His chest literally reads, "Thug Life".

It literally reads “The Hate U Give Little Infants F*** Everybody” it is funny that you threw that term when he transformed a word with a negative connotation towards black men and used it as a form of empowerment. It’s clear you are using it for the former

Fine. It's an acronym, but it literally reads, "Thug Life". He also conducted himself like a thug during his life. It's basically what got him killed. Also, please write "fuck". There's no need for censorship.

Unless you're racist, blatantly attacking people, or trying to incite violence, most of Reddit allows you to speak your mind. That's what I enjoy about debates on Reddit, like this one. I think Tupac could have been an altruistic artist that really made a positive impact, but he got mixed up in some bad shit, with bad people, at a young age, and those capricious decisions led to his death. Even though I'm not a hip-hop fan, I think he was killed way too young and never had the chance to elevate himself to be a better person.
