All I Gots To Say Is When He Came On the Seen, To Everyone That Didnt Know Him, He Was A Thug. The Only People Who Should Truely Be Able To Judge Him As A Thug Should Be His Closest Friends And Co-Workers!

Ok, let’s come out with some wisdom… LOL
1) Tupac wasn’t neither a Blood nor a Crip. Anybody agree?
2) He was someone who used to hang out with gang members; a thing that did not make him a banger for sure. Anybody agree?
3) In the end: he was a great rapper. Anybody agree?
If y’all agree upon the above-mentioned three points, we ought to close this topic… LOL

Hell Yeah, this topic should be closed. What difference does it make now whether he was a thug or not. The important thing is all that he gave to rap/hip hop and minorities in general. He took everything to a whole new level and spoke about issues that really mattered in our world. He was deep and intelligent enough to analyze things like police brutality and racism while still selling millions of records. His fans are still going strong seven years after his death or supposed death (whatever you believe). That is exactly why people like Ja Rule and 50 cent try to align themselves with him. I hope that people will look beyond all the BS to hear the message that he was trying to bring and more importantly to start thinking about things that the white America is trying to ignore or keep secret. Right now there few rap/hip hop artists that are saying anything worth listening to. Thug, poet, momma's boy, actor, social activist.... whatever way you want to remember him... just remember him and what he accomplished as well as what he represented.

MAN THIS THREAD NEEDS TO END!!! GO TO THE TUPAC FANSITE OR MAKE ONE UP SOMEWHERE ELSE AND TALK ABOUT IT...

Tupac was so much of a thug, my assisstant has a picture with him when she went to Mexico. She was hugging him and when she put her arm around his waist, her hand covered the T in his THUG LIFE tatt, so it looked like it said HUG LIFE. Now her mom(white) thinks that black man her daughter took a picture with was a nice man because of that...LOL...

THUG OR STUDIO GANGSTER???

I think Pac was a "thug" in and out of the studio. L.A. turned him out and he spit thug venom into the mic and spoke it into existence and lived and ultimately died by it. To what degree of thug, or no thug is a matter of opinion, but he'll always be a legend.

First all a lot of you people act like you know pac, it shows with all the different opinions yall have you dont know him. Pac never claim he was with any set. So dont think he was in any gang. I think Pac consider himself a thug the way this world would not accept him as a blk male so he fought back they way he knew how. The way he fought back was thuggish. I think a lot of you people are dumb and only liked him cause you feel he was gangsta or a thug. But you dont choose to know him as a person. He was very creative and smart. I am tired of hearing Pac was the best cause he was a str8 up gangsta or thug you dont have to be that way to be real. Dont get me wrong I think Pac had a nice flow on beats and great charismas. But lyric wise he was not the best to me.

some of this i cant agree with like when u said we act like we know him. why do we have to act like we know him to hae an opinion? just like you expressed yourself about how you feel about him, thats how we do it. the only way i can learn about the man is through his music and books. of course he wansnt the best lyrically because pas wasnt a lyrical rapper. he was mostly hardcore rap. there's a big difference to me. but then again...thats just my opinion....

some say Tupac was a Gangster
some say Tupac was a Studio Prankster
some say Tupac was Thug Life
some say Tupac was Hug Life

I think he was a man.

whats a man? its a person who refuses to get pushed, because if you let someone move you an inch, they will move you a mile, and Pac didn't go for the Okeydoke NEVER. So obviously when he wasn't famous, he wasn't thuggin' or being a hoodlum, he was studyin, rappin', dancin', doin' what lotsa kids SHOULD be doin instead of gangbangin', but since he's got the Hood INSIDE him, being raised by firm black family (and I'm talkin Black Panther, REAL POWER, REAL STRATEGIC minds...), when fame dropped a load on him what did he do? He smiled and covered EVERY punch he got.

Y'all know he popped a cap on cops. and he was famouse already. He didn't do it for fame or money, he did for straight being a man. Damn cops played him like a fool, but he defended his sheeit and he did something that all you gangbanging dumb, deaf and blind punx should be doing. "You pull a trigga ona nigga but you scared to pop a cop". While most of y'all are cowards, Tupac was man.Gangsters aint SHEEIT. Thugs and SHEEIT.

