Loved his music, he was very talented and I've yet to hear anything that sounds half as good, as far as rap goes.

Not sure what kind of a person he truly was, I refuse to spend any time worrying about celebritys personal lifes.

Reguardless of this guys reasoning, he commited a crime and deserves to be punished. If this place is a community center, dedicated to doing good things, he had no business to deface the statue.

"Everywhere I go I find that a poet has been there before me."- Freud

Tupac was extremely intelligent, I wouldn't call him a messiah. But I think that his music and lifestyle were a reflection of what he knew- or at least what he felt [even if he/we never understood the true meaning]

His lifestyle and music was that of a live-your-life edge of your seat, kind of living. Where any day you wake up it's a good day, and survival/prosperity were key. It was an animalistic view of our civilized culture I think too many people don't bother acknowledging. If that weren't enough he always showcased the internal struggles with juggling civilized life with animalistic behavior- Which is just an extension of dealing with both worlds.

Agreed.

I think that Pac gets a bad rap from people who never actually sat down and listened to his lyrics. He really wasn't a "gangsta rapper" like a lot of his critics think.
