You were probably a really good mother im sorry for your loss
@@CometZz-os6gl I still am a great mama ! I have 3 more children I’m raising🙏🏽💙🤍 My son Shad is my Angel, now amongst the “Greats” He was a beautiful kid, child, grandchild, nephew, cousin and friend! Ask about him💙#ShadtheGodd

I’m sorry for your loss

Pac wasn't just a rapper. He was an artist. A poet
Actor and activist as well
A Rose that grew out of Concrete
@@LordFirekaze I had an English teacher in the year 2000 that was smart enough to use Pac to get through to us. When the topic of poetry came up, we all ignored her. She knew that 2Pac was a favorite rapper for majority of the class. The poetry she chose was "a rose that grew out of concrete." We were all kids that had major behavior issues, or came from broken/abusive homes, and she knew that specific piece of poetry would hit home. As someone that has made a pretty good life for myself (job, family, life in general...) this teacher doesn't know the impact it had. I remember it 22 years later, like it was yesterday. Good teaching, and amazing poetry!
Rhythm and poetry not hip hop
He was a prophet 💯 there was a lot more to him and he seemed to have premonitions I dunno he was just so different trying to push a positive message mostly anyways. RIP 2pac hell always live on
A man who gets emotional in front of his son and a strong father with a big heart, your father is my hero ❤
It beautiful seeing men showing their Emotions 🤴🏻🤴🏼🤴🏽🤴🏾🤴🏿
💯
Only weak minded „men“ are afraid to show emotions. It’s harder to be real than it is to pretend to not care
@@priscysey-yi5uxunless it's dumb ego anger ofcourse
I admire his dad so much.
Almost 3 decades and this song still puts a tear to my eyes. RIP 2Pac.
Absolutely! A good soul cry. I miss my 'black queen'💔

Facts
I was born in 2000 so after the songs release obviously but still since i can remember this song also brings tears to my eyes anytime i hear it
It’s #TIMELESS unlike the music out now well 90% of it
Tupac's mother has a great story also. She was a Black Panther who defended herself against government charges and won. Though she had her struggles, she was an amazing woman. RIP.
#RIPAfeni
… not to mention his Panther godmother was also charged for a different political crime, fled to Cuba. Free to this day. - political asylum. Now she was a true hog - a real frontline fighter down with the cause.
She was pregnant with Tupac at the time as well, he mentioned that his embryo was cultivated in jail.
And his step dad mutulu shakur and godfather Geronimo Pratt both political prisoners
@@slagwill5599 Assata Shakur
No BS, this is exactly what Pac wanted for his music. To not just heard but felt and appreciated by anyone and everyone
You should have a million likes for your comment. 💜
Agreed ^^
Yes you said the words that PAC spoke, PaC had love for any and everyone that was good and meant well 🙏🏼💯
Yes!
Indeed 🙏
I lost my mom she didn’t have any crack addictions but she was an alcoholic up until the last year of her life she was alcohol free and she spent it with me!! You still my black queen mama, YOU ARE APPRECIATED!😢
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

My oldest son played this son for me when I came home for rehab in 1995. October 5, I will be 30 years clean and sober. I love Tupac music he's a poetic genius.
I feel like no one can get through “Dear Mama” without crying
There’s no way. You’d have to be soulless to not be affected by this song.
Yup I’m over here bawling like always. So good!
❤️❤️❤️
Umm I don’t cry so
This song gives me chill to this day, I grew up in the 90s and we lived in a rough neighborhood “the hood” and I had this neighbor who would lift weights outside to Tupac almost every morning……so some day I would wake up to him literally……but when I heard this song …whew…like O said …chills
Can't believe it's been almost 30 years since Pac left us. The 90s still feel like 10 years ago for me.
I was 20 when Pac died. Seems like a lifetime ago😭😭
Facts I remember listening to this at age 8. Didn't understand he lyrics at the time but hearing the lyrics now I understand the meaning behind it and its become nostalgic for me. The 90s feels just like it was yesterday for me.
Shhhhh. The 90s were 10 years ago gd it!
Dude I was 7 when this came out and it still had me leaning on every word. Great music everywhere at the time.
Yeah I have that same feeling aswell I feel like the 90s was 10 years ago
I remember hearing this as a young girl and tears rolled down my face while we were driving to a hotel hiding from my dad ... my older sister played it for my mom while driving pretty far ... Dear Mama always gets me choked up...
It’s a hard one not too, my mom had 3 of us and my dad never helped, I’m a big mamas boy cause she’s one of the strongest people in the world, I can’t hear this and not tear up heavy
This comment made me cry. Sending you love ❤
Wow. 😢 beautiful
Don't ever apologize for showing your true raw emotion!! .. I cried with you!
