Snoop Dogg’s Praise For Tupac Shakur

One of Tupac Shakur’s closest friends, Snoop Dogg, tells Radio 1 he believes Tupac was a genius. “He always had a different style, he always came from the heart so you would feel his music no matter what situation, what label, what type of music, you would always feel the words he was saying,” Snoop said. “When he spoke it you knew it was real, you knew it wasn’t somebody just rapping about it; it was somebody who really lived it who was actually going through it and could really tell you about it. It made people really want to tune into him because he was so likeable, because his style was fun but at the same time he was dealing with some real situations.”
