Facts ❤️☮️💯

[@williamsummerson1204]

Knox is the realest reactor on KZbin. I grew up in the poor and violent streets of Compton in the 80's and 90's. I got the privilege to meet tupac before he passed away, it's something that I will always remember. He was a poet, lyricist and the single greatest and most important artist to me . I miss him everyday. 🙏😪

[@amymccullough4396]

Damn... Meeting Pac or being lucky enough to see him perform, has been my dream since I was 11 yrs old..It's something I'll never be able to do...Bless you on the experience that millions of us would kill for... That's amazing..RIP 💔🙏🏼🕊️

[@kmc19xx59]

Couldn't of said it better myself ​@@amymccullough4396

[@iamechelon5752]

The deepest most passionate rapper with the most unique voice.

[@officialasa]

Talking abt the war on drugs and the socioeconomic underpinnings of black crime is soooo cool. Dude was a sociologist

[@AlcaneXRapper]

Hey Asa, big fan! You flow like a crazy mf! 😂

[@Lock_9]

This why 2pac was a legend R.I.P to the king of west coast

[@shaheempashua6924]

I'm from South Africa 🇿🇦👊 and I can confidently tell you he is king of the rap game the only other artist I put alongside Pac is Lowkey an activist and rapper from the UK he is conscious af but lyrically gifted

[@blaze3fire]

And beyond, Pac reached the world for sure.

[@shaheempashua6924]

@blaze3fire definitely I'm from South Africa 🇿🇦 born in 81 I can tell you Tupac had a commanding influence on our streets Real life gangsters had Thug Life on their bodies they had Pac they had the AK they had the cross on the back the panther Cleopatra tatooed on their bodies most not ever knowing what the panther represented or who Cleopatra is but becuase Pac had it they had it You could not talk shit about pac in certain places or you'll literally be ended It's crazy when I sit and think about it😅

[@kmc19xx59]

Honestly the more i hear you break down songs like this that allow you to flash your intellect the more i hear that qoute from a great man "a truly educated man can never be a racist" and you are living proof of that statement being factually correct 💯❤️☮️

[@crystalkendrick9500]

He should still be living-as Em said.

[@Lightbringer04]

Tupac is Eternal 🙌

[@wheelycody275]

Knox, your passion when it comes to Pac and speaking on these issues is infectious❤

[@blaze3fire]

💯

[@addiegabriel9333]

I also think the fact that he says “some things will never change” after the sung words “you’re my brother, you’re my sister” is important and intentional.

[@austonkn]

That's why he's the goat

[@HeatherBenedix-y6r]

This song and dear mama are two of my favs. Teardrops and closed caskets is pretty relevant today as well

[@papadrow5302]

I agree and also the good die young very powerful

[@bbkintanar]

oh my god one of my childhood songs. such a beautiful song that brings back so many memories. thanks for doing this track!

[@wanbanteinamLyngdoh]

2pac The Greatest Rapper Of All Time ❤

[@gratuitoustv4815]

The way you broke it all down!!!! OMG!! You're a wise man

[@brianluna2808]

Thats Bruce Hornsby he sampled on piano. Song is called The Way it Is

[@DiDiana55]

Yes

[@rubenrubio9786]

DAMN!!! You are so on point to react to this today. So crazy how it is still TRUE to this very day! The OG Political Rapper TUPAC!!!!!

[@SuperMom-777]

💯💯 🗳️

[@moniadm7316]

Thank you Knox for all you do. In silence I am following you for a while. Tupac hits home. I am an Italian, as a teen in Italy in early 90s, listening Tupac and finding ways for translating his lyrics from English to Italian (there was no google!) was a way to feel the connection to the world. Music unite and we will always needed. And Tupac was a wonderful lyricist. Shout out to all musicians and in these days the independent one: thank you! Indeed musicians bring to light empowerment and solutions. ❤

[@mikemorgan8144]

I from Wales and I love poetry Dylan Thomas being one and PAC❤

[@crystalkendrick9500]

Knox I’m speechless. Wow. Beautiful. Love you Knox and Love and miss u pac.

[@KnoxHill]

RIP to a legend

[@323Hitman]

I was literally listening to this like 3/4 hours ago.

