All Eyez On Me
June 16th, 2010 by david brothers | Tags: rap, tupacToday’s Tupac Shakur‘s birthday. I was, and remain, a huge fan of him and his music. He definitely had an effect on me growing up, both in musical content, personal philosophy, and even just how he carried himself.
He was killed in Las Vegas on 09/13/96. From 1998 to 2006, I made it a point to skip school on that day. I’m a little older now, though, and I think I’d rather celebrate his life than his death. RIP.

me against the world is my fav song of his
still he rise
I dug some of his music/work, but much of what I saw of the man was not good.
Anyway, my first exposure to him was in Digital Underground’s “Same ol’ Song.”