Agreed
Me too, when he started to tear up I did too. It’s a beautiful thing
Tupac Shakur wasn’t just a rapper he was a poet that told stories not just about his experiences but the “black” experience. He was the balance music needed. R.I.P. to the king 🖤🤎
Yes his poetry is the truth, what a beautiful soul he was.
Exactly. Thank you for sharing that.
Our black Shakespeare indeed🥰
🙏🏼😔❣️
I feel like all rap is a form of poetry but yes imo he’s was a poet first and foremost before a musician, besides all the many reasons I wish he were still here but I think he would have done more acting an branched out into artistic areas that were not “ acceptable activities “ for rappers in the 90s
For the Father to openly cry in front of his son and look him in the eye while expressing himself...WOW if more fathers were this vulnerable and present and willing to honour/live up to that role in their children's life's especially their son's... just imagine what the world would look like...as a male and music lover thank you for this video experience 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾!!!
Very wholesome, loved this vid
YES!
You're spot on with this comment.
TO THE DAD: I appreciate you and your emotional availability to your son in this moment. I see your imprint on your son just in his mannerisms and demeanor. His calmness speaks of the work you've done Brother. I applaud you.
It's because his sons favourite father and son activity is to get his dad in a headlock every night, that's why he's really crying just doesn't want to tell his son he dislikes that game
Respect
As a father, this resounds with me. I try n be sure to show my son that I am not perfect/ all powerful. I’m human and make mistakes. But I really do try
Tupac was a poet, lyricist, activist, and talented actor ♥️
What a touching dynamic, Father and Son bonding over music. And Rap which is outside of Dad’s repertoire yet he receives it with an open heart!♥️
I'm 55, and a white woman. I was a single mother in the 90's, raising three children completely on my own without any support from anywhere, living in public housing and supporting all four of us on $13 an hr. It was rough. This song particularly, helped me get through those years, knowing I was seen and understood so accurately, and appreciated. Tupac was an amazing man aside from his music, well ahead of the consciousness of that era, and even to this day. Much more advanced and elevated in his Soul, like Prince. I will forever and ever hold this man in my heart for all the strength he gave me through his music for a lot of trials and tribulations in a socioeconomic trench. I felt comforted by the lyrics, the beats, the message.....there will never, ever, ever, ever be another Tupac. I hope he really is in Cuba living his life in Peace, but then again....maybe he is in another dimension far away from this nonsense called 'humanity'. Love you forever Pac.
i don't know your kids but i was to say thank you on their behalf !!!!!
Sending you ❤
🙏🤍 thank you for sharing this
You're amazing!!! I know your kids love you! ❤️❤️❤️
❤❤
This father broke everything down so precisely. I love this as a black woman watching this two white men.
Agreed!
They see the humanity, not the race.
@@ms.bubs4fun506 she knows
@@ms.bubs4fun506 uhhhhh she DEFINITELY knows🤦🏾♀️
Thanks for letting us know your black
Tupac was far beyond his time and will forever be missed in life and music
My son played this for me all the time! He was murdered 6 years ago at the age of 23! This song will ALWAYS be very personal to me. Rest in Paradise Austin 🕊️ It’s beautiful to see the relationship you have with your Dad! This is my first video I’ve seen of you and him! New sub here! One day looking back these memories will mean EVERYTHING to you!
I'm so sorry for your loss. You are an amazing mother. Rest in paradise, Austin.💕
I’m so sorry! That’s heartbreaking, so sorry for the loss of your son
In 2009, the song was added to the National Recording Registry in the Library of Congress, who deemed it a work that is "culturally, historically, or aesthetically important, and/or inform or reflect life in the United States."[3] In a press release, the organization called the song "a moving and eloquent homage to both the murdered rapper's own mother and all mothers struggling to maintain a family in the face of addiction, poverty and societal indifference."
Thank you! Did not know this. Great to see this song recognized to that degree. #Tupacforever
Wow, Thank You for this information.💯💯💯😎👍
WOW!!!! Did not know that!!! Thank you!! 💐
I love when we share information. Thanks 😊
Wow I did not know That 'Ty".
I was in prison and it was lock down. We only had the radio playing for hours. Dear Mama came on and I felt like crying. I looked around and saw literally everyone else tearing up, if not, burying their face in the pillow to hide their tears. I felt like we all had a story and realized that we're all human no matter what we did to get there. All of us shared a moment and were all equal for that few minutes. I can't hear it without crying to this day. Respect ✊🏾
Wow that’s powerful
Wow, amazing. What prison were you at?
That’s a beautiful story. Thank you for sharing. Girls love their mamas but boys/men reallllyyy love their mamas. Especially if she was a good one.
