Wow, that is crazy that it was so severely misinterpreted to mean something entirely different. But it makes sense how easily it was, being only just a few years apart from 9/11

Unfortunately that is very easy to believe. Too many people have died or "disappeared" for similar things

Ohhhh okay good to know, I always thought freestyle meant off the top of your head right then and there.

I also think that’s one reason why Tupac died too, him pointing on bullshit in America

Freestyle isnt always completely off the top of your head. From what I understand, the artist has never heard the beat before which makes it difficult to match. And I believe its typical to have some punchlines written out to insert in your freestyle when you can. But very rarely is an entire freestyle pre-planned and its obvious if it is

This what I found on Rap genius.com The phrase “Bombs Over Baghdad” was actually a reference to the Gulf War of the early 90s. “The U.S. was trying to beat around the bush,” said Andre 3000, in a 2003 interview with Rolling Stone. “We was trying to scare them by bombing the outskirts. If you’re going to do anything at all, do it. If you gonna push it, push it.” OutKast used the bombing as an analogy to how artists at the time weren’t dedicated to making music with real impact. “There were lots of people making music, but there was nothing real about it,” said Big Boi, to the LA Times. “We were like saying, make music that has something to say or just get out of the way.” However, that meaning was lost in 2003, when the US troops reportedly sang the song while going into battle in Iraq. Soon enough, tennis player Jennifer Capriati played the song as she took the court and said she did so to support the troops. Radio stations even began playing the song in the context of the war. Big Boi explained that he understood that fans were free to interpret it how they wanted to once a song was made. “We make a record and then it is up to people to take what they want from it,” said Big Boi in 2003. “We explain a song when people ask, but we can’t control how they feel about it. In our case, fans know where we stand pretty much. I talk to them in the street all the time. I really think Bush should have gone through the United Nations before going over there. But once the fighting starts, everything changes." However, he added that he did support the troops. “You have guys over there with families here, and you have to support the troops and pray for them. So, if the song helps them keep their spirits up, I don’t have a problem with that,” he added. Earlier this month, to celebrate the 20-year anniversary of the song, OutKast released a remix of “B.O.B.” by Rage Against the Machine’s Zack de la Rocha. “B.O.B.” was not a hit song, but it has been praised as one of the best songs of the 2000s by publications like Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, Blender, and Complex. The album Stankonia was a huge hit nonetheless and has been certified 4X Platinum.

Pac didn’t wanna be famous, he just wanted to deliver messages to the world, the media painted him out to be bad person…. He never cared about the money, he would still go to local parties, ppl would be shock to see pac at they party like he’s a normal person.. he says he hating walking by a person that look like they struggling, so he would help them out… I can’t wait til you watch his interview

Lmao 😂 🤣😂🤣 your reaction at the end of Rihanna video had me in tears!!!!
