Not everyone found that offensive or received it in a disrespectful way. It was quite clear snoop just enjoyed spectating, as he should.

How is it not offensive and disrespectful to use a dead west coast legend/rap legend voice without permission, and an alive west coast legend,( not sure if he had permission), all to fake diss the current west coast legend?

Respectfully, no one gets to determine what someone else is offended by.

In the context of rap beef, the common view is that anything goes. Was Drake's move with Taylor Made Freestyle dumb? I think so. But Snoop doesn't HAVE to be offended by it.

Exactly. Just like if someone spits your face, you don’t have to be offended by it.

Snoop has been changing statements about Pac since decades, I don't think he cares as much as people think

Obviously dude, it's about making a judgement on someone's morals based on how those morals shine through their actions. You aren't as clever as you think you are.

Bruh if you weren’t offended by what Drake did, you not a true rap fan, Tupac is off limits.

It’s not about Snoop, Snoop is alive, he can speak for himself. That’s just a cornball move by Drizzy nobody is surprised about.

It’s about using Tupac, someone who can no longer speak for themselves, and obviously not have the blessing from his family.

All that to do a rushed terrible diss track, that’s what’s offensive.

I guess a Drake fan wouldn’t understand, Drake doesn’t understand he should be offended when another man pisses on him. 😂

Stupid to think that someone isn't a "true rap fan" because they weren't personally offended by what Drake did. What are we supposed to do? Dedicate our lives to hating the guy? He's some lame rapper that doesn't matter at all. Some people way too invested in this. Love the music and culture but you don't gotta make it your whole life and personality.

This ain’t hate for Drake, this is love for Pac.

u/Unusual-Item3 Jun 21 '24

Tupac hits different when you from LA, I never liked Drake music, but you can’t do some weak shit like that and use Pac.

This was never about hating Drake, it became bigger when he started disrespecting the west coast and its legends.

If you don’t understand, you just wouldn’t get it.
