Did you ever notice how cute Jorma Taccone is?
I adore Jorma and Andy; I think they are completely adorable... I think Jorma may have Andy a bit beat, though... he's too cute :blushing:
Oh... a song. That's right.
A lot of people sadly remember Tupac Shakur as a man who glamorized "thug life"; he was always on the news for something that he said, heading to court for something he was accused of or worse, attacked for the person he was. Sometimes, literally; as was the case that ended his life all too soon.
People don't always remember the gentle soul Tupac had. While many of his songs did speak harshly against society or have violent undertones, there were some very beautiful moments in some of the songs he recorded. These songs spoke of a man still trying to find his way in the world; maybe a bit defeated at times, but still positive.
I do not consider myself much of a hip-hop fan, but with that being said, Tupac is the only rap artist to ever make me feel something deep inside. His song, "Changes"; released not too long after his passing is the only hip-hop song ever that has caused me to shed tears. If you haven't heard it yet, please do so.
The song I'm posting here is another beautiful track from this man. One of the things Tupac always mentioned was the close relationship with his mother, Afeni Shakur. She raised and molded him into a man the world could be proud of and even if he occasionally sidestepped from that, he never forgot his humbling background or the love from the woman who did everything she could to raise him, even through her own problems.
This is her ode to her. There is not one negative word (curse) in it and his flow on this track and something special.
This is "Dear Mama". RIP Tupac. :heart:
