Tupac

I think Tupac was both courageous and confused. All human beings are contradictory at one point or another, especially as young adults. We're trying to figure out where we stand and sometimes its hard to make a decision. Tupac was brave enough to vocalize his confusion. Music and lyrics are a very personal way of expressing youself. I have notebooks filled with songs I have written that convey some of my deepest, most complex emotions. No one has ever heard my songs or read my lyrics. I think that if they did, they would probably think that I am a contradictory person too. I've never had the guts to put my stuff out there. For me music is so personal and I couldn't handle people judging me based on the things that I write. I commend Tupac for having the strength to share his thoughts and feelings knowing that they will be judged. I may not agree with everything that Tupac thinks or sings about, but I respect him for speaking his mind through his music. - Meg Sweeney
