No concept of the stress of employing thousands of people or how them having well paid jobs creates stability and better neighbourhods..and I loved Tupac 💕..but he had no clue about solutions

sorry pac its trillions now

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.
Thank you for sharing❤
Ty 4 this❤
I definitely appreciate you for sharing that message stuff like this needs to be heard more often
I mean, dude was a communist, so ofc he was helping the disinfranchised
Thank you for sharing 🤍
2024. Won't ever get old. Really wish he never passed.
😢oh pac!!! I miss him
@@Michelle-day That's not how it works. He still died. You can't die and also never have died.
he lives forever! too big of a mind to be forgotten.
His words and wisdom still live on.
@@americandingo1109the one in front of the gun lives forever
I miss the days when rappers actually had something to say
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!
Tupac: reality
Rap 2020: Skrrr
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.
They still out there...Killer Mike is very enlightened
Monty Simms No one has things to say like he did.
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
“They got money for wars but can’t feed the poor” only real ones know dis line
Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaxs 💯
Keep ya head up💯💯
I know you fed up but please you got to keep ya head up
“Said there aint no hope for the youth and the truth is there aint no hope for the future”
I think if a person can find this video then they gotta know this line 😂
'they got money for wars but cant feed the poor'
englewood price they kill the poor, its easier to get done with poverty that way
When it rains is pours they got money for wars but no money to feed the poor
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".
"but even if you earned it you still owe." That is profound.
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.
Dude was a card carrying communist, not to shocking to hear him make sense
@@Mo-uk5uhthat is true no one does just themselves it's always come from other people creating things for them
"[Excessive] Wealth was never collected except through greed or forbidden acts."
-Imam Ali
Absolutely true.
Money is a finite resource. For a few people to have a million, a million people can’t have one.
This system makes us into slaves.
I’m not a huge hip hop fan, but I respect Tupac as a person and philosopher. Even if you don’t dig his music, it was interesting to hear him out on social topics.
same here, I don't really like much of his music discography because his rapping style is not suitable much with my taste, but I really love him as a good person with huge knowledge and care free.
this man could've changed the world, not just for black people, but for everyone. whoever took him away, knew the power he had in his words.
You said it with absolute truth and beauty. I'm white, but now as an adult I realize every single wealthy white person, whether politicians or businessmen were the crucial reasons that Black, Hispanic, and other non white communities are still being decemated.
In my opinion, it's simple: I have never seen the inclusiveness and unconditional love and support that non white families and communities have for one another in my white upbringing.
I see communities where the benefit of the doubt was always given, and any opportunity to teach a compassionate lesson so everyone learns and grows was usually always taken.
These non white communities are an absolute threat to the white agenda. Because the power of money is only gonna go so far.
But the love, support and empowerment of families, neighbors and communities that not only take care of one another and don't pick and choose garners unity.
Unity that sees no color, no religion, no identity except human Spirit. Unity brings the majority together...it helps us realize we are ALL ONE.
If the majority of us had actually woken up to this, the billionaire grease pigs, the politicians and law enforcement would not EVER be able to control the masses ever again.
The white leaders want all of us to continue thinking it's "us against them."
When that couldn't be farther from the Truth. Rest in Peace, Tupac. And to every single Mama and Sister I had who actually did raise me up to the Light, because of your unconditional love, I am here and thriving today. Namaste to you, for such a beautiful statement and to all who take the time to read this!! ❤️🫶🌠
I seriously think that if he was still with us, he could have run for president.
Puff Daddy took him away
He already did change the world 💯
people only listen to the thug version of pac
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
Tupac WAS SO FREAKING SMART! I hate when dumb ass rappers compare themselves to him
*cough Kanye cough*
LOL..very true
+Ms. Jackalope .j. Johnstone Kanye has never called him self like tupac
+MrKnowledge407 yea man he was way ahead of his time. thats what got him killed. the realness. thats why "truth hurts" is a saying!!
+MrKnowledge407 lil wayne
Truly. This is my first time hearing any comments from Tupac. Today years old and now giving respect to his memory!
He's 21!!! In this interview.. When I was 21, I was a punk and didn't even half the brain to say that.. R.I.P Pac
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.
@@ninanando 🤘righteous words
Word 👌🏻
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?
This dude spoke with confidence. I never heard an um or uh . His mind was clear is my point
In the first 3 seconds he says uhm but okay
4REAL
1:51
Woppler lol
Woppler Doesn’t count he said “Oh i made a mistake” not “Uhm I made a mistake”.
Watching Tupac saying all these things is so touching. We were robbed of a precious gem 💔
For sure
and it’s still relevant today!
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".
I wish we could put some respect on his name and have people listen to what he's saying and make changes this is pure facts
@@TommySanders-tp3ob true that
Tupac could’ve changed the world if he was still here. He was talented, highly intelligent, compassionate, genuine and humble. The world lost a legendary icon. We love and miss you! Rest easy, Tupac🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻✝️
He was like 21 years old in this video. 21 year old rappers now can’t even articulate themselves like this, they’re all drug heads 🤦🏻♂️
This gen's artists are a literal joke
Lil Tutty he said what he said bitch
You only see part of the picture and forget about the camera . Research things before saying what ever satisfy your mind
@@GamingPIPI Sad but TRUE!
Jochanan Van Holst it’s all fun and games until they seize out and die at age 21. Pac got murdered, he didn’t do it to himself like contemporary rappers. Travis Scott is to Tupac as Twisted Sister is to The Beatles.
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.
@@Freethinker_746perhaps he was smart enough to realize that one individual's bad action shouldn't be held against a group that didn't commit it.
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.
@@pattyofurniture👏👏👏👏👏
@@Freethinker_746 Im okay with her only getting probation...There should've been some street justice!
Pac was about 21 or 22 when he said this, and to this day he’s still smarter then 99% of America.
Yeah he just had made 21 love pac