@@kmsleyang8972 you get it.aint non better than mama
When I was locked up in county jail we NEVER had music except on holidays they'd be nice and play the radio. Those were the best days and the whole cell block would be singing along. No fights that day
Tupac was my mom's favorite rapper and one of his biggest fans . She passed away in 2020 from complications from Covid. This was of her favorite songs from Pac. Much love and respect to you, your dad, and family.
☝🏾 My condolences to you and your family 🙏🏿💯😭
Your mom had great taste, I’m also one of the biggest Tupac fans, still listening to his music, watching his movies, music videos and reading his poetry. Condolences for your precious mom….
My brother put Dear Mama on a mixtape for my mother when he was a teenager. It 100% perfectly represented our childhood. He is 12 years older than me and we have different fathers. My mother had an addiction problem with heroin, which eventually took her life. It's lovely to share the sentiment of this song with you and your father. This song represents so much to so many people.
I'm sending love to you in this moment. ❤
Your dad is a real one. Much respect.
RESPECT!
You too 🤭
yes id have to agree!!
Yeah he gave a greater review. He complemented PAC but it was like he showed compassion for moms too. Made me feel that he also appreciates his wife for bringing his son into this world. I look at things in a deep way at times. Great job Pops! Thanks for putting dad onto this type of art young man.
I was crying right along with him…. I’ve heard this song so many times it still gets me😢one of my favorite PAC songs‼️ GOD BLESS❤
I love this Dad. He’s a genuine man. This world needs more men like this.
True
There is a lot of genuine men out there you just choose other men, for whatever reason.
@@FatherDingo nah there isn't most people are a holes
Said the exact same thing.
Agreed 100%!
“Dear Mama” I believe is the only hip hop rap song that’s urban radio stations plays on Mother’s Day Sunday, RIP Tupac
I love how the emotion hits so hard that your Dad sheds a tear. I love how much he appreciates this song.
I'm a 44 year old black man and it make my heart glad to see this father and son appreciate this song and the talent that produced it.
I'm 44 as well I remember this song on the radio and him being in prison when this song was released!
40 and cried too going to see my mom tomorrow..
@@MasQueVencedorEnCristo 😂
I'm 44 as well and remember this when it came out still powerful today as it was when it came out but even more so now
Me too 44 from ivory coast West Africa...Tupac True legend rest in power
I miss when rap would have such strong messages like this.
Still does just gotta find the right artists
@@Justaviewer99 You're right!
Same - there still is powerful rap but it’s not what’s playing constantly on the radio. The 90’s pop culture was about substance.. I wonder why music along that vein can’t break thru to top hits now. Makes ya wonder 🤔
@@ninasacks1980 the internet is a great thing, but if there is one thing that it has done wrong, it is making people impatient. Most people are just looking for the quick dopamine hit while they’re on the way to work. Even our food has become like this with fast food restaurants. Of course, not everyone is affected as greatly, but most aren’t willing to take the extra time to appreciate something deep and complex.
Austin Harrison I don’t disagree with your assessment
dad is so real and genuine... i believe every word an emotion comes from his heart
as a grown ass man, i cant hear this song without shedding a tear, coming from a single parent household my mom is all we ever had. she worked long hours in a factory in downtown. i would wait outside and look at every bus pass by hoping my mom was on it. 8pm everyday. shed come home and still cook dinner. Much love to all the moms out there, believe me as men you ladies are our inspiration.
You can clearly see Dad remembering his childhood it don’t matter if we are black white Asian Mexican we all struggle man but also we all love momma ❤️❤️
Indeeed
U still gotta bring race into it and separate us humans 🙄
Amen
Thats the point.I said that every day here in germany.We all are the Same HUMAN Peace Pac
@@v3insoldi3r85 we are not the same in terms of looks that cant be denied but that means nothing when it comes to how we should treat each other so separation is not wrong but in the way that is supposed to be not like what those dogshit humans do that they treat each other differently because of race
The best line, "Even though you were a crack fiend mama, you'll always be a BLACK QUEEN, mama." Gets me every time.
