Default What Sucks about this Artist?: 2Pac

He does damn good gangsta rap and can murder a hardcore track like possibly no other rapper before or since, but that's kind of his only wheelhouse. His slow songs are tedious, I remember his conscious rap being likewise, even when he tries a more personal track it's always gotta be in the corny Thug Life context, and if he didn't have the East Coast/West Coast rivalry to put a fire under his ass he probably would never have been half as good or popular as he got.