You know the government was happy after when we lost him. What a tragedy. I miss him ❤
Exactly because they are evil and don't care about the poor sad world!!!
The US government didn't care.
Tupac was organising politically like his parents had previously.
@@GazB85 He was politically radical like the Black Panthers, and that’s why he’s awesome, only learned he was so based recently, sad he’s gone
He was an actor. He was a soft feminine gay young actor who was hired by the rich lobbyists of the corporate prison system to play the role of a gangster rapper and promote violence as cool to black youth. Same lobbyist at the exact same time were in washington DC hiring Biden to push his crime bill to imprison the exact same black youth.
“Look at me, I don’t have that mega money. But I feel guilty walking by somebody.” Pac was the realest. No rapper today would say something like that.
You need money/funds to move certain ways that is the spirit. Having money isn't bad.
I got blown away by the humanitarian award line...
2pac is the most intelligent rapper in the world
What are you talking about? Tupac was $5 mil. in debt because of his lavish spending habits...
How much a dollar cost - Kendrick Lamar
They killed him now wanna bring him back when it helps their pockets smh
Noone killed him his own people killed him Orlando Anderson killed him he be alive if it wasn't for a petty gangster had nothing to do with the government he jumped a man and that man killed him later
Orlando Anderson wasn't the shooter dude the police did that
@@sammroueh5942 you're smoking rocks lmao do your research before you talk about some shit.
They are only following what benefits them.