I love when he says she makes Miracles every Thanksgiving 💓
@@larhondah.2793 awwwwww yeah that’s a good one too 🖤
And that's why I've always hated this song. So many got that from their crack feind mothers but not me. She took a hit when I was 12 years old then turned into a heartless monster
@@larhondah.2793 Mother smoked up our food, we barely ate much less Thanksgiving food 🤦🏿♀️
@@SoulSearch11110 sorry to hear that about your experience.. my mom stole alot from me too.. but one thing I learned and pac brought out with that line is.. we learn our parents are human just like us.. who make mistakes.. and we can forgive them to let that pain go and appreciate that we wouldnt be here if not for them.. and they teach us who NOT to be... God bless you
This song right here made me see through my life that my own mother had it hard and she just couldn't be blamed for most the things she did just to get by . Pac made me feel like poverty doesn't define us and just being broke I could resignate with him this song is just amazing
My son made me a homemade mother's day card when he was 14yrs old and it was some of the lyrics from Dear Moma. I didn't realize that's where the words came from until years later, I was going through all his cards from the past. As a 14yr old he understood the struggles that I was going through for him, because of him and my heart was soo full of love for my child at that point and we connected on so many levels. I felt your dads tears because I to, cried those same tears.❤❤❤. I truly enjoy your interpretation of all music. By the way my son is now 31yrs old and I still have that card😊
I love this story so much
i love this comment so much
That card is priceless. I have something similar from primary school days... I love my handmade cards. You were blessed for sure. ❤
I'm crying just off his appreciation for the time he's spending with his son, his appreciation for the music, and his ability to articulate just how the music made him feel. It was a "gorgeous" song. Couldn't have said it better Dad. This was an amazing share!! Thank you guys!!
Was trying to find the right words to say, definitely shed a tear watching this as someone who loves the song. That was great
@@BigDaddy-69c it really was 🎧🎤 🖤
Same.
Same.... could hardly contain myself 😭😭
Agreed , thank you all wynter!
Don’t worry dad, millions of grown men and women and everyone in between (including me) cried when they first heard this song, even till today. It’s beautiful poetry.
For as hard as I think I am, every time I hear "Dear Mama" I cry thinking of my mother and the love I have for her
I cry nearly every time I hear the acoustic guitar version of thugs mansion, this one gets me too. Deep meaningful lyrics
@@josequintero7250 EXACTLY! Honestly music is the only art form that has ever made me cry, I could watch a very sad video and not feel much but if I listen to a song I cant control it.
@@Sloppyjoe7390 feel so close by Calvin Harris made me and my wife cry at our wedding lmao the sound of silence by disturbed makes me feel so many emotions at once I can’t contain it lol
Crying now 😢
PAC impacted not only Generations, but Races too.
I get so emotional whenever I hear this song. Kindly allow me to stop here. This guy could have easily united the universe.
What a loss! 💔
Love & Peace from South Africa. ❤
The background chorus sounds old school because it's a spin on the Spinner's song "Sadie" that talks about mothers. My first 2pac song I've ever heard and I see why he received all the hype. Touching lyrics with the combination of the emotions provoked by the "Sadie" background. Thanks for sharing!
Your pops getting emotional shows that he's reminiscing on the times his mom was there for him through any hardship. Stay close with your parents young man, they're making your life as easy as possible because they know what it's like when life gets too difficult. Beautiful.
Well said. I was thinking the same thing.
I can't listen to that song without shedding tears because I can relate. I was in and out of jail, selling drugs since I was 15, then began to use them by 17 and (after a long fight with addiction, incarceration and (everything that comes with it) I got clean 10 yrs later. By then, my younger brother of 11 yrs was doing the same shit only worse and all 3 of us boys had put our single mother thru hell and yet, she was the most selfless person I've ever known the entire time! After my brother put her through over 10 yrs of heartache and constant worries, I was able to buy, gut and remodel a little 2 bedroom 1 bath Condo for her to retire a little early in. Everything was brand new with tags on all the appliances, new kitchen cabinets,granite,floors, doors (literally everything from the drywall in) and she was so excited! One day I was finishing up the bathroom walls and she was supposed to come over and do some touch up in the bedrooms because she wanted to be a part of the whole thing and she was really good at diffrent types of DIY improvements. But, , she didn't show up and after I called her a few times throughout the day without an answer, I had a pit in my stomach and went to her apartment to find her cold and stiff. She died shortly after she told me she was coming over the day before (according to the time of death.) I never got to see the smile on her face when she would've moved in and seen the finished product 2 wks later! She was classy, looked like a million bucks (even though she didn't have 2 nickles to rub together) but, you'd never know that and she'd go without to provide for us.
Yeee.
Rhythm And Poetry. Now-a-days it's mostly about materialism, and hate, unfortunately. :/
I was just having a Pac or Biggie convo with someone who brought it up. I overall like Pac more, and Pac sold more. Hehe. I know a lot of details about him. Supposedly he is still alive, and the radio announcement of him dying was to throw others off, as well his family and whatnot have you say a doc is coming out to prove he's alive. #90sKid #BornIn89
"A mother is a son's first true love..."
Rest in Peace, Legend ✌️🙏
Facts💯💯💯
They say the same thing about a daughter and her father.
A mothers heart is childs first beat...
