For tonight, you take 2 packs of beer.
Huh ... Do you think about it?
2!
Two!
2Pac!
As the rapper of ...
Back in 95.
It was a single before being integrated to the double album 'All Eyez on Me' the next year.
You know, 2Pac ... It's this Californian rapper
from a family that had campaigned in the Black Panther.
The guy, he was roadie ... He was a dancer ...
Before starting rap.
This single, which has been co-written with Dr. Dre and Roger Troutman,
it marks the return of the rapper released from jail the same year.
We are still far of the original slogan of hip-hop.
#MeToo
Yeah, because the guy dwere thrown in jail for *** assault.
Since he could not pay his deposit,
The co-founders of the label Death Row who proposes to help him...
In exchange, of course, that he records albums
in his record company.
Well finally, it's going to be a pact with the devil which will end badly.
2Pac gets killed the following year in Los Angeles in a shootout.
And we do not even who is the murderer!
Originally, the song was for Dr. Dre.
For his album.
But when listening it, 2Pac absolutely wants to be on it.
And it's this remix which will be on the 2Pac album.
The 1st version of the song, that we can listen to the British copies of the album,
included a sample of Joe Cocker.
[* Sample *]
2Pac, it was a super efficient guy.
The verse of the song: written in 15 minutes.
The album? Registered in 15 days.
Take this Freddy Mercury!
There were 2 clips including 1 take in Compton, the town of Dr. Dre and 2Pac.
And in the spectators? A kid.
Kendrick Lamar.
For the 2nd clip, it is the best known.
It's the one that parodies Mad Max 3,
with the actor Chris Tucker and the funk musician George Clinton.
But before turning, Dr. Dre goes into tracking
in the Nevada desert.
He will write to his gf that he had fallen on:
"A bunch of dirty guys and all naked in the desert ".
He ends his letter by saying:
"Someone should invest in this mess,
and get some biff ($$$) on the back of these idiots,
because they told me that there would be at least
5,000 people around this ...
... giant wooden ?! "
Or how... in "Christopher Columbus" mode,
the rapper discovered - unknowingly - the very young festival ...
Burning Man!
2Pac
So, no ...
The Burning Man, it's not at all ...
a Ku Klux *** meeting ...
No...
No : it's hippie!
