Rap music is rap music, no matter what coast it came off of.
Stop the violence - please. Like many people, I became interested in the music of Tupac Shakur not long after his murder. All Eyez On Me , is undoubtedly one of the best rap albums I've ever listened to - which makes the circumstances of his death all the more tragic. He is going to make the listener think - put them in his shoes, as it were. And for the better part of two hours, Shakur succeeds.