@@effiechar5902 your on fucking crack. How did the cops kill him and why would they?
Pac would've HATED the Kardashians
Kita Lorraine amen...
Haha they wouldn't even exist 😂
Kita Lorraine I hate them now...
Kendall calling him her spirit animal tho ..smh
***** yeah I can see him do that but he would've treated her like any other hoe and kim would've dated pac for the fame and recognition kim kardashian and tupac Shakur whaaat that wouldve been a household name for her kim kardashian Shakur lol she would've loved that screw Reggie Bush
The world lost a gem the day this legend was taken from us. He cuts through all the bullshit and sees the truth in the world. Wise beyond his years, we could really use him today. All we can do is learn from what he left us.
Rest in power king.
Missing him
Pac was way ahead of his time for real RIP🕊
Pac was brilliant and way ahead of his time. RIP Pac!
Socialists/Marxists/Communists have been using the same lines and talking points for well over a century. So, sorry, he's not the first one to say it or think of it.
@@rockhaze 🤡
He's alive every time we click play
Very true he influences me today, if the people in charge of the world only cared.
Yes♥️
That’s true
Somebody also tryna getting paid off his name each click. Sad fact
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
“Even if you earned it, you still owe.” That’s solid. I’m taking that with me.
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
@haskamoosic9371 ya it's called Communism. The Panthers followed it too
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
@@SRKStar okay so lead by example, after you pay rent this month, give whatever money you have leftover away to the needy
Man has knowledge beyond his years. RIP Pac
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
Not really
Remember him bragging about fukn Biggies wife?
🤦
He was a racist pos. Go read his lyrics.
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.
Even when he speaks, he still sounds like he's rapping.
lol
He got that malcolm x effect. I swear when I listen to malcolm he was rapping.
Plot twist: he raps how he speaks

*Tupac Shakur*
Andrewmurray
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.
@@Judyp77 the government is responsible for its citizens that vote for it, 2 pac was not responsible for that.
@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.
Tupac was ahead of his time!!! Educated, talented, thoughtful, philosophical, poetic, and passionate! GIVING BACK, UPLIFTING - Tupac RIP
💔
Way ahead!!….here’s Trump pushing people out of their homes to build golf courses for his many failed businesses!!!😢😢😢
Sure he was bright emotional aware and passionate but that was purely communist speak something I won't condone
I'm sorry but he's not the first one to ever have those ideas. Socialist/Marxist/Communist have been saying those talking point for a very long time.
Oh wait, it's people like you... you think history didn't exist before the 1990s and that it took a black male rapper to get the idea out, like he came up with it... lol my god....
@@coolcat3452 what a mega dumb comment. Any documents to support your dumb agenda?
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

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.

He wasnt just murdered...he was Assasinated ....He was too smart for the people around him and he was gettin bigger than rap,acting .....people dont like that ...RIP ..my all time favorite rapper
He’s not smart he’s talking like a communist give those who don’t earn a mother fking thing and take it away from those who do I’m glad he’s ant food and singing for satan now
He was acting gangster and got killed
He got a little cocky in an environment that wasn't safe for him to be like that. He wasn't in his own hood. he was on the Vegas strip. And messing with people he knew were dangerous. And then he decided to trust Suge Knight with his life which was not smart.
“We’ve been a good friend”….he was so deep and intelligent for such a young guy
Beyond a friend, we were slaves....and they took everything from us, including our own children.
@@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

So true, Could listen to him for Hours. He was not only a Talented Rapper, he also was a very smart person. 2Pac 👑
And that is why i call him the best rapper of all time ..not because of lyrics but the person.
Tupac was wise beyond his years! ❤ It’s so sad that he died so young. I’m glad this video is still circling the feeds for people to watch. He’s still preaching and teaching.
😢
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
He was too smart.... Too smart for humanity....
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
This is how Kanye thinks he sounds when he rants.

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.
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.

He was a fraud. Black people looking up to people like Tupac drags us all down.
That moment when 1992 seemed like a brighter future than 2019
Exactly, so glad I lived back then. 😐
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. 😐
ITS FUNNY HOW AT THE TIME THIS INTERVIEW WAS BANNED SMH
Didn't know that
young city yep!
Imagine if a lot of black kids knew Ice Cube was in Phoenix Arizona getting a college education while writing gangster rap about hood life? Love of money is the root of all evil!

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.
My son loves Tupac and I understand why. He was a good person.
Maureen Wagg What do you mean he was good he's still showed told us how to be humble and independent ect just word it like this PAC was and still is the most humble a man/woman could be just being real
Baylee Pamatangi Rappers have reputations. Some bad and some good. I took the time to get to know the person my son listens to. That is part of understanding each other. I hear things being played on the stereo and then I hear this. As a Mom, you do not have time to keep up with fads and fashion like when we were kids. He impressed me.

