2Pac God bless the dead lyrics on SCREEN

[@maxselwyn3538]

It actually pays homage to "Biggy Smallz". Biggy Smallz (1979 - 1994) was a Los Angeles rapper and songwriter known for the few collaborations he had with famed hip-hop producer Johnny J. He is the subject of Tupac Shakur's controversial tribute song “God Bless the Dead”. This person should not be confused with The Notorious B.I.G., who went by a similar name: Biggie Smalls

[@kns5700]

Makes since sense Christopher Wallace died after Pac. That confused me. Lol

[@NOSTIXVASQUEZ]

Tim Bigelow

[@boatfromvsg8062]

RIP Tim

[@angelicupstart23]

No. No it isn’t. It’s about Stretch’s friend Drik who went by Biggie Smalls. The song is dedicated to him

[@Vip-d9n5k]

@@angelicupstart23 this song is dedicated to biggie smallz a white teenage rapper who was shot before he could make it big, he was the notorious biggie smallz not B.I.G. I would really recommend listening to a few of his songs, they were pretty good for his time

[@daniellenogales5452]

("Don't worry if you see God first tell him shit got worst I ain't mad.") Probably the most badass line a rapper could say. It means his life was hard and fucked up living poor in the ghetto. Instead of God making it better it just got worse but he ain't mad. Can you imagine calling God out on that. 2 pac was real. Only a legend would say true things like this.

[@ericl3931]

Absolutely love that line. Imagine telling god to his face “bruh…it’s getting WORSE. But I ain’t mad” So legit

[@BIGWILL65IMPALA]

Pac was the best hands down

What do you mean "was the best"? HE'S STILL THE BEST

[@ayemy]

him and skee-lo

[@DirtyJamesUK]

Stylistically, no. But in reality, yes. I'm still discovering things that make me proud of him almost 30 years after his death. This man had such a heart. I was on a MJ video earlier with his fans saying he was the closest thing to Jesus. I said that was ridiculous. I wouldn't even say that about Pac. But Pac was the soul I thought of that was good at heart. That means A LOT! And it shone through all of his magnificent work.

[@tpxly6671]

I can listen to this track all day all years. 'God bless the dead'

[@Kimeikus]

*2Pac’s word choice makes it seems like he’s talking to you.* I feel like that’s the reason why some people underrate his lyricism. It blends in with what he’s saying.

[@RickyBeePhenomenal]

But....HE IS talking to YOU. His word play is powerful.

[@king.deandre]

Great point that was surely part of his genuis

[@DirtyJamesUK]

Yeah. His lyricism was very poetry based. Not just with the schemes, but more the content, and how it speaks to the listener. Even though I wasn't a fan of his style, I loved his classics and recognised that they were classics. He has so much well written material it's a joke. If you're not highly gifted, that would take AGES. I can assure you.

[@Veganphobic]

I can see my sister right now in heaven with a blunt and brew. Never knew that line would one day mean something to me

[@kteam4u]

I just finished listened to a few of my favorite Biggie songs and I tried listening to those I’ve never heard and it hit me hard as a freakin rock that Tupac was definitely light years ahead of Biggie so now I’m back here jammin to my man Pac!

Spoken like a true up in smoke pac head

[@S3verusMyG]

The Biggie mentioned in here was the original to don the name, he was killed in 94

[@johnnapadano1993]

The greatest rapper I have ever heard, the instrumental back round has a mix of so many emotions, the lyrics perfectly goes well with every beat, pure amazement.

[@king.deandre]

That 2nd verse 🔥 looking back in my year book all the years took half my peers

[@DrFabioz]

coolest voice ever at 1:59 "in my mind i can see it coming"

[@MaryJaneManson1]

No doubt! It gives me chills, you can straight up FEEL Pac's angst & frustration in that line, definitely one of the reasons God Bless The Dead is my favorite Pac song. For sure that struggle comes through in Pac's voice in this lyric.

[@mmtapez107]

[@bash2345s]

This song is actually dedicated to Tim Bigelow who's stage name was biggie smalls.

[@seancagney1369]

Biggie Smallz I believe, different spelling but there was another one you are right. I saw a video he did on youtube someone posted from the mid 90s.

