Megaton... okay. When you said you didn't know who Richard Pryor was, I took it as "woah, your generation doesn't care about older stuff." But I don't know how to handle you not knowing who John Lennon was. A part of me died when you said that. It really did. I mean, you live in Toronto, "the west," the civilized world. He's in history books and they teach about his work in music classes. They mention him all throughout pop culture as one of the greatest music icons in history. I can't find words that could possibly express my dismay.
Anyway lol, on to the Tupac thing:
Not the best example, because it talks about a lot of stuff that even I'm skeptical of. Friday the 13th is thought to be a bad/ unlucky day because that's the day that the Knight's Templar were wiped out (if you don't know who they are, go crack a book
). It has nothing to do with Tupac's murder. And it's quite common for music videos to be shot 2, 4, 6, even 8 months before a record is released, and I know of at least five videos that have been. But it makes a few valid points, like the cremation thing, and the bulletproof vest, the Machiavelli thing. It also mentions specific lyrics in a Richie Rich/ Tupac duet in which he talks about being murdered... and this was recorded before his death. And the song from the Supercop soundtrack where he says he's an outlaw to the grave with a plan to get richer.
This site is better and puts the theory into a more thought-out, intelligent light. I can't find the stuff about the trade centers though... maybe that was bogus (I heard it from a friend, so who knows). But it seems perfectly logical for him to have faked his own death, in an effort to stave off his "enemies" who had previously tried to kill him, his record producer who had signed him to a bogus deal, and the police who (at the time as I recall) were planning on bringing him to court for some felony or another. Some people don't think he's dead because they don't
want him to be dead... I could care less. I do hope though that if he's alive they arrest him on the spot, and they don't just let him walk because the statute of limitations on faking his own death wore out (anyone know how long that lasts?).
