Mar 18, 2018 "Im in the club to beef you gotta murder me there" - Proof, 40 Oz "I heard a rumor I died murdered in cold blood, dramatized Pictures of me in my final stage, you know mama cried But that was fiction, some coward got the story twisted Like I no longer existed, mysteriously missin" - 2Pac, Ain't Hard 2 Find "n----s gettin shot, comin back resurrected, its that raw s--- n----- check it" - Pac, Blasphemy “You see the rain on my window pane, waking up in cold sweats having dreams of going out with a b--- My poppa died by the gun, I’ll die by the gun And if I have a son he’ll probably die by the same” - Dolla, Georgia Nights
Mar 18, 2018 Do you think some of the eeriness is taken away due to the fact he was so certain he'd die young that he mentioned dying so often though? If you know what I mean. Like gangsters don't die of natural causes and he pissed a lot of people off that he mentioned it so often - I'm sure you get what I mean. Didn't he even record a fuckload of songs saying if I die this way put this out, this way put that out and so on? I may be wrong.
Mar 18, 2018 Biggie last song on album called Life After Death "you're nobody til somebody kills you" released shortly after being shot and killed
Mar 18, 2018 I don't think it hurts the eeriness. People rap about dying all the time. The fact that Tupac was so sure it was going to happen (due to how radical his lifestyle was) and it actually happened makes it even more unsettling. And he made his darkest album right around his death, but he didn't know he would get mixed up with Orlando right around completion of that record. It's an eerie coincidence
Mar 18, 2018 Can we make a rule to exclude anything said by a Shady/Strange/Funk Volume/Odd Future rapper + Immortal Technique before we continue
Mar 18, 2018 Kinda just seems like coincidence to me. Rappers talk about dying all the time and it's very rare that anything ever comes of it, Pac's lyrics are eerie in retrospect because he actually died, but if he'd lived and some other rapper had been killed, we'd prolly be saying the same things about them.
Mar 18, 2018 The difference being Tupac was obsessed with dying to a greater extent than anyone else because he knew the way he lived was too risky and it would bite him eventually.
Mar 18, 2018 The guy walked up and punched out a known street killer because he stole one of his buddies chains. He had no fear of death or consequences whatsoever No one else in the rap business would do that or ever will do that again
Mar 18, 2018 I’m not sure if eerie and “hood” fall under the same category but I’ve been trying to find a playlist on Spotify for something like this. “Bullets have a name defined by different calibers Concrete jungle, beware of different challengers Gotta have the stomach for dookie bags and catheters Play your cards right or be scratching off them calendars”
