Tupac Song Selected For Vatican Playlist

Yeah boy! One of the reasons he is one of the GOATS.

Well if thats the case wheres the Lil Wayne, Brittany Spears, U2, Elvis, Black Eyed Peas, Jay-Z song?

What he's saying is, Rakim might be a better mc than Pac, but he's not going to go near a Vatican playlist because he never sold 6 million records off one album. Don't act like popularity isn't a factor. You really think Talib Kweli would have a shot at this? How about Willie D? Exactly.

Norf said or not and. IMO, that makes it sound like popularity is the main/only factor. Make no mistake about it, Popularity is a factor, but there have been plenty of popular mc's, but it was Pac who was chosen.

Interesting story.

Duh? of course popularity is a factor but this is the vatican not XXL magazine. The point i'm making is they have a pool of "pop"ular artist to choose from and they chose Pac. I think his popularity actually plays the 2nd reason he was selected. Popularity wasn't enough for him to be selected.

Popularity may not have been THE factor, but it's definitely A factor. Just like President Obama has "In Da Club" by 50 on his playlist.

they didn't choose not fake ass nas or krazy-ONE...

Nas & KRS >>>>> 2Pac >>>>>> 95% of the MC's you bump

That's hilarious because Pac never released a dud while he was alive and KRS has a dozen of them and Nas is working on his dozen as we speak.

C'mon Pounds, I know you don't feel that way just because of that. Obama was easily the best man for the job given our options.

So you're saying that Pac never had a subpar song? That's bullshit. You're just playing favorites.

And BTW, Changes (the song on the Vatican's list) wasn't released until after he passed.

Regardless of how the song got chosen, its a timeless masterpiece.

I totally agree, It's one of my fav songs. I was just adding my thoughts to the story.

lol...is there any way to ban this bunny??

dude says some of the most randomly stupid shit I've ever heard...you've got to ask yourself is this silly rabbit serious or has he been smoking too many carrots again... :albino:

only he knows!

back to the subject good for Pac man...he deserves any honor he gets! he truly was one of the GOATS and a LEGEND!

Its cool. Even the song that was sampled in it is cool. The Way It Is by Hornesby (sp?). The piano solo in it is tops.