That some BS 💯
@@strictlynorthside2203 your mother issues is not an experience like that for all. Sorry you did not have a good mother because that is unusual for someone to house you for 9 months just to treat you like crap. Hope she turns around or you get motherly love from a positive and supportive person in your life. 🙏🏾
The father has a great ear for key components throughout the song. His reaction to Pac’s bars is priceless.
I love that he sampled Joe Sample's In All My Wildest Dreams and The Spinners Sadie. I am a 70's and 90's R&B and jazz fan so this song really emcompasses both era's. I love Tupac and he will forever be a legend!
Pacs mom was a Black Panther. She was very involved in black rights as well as being an addict at one point. Still, she created the most influential songwriters/rapper of all time. Yes, a thank you song should've been created for this woman!
Go looking into who LeSane Parish Crooks & Alice is 😁🙆🏽♀️
Black women are a gift to this earth and everything they give. 🖤🤎🙌🏾💪🏾✊🏾
@@DandyDuh that’s Tupac and his mama’s real names but she changed his name legally to Tupac amaru shakur after Peruvian native revolutionary Tupac amaru II read his story is incredible
@@diinomaaxi "Afeni's" government name was Alice Faye Williams & "Tupac's" was LeSane Parish Crooks 😮💨
Didn't ask about their character & stage names. You also miss Makaveli & that book too..
You also forgot to mention that there that University in California that teaches "Tupac classes".
I was alive, witnessed & am old enough to remember & see things that most people don't.
But thanks, their names are Alice Faye Williams & LeSane Parish Crooks 😮💨
If I were you, I'd actually be a little bit more curious about all of that & who those people are or "were" 😉💁🏽♀️🥴

This is why Pac is the best . . .
He could reach any race and touch them with is poetry .
Yup. I
Don’t care about rap but Tupac I do listen to!
@@xmochix604 i don't know what it is with his rap , his writing, his words .
But i feel it is poetry , at least to me.
So many lines of his just make sense or it makes me think about what he is saying . One line i truly like , " I rather die like a man then live like a coward. " I'm not sure if he wrote but i 1st heard it threw PAC.
He the Goat that can’t be touched
@@seanmiklo8870 It’s definitely poetry. There are a lot of musicians Who I also count as poets, like Jim Morrison, Bob Marley, and like you said Tupac I could go on forever
In 10th grade my English teacher had as compare the poem Do not go gentle into that good night by poet Dylan Thomas with Me Against The World by 2Pac. Dope teacher that I will definitely remember
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Only rapper that can make you feel this way 🐐
A legend never dies, RiP 2Pac, you music will live forever
I love his father’s open mindedness to music, and the fact that his son is comfortable sharing his music is very special. Thank you for sharing your father with the world.
Parents fighting addiction but doing their best, children loving their parents thru their mistakes...sung it to my mom as a child. Still listen after her death 🙏🏽💜
AaaaaaaasooooUTELY!!!!!!
No cursing, no disrespect to black women and still he gets his point across. Tupac was truly an inspiration to me. More music needs to be made like this.
Yes!!!!
No disrespect to women FULL STOP. Dint need to add race to it
@@bobbyduncan2035 black women, because we get the most disrespect..stop hating
@@bobbyduncan2035 yes we do it is clearly an issue in the community
I agree
This is the first time I have heard this song. It is a fantastic tribute to a mom from her son. Tupac did a great job. The lyrics are amazing!!
Never ever heard a song by Tupac before or listen to rap period . Made me cry too ! 😢
Me too and I'm not a cryer
Now listen to Kendrick Lamar’s last album, Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers. You will see where PAC left us and began again. Listen and do not multi task. Kendrick is dense. ❤
I'm 60 & hearing this for the first time too. Trying to keep it together but failing. 2pac is an amazing artist! My mom was schizophrenic so I had my own struggles. I know what it is to finally realize her strength in such a hard life. I am expanding so much, so late in life, but expansion is never a bad thing.
Expansion is beautiful! ✊🏾🙏🏾
your age has nothing to do with your mental growth. meaning, u can learn and grow at any age - and its ok. so keep doing it
Beautiful. Keep expanding. That’s what I want to do. 💜
It's not thing at all. Keep on expanding 🙂. Growth is great!
Congratulations on continuing to evolve brother.
The fact that his father literally paid attention to EVERYTHING ABOUT THE SONG, makes my soul feel warm. His total appreciation for the lyrics and instruments and notes that most ppl miss..... This was beautiful. Your father is a beautiful human being and your relationship with him is a blessing. ♥️♥️♥️
You just said every single word I wanted to say😊
He really is a great.
I love how his Dad takes this whole experience so seriously. He is so supportive ❤❤
FAKZ. 👑
Yes❤
Music is truly a force.. what bridges cultures together, it's beautiful..
