So does this make him any less legendary?..It's ironic because the same reason people clown Drake/rappers like him and use it as Leverage to keep them from being compared to Greats is because they sing on their songs and hooks too much..Now it seems as if yall using that same reason to act as if Pac not singing on alot of his own songs/hooks is A bad thing and it hurts his case for Greatest of All Time..
 
My two favorite Pac songs, So Many Tears & Ambitionz of A Rider featured just him and alot of other tracks where he performed the hook and had features, I wish he would have kept solo, so I disagree...

On the fact that alot of his mega hits had singers on them though, how you gonna knock a man for making good music? He had a vision, words, melody, etc and gave it to someone who could bring it home...

Does the fact that Quincy didnt sing those Michael songs make his contributions any less important?

Only hip hop heads have a problem with rappers who can sing tho. Otherwise Eminem wouldn't be the best seller or Drake wouldn't be platinum in 2013 or B.o.B wouldn't be Gold in 2013. Outside of message boards hip hop fans appreciate artistic rappers who can do both singing and rapping

Artistry is respected u are more talanted if u can sing hooks as well as rap. U can be a good rapper by just rapping but some people appreciate artists
 
I see your point but where it goes against w

But 2pac is an Artist tho..He's versatile with his subject matter,You never heard any rumors about niggas helping him write his raps,And He shifted the culture on some hip hop Michael Jackson shit...You gone penalize his legacy just because he can't sing or didn't harmonize on hooks often?

 
wat in thee hell is goin' on in here!

Oh he good don't get me wrong but there is obviously more artistic rappers who can sing or produce. 2pac never sung or produced. But he played his strength which was bars he could rap. U can't deny as a rapper strictly on a rapping tip 2pac is a legend yes

If u weren't alive when that era was Poppin there's no way you can relate or feel what was really going on. That's like me watching the JFK assassination trying to understand how the nation felt when I wasn't alive...A lot of you don't and won't be able to understand tupacs legacy cuz u was born after he died...If u wasn't a person that actually went to the store a purchacednjis music you just a immature kid trying to analyze something u ain't qualified to analyze...

Can't think of one besides So Many Tearz ... But I don't know if that would be considered a "Hit" tho

It was A single off an Album that sold 5 Million Copies..why not?

I don't know ... You can drop songs off a hot album that don't make the song a hit in itself

I was really asking the question .. Since I haven't looked up the chart info on it

It was top 50 on the top 100 top 25 on R&B charts and Top 10 on The Hip Hop Charts..It wasn't the biggest hit on Me Against the World..But It was A hit nonetheless
