“He was reading all these books, his raps were like poetry and all that, it makes you want to be better–at every level. Because I didn’t graduate high school, but now it’s like I want to go back to school. [*applause*] I was six when Tupac passed. My momma, she’s from Compton, so I grew up off of West coast music. So, Tupac– I’ve been hearing about Tupac, Snoop Dogg, and everybody but, it was like after he passed, I started seeing more of like the posters and all that… When I got older, and started really listening to it [Tupac], it was like ‘oh, he’s really talking about stuff that I relate to’. He’s really talking about the black culture, you feel me? Not even about the west coast… Some people don’t have no father figures in their life, some people look at Tupac as their father figure, and they apply that to their life…”“He was reading all these books, his raps were like poetry and all that, it makes you want to be better–at every level.
