Well that's what happens when Hollywood "creates" an image. It makes impressions on people and they aren't usually the right ones. It isn't until they make completes arses of themselves (Brittany) or just drop dead that people start hearing "the other side" of that person's life.

Sometimes unless you really truly know that person do you have the story.

For instance....when Tupac died, I wasn't surprised....we went to the same high school for one year and really was nothing more than an annoying prick and nothing like the person we see.......then again...he went from annoying to super annoying...yet and still we have younger kids who idolize him because he was supposed to be this....great thinker, philosophical rapper......please...You want an idea what kind of person her was?

Watch Juice...that will put you in the ballpark.

I also don't like it when people do what you're doing.

You went to high school with Tupac for a year. Did you really know him, though? Is the high school Tupac the same as the grown man Tupac?

He may not have been a great thinker or a philosphical PERSON but his poems and lyrics are usually what Michael Eric Dyson and others highlight.

"Juice" is a movie and what you "knew" of Tupac was probably a surface level presentation just as most of our public interactions are.

What you typed is as silly as when people talk about how noncelebs were when they were in high school: "oh you think so-and-so is cute or cool NOW...but 15 years ago in high school...shoooot...he wore glasses, braces, and was an annoying dork...I know the real so-and-so because HE went to high school with me...."

I agree. If someone from West Charlotte Class of 93 was on here, they would not remember me as the wonderfully, fanstastic person that you people on GC get to experience .......I was straight hood, often disrespectful and fought all the time..I needed a hug or something.......anyhoo Thank God thats not me today...and that "high school persona" may not have been Pac at the time of his death....the man's lyrics and poetry can not be denied...

as for Heath..I'm never really surprised by news like this...celebs are real people and have the same problems and even more really because the fame itself is a problem...I'm saddened by the news but never shocked....

That's no secret. They've shown photos of his high school days along with other celebs' high school days. He had a gumbi (as many dudes did back then) and he looked dorky. Dorks try to be hood all the time for whatever reasons...blah.

So basically you don't know more than we do about him. Okay.

I didn't say I knew him personally...nor did I say I had intimate knowledge of him...for one...he went to Dunbar for a year and for 2 he was 2 years behind me in my younger cousin's home room. He got kicked out because he was on the wrong end of too many fights. The only class we had together was gym and he terrorized the girls (like normal high school boys would)...and then there was the time he got his arse kicked by the varsity football team for popping the wrong bra strap.

I wasn't one that got chummy with dorks.

Oh so your Tupac tale was just to announce that you two went to the same high school. Cute.

You don't have to like it....boo hoo...someone talking bad about the dead...and to answer your question:

Is the high school Tupac the same as the grown man Tupac?


Let me put it this way...with all the dumb shit he was in the news for, it's no wonder he wound up shot to death at an early age....

Hmmm....let's see

He wanted to be a thug when he was younger...he got his wish.

shot at some cops, stayed in and out of jail, shot at other people (remember the incident where he allegedly shot a CHILD???)...raped a few women....(most of this is well documented)

no wonder he died before he hit 30....

So in a way, his 16 year old self was actually a lot less harmful than his 26 year old self that died senselessly.

Take it how you want it.

Did you overlook my post the first time around? All of a sudden you're typing with bravado or whatever. LOL.

Anywho, BLAH. You announced you went to high school with Tupac like it mattered. The end.

*slips a hand in the air*

I went to college with Eva from ANTM. I can completely vouch that she was the diva she was presented to be on TV. She's totally mean and talks about people and plots to write in other's brownies like there's no tomorrow. I never met her and didn't know she went there until she dropped out, but she was only a couple pages away from me in the yearbook, so I'm still qualified to make that statement.

*walks out*