This Song always gets Me😭😭😭😭especially since I've loss My Mom....2PAC FOREVER 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is such a beautiful snapshot of the human experience. Made me tear up seeing your dad tear up. This is what music is supposed to represent emotions and feelings that cross generations and cultures.
And somehow we have lost this! There is no emotion in today's music. The "rap or sing" about the samething money, drugs and sex it's just sad
what are you doing here Nick ?!!! HAhahaha , take care
Nick gets around lol 🤣 and perfectly said 👌🏻
You have the coolest nicest dad bruh
Now guys, its time for some protein pudding.
This is how I make it.
Basically mix water in little by little
Pac also did not curse 1 time in this song or anything negative wording..he kept this song as pure as could be..it gets overlooked to its value..its definitely art..Rip Pac
@TheRealSHNEAKO🏳️🌈 they said in thus song cuh
❤
@TheRealSHNEAKO🏳️🌈 but that’s why he was so amazing, he was versatile. That’s why he was/is the goat
Songs are complete works of art and this one is a Picasso!!!!
word. My grade 7 teacher played this song in class during a poetry unit.
PAC was a poet! 😢😢
As a boy who grew up in the 90’s just me and my mom for majority of my childhood this song will always have a special place in my heart. I can never listen to it and not shed a tear thinking of my mom.
Man this father son relationship is something special. Much respect! One of the coolest dad's I've seen!
😎 cool son and Pops...
LOVE IT
True that though, me and my pops cant even speak the same language l
@@do-your-own-research5240 age gap and cultural difference for me and my dad! I'm old school but he's super super old school! Lol
I usually avoid this song because it always brings me to tears. I loss my mom when I was 18 from cancer. I'm 43 now and still mourn her and miss her so much! Such a great song! Wiping my tears..
I lost mine at 23 from heart attack. She was my world. I’m 42 and still have crying days. Sorry for your loss
I lost mine when i was 18 too, aint a woman alive that can ma mommas place ❤❤
God bless you and your family ❤️
I know all of your mothers are watching from the clouds, god bless your souls and I know you keep her dear in your hearts
I lost mine at 18 from cancer too almost 20 years ago....its tough but I try to live my best life for her
Just by sitting with your father and listening to this masterpiece is ...priceless.
I lost my mom and this song makes me cry no matter where its playing. But i love to listen to it because of the strength of moms, especially mine.. I love this song. Hits me in the feels man...😩
"The only thing that'll kill me is death. That's the only thing that'll stop me and even then my music will live forever" -Tupac Shakur
I’m a 47 year old white guy and never heard this song and I was also crying. My mom passed away in 2017 and this song reminded me of her big time
Beautiful
Sorry you lost your mom, I think it's beautiful this song gave you an emotional release
Sorry for your loss. I'm close to you in age. I'll make sure to appreciate mine more after you saying that..

I'm crying simply from the beauty of this moment as an example of the boundless connection that humanity is meant to have. Not just across generations but also across time, forms of expression, and culture.
As a die hard Tupac fan, I truly love his reaction to this song. It’s beyond beautiful to see Tupac is STILL able to touch HUMAN BEINGS from all walks of life, ages, backgrounds, etc. Thanks for posting this!
OMG you just verbalized my EXACT feelings. I brought my son up on TUPAC. For many many years and right up until this day I got a whole Tupac discography on my playlist.
@@wandamcclain4008 I love it! 🤍🤍
Forreal!!
Facts
Even though I have listened to this for years I cried watching him enjoy and feel this music
This gave me goosebumps. Music unites people of all ages, genders, races, religions etc. Respect.
Absolutely
💯
Most definitely ❤️❤️🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽

Tupac was a master of art. His mother was a black panther who became a crack addict but overcame it. She always loved her kids and still fights to carry on his legacy till this day.
Im so glad that you and father appreciate REAL music. Tupac has many songs that speak about real things that were going on in the world around him and how it affected him. His delivery is always solid and the music is amazing. So glad this popped up on my feed ❤
If more Dads were like him, there wouldn't be half the drill killing. He really listened to the story & 🎶 . Your a lucky son bro. Honor tht man while he's alive 🙌🏽
That’s right,give that man his flowers 💐
Get your guys culture right

This is my hubby. He tries to be a great dad. Kids grow and change. So he trying to leane and change to what the boys need!
This gentleman is a true music connoisseur. No preconceived notions. Just analyzing and assessing a song In it’s purest form. How all styles and genres of music should be accessed. Bravo

We’ll said
Very well said.
