This man was socially aware already at the age of 17. Can you believe that? Damn, when I was 17 I was busy playing Sega Genesis and Playstation. This man was not a "gangsta" like some people assume... He only rapped about them.

2pac died when he was 25 years old. He was still a kid. He still had a lot of maturing to do. I truly believe that if he were alive today he would be a role model, full of wisdom. Despite everything he accomplished in the music world, he did not have time to become the man he was supposed to be. R.I.P

I know alot of 17 year olds that are socially aware, the problem is nobody listens to them. One time somebody told that me that people don't start taking you serious until you are abou 26 or 27 years old. A lot of people think that at 17 you don't shit about shit and you should shut up, but if but we stopped paying attention the hot asses in booty skirts or the Lil Wayne wanna be bloods and listened to some of these kids maybe we'd learn something.

For someone so "socially aware," talented (far beyond simple rap) and educated, he sure fucked-up a lot.

He was unfortunately a product of a very ugly time in rap and in the streets.
