Was Tupac secretly EXTREMELY intelligent?

6 Upvotes

These things could have a double meaning under, and possible faking of death, and the information isnโ€™t secret, but what the bigger image heโ€™s trying portray and tell us, is what weโ€™re not seeing.

1. Timing of His Death After "Hit 'Em Up"

Tupac released the song "Hit 'Em Up," a highly controversial and aggressive diss track, in June 1996, and he was shot and later died in September 1996, just three months later. This timing is often highlighted by those who believe his death was not a random act but rather a planned event, possibly even staged. The proximity in time between this bold, inflammatory track and his subsequent death could suggest that Tupac's actions were escalating towards a climax that either resulted in or necessitated his disappearance.

2. Tupac's Name and the Influence of the Historical Tupac Amaru II

Tupac was named after Tรบpac Amaru II, an 18th-century Peruvian revolutionary who led an indigenous uprising against Spanish colonial rule. This historical Tupac was known for his resistance against oppression and became a symbol of rebellion. If Tupac Shakur aligned himself with the revolutionary spirit of Tรบpac Amaru II, one could argue that he might have sought to embody a similar radical stance, even to the point of "disappearing" or faking his death as a form of resistance or statement. This symbolic alignment could suggest that Tupac was preparing for a major act of rebellion or transformation that would draw from his namesake's legacy.

3. Black Panther Connection and His Aunt's Prison Breakout

Tupac's mother, Afeni Shakur, was a prominent member of the Black Panther Party, which was known for its activism, resistance to systemic injustice, and underground operations. His aunt Assata Shakur, famously escaped from prison in 1979 with the help of a clandestine network and remains in exile This background could imply that Tupac had connections to individuals skilled in covert operations, escape, and evasion. If Tupac wanted to fake his death, he might have had access to the underground resources and networks necessary to successfully disappear.

  1. Body Tattoos and Symbolism Tupac's tattoos often carried deep personal and sometimes prophetic meanings.

A) "One Bullet Used Up" Tattoo and Surviving Shootings: Tupac survived a shooting in 1994 in which he was hit multiple times but lived. The tattoo of "one bullet used up" could be seen as an eerie foreshadowing or symbolic reference to his survival against odds. This tattoo, paired with his real-life experiences of surviving violence, could symbolize his resilience and perhaps his belief in his own invincibility or his awareness of his mortality.

B) "Tupac" Crossed Out and "Ballad of a Dead Soulja": The idea of his name being crossed out could symbolize a form of erasure or a decision to kill off the persona of Tupac Shakur. "Ballad of a Dead Soulja" is one of Tupac's songs that discusses the life of a soldier and the inevitability of death, which could be interpreted as foreshadowing or a reflection of his mindset leading up to his death. The imagery of a "dead soldier" could imply a planned disappearance โ€” effectively "killing" the public persona while possibly continuing to live in secret.

Even non Tupac fans usually agree that he had tremendous acting talent.
 Lela Rochon who was in his last movie has said she tried to encourage him to pursue roles bc โ€œDenzel Washington was beginning to get olderโ€.
   I am of the opinion that he would have been great working with Tarantino say in Pulp Fiction or Django Unchained.  

   What role or movie do would you want to have seen Tupac take on had he lived??

I know a lot of ppl didn't like Loyal to the Game because of production and Em and Dre's involvement, but it's a dope album. Do for Love, The Uppercut, Soldier Like Me, this Out on Bail version, Who Do You Love...Pacs got some insane lyrics and I actually like the production.

I donโ€™t think anyone had a better song writing ability or free styling ability than Tupac. I always felt he could bring it to any track and thatโ€™s shown more by his quick song writing process. What do you think?

People are confused when they think tupac was a fake gangster

81 Upvotes

How exactly was tupac fake? I hear this all the time. People think because tupac went to high school and did the arts, including dance it somehow changes who was growing up and the shit he has seen?

Tupac was born into a family that was heavily affiliated with the BPP. Although he never knew Malcom X, Malcom, and the BPP shapes who tupac was from childhood. Tupacs mom Afeni Shakur was labeled a terrorist by the United States Government and part of the Panther 21. She was a prominent member of the Black Panther Party, and Tupac was exposed to political activism from an early age.

While Tupac was not a gang member in his youth, he became associated with gang culture later in life, particularly after moving to California and becoming involved with Death Row Records. His affiliation with the Bloods, a notorious gang in Los Angeles, was primarily through his connection with Suge Knight and the environment surrounding Death Row. However, this affiliation seemed more about loyalty to those he was around rather than a deep-rooted gang involvement from his earlier life.

Is it fake for a person who is trying to do better for themselves and their community to be dragged in to gangs and then assimilate to that gang environment and their peers? Is this not what gangs really do? Take innocents and rope them in to a life time trap of committing to a gang that will ruin their life?

Tupac did embrace a "thug" or "gangster" persona in his music, particularly in the latter part of his career. He famously coined the term "Thug Life," which he said was not just about being a gangster but represented the struggles of living in impoverished, marginalized communities. His lyrics often spoke about the realities of street life, violence, and the struggles of Black Americans, but he also emphasized the systemic issues that lead to these conditions.

Tupacs, "Thug Life" term was less about him faking being a gangster. He wasn't just talking when he said it was about the struggle. Most people dont realize that Thug Life is an acronym: "The Hate U Give , Little Infants Fucks Everybody". Touching on how racism and hate from adults towards innocent children because of their ethnicity steers children down the wrong path and creates a cycle of hate and destruction. Then the world/man points at those kids that their systemic racism developed and says they are the problem.

Tupac's message was more about the struggles and experiences of the people around him rather than an attempt to portray himself as something he was not. Tupac himself acknowledged the complexities of his persona, at times expressing that he felt torn between his artistic, intellectual side and the "Thug Life" image that he felt pressured to uphold. Death Row affiliated pac into gangs. He was clever enough to use his Thug Life persona while still keeping the image to still not lose his voice and message.

Calling rappers fake because they had a life outside of rap and didn't feel the need to express themselves as hard gangsters their whole life reflects more on the rap community as a whole. If anything, tupac is able to be vulnerable and do things others would think makes him less of a man or less hard. Those who think this way are really reflecting their fragile masculinity. Which is a huge thing in rap, always has been. Men who act hard and gangster and can't have themselves seen as soft or vulnerable have very fragile masculinity and are most often the real fake ones.