What I am saying some people on this site do act like they know pac and most are just fans. Now I know they are some real niggas on here who knew about him and the whole thing. But most people on here or saying things that they have no proof of. To say pac was in the bloods or crips or talk how he was you cant speak on a man you dont know personally. Only thing we could really talk about is his music cause thats what we know. But to say personally things about dude how he acted, and how he chilled aint right cause people dont know him like that. What get me about most people on this site is they see clips videos or what the media shows them and they swear they know dude. I am just saying why try to have a opinion on something you dont know about. We know his music we heard it which is true. But have any of yall chilled with pac and knew him as a person what he was really about?

2Pac had many tatoos, and one of these tatoos was MOB, which stands for money over b****es. But I also heared that it stands for member of bloods! What meaning did it have for Pac???

MOB(Member.of.Bloods) was related with Suge Knight and Club 662. On a dial pad of a cell phone or a phone 662 stands for M.O.B. and thats Member of Blood. So in other words Club MOB.

MOB (Money.Over.B*****s) was related with Tupac and oiginal ThugLife Group and the oginal Outlawz.

You guys are obsessed with pac . nothin he ever did made him a " thug" he was a back ground dancer for digital underground. If you watch the thug angel video it show's pac when he was like 17 and he was hella soft and sayin not to call women "the B word" then it fast forwards to when he hit big and he yellan "B***** aint ish"! that my friend is fake.


but hey he was a great rapper!

Tupac was not a thug Tupac was a very smart hustla Tupac new that if he rapped like he was a thug, acted like a thug and portrayed himself as a thug young niggas would eat his shit up he rapped about shit he new people would buy. like he always rapped about killing biggie but biggie died after him, he always talked about robbing mobb depp but he never did, Tupac started off rappin about stuff like black power and going back to Africa he just changed his style because he knew what would sell. Most rappers like fifty cent and the doggpound and all these other rappers talking about all this shit they did when they was on they grind aint never hung on no blocks like they talk about. Hardly any of them have ever killed anybody because it aint that many killers in the world. Tupac was one of those people he is my favorite rapper but all that shit about Pac being the realest nigga ever aint true Pac was just an actor he acted like a thug so everybody thought he was a thug he only did it to make money off of it like all the other rappers do

I agree with you about 2pac but then again I did not know him personally so I cant say if he really was a thug or not. But I kind of thought it was all a act to sell records. But I must admit he had some heart. But the part about there is not a lot of killers in this world I dont agree. With the war going on and thousands dying I would say thats a lot of killers. And as for the streets people get killed every day and even every few seconds just like now somebody just got killed as I sit here to write this. LOL! Not to say that thats funny but you get my point. I would say most the rappers today about 99.99% aint killers. But Im sure some are I would say mostly them underground cats are. Well at least they are more believeable.

Pac was not a thug Pac was a smart intelligent hustler. He hustled yall into believing he was a hardcore gangster. Pac had never been to jail until he started rappin, he tried to sell crack but the drug dealer he sold for took hisdrugs back because he did not know what he was doin. Pac tricked yall into believing he was gangsta but Pac was just smart. He would make a statement like Im a thug not because I want to rob u but because im a strong black man and dumbies like yall would believe that stuff a thug is a nigga that wants to rob u and wants u to be scared of him. Pac just knew what to say to make young niggas lookin for a rolemodel follow every thing he said. Pac created a fantasy world for yall to live in and for him to make money off of. He talked all this stuff about killing niggas but u cant kill niggas like he talked about and never see jail. When other people do this yall call them bustas and wannabes but when pac does this yall call him the realest nigga that ever live. Pac aint no realer than Jarule or Lil' Bowow or Petey Pablo but he knew what to say to make yall think he was. Im not nockin pac because i like pacs music too but at the same time i never let him trick me into believin he was everything he said he was. Pac was an actor and he was reall good at it.

Man, like this other dude said, a lot of people here act like they knew him. I know I didn't for sure. All I know is that me and a lot of my homeis, from italian americans to blacks to jews, had/has love from him. EVERYBODY could like him, and relate to some of his lyrics, white black yellow or green or whatever. I've always thought it was quite funny tho, how he became the "great hero on the westcoast" considering he first came up as "MC New York". lol