[@diaundra12]

One of the greatest! R.I.P Tupac

[@Skunz]

It would have been amazing to see Pac and Bruce perform or write a version of this track that highlights both versions. Grew up loving Bruce and and Range’s version and then Pac came out and I was obsessed with his music. When Changes dropped I was hooked from the first day I heard it. Miss Pac and his vision. To me he was the MJ of Hip Hop/Rap. The messages in his music are so deep.

[@Kingnxdoor]

You definitely put lots of respect and love on his name bro, PLEASE breakdown Tyler’s new album soon!🙏🏼

[@joshuastickley2796]

Always loved this song!

[@KiaMeFreeDD7349]

Thank you for doing this one today! Sending ☮️&💜 from 🇨🇦!

[@suerich2837]

I am glad I found your channel. You are on point. Thanks KZbin for the recommendation

[@saturnkun8209]

This is exactly what I needed today. Thanks for all you do, Knox

[@randallgamino2600]

Knox, you are always on point with reacting to a meaningful track of the moment. One of many reasons why Tupac will always be relevant. 🙏

[@snapbacktoreality_1]

Thanks so much for making these rap breakdown videos man, I would be clueless as to what the rappers are spittin without these videos.

[@Soldiergraham84]

Thanks for all you do knox

[@kennethwalls341]

One of my favorite 2pac songs and was listening to it earlier

[@suevick637]

Thank you, Knox. ❤ He hit me hard at the beginning. Every morning, I ask myself the same question. My usual answer is, not today. This has been my life since my husband passed away. That will be 4 years ago on the 16th of this month. After a 33+ yr marriage, time will not lessen that pain. ❤ I remember hearing this when my kids were young. ❤

[@ChanelStuff]

Hang in there my friend. There will be a time when you're with him again, but I believe he would agree with me when I say that he wouldn't want you to join him yet. Live life. Do things you've always wanted to do. Enjoy your kids if you have any. You'll meet your maker when it's your time. Don't force the issue. Much love. Sending you hope and peace❤ #RIP2Pac

[@lisakaufman7366]

I've never heard that song before. Thanks for playing it. I really s perfect for today.

[@pattik789]

You just made me feel the best I have all morning! Thank you, Knox.

[@KnoxHill]

Thank you for being here 🙏

[@finally1111]

THANK YOU KNOX

[@tondrabrown7704]

One of Many 🔥 🔥! He's still my favorite rapper!!

[@theavengers.]

Love the legend and his music since young ❤

[@kostaadin8927]

Great choice, reminding people of what is great music with meaning is like

[@ceciliasundborg8672]

It’s kind of crazy that We still talk about the same struggles.. Sending love from 🇸🇪☮️

[@JAGplayz]

I love songs that are still relevant today. Thank you Knox!

[@KnoxHill]

Thank you for supporting!

[@jams_world81]

Pac was cooking on this song, one of my favorite of his, true artist, him and Zac (rage against the machine) lyrics are still truth to this day!! They always trying to give you lessons in their music

[@EclipseStorm923]

If I could, I would like to recommend Polo G’s rendition of song, Wishing For A Hero. Polo took Tupac’s message and ran with it. Great song.

[@amymccullough4396]

When Pac says "Cuz both black & white, are smoking crack tonight" He's simply but deeply saying that, ADDICTION DOESN'T DISCRIMINATE 💔🙏🏼🕊️💯

[@baseballmaniac5160]

"I'd love to go back to when we played as kids, but things changed. And that's the way it is." So true. RIP to the king 🕊. I wish we could go back to the simple times, where us as kids didn't worry about all these things we worry about today. Pac is a legend for a reason. Take notes.

[@faleupolu]

Your reaction make me happy every time. God bless brother

[@chelseahaley8350]

Omg! I love this so damn much! Tupac pretty much raised me! And how ironic that yesterday I randomly requested that u do The Way It Is by Bruce Hornsby and the Range, and u do this today! If ur unfamiliar, please, please, please do a reaction to it!! 🙏 8:27 I guess ur familiar! 😅 Probably should have watched the whole video before commenting! Lol

[@Jafar-dr6to]

Night Shield has stated explicitly in the rez that it’s broken dreams. That there’s a lot of untapped genius and talent on the rez. It’s the same concept pac talked about

[@peaches65835]

Awesome song. As a non-American I don't think Tupac was a prophet of the future. He just had his eyes and ears open and wrote about it honestly.

