WESTAFRICA = Yeshua and Bachaveli

[Preach]

Look at this thread:

http://www.streethop.com/death/2309-while.html

I am 100% convinced. I sense both Bachaveli's ignorance and stubborness, as well as Yeshua's pseudo-intellect, re-arranging of facts to paint a supporting picture, and straight denial.

i would call it a pending investigation. these data are fresh to me. unfortunately, i don't have eric's experience in working them. i need to develop my own technique.

Nothing wrong with over analysing lyrics. People to this day are still over analysing Shakespeare's works. So why not Tupac's.

^Because Tupac is not on Shakespeare's level.

Sounds like some people on here don't want to give credit where credit is due.

Tupac is my idol and the man was a genius.

Having said that, SOFI is right that he was not on Shakespeare's level. Most people agree that Shakespeare was the greatest writer of all time, followed by Chaucer.

Tupac wasn't on Shakespeares level. Tupac studied drama at the baltimore school of perfoming arts. Tupac took what he learned from shakespeare to another level, a more modern one in a different genre. This is where anyone like sofi fails when they try to compare Tupac to shakespeare. Tupac was on his own level, he wasn't trying to be the Bard at all. Or maybe he was ...

When you make a statement like that, you're clearly inviting comparison between the two. Now, you're saying the two should not be compared.

If for once you want to actually sound like you know what you're talking about, it'd be a good idea to analyze Tupac's and Shakespeare's writing and show us evidence of Tupac using shakespearean style of prose, rhyme, and/or blank verse. In all honesty, I'm curious myself. I'm highly doubtful, though. At this point, I'm willing to say that E-40 is more "Shakesperean" than Tupac.

I am saying, why aren't people giving Tupac the same critical/poetic analysis as shakespeare gets. I am not sayin tupac's style is the same as ... It needs a different analysis. Completely rejecting different analysis's is like denying the totality of artistic limitations/boundaries.

I never said pac wrote like him. Tupac wrote nothing like the bard, which is why I said he took it to another level. The Bard wrote about love, tradgedy, conflict, war - so did pac, but in a different way. This is boring me explaining this, I would think you would know this already. The beauty of Pacs verse/prose is that he was able to convert what he was saying to appeal to and sound out the street.
