I was watching a documentary about Tupac and they were saying things that were interesting. They said that eventhough Tupac's mom and father were both Black Panthers, Pac had a pretty normal childhood. He never hung around the thugs or did drugs or anything like that. Tupac developed this thug life character after he got famous. He wrote songs and then go and act them out after he wrote about it. Its more like Pac was playing a role. Does this make him fake or not
I heard that he wasn't really at all. he said in one documentary he only tried selling drugs for a week. He rapped about sellin s*** all the time. i think he fell into the lifestyle through the rap game, especially being around Suge
KILL YO`SELF!!! Selling drugs ain`t got nuthing to dew w/ being a Thug, A thug is a person who stands up for what they believe in, Like f*** depending on man and the government!!! E.C.(219)
Is that what defines a thug? At one point in history, every state from Virginia on down believed black people were 3/5 of a human being. They believed it so strongly, they fought a war to stand up for it. Were they thugs too?
o s***, u got em. weak ass definition of a thug. a thug is interchangable with gangster a life filled with drudgs, and vilence. was pac a thug? prob not he did some minor s*** but still focus was on rap and he's one of the best to do it next to biggie. snoop dog ait either, no mainstrean(emphasis on mainstream) rapper in the game right now is a thug. but rap shouldn't b about street cred
Aren't they all "industry thugs?" N E body from the hood grew up with certain guidelines, like at one point or another you're gonna have a fist fight, etc. But actual "thugs/gangsters" (or whatever you want to call them) are not making records and putting their face on tv. Tupac never had a criminal record before he sold a record. Not hating on your thread, I'm just saying...
