Eminem " He came he saw he won
- Thread starter Hurts
- Start date
Their motives were different though. Pac had a political agenda (at first, at least) and it was PAC HIMSELF who was controversial, not just his music... it was his music (a lot of 2Pacalypse Now), his videos (Trapped), his background (growing up around the Panthers), his conflicted personalities, his actions (shooting cops, getting shot), HIM.
With Eminem, he was not giving a fuck about what people had to say about him, but he was being offensive to get attention for himself, not necessarily for a greater issue. He had no agenda when he dropped Slim Shady LP and rapped about dumping Kim's corpse in the water or killing his classmates or whatever. He only started talking about political stuff later on in his career. He may have caught a case later on (was it gun possession?) but it wasn't even really that serious, he didn't shoot anybody and he didn't serve any real time. So his controversy was limited to just his music (and Kim, since she was slitting her wrists and shit, but that's on her).

And people are still making "Is Tupac dead or alive" threads 10 years after the first thread was made. Deal with it. The discussion would still be the same if the thread started 1 day ago. Don't let a lousy thing like the date separate one's intelligent perspective from another's intelligent thread.
I wasn't gonna play the age card, but your insistence on doing awkward things like replying to a thread idle since January and pointlessly quoting yourself and agreeing with yourself is pretty childish and immature.
Of course you don't disagree with yourself, otherwise you wouldn't have made your post. That was perhaps the dumbest thing anyone could've said, and if you had refrained from doing senseless things like digging up old-ass threads and quoting yourself and agreeing with your own words, then maybe I wouldn't have to stray from the topic. Grow up.
And if you want to talk about the topic at hand, re-read my original post here, since it seems like you paid more attention to my comments about the thread being old rather than reply to my opinion on the matter:
