Soldier like Me

[LL COOL PAC]

hey guys i was just wondering if anyone else thought that the chorus that em sings on that song ( and black cotton for that matter) actually has nothing to do with the song? On soldier he is talking about himself not being a gangster but pac was a g?

 

[boss playaz]

pac was a g a rydah and a soulja but pac wasnt agangsta

 

[Tony Montana]

That's true and I hate the way he layers his voice on the Soldier chorus. He did the chorus in about 3 different pitches or what ever. Should have did his normal voice once. Just my opinion.

 

[cookies]

i thought pac luved gangstas

 

[Casey]

Em's hook on "soulja like me" is wack as fuck. black cotton is slightly better.

 

[Rigade]

He's talken bout that he aint scotch n some shit? lol but he sounds like michael jackson on that..

 

[RaIIn]

He's talken bout that he aint scotch n some shit? lol but he sounds like michael jackson on that..

he's talkin' about how his 'courage' doesn't come from a bottle or scotch......and yes he does sounds annoyin' on this hook..........then again some of the hooks off encore don't even rhyme.......

 

[Gh0stMan]

yeah em fucked it up 100% just listen to any solo edit ...

 

[Mr. Untouchable]

Lol...don't mean to diss any of y'all, but it seems your just picking something out just to diss Em or whatever (as per usual). But let's face it, he a millionaire and your not. Em did good with Pac's album, and unless you can't do a better job yourself, maybe you should shut the fuck up. Lol.

 

[DutchPac2]

B*llshit, u can hear it without knowin how to make it.
I don't like what Em did with Pacs shit, especially the infamous lines, they suck. It is not cause I wanna hate Em, he just f*cked the album.

 

[Mr. Untouchable]

I can do better then that fuckin clown you motherfucker and BTW dont tell me how to live my life just let me live cunt

Aight aight go write a letter to Afeni and prove it to us fucking clown.

P.S. don't hit me with all that 'you going through drama' bullshit, using 2Pac's quotes and shit...fucking fool lol.

Yeah. He changed the meaning of that song by putting the "I'm not a wannabe, I am Tupac Shakur". Eminem took the song and made it about what he wanted it to be about. i.e. saying that people are copying Pac, and that they ain't cool because they can only use burbon, scotch,etc to mimic Pac.

Yet, however, the real message of the song, was Pac being flattered by the amount of soldiers he got and willing to ride for him.
("Everywhere i see a soldier like me, everywhere i see....) wasn't meant to be a diss to his rydahs, but Eminem ruins that and makes it seem like Pac's some anti-social prick, upset that people are influenced and got love for him.

 

[boss playaz]

The board isn't hacked still so you might wanna watch the language or face a ban.

And Eminem even managed to sink beneath our low expections, producing the worst Pac album-to-date.

Another point: Eminem defendants also wanna say we hate it because 'Em is white'

Scott Storch is white, yet people give props to his 'Po Nigga Blues' remix,which shits on anything Eminem did on this album. So that's not an issue, either. Let's face it, we had low expectations for an Eminem produced album, and he somehow managed to do even worse.

I think Live is the worst album 2 date

 

[RaIIn]

sorry but maybe you should ban the real idiots like hellbound etc

why, when you're doin' nothin' but act like a child and throwin' tantrums pissin' ur pants 'cuz some ppl actually like LTTG..........and when there is disagreement you lash out like a tourrett's patient with a frozen brain and a paint can stuck up ur nose.................U produce a pac album then post it here and c how many ppl feel ur production.....quit bein' an ignorant ass and open ur mind to optimism........

 

[lostsoul420]

wen i first got LTTG album, of course the first track I listned 2 was Soldier like me and I skipped it as soon as I heard eminems chorus cuz I thought it was real shitty.

strangely enough tho, for sum reason the chorus dont bother me anymore and I think its one of the best songs on the cd.

and LTTG is a great cd, i think, and FAR from the worst pac cd to date. That would have to go to Nuu mixx clazzix or 2pac live.

I don't really consider Nu Mixx Classics a Pac cd, because we already have AEOM, so we can choose to keep what we already have, which is the original classic album. As far as L2TG, we got shitty remixes/voice alterations, being done to unreleased material that we were never given an opportunity to hear untouched.
