The Special Secret in Tupacs Music......albums 1 & 2...

Posted by NickelSlick at 6:08 PM

Tupac came into the game like an Apacalypse...with no signs of ILLness, no Reasons to Doubt and no suicidal thoughts about a Readiness to Die.

........no lineup of super-producers, no crafted drug-lord image, and no shock & Horror lyrics.


The geeks will tell you that Tupac didnt have multi-syllibic rhyme-patterns and metaphorical double-entrende-wordplay flows with breathe control.... and we say SO WHAT he had SOUL!


Tupacs debut





Young Black Male ( Self Explanatory)


Trapped (Police Brutality)

"You know they got me trapped in this prison of seclusion
Happiness, living on tha streets is a delusion
Even a smooth criminal one day must get caught
Shot up or shot down with tha bullet that he bought"


Souljas Story (Fighting Oppresion)

Violent (Dirty cops and Crooked Politicians)


Words Of Wisdom (Amerikkkan hypocricy)

"Protect thy self, reach with what you wanna do
Know thy self, teach what we been through
On with the knowledge of the place, then
No one will ever oppress this race again
No Malcolm X in my history text
Why is that?
Cause he tried to educate and liberate all blacks"


If my Homie Calls (Friendship)


Brendas got a Baby (Teenage Pregnancy)

Part Time Mutha (Drug abuse)

Tupacs sophmore album



...............Strictly for my N.I.G.G.A.Z



On Tupacs second album he had to avoid the "sophmore jinx"..so he gave it his all... knowing that what was Written in his Lifetime would reflect his life after Death.


Holla if Ya Hear me (The Struggle)

"Until then, raise up!
Tell my young black males, blaze up!
Life's a mess don't stress, test
I'm givin but be thankful that you're livin, blessed
Much love to my brothers in the pen
See ya when I free ya if not when they shove me in"



Souljahs Revenge (Police Brutality)

The Streets R Death (Inner city issues)

Keep Ya Head Up (Dedication to Black women)

"Some say the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
I say the darker the flesh then the deeper the roots"


Something to Die For (Each one Teach One)

Papaz Song (Single-parent households)

While some emcees were complaining about being "Black and ugly" Tupac was bragging about being "Black and proud"...


Tupac had a Story to tell with a Message for Real niggaz.



So tell the people that listen to music but cant hear it that Tupac desrves to be in your top 5 or on your GOAT list because he had the most valuable gift an artist can have......SOUL