@@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.

Never thought that I would miss a person so much ...... without even knowing him personally
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.

He's good looking too.
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.
I keep saying it, I fully believe it would be "Welcome the President of the United States of America, Tupac Amaru Shakur" I swear.
@@datapperyou don’t understand Tupac if you think he would be the president,more likely a spiritual leader of some sort a truely unique character
@@boxinglegend3060yes, because you need to be extremely corrupt to become president.
But instead we get people like Kanye west as the face of hip hop culture 😢.
@datapper yep he definitely would of been president
People like pac are the reason to fight, they have a short time in this world but they are an inspiration of change. Dark miss guided people ended him because the inspiration he held would break people free of the control today and their power would dissolve. Decent people is what they truly fear.
He was so intelligent. Wise Beyond his years

The Bad Boy fuckers destroyed him
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.”
Marx wrote kapital in the 1800s, this shits been going on for a long ass time. The struggle will continue til everyone is free.
An evolution overdue.
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.
Powers that be don't want Hip Hop to have a social message.
"They hated me when i was here and started loving me when i was gone."

Yessss it was amazing to hear him speak.
He’s more critical
BPP KId! :-)
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.
And that’s why they had him killed
Because he came from the struggle. Pac was real.
Big came from the struggle. Nas came from the struggle. Tupac came from Julliard.

FACTS 💯🏆💯
Tupac was the son of a black panther and grew up with a mother who was involved in a radical struggle to try to build a new and better world. It is said that if his rap career didn't take off that he was planning to become the chairman of the New Black Panther Party.
It’s funny how people say they’re “Woke” nowadays and they’re more sleep than Snorlax. Tupac was truly Woke!
Yeah people are fake woke as fuck. Want to help everyone else except our poor disenfranchised citizens. Or they want to be outraged by everything but the actual important things.
@@dp1986x earth is flat
whatever makes you feel superior lol
Tupac, K-Rino, & Immortal Technique are probably the most woke rappers in the game. Probably the 5% of woke people in the world.
Lol being “woke” is a pathetic way to be. You just act smarter and better than others without actually doing anything, he isn’t “woke”, he’s just an intelligent human with a sense of compassion
PAC was so ahead of his time, miss him more than ever.
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-
Marc Armour True that🙏🏾
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
Goddamn. Still relevant. Rest in power.
@@batsukamuro missing him 😢
true wisdom is timeless.....Tupac was timeless 😢❤
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.
It's relevant since the inception of commerce

Yes me too i would rather Tupac than Trump for president
fuck trump and hillary is a fucking liar
Yea, I think Tupac would be a better president at his worst than Trump at his best.
HEY that's cool you have your opinion but this is an opportunity to think a little bit more profoundly than what your thinking.. Try to step outside the box of the mainstream media and what they have you thinking about. Its important but this is an opportunity to engage into a something deeper and more profound.. I truly hope you can take what I just said in a good way and do it... If you get mad.. well I'm sorry I didn't mean to upset you... Good luck
Pac knew Trump was a snake back then
tupac was an actor. Look him up, not hard to find. He was a feminine homosexual aspiring actor. Lobbyists for the rich/powerful private prison corporations hired him and other actors to be gangster rappers to make violence cool for black youths. At the exact same time those lobbyists were buying politicians and passed Biden's crime bill to then lock up the black youth.
Tupac: Mentions trumps name for a brief second
MTV: This interview is about Donald Trump
He used trump as an example of greed,He was right though.RIP legend Tupac
The same goes for the black millionaires.
Its funny how 4 years later when signed with Deathrow he became the guy with "Jewels" and "mansions" the exact same thing he is talking down on.

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.

Correct - no other big rapper has danced ballet, fuck outta here. Look at his early videos; son was definitely playing on both sides of the field, be honest with yourself...