[@angelicupstart23]

It’s dedicated to Drik. Who was also called Biggie Smalls. It’s not about a 15 year old white kid.

[@nikosofidemporas]

Tim Bigelow was not dead when this released. He changed his name to "Shadowcast" and had songs after 1994.

[@timothykangethe7700]

One of 2pacs Illest Flow on an Insanely great Beat 🔊🎶🎯

[@TERRORBEATSinstrumentals]

There has been much confusion about this song as 2pac and The Notorious B.I.G. were famously enemies; many 2pac fans interpret this as a sign of Shakur’s psychic abilities (either that or really weird coincidences). This is not, however, an intimidating mock funeral for Biggie, but rather an actual memorial of one of 2Pacs friends. There was another rapper (never really made it, so really just another guy in the struggle) who went by the name Biggie Smalls: a Thug-Life-affiliated fellow named Drik who grew up in Queen'sbridge with Stretch and died in the early 90s. A legend of hip-hop culture tells that the lesser-known Biggie Smalls was the reason that the more famous Biggie Smalls changed his name to the Notorious BIG as a favor at the request of his then-friend 2pac, who was trying to keep his boy Drik from being upstaged, whereas the change to Notorious BIG was actually motivated by a law suit from the makers of the film Let’s Do It Again which featured a character named Biggie Smalls.

[@googleinvestigations233]

Tupac was referring to the white boy "BIGGY SMALLZ", who was shot and killed in the early 1990's. Not the Notorious BIG.

[@nikosofidemporas]

No he wasn't. The guy changed his name to "Shadowcast" and has made songs under than nickname. Here is a 96 song kzbin.info/www/bejne/d56WoqJnfdyWmLM The song was intended to honor the memory of Big Dric, who was a close friend of Tupac and the Live Squad. and had nothing to do with the musical world, he was a graffit artist from Queens.

[@chrismurray1558]

Because he's not dead pac always talked about faking his death and in nevada it's legal to fake you're. Akil the mc is tupac in prison tupac talked about splitting his nose and growing his hair out and doing some crazy shit. Pacs homies even said that wasn't pacs ashes they smoked and what gives it away most is the autopsy report he wasn't 6'1 215lbs. Too many things point to him being alive than dead.

Such a sad song... It's about friends who died young. God bless and rest their souls. God bless all my friends who died young. Whether it was murder, accident or just natural causes or fate.

[@MMAGUY00]

This song is not for The Notorious B.I.G. This is for a guy called Drick, who was close friends with Streach and also was hangin around with 2pac. Drick was also called biggie smals but it was written biggy smalls.

[@01dyerm]

[@1969Makaveli]

All of yall are wrong Shock G says it in the 2pac documentary " THUG ANGEL: LIFE OF AN OUTLAW. If you got the dvd of this movie look up scene selection 25. Predicting Death. Shock G says in the interview... " Pac was a pre thinker makes you wonder how can he make a song ( GOD Bless The Dead) praising BIGGIE after BIGGIE died when PAC died first?" "Because PAC was a thinker like that he was always plotting, If i die this way put this out and if I die that way put this out. He was thinking, he wanted to cover all those bases. That`s game ain`t it? Whew, he was playing to win, he had a plan E, much less a plan B." By SHOCK G ( Tupac`s best friend and producer

Pac had an some sort of death complex. He knew he was going to die young, and that is why he grinded so hard. He was always hustlin, to make a name for himself and to make enough tracks for them to still come out, once he was gone. This is a song he wrote about Christopher Wallace, Biggie Smalls, because like he said he was his boy back a few years ago. He wasn't friends with him, but he never wanted him dead. He didn't want a East West rivalry either. He was always prepared for death.

[@black12345678ization]

Biggie Smalls (from NY) started using his moniker "The Notorious B.I.G." in 1992, before he even met 2Pac. This was before 2Pac had met or heard of B.I.G. as well. He wasn't signed with anyone and was just a small underground act at the time. This song was probably recorded in 94 (based on the fact that Stretch is still alive and Biggy Smallz died in 1994). This is before any beef between B.I.G. and 2Pac. Anyone who tells you otherwise is stupid, and probably telling you that 2Pac is still alive

[@surelock5921]
