Tupac Shakur Quotes (2Pac)
Tupac said that life is like a wheel. It is your turn to spin it.
I believe that in order to move on, you’ve got to be able to smile through the bullshit.
My heart is a battlefield. “Everybody’s at war with different things”. That’s the spirit. I’m in a battle for my heart.
In the spirit of Tupac Shakur, we will forgive but not forget. We believe in second chances. And if he can’t learn to love you, you should leave him.
There’s nothing wrong with dying, but there is something wrong with dying for nothing and dying because of a conflict you don’t even know why you are fighting.

It’s been said that this is the best song in the country right now, and it’s true. Machine Gun Kelly wrote this for his girlfriend and it’s an amazing display of raw emotion.
It’s time to start living the life that you want to live. Make your life today the best day it can be.
Why do we do the things we do that make us feel good? Because we were born to do them. As MGK says, we are born to stand out.
Wale Quotes
As long as I have my heart, and God in my mind, I can get it all over for all I care.
When you lose meaning in life it makes you weak/vulnerable to things.
Wale was the one that wanted to break off, but I won’t let you. I am in love with you, even though I know you don’t love me. I will continue to love you. Even when you are not around.
To love and be loved when you are young is something very hard to get through. It is like you never lose love, but you don’t even get the chance to feel it either.
When I see someone who is not acting their best, they have two choices: they can accept who they are, or fight to be the person they want to be. When this happens, it’s a beautiful thing.
Wale said that ambitious girls only wanna win and they’d rather chase their dreams than chase these men that try to chase these girls, and these girls are sweet but they ain’t even as sweet as her.
Kanye West Quotes
There are a lot of people who need to know that one day they will get their revenge.
I’ve never been a fan of Kanye’s music. I’m not even sure what he’s trying to say. Maybe he’s referencing the album he released a year ago called “Yeezus”, which was poorly received by some. What I do like is the line about memories. It’s the one line that he’s uttered in his concert tonight.
Tell someone you admire them so they can know. We are all guilty of the same thing and we all need to show other people how they can become a better version of themselves.
Some people dream of success and they will work harder than the average person.
Others dream of success and they will spend half of their time complaining about how hard they work.
Mac Miller Quotes
Mac Miller was in the wrong place at the wrong time and ended up getting shot.
It’s tough to be an artist in today’s day and age. The market is always changing, and what is available is different from what was available before. You have to constantly evolve and adapt to the times so you can stay competitive and relevant. You have to try new things and figure out the best way to get your message out there.
Sometimes it’s hard to know what is right from wrong. The best thing we can do is follow our hearts, and hope everything goes well.
The rapper was in a coma for a period, due to a drug overdose. He has said that he wants to die every day, and that he is addicted to everything, but his fans probably won’t be too upset with him.
The rapper had a habit of keeping the promises he made with his fans. He would often send new music to anyone he had a relationship with. He also gave many free concerts and gave away his music for free download.
Nas Quotes
I don’t want to be a coward. I don’t want the answers.
I think this applies to any situation where life is at risk, whether it’s a job or your family.
Everything comes to an end. And so you have to make the best out of the times you have. Don’t let go of the things that make you happy. Enjoy life.
I can’t be sure I’ll always be correct, but if I love what I do, I’ll eventually succeed, whether I’m right or wrong.
How people respond to your work can also go a long way towards telling you whether you’re doing it right.
I wish money was enough. I wish I could have a woman who knew how to please me. I wish I had a huge house and a big office. But I’m not just a pretty face. I’m a human being. I’m a person with feelings. I’m equal to everyone else regardless of status.
In his book Illmatic, Nas said that life is a b****, but god forbid that b**** divorce you and take your kids away from you.
Drake Quotes
When people don’t treat you as you deserve, you begin to feel like a nothing.

And then you go out of your way to be around them.
And you get to where, where, where there’s an edge.
And that’s just the way it is. It’s a constant battle.
A constant battle.

Eminem Quotes
Being Eminem, he was one of the first celebrities to start using Twitter. He is a very successful rapper, songwriter and entrepreneur. He has had great success and he continues to keep building on his success.
It’s not about enemies, it’s about getting to the top and staying there.
There’s some stuff that you cannot change. You can’t make an ugly duckling into a swan, and you can’t make an asshole into a gentleman. You have to deal with the problems you have, take responsibility for them, and move on.
People can make something out of their lives if they just work hard and put their minds to it.
A really good example of how to use this in the real world is the movie “The Day After Tomorrow”.
Lets say you know an act will be successful in the near future, you can use this knowledge to earn money by making a business plan for the next big product.
Kid Cudi Quotes
Having a positive impact on someone else’s life gives life meaning.
What’s good is Cudi’s music, and there’s nothing wrong with that. However his lyrics are sometimes less than solid, as they can be very cheesy and trite. For example, I don’t appreciate the line above, even if it’s just a throwaway, self-deprecating line.
Cudi said that people don’t think about the good memories and it really makes you insane.
Why are you asking what they are imagining, you know what they are imagining!

