50 Cent "This Is The Difference Between Eminem vs. Tupac" 

Its dumb to say that it was the same scenario just because they both abused drugs lol. Everything was different

@@Subs1338 It isn't dumb at all.

Yeah they're two individuals with two different mothers, just simplifying it to race is a dumb take

@@MrFriendlyCsgoContent your tweakin

Tupac's mom was dealing with drugs since the 80s. She didn't even know Tupac was a rap star until the late 90s, when he would be shot down soon after. They're experiences we're similar, not the same, but they both took their pain in a different way. Pac just grew up faster. Not that big of a deal in the long run, cuz Eminem understands now.

Seriously Amazing!!!!

Something to truly be proud of..

Obviously not intelligent enough to not do the crimes in the first place

@@kevinmcqueen9180 dude its an accent lol

Did Eminem die from starvation or something? Because last time I checked he's still alive, which would mean that his mother fed him everyday.. So why didn't he rap about his mom fixing him a "hotplate" (moms spegetti) or all the other positive things she did for him..? You know why? Because of the psychology is different (which is what 50 is talking about).. and how do you know Tupacs mom ain't say sh*t that was way worse than that? She was a f*cking crackhead bro.. So I know for a fact she was saying foul shi*t.. "when I was younger me and my mama had beef 17 years old kicked out in the streets" .. He would've got into details and went off on her if he had the same psychology as Eminem. Not to mention, "the plan is to show you that I understand" .. So the song was about understanding his mothers perspective (which again, shows the difference in phycology and why the lyrics are different).. When it comes to Eminems song, there isn't the same level of understanding.. Even though his mom was 15yo when she got married to his 22yo dad, got pregnant when she was 18 and was abandoned by him shortly after he was born. As a matter of fact, even Eminem took back all that privileged white kid BS he said, came back to his senses and mad a song similar to Tupacs (with understanding).. ru-vid.comko7t_Fe605Q

Damn! I didn’t know that. I might have to listen to Marshal a little bit more cause when I was a teenager we wasn’t bumping his albums

@@ColdJelly19 headlights made me cry, shit hit

The anger is the difference that points out that there was problem to address vs a ''it is what it is'' that does not command change.

@@derrickbird9676 yeah I always wondered if he’d ever make a record like that towards his mother, down the line. And he did. Maturing is a beautiful thing.

@@deeky1239 ….. when Dear Mama was written, his mom already stopped using crack.. there was nothing to change.. and even when she temporarily got into crack, she had long already been an amazing & legendary person & mother.. let alone activist and historical figure/revolutionary.. the point with Eminem’s mom was she was none of those things, and supposedly/apparently a bad person & bad mother .. and still not sorry/accountable, nor prob off from/done with the same drug habit/addiction she had before .. and then also infamously sued Eminem lol

The anger is the difference that points out that there was problem to address vs a ''it is what it is'' that does not command change.

That depends on the song lol. 2pac had various styles, some where angry , i love them all

Em’s anger was justified. Tupac was smart enough to know black people wouldn’t buy an album wouldn’t like the song if she were held accountable. Eminem knew there was/is already so much anger towards white women (in the black community) that it was okay to be honest. Same topic…. But each audience has radically different expectations of a mother. It’s not okay to be a loser or druggie. Especially, with mouths to feed.

@@gabrielmarcotte1905 You nailed it

Hit em up seemed very angry to me

I think he explained the context very well… not sure what you missed there?

@@CorySpitznagel Well no he simply said its because one is white and one is black and that somehow makes them different because of this vague white and black have different perspectives on how to be raised. Which is such a generic and lazy take on this. Whereas the above comment actually has a better understanding of why they are different.

@@helenHTID stop acting like I know what Em's life was like? But you're not going to say stop acting like I know about PAC's life? They've both been very open about their lives in music and interviews, it's crazy how you don't even speak on Pac but just want to make Eminem look bad. I'm a huge fan of both, and all I said was this little snippet from an interview doesn't provide context. Grow up lil man, you and your girlfriend Cory

You can take out Pac and put mostly any other black person in that statement and it most likely will be the same. Black boys never openly disrespect their parents like that. Culture does exist and people are raised differently. Sorry you can’t comprehend that 50 cent said it in a nice way but you somehow still managed to fuck up what he said.

@@charg1nmalaz0r51 how many black people in general talk shit about their moms let alone rappers? What 50 cent made sense but it hit a nerve to you what he said. If it makes you feel better exchange Pac and put Kendrick in there. Put j Cole or any black artist in that context and it will still be the same result.

