Ay, Shlomo – nice drop. You should drop in here at XXL more often, teach these cats a thing or two about syntax.

“Struggling is good, because it means that one is trying to make progress. Would you rather struggle or sit on a couch with zero prospects? A person with problems has an opportunity to defeat them. He has a chance to become victorious and creative a positive out of a negative. That’s the root of hip-hop.”

^ shit is the TRUTH, mayne. Real talk.

how could any one of you not know that Biggie was from Bed Stuy? Not Flatbush, Bed-Stuy. Also, 2pac went to a prestigious performing arts school in baltimore and then became a Blood at age 25 or something wtf. M.O.B. and blood shout outs on Makavelli, maybe you never noticed that either. a lifestyle he didn’t live? i’m that ridah, coming right beside ya, shoulda never fucked with me (that was him all the way, GTFOH). both could have had different lives, as could have many. people are complex and can’t be painted into one corner. Biggie and Pac both represented for the people around them, expressed their emotions in different ways (a violent story is a way of letting out anger), took some liberties with language and their story telling (and told some truth too), each rapped their asses off in different ways, and people weren’t fact checking their lyrics–they were too busy FEELING those songs, those lyrics, those PERSONALITIES, those real people as well as their fly, great personas. cartoon characters like rick ross and mr. autobiography curtis jackson ruined hip-hop for you young folks. the Me Against the World album–can’t you feel the sun coming up when you’re sitting on the porch after being up all night going living all the thoughts portrayed on that album? Life After Death–can’t you see every song in your mind’s eye and get right into B.I.G.’s imagination, and feel like you’re on top of the world but the brought down by the ultimate stress and emptiness he conveys on You’re Nobody Till? f all yall

U ain’t done the research homie yeah his mom was a teacher but she was a single parent and 1 wage doesn’t go far plus the fact he grew up in Flatbush around the late eighties early nineties when Crack and murders was at a all time high u couldn’t be meek growing up around that.He had to come out of his door didn’t he? I know for sure I wouldn’t have wanted to have grown up around that.Listen to Things done changed my friend

a yo check biggies background b4 yu say this was his struggle. check where he came from. cuhz dude left home when he didnt have to and went toa world he didnt have to. biggie had a good life set 4 him when he was a born. he was born into a well off fam n just decided to leave that 4 the streets. stupid fuck if yu ask me. but its cool tho i respect what he said cuhz it was the struggle of his people. but i respect pac more cuhz he said his raps aint always about him they about his people. at least pac didnt try to pass off a life style he didnt live