Lil Wayne Quotes

There is no one who can stop me, noone can stop me. I don’t give a fuck what you say. I will always succeed. And when I do, You will be there beside me. I won’t let you go.
Women are the most beautiful yet also the most difficult beings known to man.
Lil Wayne is alluding to the fact that he has been arrested before for possession of a small amount of marijuana, but has been released without conviction. He knows to play it off as a joke and not to take it seriously.

T.I Quotes
60. Don’t look at what you don’t have, but start being thankful for what you do have.

Because I don’t know if I’ve been through the fire and the ashes,

I might have a good sense of hell and heaven.
This is a phrase that is commonly used in rap. Here it’s the rapper who is going to “fade away,” instead of the hater who is not the one that could “fade away.” Haters are a common term in many rap songs.
I will always rise above the doubt that may exist about me.
Rick Ross Quotes
In life sometimes you have to go through a few heartaches before you can appreciate the sweetness of life.
After the news of the passing of Biggie Smalls broke, rapper Rick Ross was quoted in saying “Regardless of how it goes down, life goes on.” He was referring to Biggie’s death and not his own.
Success is not measured by how many people you bless.
Every day is a new opportunity to reach the goals you’ve set for yourself.

If we had the chance, the moment, the day, the hour, that would be yours. But it’s gone.
71. If you meet a person who gives you the gift of remembering them, you’ll have a hard time forgetting them.
Chris Brown believes that people should never assume that they know what someone is going through.
Jay-Z Quotes
Jay Z said that nobody could look like him and that he built his body the way he did.
If I can judge Jay Z based on his music, then I have no problem judging him based on his comments on the murder. If he can judge, which is highly unlikely, and can say he’s not guilty, then he doesn’t have a reason to have remorse for what he said. But, if he’s truly not guilty, he should show some remorse for how the police treated him.
You are a part of a tribe. It’s more than just being part of a social network. Think of what you do as a tribe and try to get a group of people to help you. Your reputation is what others think about you based on your behavior and actions, while your Character is you. You are part of a tribe, and you will have some positive and some negative things you do as a part of that tribe.
The reason why Jay Z is the rapper that he is is because of the way he expresses his voice over beat through his words. The problem is that he is not saying anything new. You can find this quote on most rap songs. It’s just that it’s his voice that makes his beat different than all the others.
Wiz Khalifa Quotes
I think it’s wrong to say “the sadness of the past and the fear of the future” cause it’s not true; it’s a way of thinking that has nothing to do with our lives or our happiness.
The sadness from the past and the fear of the future have ruined our family’s lives.
It’s not a true way of thinking that you can blame on others.
When I first heard this I thought it was a weird quote, but the more I read about it, the less I like it.
As far as I’m concerned, good things should come in good time.

Busta Rhymes Quotes
82. Funny how the love be fake, but I ain’t stressing. Thankful for the love that’s genuine, appreciate the blessings.
When Busta Rhymes talks about making it, he means, of course, that he has become successful by working hard and staying with his craft, but also that he has become successful by being in the right place at the right time.
Andre 3000 Quotes
In the movie, Andre 3000 plays the character named “Andre 3000”. He says: “Everyone has an addiction… mine happens to be you.” He is saying that he wants to get to know you. He wants to take you out for coffee and for a friendly conversation. He just wants to tell you about himself and his life. He wants to be your friend. He wants to be your addiction.

Childish Gambino Quotes
When I need your help to do something, you are going to help me or be held down as punishment.
As soon as the sun starts to set,
We’re at the edge of the river
I’ll give you
All of me until there’s nothing left.
I want you to know, regardless of whether or not you are around, I can’t speak.
I think this is a pretty cool quote from Childish Gambino. I like that he has more than one line that’s not about fame – it’s about making an impact. This is especially true, in my opinion, when you take away the word impact. He’s talking about making a difference. I like that.
As somebody who has struggled to fit into certain communities, I understand the pain of being told you don’t belong at a dinner party.
Snoop Dogg Quotes
Snoop loves to travel through time, back in the day, and he’s always happy.
It was hard to think of much to say to this young man who had been through so much. So I just made a joke. He laughed, and we got on with the interview.

99. “It’s tough, it’s tough.” – Snoop Dogg
The following is from a more recent interview with Snoop Dogg where he says he was “happy with [his] life and [his] relationships [he] had in [his] life” and that he wants to “give [his] life back to [his] God” before concluding that life is “hard”.
There are times when 100% true, but for the majority of us, we might need to slow down and make changes in order to reach our goals.

Happiness is something that I always strive to have in my life. I am happy when I am with family and friends, when I am at the beach, when I am doing my best.
When it is a question of truth, we shall not have to worry about the consequences.
