Never liked Tupac all that much, he came off too much of a G, obnoxious and heated attitude that rubbed me the wrong way, and compared to other contemporary artists around the time he was seen as lesser in my eyes. Despite that I can't deny his talent and skills on the mic. He is so incredibly intense and his delivery is second to none. He melts mics like no other, especially in this song, which is a remix from his original Hellrazor.

He was also highly intelligent and it was always interesting to hear his stance on various political issues. For such a young age it was remarkable to see someone so educated and with so much life experience.

I remember watching a documentary about him where you followed him in the studio. His work ethic was very inspiring, and he could record song after song without ever running out of things to say. When his fellow rappers couldn't keep up, he cussed them out and called them lazy asses who was only in the biz for bitches and weed, lol. I guess that's just the way he was.
 


The perfect marriage between this song and the flat out madness that is MGS V is one of my favorite things ever, which is low key made even more moving by the fact that Bowie died like 4 months later. The Kojigod truly is a man among boys.