[@AlcaneXRapper]

Yep, this hits different! 🎉 R.I.P Pac. 😊✌️

[@Flawl3sSxChix]

2Pacs song samples Bruce Hornsbys The Way It Is and it amazing to hear both songs cause they both speak on the same struggle from different perspectives.

[@rbailey3309]

This is the first time listening to Knox and I can tell he is an old soul! We need more creators like him!

[@kinglui3422]

Mad respect, Knox! God bless America! We'll be alright

[@satoristeve]

Been waiting to hear your take on this one for a while Knox. Thanks for this. Excellent reaction to one of the best tracks in history.

[@mutsumaji]

It was the only song I could listen to during a long period of mourning after the death of my best friend. We adored hip-hop.

[@Zinetha]

Facts. Bars. The truth.

[@gratuitoustv4815]

Your voice!!! Your voice Knox!!!!! It oozes rap, you'd make an incredible rapper, especially if you rap the way you talk, not faster. It's so calming and comforting.

[@gratuitoustv4815]

I just realised that your voice is similar to Aaron Paul's aka Jesse Pinkman from Breaking Bad

[@BobRyansaul]

War in Middle East line, always current and relevant 😢

[@blaze3fire]

Definitely a power in solidarity. I felt it, but would also listen to this track to 'change' my frame of mind because Pac was always fighting for us and injustice, so I felt that it was a message for me to do the same. I did a report on this track on my high school history class, about things that were currently taking place then. This song has been so impactful to me and my music throughout many years and you reacting to it rn is in perfect timing. Thank you. I'm so happy you're reacting to this now as well because, there are still many who didn't get to experience his music like we did. I know you were worried about doing the reaction justice but you covered it beautifully. This track has a message with every line, all important imo, and you covered it. I also appreciate how you explained how things were then, like the Mobil phone being something that the rich had, as the younger generation growing up in this day and age most likely wouldn't know. Some things will never change makes just the same amount of sence as things will never be the same, ín the sence that a lot of what he was talking about hadn't changed still, while some has in comparison to gang violence, but the only change about the drug epidemic is its gotten worse and racial profiling is about the same, though I think more is hidden to make it look like it's gotten better for those who don't know. Thank you again.

[@jimstebbins8273]

Yo! One of my favourite tracks ever. Hits so hard.

[@ГеоргийПобедоносец-ш9ц]

🙌🏻Hello from Moscow! ✌🏻 love 2Pac❤️‍🔥

[@AngB517]

Well, it's one of his more prophetic soothing songs when the anxiety is real. 💗💟

[@Latinowill]

His rym is so good. He speaks truth and raw uncensored. I'm young but I love the old rawness

[@brendalampley4215]

Excellent breakdown KH‼️💯💯🔥🔥🎯🎯🙌🏾🙌🏾✌🏾❣️RIP Pac 🕊️💫

[@anizakaryan505]

I like all his songs, he's amazing, one and only in my opinion not only in HIP HOP. Here in Armenia, in my country, we love and still listen his 🎶

[@bwauditor]

The last verse in this song is one of the best ever. Goosebumps every time

[@ksea18]

The only place I ever come for reactions. You're the best brother

[@devonjacobs1454]

You are truly brilliant musician,that breaks down rhymes the way you do .keep it .

[@ondrehayes3886]

Thanks Knox for reaction to 2pac my favorite rapper of all time

[@ВасилПопов-н3м]

We need more of Pac. More reactions because he has so much to say and we have so much to hear and talk about... GOAT!!! And maybe reaction in Spanish if you are fluent...it will be interesting:)

[@FYSITL]

My jamz Knox❤

[@royal_eternal]

Now this is what i call reaction! 2pac like MJ in them dances... He the greatest in the rap industry!

[@missshirley9893]

Anytime people equate Pac = Biggie...I'm like... Not even close! Tupac was a phenom

[@latishabuckner8231]

I went to Alabama State University (HBCU) and Tupac came up alot during discussions in african american humanities class. Alot of things he spoke of and rapped about are unfortunately still relevant. Its a shame we lost him so young.

[@f94_fa21]

2pac resist the temptation is so deep song & underrated song

[@blaze3fire]

Very relevant to now as well!

