| _________________________________ [Apr 17,2012 9:47am - RustyPS ""] This was all over my Facebook feed yesterday I'm already sicker of re-animated Tupac hologram than I was of real life Tupac before he got shot |

| ___________________________________ [Apr 17,2012 9:51am - slam_ham ""] I wonder if I could pay to see this w/ virtual money? |

Meh, I disagree. THIS! Tupac marked the beginning of Rap's downslide towards complete mediocrity.If we're talking strictly mainstream rap, you could say that, I guess. There's a lot of great MCs in the underground though. |
| ________________________________________ [Apr 17,2012 10:07am - hauptpflucker ""] Well I have been relatively recently reintroduced to some really awesome current underground stuff. And really that was a major generalization, there have even been a few decent mainstream things that have happened since. |

| _____________________________________________ [Apr 17,2012 10:08am - arillius_the_white ""] Tupac and Biggie were the apex of mainstream rap imo. Yes, the underground has great MCs, but nothing tops early to mid 90s mainstream rap. The shit today is AWFUL. on the rare occasion when I wear a backwards hat and listen to rap in my Honda Civic, it's strictly older stuff |

The shit today is AWFUL. on the rare occasion when I wear a backwards hat and listen to rap in my Honda Civic, it's strictly older stuffAs far as being artistically sound and not just looking to hit it big, I would have to agree with that. I'm not saying Tupac wasn't talented. He hit it big because he wrote rhymes that hit home for a lot of people in his more serious songs, as well as write catchy, "booty shaking" songs for his less serious faire. In that aspect, he was very versatile. The exact same thing can be said for Biggie, but IMO Biggie was a way more talented MC. I wasn't huge on Biggie either, to be honest, but if I'm comparing the two, I'm picking Biggie every time. That said, I favor a lot of their contemporaries: Dre, Snoop, Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, Busta Rhymes, The Fugees, etc. I think the reason Tupac and Biggie rose over everyone else while they were alive was that they had some serious songs that people related to come out, and that's not something most of their contemporaries did. Then, they both had tragic deaths, and as we all know, once you die, you become a god a lot of people's eyes no matter what you did when you were alive. All that said, wake me up when they reanimate ODB or J Dilla. Then I'll be interested. |

| ____________________________________________ [Apr 17,2012 1:33pm - arillius_the_white ""] Hypothetical question: If, say, Hologram technology gets so advanced that they could visually replicate a whole entire set from a band, would you go see it? Say, 1972 Emerson, Lake and Palmer or something. As long as the concert in its entirety was taped and the technology is there, I don't see why it couldn't happen. Ethical, unethical, stupid, or not? Saddening is more like it. |
| ______________________________ [Apr 17,2012 1:40pm - ark ""] 1) how would the audio be handled 2) sitting in the crowd, it would feel pretty lame knowing it's not a real band. lamer than a pink floyd light show. just watch the dvd. |
| ______________________________ [Apr 17,2012 1:41pm - ark ""] 90's rap was the fucking shit though. pop and underground. but then when home recording started getting big...underground took a nosedive. |
| ______________________________ [Apr 17,2012 1:43pm - ark ""] FUCK THIS, I'LL BE ON HOLODECK 02 |

| ____________________________________________ [Apr 17,2012 1:56pm - arillius_the_white ""] Yea, the audio would ve an issue unless it was professionally recorded, not bootlegged. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 17,2012 2:02pm - the_reverend ""] it looks just plain weird... Dave chapelle called it. bennyhillifier |

| _________________________________________ [Apr 17,2012 5:07pm - trioxin245 nli ""] Loved his performance |
| ____________________________________________ [Apr 17,2012 5:11pm - arillius_the_white ""] ITT: Tupac is actually back stage doing it |
| _______________________________________ [Apr 17,2012 9:10pm - hungtableeed ""] This was at Cochella I think it says...kind of a lame festival but in all honesty I, well, people are usually fuckin spun outta their tits on hallucinogens at these places. As corny as it really is, catchin Snoop and Dr. Dre with a fuckin Tupac hologram mid peak would be pretty goddamn awesome if you ask me. These guys we're the shit in their prime, they make these new rappers look like pussies. |
| ________________________________ [Apr 17,2012 9:14pm - Burnsy ""] I can't argue against that if the caveat is you catch it while peaking. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 18,2012 8:56am - the_reverend ""] I love that snoop is over 50 and movies like it, but hologram tupac hasn't aged a day. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 18,2012 9:17am - arktouros ""] [img] so not obi-wan style hologram, just a projector, but still pretty cool. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 18,2012 9:19am - the_reverend ""] I heard he got shot after the show. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 18,2012 9:19am - arktouros ""] nigga got shot during the show. |