Tupac tried to keep us together not separated.

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.

Subutiya Saahir Well they did a great job! Looks as good as new. :)
Subutiya Saahir They didn't clear it up. You just saw a shitty VHS rip before this copy of it. MTV owns the footage so of course their master tape is better quality than some random guys VHS rip. I know you're a teen so let me teach you something. TV has always showed clear, you actually think TV video quality was pixilated like the old footage you see on TH-cam? Nah bruh, those are just people's shitty VHS rips of shows.
Hd is digital format of resolution, it's possible to achieve full hd from professional camera analog tape.
Movies captured on film were always shot in 2k and up. 2k is the minimum for HD quality. I don't think that vhs tapes were capable of 2k.
"Tupac Talks Donald Trump and Greed..." Pac literally mentioned him for like 5 seconds just as a metaphor. Lmao MTV.

@@tantrichealing533 ive heard this theory as well!
So you mean to tell me the government wasn't happy when he died? He's exactly right about America. Malcolm X, Tupac Shakur had some of the realest messages.. doubt America would be the same if they both survived.
You must take care of yourself, your family, and your neighbors. (That's how people survived before the government took over parenting responsibilities) The shit Tupac is talking about in this interview has been tried numerous times throughout history (its called communism/socialism and it is always a disaster).
2) Tupac never lived through "true poverty" (his idea of poverty is getting your electric shut off). It's capitalism's fault Tupacs mom didn't pay the electric bill? (Maybe she should have set down the black panther flag and grabbed a job application)
3) Notice how Tupac felt bad...but he wasn't donating any of his "own" money to help fix the problem. He wanted government to do that.... GTFOH
@@cappy2282 its a big picture buddy, its a state of mind a mindset, or the spark that ignites the flame. EVerything he speaks cant be literal to a literal degree. Of course you can have 2 houses or do whatever u want with what you earned, thats not the point, an example would be yu have one house you rent one out, Perhaps your rent is 150$ less than current martket, to assist struggling families or you rent one out and build a complex for nuclear struggling families, or single mothers.
ITs the mindset of change, not that communist socialism shyt. Of course its home training, parenting etc, again he mentions "self reliance" so of course those are important things for progress. But if you say okay well try this, you go ahead and Build a housing complex, and then you cram it right in the heart of the inner city/ghetto/less than savory environment and expect the change or some revolution. Thats a lost battle before it started. You wouldnt send your opiod addicted family member to a abandon builidng to reside where there are real junkies and expect him to do better, no, you would send him to "rehab",a place what probably have serene ambiance , green trees, fresh water rivers and meditation and shyt. And even then, sometimes they still cant shake the addiction or dont want to, and yet society has not given up on the Opiod Crisis now have they? , so why should the world give up to the "numerous times throughout history.. that is always a disaster" you mentioned. i know you didnt say give up, but thats how it feels reading that statement, that it is "always a disaster".. End of the day , Its a mutual responsibility,my brothers keeper, not just whites do better, or blacks,everybody .. i think thats what the Young Blood (at the time) Pac was talking about. Not a segregation of anykind, lets do the shyt together bro. Bless
@@Lawless187indika I respect everything you are saying but
1) They're still fighting the opiate pandemic...because there is a lot of money to be made with treatment lol
2) I don't know about you but I don't want section 8 housing built anywhere near my house lol. I agree that building shit in the middle of the ghetto is probably not the best idea...but like I said I don't want that shit built in my suburbs.
3) Its crazy how the quality of life was better for minorities in the 1940's (before the civil rights movement and well before affirmative action) now we must ask ourselves why that is? Its because back then minorities took care of themselves and their communities...they worshipped god not the American government.
4) Having compassion for the poor is an old ideal (there was this one guy named jesus) and America can always do better...but the poorest man in America is still living a better life than most people on the planet.
5) You want to help the poor...force Nike and all those other woke billion dollar companies to built their factories in this country. The opportunity for a well paying job would do wonders for ALL Americans (whether black, white, purple, or green)
