Tupac Shakur/YMMV

Broken Base: Fans often argue over what album showcases the real Tupac. The albums in question are Me Against the World VS All Eyez on Me. Proponents of the former claim that the album is better than AEOM because of its depth and dark, introspective approach, while claiming that AEOM is just a typical mainstream rap album people jumped on the bandwagon for.
Confirmation Bias: for better or for worse, this was a HUGE part of his appeal to his core audience.
Crowning Moment of Awesome: Recently, his hologram duet with Snoop Dogg at Coachella.
Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: Dear Mama.
Crowning Music of Awesome: Most of his songs.
- "Picture Me Rollin'" deserves special mention. No hook, two solid guest spots, one of the best verses Pac ever dropped.
- The guitar riffs in "Me and My Girlfriend" are simply beautiful.
Ear Worm: Hail Mary. "What do have here now? Do you wanna ride or die? Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na"
Epileptic Trees: The whole "Tupac is still alive" thing, helped by the sheer amount of music recorded before his death.
Fandom Rivalry: Tupac fans VS. Notorious B.I.G. fans.
Follow the Leader: Many rappers continue to copy his style and attitude (minus the socio-political commentary mind you)
Funny Aneurysm Moment: A lot of his songs are about him dying. Case in point: Troublesome '96.
- It wasn't impossible to see coming, he grew up surrounded by death, and he made a good deal of enemies.
Heartwarming in Hindsight / Hilarious in Hindsight: "And though it seems heaven sent, we ain't ready to have a black president. Can also count as Life Imitates Art.
- Nas sampled this line in the chorus of his song "Black President"
High Octane Nightmare Fuel: "Trapped." Tupac really doesn't gloss over how horrifying American prisons are known to be.
- Hail Mary. The song is spooky enough on its own, but the video is pretty much a supernatural slasher flick.
Internet Backdraft: Tupac VS. Biggie.
Magnum Opus: General consensus (including Tupac himself) is Me Against The World.
Memetic Outfit: His bandanna and "Thug Life" stomach tattoo.
No Such Thing as Bad Publicity: His controversy was a major contributing factor to his fame.
Tear Jerker: Dear Mama , and especially Brenda's Got A Baby which is both soul crushing AND heartbreaking.
True Art Is Angsty
Uncanny Valley: Dr. Dre & Snoop Dog brought a Pac hologram with them when they headlined Coachella in 2012. It just barely looked like a projection, and that was if you were sober and watching on a computer. Naturally, something so unnerving had to open with Pac's creepiest song.