Bro, don't talk about what you don't know. How do you know how good of a mom Tupac's mom was ? You're just saying shit for the sake of it.

@@BenDovahkin because of countless interviews. Because she was a black panther who independently studied law to get their family members out of prison whilst pregnant. There is a lot I know about in this subject. The real question is, how the hell do you know I don’t know about it?

@@BenDovahkin Debbie and Afeni were cut from two different cloths. Their sons responses to their turmoil is evidence.

That because 2pac is a poet and poet is different from a rapper

@@mikehorse2317 I'd say that he is both. He felt no shame about his game. He could do party songs, hard hitting diss tracks and what not. But I remember one of his lines: " my mission is to be more than just a rap musician The elevation of today's generation, if I could make 'em listen". When he spoke about the issues, he spoke from heart and experience. Both Tupac, and the HBO show The Wire, truly captured the ghetto struggle in a way that felt honest and real.

@@mikehorse2317 Yea but rap is poetry so he was both. But I get what you mean. 2Pac definitely was a pure poet tho.

Em has those type of songs too

Eminem is a great entertainer and he has hot hip hop bars

Exactly

Em mom gave him some love. If em mom didn’t give him any love,he would of been an unheard of abandon infant or dead, sexually, physically abused, mentally derange adopted orphan.

The cultural and societal contexts are part of that too though. Like why was Tupac’s mom able to do that while Em’s mom wasn’t? We don’t live in vacuums. Tupac’s mom was likely able to show love because that is ingrained in the culture and societal conditions that 50 is talking about

I don't think it's fair to say that about Em's mom when we don't actually know her. Em likes to exaggerate for entertainment, like the song my mom is an obvious fabrication for fun...

@@osamadar8826 you do know that Em's mom tried to feed him valium as a kid more then once right?

50's kid doesn't have the capacity to recognize what he's missing. He's just for sale to the highest bidder. We're all just products of our genetics. The kid drew a bad hand.

He was a father figure to lot of white guys here in Germany

Lol. 50 is one of the weakest MC These days .He got luck em and dre took him under theire wings

Lmao 50 is a buster bro.

@@mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm3153 he cant rap. Pac,Biggie,EazyE,Nas, Slick Rick,EMinem,Ludacris,JAYZ,Ja Rule and then probably 50 Cent

Facts and it’s sad because Ems mom was a single parent, sometimes I feel like Em Over exaggerated some of his life. Sure he grew up without a pops, but to sit there and say his mother didn’t love him and treated him poorly I find it hard to believe, I don’t believe she was an angel but let’s not forget neither may of been Marshall as a kid, Marshall was her only child for 12-13 years til his half brother was born from Debbie

@@ChrisLFFL bruh he from Detroit, it's like a 3rd world country

I wish that were true dude. Truth is she spent a large portion of his life as a crackhead and kicked him out of the house a dozen times. It was his teacher that got him into the air school with Jada Pinkett.

Na eminems mom fed him volume and brought niggas around the house that werent reputable. Tupacs step dad was actually someone that wasnt a drunk, and taught Pac on how the system works and even til this day cares about Tupacs music. Em’s mom basically tried to kill him. A massive difference, 50 is watering it down to make it sound like its just race thats the difference; yes the expectation was different but at the end of the day Pac gained more by having a strong mother regardless if she was on drugs. Eminems mom was sick and told her healthy son that he was sick too. Its not really that close.

@@ChrisLFFL she was only 17 when Em was born I think it makes sense for her to have had such poor parenting since she was so young.

Goat is an opinion the only thing you can base it on is numbers Eminem sold 200 million albums Tupac sold 50 million soooo… whose really the king ?

@@IsanG08 Because Tupac was Black, of course his demographic would be smaller, that is just a numbers game. I'm not saying Eminem isn't one of the best rappers of all time, but being white FOR SURE helped him get to the level of popularity that he had in 1999 or 2000, he even knows this and admits this in White America for example.

Huh ????? Half Dollar cant spell Psychology let alone understand it. WTF did he just say at 0:33 Terms a Doorman in it. (Terms of endearment) Hilarious !!

This!!!!

