Hmmm.. perhaps you're confusing him with someone else?

And he was a great rapper, at least better than the commercial rappers we got out now. But I admit, he's not better than some of the lesser known rappers.

The only song I've heard of his is "california love" and I saw this commercial for his dvd or something & whoa! He had this bandana on his head & I swear he looked like a rabbit. Whoa! It was so funny! HAhahahahahaa.

just like what kathleen said, you need to provide us with lyrics...and just because he has all these songs out doesn't mean he's still alive, artists make lots of songs, some were probably good but just "didn't make the cut" for their cds

tupac's lyrics -- '93
eminem came out ---- '95?
50 cent came out ---- 2000 i think?

Sorry bud but he died Sept 13, 1996. Eminem didn't come out til way after that... at least '98 or '99. And 50 came out 2003.

Eminem was out in 1995. His debut CD "Infinite" came out in 1995. Then he had the Slim Shady LP, the Slim Shady EP, and then hit it big with Marshall Mathers LP. But yea, since 50 cent and Eminem both started out underground, and since Eminem was kinda friends with Tupac, it would be possible that Tupac made a song saying their names before he died. But I don't know. Gotta see the lyrics first!

i was talking about how the person who made this topic was talking about if you noticed tupac's songs, i thought the person meant that it was proof of tupac still being alive

Geez, that's sad, especially seeing as how "California Love" isn't too great of a song. You need to expand your musical horizons.

oh my god, i never said the songs that didn't make the cut were talking about eminem and 50, i never said anything about it except in the post you quoted where i distinctly said that i did not know anything about songs that mention them
i already explained that i said it because i thought the author of this topic meant that tupac having songs out means that he's still alive, it started out "do you notice his songs" and it ends "i thought he was supposed to be dead" (those weren't exact quotes but you get the idea)
do i have to rephrase this a third time for you?

No, only one of the most influential music artists of our time.
And you guys. He's dead. He wrote a lot of music while he was in jail, I mean A LOT and he recorded some of them when he got out and throughout his lifetime. Now his mother and producers teamed up to take some of his recordings and create music after his death because they're sure this is what he'd want. Not to mention it also helps them make a little cash.
He's not alive, he's not chillin in Jamaica. That's absurd. The man's dead, may he rest in peace.

I completely agree. I can't stand 50.
I'm not too much of a tupac fan, I think people are just genorating songs to his voice. I stopped believing that he was alive when he didn't come back last year.

Probably don't even remember hearing anything about him while he was still alive.

50 Cent was out for awhile before he got popular...I'm not sure about Eminem. But maybe he is alive somewhere. You know when people find out that he is still alive; I don't know if they will be seriously pissed, or really happy.

You know, I don't know what the big deal about Tupac is.. But here's something that some die-hard fans made, First time I saw this, I knew it was fake:
www.benderboyz.com
EDIT: Nevermind, the site is down. It had a fake "CNN" article that said Tupac was seen in a mall in California, But it was fake, even though the site really did resemble the layout of CNN... here are a few links to myths and stuff:
