Dplanet u say that Pac and Biggie were cheesy, ur whole existence is cheesey motherf***er. I don't expect u to relate to what they represented, especially Pac, for millions of marginalised and disenchanted black youths all over the globe, cause u nothin but a guilt ridden surbuban white liberal. U probably the type that f*** any black girl just to prove that u part of the 'rainbow maricle'. Mandela and his whole caball represents interests of speculative capital, read GEAR. That senile old chump is responsible for policies that have led to social dislocation, commodification of life and institutional alienation for the millions of people, not only here in South Africa but throughout the continent. See Nepad, which is an embodiment of the Structural Adjustment regime advanced by ur hero Mandela. Ofcourse u are oblivious to all of this, becuase u've never gonn to bed with nothin to eat, u've never been evicted, u don't have a sista or cousin dyin from HIV wit no access to treatment becoz of the fiscal policies put in place by Mandela. Otherwise, why the f*** do u think the IMF, WTO, and WORLD BANK love him so much. As for Biko, he was nothin more than a monstous caricature of Franz Fanon, and his degenate politiks are what eventually led to the irreconcilable contradictions and fissures in Blk Consciousness Movement. I told u this before, but u seem extremely slow on the take, as all white liberals are, culture and the resultant realion to it is not informed by geographical spaces, but rather by similar objective material conditions. People in slums all over the globe like Pac and Biggie not because they were well markerted, but because we found our selves in their music.
As for the 'clever' Ben Sharpa who sleeps with 14 year olds, and shits himself when he is drunk, we do not identify wit him thus we don't buy him. It has absolutely nothin to do wit him being ahead of his time. His music, like his life is a pile of kak.
