different Era... Pac wasnt losing money off the stuff he was saying

Kanye was losing money so he played the game...

It took something major for Kanye to say sorry... you think if the taylor swift incident didnt happen he wouldve said sorry to Bush...

and even if you look at the interview he looked uncomfortable saying it...

If you listen to Mike Pedge trilogy... he's cube...

Lupe is the closes thing to Chuck... Lupe goes to the schools and everything... hes a mix of Chuck and Pac

ofcourse he lost money he was virtually broke because he was sued left right and centre, even after his death

politicians trying ban his record

pinning cop killing on his record

female turning on him during the rape case

trial by media

film producers unwilling to work with him, he had to beg to work on gridlock'd because the producers and actors had heard things about him through the media..the hughs brothers dropped him off the movie menace 2 society and then he ended up sued and doin time

the difference between pac is he simply didnt give a fuck about wat anyone thought and the only time he apologized was when he knows he was out of line, he never apologized to no politicians dats fo shore..nigga dissed bill clinton and bob dole in one of his biggest records

kanye groveling to bush, why? how u gonna ask forgiveness from a mass murderer war criminal, negro executioner? pac who was raised by black panthers wud never grovel to white folk just so they buy his records.....tis nigga wud spit on ur camera and dem white boys wud luv him

kanye dont got that edge, he dont got that street cred or black panther background....he's a diva

 

[bufu]

mos def? i honestly only listen to that old black star joint, but my friends were having a conversation about his views on 9/11 and how he will NEVER be invited to the white house lol unlike common. i can't speak on it but this is what wikipedia had to say about that.

"Mos Def and Immortal Technique released a similarly controversial song, "Bin Laden" in 2004, which blamed the Reagan Doctrine and President George W. Bush for the September 11, 2001 attacks. A club remix song, featuring Eminem, was released the following year, in 2005."

while it's pretty clear dude is smart, he also says a lot of controversial stuff too apparently

true... but what pac went through was different because pacs fanbase wasnt mainstream white people... it was black people and white poeple that listen to hip hop...

Kanye is a pop star ... and i dont think he said that he was apologying for saying what he said... he was just saying that he said it at the wrong time... and he had no right to judge a person...

If Kanye was straight hip hop and if niggas bought CD's he wouldnt say sorry to anyone...

and Kanye has just as much edge as pac do... nigga made a video hangin white people

Cant replace them.

There´s no one out there and Ill tell you why.

PAC.CUBE AND CHUCK D WERE ALL ALPHA DOGS.MAD MASCULINE.ALL THESE NIGGAS THAT YOU MENTIONED ARE HOMOS.OR HALF HOMOS.

 

[usmarin3]

Rap isn't chess, you just don't replace the pieces once one comes off the board. The reason why those dudes are legendary is because of their unique perspective, unless you can clone them, there is no replacement. It only stagnates rap when you keep looking for what's came before, why would you want a watered down Pac, Chuck D,etc.

 

[daboyag1]

im not talking replacements, but comparison wise

 

[real_hh_rep]

Fuck Pac! The amount of obsessive love he gets is ridiculous. There is no one today who could match Chuck D or Cube's outspokenness anyway.
