2pac’s 1995 hit “Dear Mama” was one of 25 recordings inducted today into the National Recording Registry. Each year, audio over 10 years old that are “culturally, historically or aesthetically significant” are selected. The recordings are preserved at a facility in Culpeper, Virgina.
This marks the third hip-hop inductee following Grandmaster Flash and The Furious 5’s “The Message” and Public Enemy’s Fear of A Black Planet.
thats phenomenal
The Greatest Of All Time.
word
Huuuge.. Rip 2pac

Pac was the truth. He also punked the whole Eastcoast, by himself, ha! ha!
Changes was also inducted onto the Pope’s playlist last year. Tupac is a one off, no other emcee can touch him because he has a power that no other aritst has. Pac has at least one track that everyone can relate too.
Pac 4 Ever.

RIP PAC
Tupac is Gods secret weapon….i told ya

This is absolutely amazing. Guess i’d say congrats if he was still here. Cube’s today was a good day should be in there too. lol. will all of that being said as far as pac goes….:
Couple of CLASSIC TIMELESS songs.

Most overrated rapper of all time.

Hey..FUCK OFF son. you’re probably counting his posthumous material. which shouldn’t really count.
This is why I say 2 Pac>>>>> Biggie
Yea, Big was a better lyricist, but he had no substance at all!! Pacs albums are filled with substance, that obviously had an impact with achievments like this!
I respect pac a lot from the day i heard is music till date. Remember how i steal my caus cd of pac and run to school many years back. RIP to to greatest, we miss you pac
Even when he’s gone, He still gets awards & honors. Damn!! The greatest of all time. RIP.