That is cap. Em has done records for many artist and put alot of his friends on. He brought out D12, big Sean, 50, Kendrick got inspired by the guy.any of today's artist have Eminem at the top of who they trying to reach. Pac is great but his impact and Eminems impact on the game is different. How they was raised are different. Pac comes from a struggle black family who's mother was doing what she could with what she had. Eminem was from as struggling white family who's mother abused her child and let another man do her child harm. So of course they music are different. They was raised different

Dude thats bs Pac´s mom actually supported him taught him how to act and had self respect and the respect of those around her Where as Em´s mom used him and made him belive he was sick so she could legally buy drugs for her own uses. How could you not resent that Pac´s mom was a good mother with her own vice´s Ems mom was a bad mother with her own vice´s (from what we know) As for what you said about how they treat their friends would you rather have a friend who belives in you knows you have your dreams so he gives you a couple g´s and a studio to make it happen but if you can´t make it he´ll still make sure your good and not wanting for money (em did this for d12 and slaughterhouse). Or a friend who treats you like a pet or a goon and thinks its his responsebility to take care you all the way

This is 100% correct. Pac was more self-aware which made him more aware of the people and things around him in relation to himself, whereas Em is more self-absorbed.

funny how you think you know shit about 2 humans you never met or know much about except the things we all get to see

Yip the first hit em up was shit and soft, then lil kim stole the beat took it too biggie, then he wrote the next one and fuck it was powerful

What do u mean ? Sounds interesting

PAC's mom was the drug addict not pac!

50 is only talking about the art of the lines not discussing their personal life in detail

@@markh7831 Yes he is he’s saying how they both felt growing up there’s not much more personal than that haha

I’m sure at this point, 50 Cent probably knows a little bit more about Eminems child hood than you and I. Being as how they are very close friends

Eminem - White people saw him as trailer trash and black people saw him as a white boy. Em didn't belong anywhere.

Yea he is sooooo much better than Tupac and is the best there ever was there is no one even close to Em's level

Listen to Headlights, Eminem apologizes to his mom because, like you said he was very angry, but time passed and he realized how much it hurt her with that song and a few others, and he knows she did what she could do to raise him and his half brother alone while being an addict (which is really hard) Doesn't make sense to compare them, Tupac was one of the GOATS when he was alive and certainly is still one now, RIP.

He wasn’t wrong though .. he said “drug usage was part of it” doesn’t mean it was the full picture .. Em’s early music before cleaning out my closet was him talking about how his mom was an addict “found out my mom does more dope than I do” in “my name is” then later on, she tried to sue him .. also different mothers too, Debbie acted the way she acted.. and Afeni Shakur raised pac better .. then in 2013 em apologized to his mom in Headlights ..

@@pierocignetti8959 *Headlights* wasn't necessary because Em apologizes in *Cleaning out my closet* in the hook ("I'm sorry mama...") Moreover *Headlights* is a trash song I never got fully through because of the bad beat, gay hook, flow, cadence, lyrics etc.

@@IsanG08 No Stan

Em never will reach the level of excellence that 2pac reached, period. 2pac is on another league.

Same. I remember an interview he did for the Tupac Ressurection DVD extra where he just sounds ignorant. He has really matured and is also an amazing actor.

@Blaze Coopr it’s room for two good rappers bruh.

@Blaze Coopr and a billion reasons why game will never be in the same convo as 50

1 luv I appreciate your testimony forgiveness is apart of healing do progress is able to begin

I was thinking this. I hope 50 wasn't trying to imply which emotion is better and which is worse. Feeling angry and disappointed are legitimate emotions. Of course, acceptance is better but that shouldn't mean to abandon hope for a better future.

Fck no 🤣🤣🤣🤣

And Eminem is in a class by himself as being the lone white rapper especially the time he came out , selling 150 million more albums then Tupac , & he was a better rapper then Tupac and your dumb if you can’t see that

I agree

As for Pac, the first time a ever cried from a record was him..music never touched me until then. But alot of ppl like em...can't discredit empirical fact

He’s not comparing Eminem & Tupac directly, he’s comparing two specific records they have addressing their mothers and providing context for the difference in tone.

So white guys hate their moms? Kinda racist isnt it?

"Black men honor *their mom?" So do non black men not honor their mothers? Didn't know honoring your drug addict neglectful & abusive mothers was strictly a black thing. Good to know. Now let's take this knowledge & compare it to how these black men grow up to commit a disproportionate amount of crime as well as statistically abandon their children to be raised by these wonderful mothers at a higher rate than any other racial group. Perhaps there should be more criticism of these failed mothers as opposed to unearned "honoring." You don't honor someone just because you came out of them. You honor them if they did/are doing an honorable job of raising you. Blind devotion to someone that has failed you does nothing positive for you, your mother, or society at large. Do not honor someone that does not honor you. (Keep in mind I am not saying you personally, I am referring to people who's mothers failed them yet choose to still "honor" them.)

Michael I think Deutscher Riese has just educated your ignorant ass!! That’s a point Michael would care to explain why there are so many black kids who’s fathers are not around and a very high statistic that single moms are raising black children on they own?