[@LuiShirosagi-b8v]

2:18 this line....Pac's too real. this entire song just hits everyone hard

[@M3WT-va]

I used to work with an old school black man, he became a really good friend of mine while we were there and we talked a lot about race relations and music and this is the main song that we bonded over. The last day that I worked with him this song came on in his car on our way to lunch and we just sang it together, unity between two men who have seen some shit and want peace between people. Pac wanted everyone to come together and for the country and by extension the world to be better. R.I.P. to a true legend. We could really use a Tupac today.

[@MyDestiny1104]

Definitely!!!

[@deeWILLrise]

Bro i was listening to this the other day. This was slapping had to add it to the playlist

[@zackkullis5555]

Brilliant reaction my friend! I absolutely LOVE Tupac. Listening to him helped me understand and view the rough reality while I was living in an overwhelmingly white and conservative area. Tupac took me out of my whitewashed surroundings and conservative-washed news to see the reality.

[@goatfather5711]

You talk sense, That's what we need right now, some common sense.

[@Astral_thee_God]

4:50 They say the more things change, the more they stay the same Either way, I voted this morning because I deserve to have more rights than my 80 year old grandmother, the very rights that her generation faught for, or more rights than a literal _gun_

❤

[@missshirley9893]

That's just the way it is!

[@theculturedgentleman3699]

This is a perfect song for TODAY!!

[@VANDALIZM413]

2PAC == GOAT 🐐 HANDS DOWN! NO CONVERSATION NEEDED! MIC DROP ❤

[@MattyGeneric]

*Listening to this with my Thug Life hoodie💪🏻*

[@nmbr1slayer]

I remember hearing this for the first time as a kid in the back seat of my brother's dodge neon with 2x12 subs banging. Pretty sure half the screws, nuts, and bolts loosened from how loud he banged the music he liked. Luckily, I can still hear....a few more years of that and I don't know man.

[@HeatherBenedix-y6r]

I’m hoping today irons out some issues that really mess with my basic human rights. Honestly not just mine, many peoples, I’m just ready to thrive not just survive.

[@Gogida]

HotTake- This the best tupac song

[@therefixframeuproduction1093]

Good pick Knox, if possible go find 🔥STAKES IS HIGH = De La Soul🔥from the album Stake is High {1996 Tommy Boy Records}

[@KnoxHill]

Ay love me some De La Soul

[@Dknow80]

Pac was way ahead of his time... Back in the days, and even NOW... And the next 20 years... Uncanny.. Pac Is a GOAT...

[@Kneelin83]

Love ya knox . Peace and love 💖

[@sheascott8818]

Every vote counts! Pac was way too before his time, you wanna talk about profit…well there you go!!!🙏🏽

[@crystalkendrick9500]

Go Vote Everyone

[@josemontiel2069]

One of the realest songs ever

[@itsakittyting]

As a white European I became aware of american discrimination because of Tupac's music; at first it just sounded like a bop, but then when I started to really listen to the lyrics wow - plz remember back in the day we didn't know what went on over there other than what Hollywood showed us

[@Mannie-v3x]

Check out "I wonder if heaven got a ghetto" ( hip hop version ) Pac wrote it in 1992

[@chaunceycrosby517]

Man.. I was a teen when this came out. Live in indiana and this hit me even then. Pac opened a window into his world. Let us see what people go through. Spoke on the dark side of that gang life. Spoke to all of us about the hatred in the hearts of men. He wasn't just a smart dude. He knew how to talk so EVERYONE could understand his point of view. Yeah I'm a white guy, and I've never lived a gang lifestyle. I have however lived broke asf, wondering if I would eat that day. Having my lights and heat shut off cause I couldn't pay. Living out of a car, which I only still had because it was wrecked and they didn't want to repo it. Do I feel like I know the struggle of the ghetto? No, not really. I've been poor though, and I can relate to what pac is saying here because I have had a glimpse of it. He paints a very vivid picture of the life style with his words. I was flabbergasted when Rodney king was beaten. I didn't understand what he had done to be beaten by the police like that.. it was then that I realized how dangerous racism is. From both sides. I truly hope we can make that change. It's time for all of us to take a look in the mirror and get ourselves right before we step out in the world and interact. Peace and love.

[@KristinaLovesBooks]

I remember this song from the 90’s.

[@mukelanizondi6378]

Memory lane hit so deep when u think about people u were with during those times and how great life was then