This content is exactly what i need. I cry at so many songs and it makes me feel weird. Like whats wrong with me? Absolutely nothing is wrong with me. Im a deep empath just like his dad
Everyone thinks rap is about being flashy or flamboyant, it's not. It's about making music that people can relate too, Tupac was the embodiment of the hip hop culture. The perfect artist.
A little background for your father and you to explore...Tupac's mother was Afeni Shakur. She was a Black Panther activist. Read her book. She named Tupac after a revolutionary leader by the name of Tupac Amaru from Peru. Tupac grew up as a young activist. He was an avid reader and a young performer in acting. Often times record labels will push black artists to develop a more edger gangster persona to sell records. Sadly rappers with a more poetic and conscious message are forced to "dumb it down" and play a stereotype to keep their contracts.
She changed his name to Tupac Shakur
Socially, politically, and artfully conscious. Must be sharply pointed, because we can be conscious of anything. That word is not an automatic positive, though we assume.
FACTS!
@@mayanking339 His name is Tupac Amaru Shakur
You Absolutely Hit That Sis.
Bro, make sure you cherish your father! Not only is he willing to open his mind to hip hop, he’s also a super intelligent dude!
Reminds me of my father. We sit down every chance we get and listen to music. My father raised me to be strong but my heart to be soft. I love my father this video reminds me of that special bond a son and father have. This is what we all need no matter what your color is and this is what the government stole from the African family. So much pain and hurt in this song it moves my soul and makes me proud that even tho I’m Caucasian I have African family and that we all started at home to make the difference. Let’s send this message in hopes to heal the African family and give their fathers back to them.
@@radicalred474 you blamed the government huh? you keep believing the bs you just said about black fathers, we are definitely in our childrens lives, but the media that look like you dont want to show that. if you want to blame somebody, try systemic racism, redlining, jim crow laws, sundown towns, non equal opportunity employment, and guess who came up with that?..and i can go on and on why black fathers was absent, but you wouldnt like it though..and i definitely know that yte fathers are absent too, so how about you heal yourself, we are just fine.
Im sure he does but wonder if he will ever realize how lucky he is. Probably not but man is he lucky

All of us who grew up in the struggle, really feel this song. I always cry when this song. I was raised by a single mother of 6.
You can tell this song cut deep for pops ❤ I don’t know if his mother is here still but if not condolences 💐 and IF NOT… we know where those emotions comes from.. He’s a very stand up guy. You got a good dad

"Dear Mama" was one of 25 recordings selected for preservation at the National Recording Registry in the Library of Congress in 2010, making it the third hip hop song to do so, following tracks by Public Enemy and Grandmaster Flash. The Library of Congress has called the song "a moving and eloquent homage to both the murdered rapper's own mother and all mothers struggling to maintain a family in the face of addiction, poverty and societal indifference."
🎉🎉🎉🎉
On mother's day weekend 😢
That's amazing
Now I wanna know which public enemy song is in it hahah
I get emotional every time I listen to this song 😢
This song is one of his most iconic. Still hits people hard today. Seeing a dad and son sit and listen and understanding what he said and how he felt. It is so beautiful
Agree. I love how much appreciation that the dad had for the song. 🥰❤
Yes
Hi Nikki Givens 👋 I hope my comment didn't sound as a form of privacy invasion your comment tells of a wonderful woman with a beautiful heart which led me to comment I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserve this complement. If you don’t mind can we be friends? Thanks God bless you….🌹
I completely agree with the original comment
It hits harder once you've lost your mom...
I think this what Pac wanted...his music to be heard and felt.
finally....someone who lets the song play without stopping and then talk about the song in detail. i mean, yeah, ya'll made comments during the song; however, you still wait for the end to fully talk about the song. thank you.
The fact that his life was stopped at 25 just shows us how ahead of his time Tupac actually was. His songs are not meant to be listened to and nod your head... they're meant to be felt, understood. Pac is truly the greatest!!
Biggie a close 2nd
I was 16 when both Big and Pac were killed. At the time my little ignorant ass really thought that 24 & 25 years old really was so much older than me. Now I'm 42. They were just kids.
@@Lord_Bibulous both got set up and murdered sadly
@@boxinglegend3060 I know this.
My mom passed away on 1-1-2022. I played this song after feeling like I wanted to blow my brains out. I was all alone in the car drinking a bottle to myself listening to this minutes after mom passed. This song stoped me from pulling the trigger and I remember all the good things my mom taught me… she was definitely there with me that night and stopped me from shooting myself in the head. Love you mom. I know you’re here with me no matter what. I’ll keep your memory alive always. Love you!
God bless you man the world 🌎 needs you! Some kids didn’t even have a mother to raise them because of adoption or drugs breaking up families or some boyfriends or husbands killing them.
@@Metamophisis thank you 🙏🏼 god bless you!
