DO G'S GET TO GO TO HEAVEN? (RICHIE RICH)
IT'S BEEN TWO YEARS THIS SUNDAY THAT TUPAC TRAGICALLY PASSED AWAY AFTER A SIX DAY FIGHT FOR FOR HIS LIFE. HE IS MISSED NOW AS MUCH AS EVER, IF NOT EVEN MORE. FROM BEING ONE OF THE FLYEST AND TRUEST RAPPERS EVER TO BLESS HIP-HOP TO BEING JUS' A MEMORY IZ STILL HARD TO BELIEVE. AS YOU CAN SEE ABOVE I HAVE INCLUDED A TRIBUTE SONG BY RICHIE RICH ENTITLED "DO G'S GET TO GO TO HEAVEN". I HAD TO BRING SOMETHIN' TO CAPTURE THE FEELING'S BEING FELT, AND THIS SONG DOES JUST THAT. I HOPE Y'ALL ENJOY LISTENING TO IT AS MUCH AS I DO. SHOWN BELOW IS A SECTION OF MY TUPAC TIMELINE. IT'S TAKEN FROM THE FATAL SHOOTING OF SEPTEMBER 7TH 1996 TO HIS FINAL DAY WITH US ON SEPTEMBER 13TH, WHERE HE PASSED AWAY AT 4:03 IN THE AFTERNOON.
September 7, 1996:Tupac and Suge had watched the Mike Tyson-Bruce Seldon fight at the MGM Grand Hotel. Whilst departing they encountered a crip street gang member named Orlando Anderson from Compton and a fight began. After this 'Pac and Suge went to the Luxor where Tupac changed his clothes, then on to Suge's house, staying a while to party. On leaving they stopped on Flamingo and Koval lane, where a white cadillac drew up besides them. A gunman in the back seat opened fire on Tupac before the car sped away. Tupac was shot four times in the chest, whilst Suge only suffered a light graze to the head. Suge drove Tupac to the University Medical Center, where he underwent emergency surgery, including the removal of his right lung. Suge received nine years in jail for his part in the brawl that night. One week after Suge's jailing, Biggie Smalls was murdered in L.A.
September 11, 1996: Whilst sitting in his car, a Compton man was shot to death. He was believed to be associated with the L.A. crips, and was possibly involved in Tupac's shooting. This incident was the first in a series of Gang-related murders.
Friday, September 13 1996: At 4:03 p.m. Tupac was pronounced dead. He had been in a critical condition fighting for his life for six days. Tupac died at the young age of 25. He feared and foresaw an early death for himself. As a result he left a poem, previously unreleased it was left to be read on his request, after his departure. It reads as follows;
When my heart can beat no more
I hope I die for a principle or a belief that I have lived for
I will die before my time because I already feel the shadow's depth
I have come to grips with the possibility and wiped the last tear from my eyes
I loved all who were positive in the event of my demise. - Tupac, 1992.
HERE'Z THA J-FLEXX AND DR.DRE TRACK I GAVE WORD OF. IT'S CALLED STREET SCHOLARS AND IZ REAL TIGHT. FLEXX SHOUTS OUT 9-6 A COUPLE OF TIMES AT THA END, SO IT MUST HAVE BEEN RECORDED JUST BEFORE HIZ BREAK UP WITH DR.DRE. U ALL MUST REMEBER HIZ DISS TRACK "WHO BEEN THERE, WHO DONE THAT?" ON THE GREATEST HITS ALBUM! I LIKE THIS SONG BETTER THAN FLEXX'S GANG RELATED TRACKS BUT U CAN JUDGE 4 YO' SELVES.
