren't smart or even lyrical but there have been many. (Lupe Fiasco was recent but the industry was not interested in a conscious rapper)
Politicians don't get shot outside of casinos in Rap beefs....
This man was handsome, smart and beyond talented.
Jane Doe I agree 100 percent
its crazy how women never told 2Pac he was handsome, smart & talented until he got rich th-cam.com/video/hC6jyc9reW0/w-d-xo.html
he is right capitalism is cruel and dont make sense. like indian caste system. super poor and and super rich live close to each other like its normal.
Don’t forget how young he was
No wonder he was also gay
It bugs me out how many Tupac wannabes love to mimic his thuggish ways, but run far from his Revolutionary side smh
Maaannnn. 😵. They b killing me. MF got no heart .
The thug shit only existed in his lyrics. That’s it. It was an image.
That latter part is why we love Tupac. He was ahead of his time
@@RockSmithStudio very true. He was way ahead
@@RockSmithStudio He'd do anything to make money. Promote violence in the community and oppose violence in the community on the same album.
Promote drug dealing, drug use, domestic violence, gang activity and all the bullshit that drags us down, then he turns around and gives one little interview, makes one little song and we glorify his little dumb ass.
He was a fraud. Black people looking up to people like Tupac drags us all down.
Tupac had a whole lot what a lot of rich people don't, and that was compassion, fairness and a good soul.
RIP TUPAC🙏❤️🇬🇧
/watch?v=D02qHj1KPnw&list=PLZ1gIRLrZoVa8V-HdYZ9ikg7rEOaloZr4
Tupac exposed them good.
Yeh and he worked for that wealth, he went out there and earned it on the same level playing field as everybody else in his position. Theres a whole lotta difference in donating what you earned and donating what you won or was gifted.
Perry Norman Ummm, you do realize that a good portion of rich people nowadays are BORN into their wealth?
British flag? Lmao
RIP Pac 💜
imagine having a heart like this and being surrounded by the hollywood elite/culture. a little piece of me really hopes he did run away, but I know how darkness seeks to stomp out the light because they feel threatened. wherever he is, he was taken from us too soon. he had incredible plans for this world.
I think a lot of comments on here miss the mark - he wasn’t ahead of his time, there’s been big disparity between rich and poor for thousands of years. But he was COURAGEOUS, strong and spoke from a place of true love for ppl to speak out about it. It doesn’t take a brilliant person to see the disparity and problems, it takes a courageous person to speak out about it. Courage in the face of fear, backlash, ‘cancellation’ etc… Strong love and belief can make us courageous enough to do and say the things others won’t. Peace
He’s not really saying something other people don’t say here, either - this is standard left-wing social critique - but he’s expressing it in a particularly fiery, charismatic and personal way, which is his gift as a poet.
@@gatotsu2501Yeah. I think that most people believe in the social ideal of lifting people out of poverty. Unfortunately, the leftist approach has only created more of it. I like the MAGA approach of creating opportunity for poor people to better their situation. Some even make themselves rich! I don’t trust our government to “redistribute” wealth.
@@gatotsu2501 ,whats u got to separated us with your right and left bs .what part of him saying is not truth .?
America got money for israhell and Ukraine yearly in the billions and we out here looking for hand outs .smFh
Amen to that. I yell truth so loud there is no-one left around me. I have no fear but its damn lonely out here!!! Plenty see the truth but so few are willing to call it. Beeaks my heart a lot ..but my spirit leads. F*** it... no going back now. Gotta finish what I started! 😁😂
He was not smart lol. He was knowledgeable but clearly being this outspoken is what got him killed
