Why Pac Remains the GOAT!
Since we just celebrated the greatest of all time rapper's birthday about a lil' over a week ago, I figured it would be fitting to talk about a story I came across yesterday on some of the hip-hop sites. The government has acknowledged that Tupac's, "Dear Mama", off one of the top 5 hip-hop albums of all time, Me Against the World will be preserved in the Library of Congress. If this were to happen, he would be only the third emcee to have such happen. The other two members of the hip-hop world to achieve this are Grand Master Flash and Public Enemy. There are also reports that a movie is in the works on the controversial life of Tupac, who obviously was a very misunderstood individual, but that was really brought on by Tupac himself, but that is a whole different story in itself. Point being, getting your music put into the Library of Congress does not happen very often and just goes to show the timeless music catalog that Tupac created, well deserved honor in my opinion.