@@raulg.6643 I feel God works in mysterious ways. You telling me this story I just know in my heart the last thing your mother would have wanted was for you to take the life she gave you. Definitely feel even tho she wasn't there in the physical anymore she was a guardian angel to you in that very moment.
I felt that same way! My mom passed while i was on deployment. That was the worst pain i ever felt.
Praying for you hope it gets better 🙏🏾🙏🏾
He will forever be cherished and Loved
When you are opening to receiving one’s perspective you will connect and feel them on a deep spiritual level❤
This man has been dead for over 25 years and still can impact someone right away. Amazing!!
25 years.
That's sobering.
Yea

The song makes everyone think about their mom, childhood, and the journey and love we all have for our mothers.

Men only get their unconditional love from their mother’s.
We love you and appreciate you, mothers ❤
Every since I was a child I cannot listen to this song without crying 😢
Brenda’s Got a Baby is another one that will blow your dad’s mind, especially when you consider how old 2pac was when he released it. Definitely ahead of his time and truly missed❤️
I just mentioned this song to someone!
YES!!!🙌
The fact he wrote it based off an unfortunate event that happened during the filming of Juice really tells how connected he was.
You've raised an articulate, empathetic, kind young man there Dad.
Kudos to being you.
THE BEST RAPPER EVER..…!!!
@@bucksfan1977 sure is
Yes welldone Sir!. Your boy turned out amazing in such a worrisome generation!
I remember driving home from work in 95 listening to this song for the first time when I was a young 19 year old (sheltered white girl). The sun was setting in the city of Grand Rapids, MI where they never played black music before in Western conservative MI until around that year and I remember it so vividly. I was tearful and bought the "tape" that week. I never imagined that I'd be playing that same song to my own kids raising them as a single mom trying to do the best I could with no family or help from anyone. As a mother, you try your best with what you have been given and you pray your kids will forgive you and realize without a doubt they were and always will be loved. His lyrics are heartfelt speaking the reality of how hard it can be raising kids but in the end, LOVE truly is and always be the ONLY thing that matters. Thank you for honoring this beautiful song and the legendary Tupac.
You gained a new subscriber. Seeing the excitement of the kid to show the song to his father is what was most endearing. The kid is literally a real fan himself.
The ability of the dad to immerse himself in a song and its lyrics is amazing. Being able to cry in front his son 👏👏
It’s beautiful to see! If only we could all have a relationship like this
Well I mean people wouldn't watch it if they didn't try to make themselves cry huh. They have a lot to financially gain from "being" emotional
Be the relationship like this for someone 💕
@@mrgreen3378 lol they do a lot of these videos without crying
The relationship between father and son is really great
God bless you both 🙏
My dad is 76 years old from india came here in the 70s, he always loved dear mama. He recognizes tupacs voice anywhere as the “dear mama” guy. Powerful song.
i love this!
@@Jasmine-gh2wc I thought the exact same words!
That's EVERYTHING! Music is such a blessing. A UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE that transcends EVERYTHING!!!❤🙏🏾❤
My son played this on his wedding and we danced to it. I love my son and his kindred spirit. He made something out his life with all obstacles and overcome the world. We came from a third world country and he is a millionaire coming from nothing.
Wow❤
Lost my mom December 24 2019. She was amazing. Heard this shortly after she passed. I’ve heard it many times growing up in 90’s but when the lyric “there ain’t a woman alive that could take my momma’s place” broke me. Just typing that brought a tear in my eye. If your mom is still here, give her a call. We aren’t promised tomorrow so let her know you love her today.
As a person who grew up without my father. This song hits soo hard. Hard to get past it without tearing up
As a black woman and mother, I can’t ever listen to this and not cry. So many ppl I’ve grown up with can relate to this song word for word. That stuff is hard to see and is heartbreaking.
This touched me
Being a black divorced, single mom, you place everything on pause to raise your kids.. And a young black man at that.. You want to be the type of mom/woman your son brings home to you… The entire time I could see your dad reminiscing about his mom… ❤️
Same here, i can’t hear this song without crying. I don’t listen to this song much for that reason. Not that it’s a bad song, far from it. I just relate because, even though I didn’t live the same life that Tupac did, I still felt like I let my mom down in a lot of ways, but we never failed to show each other that unconditional love, no matter how imperfect either of us were. May she Rest In Peace. God bless!
@@bryanfuchs1512 You make your mom proud just by living your life to the fullest.. Good parents don’t care the amount of money you make nor the level of success you have.. Good parents want you to be better version (as far as character) as them.. Happiness, self acceptance, integrity and the love of humanity is what’s important.. Your momma is very very proud.. Don’t ever question it…❤️
❤️ You are appreciated, sis.
