Anonymous asked: Tupac is a much better rapper than Drake and/or Lil Wayne & his crusty self. Rappers nowadays suck. I can't believe y'all are even TRYING to compare the two.
Yes the hell he is! I was just showing an anon how much rap has changed over the years, can’t really compare the two in my eyes. As much as I like Drake and as much as I hate Lil Wayne: They will never be on Tupacs level…
Don’t get mad at me because Drakes song looks a hot mess next to Tupac. They wanted a comparison, whoop there it is! That’s how much Rap has changed over the years anon.
There’s no pleasing you people, who ever I compare SOMEBODY will always have something to say. It doesn’t matter who I compare, you guys just want to argue and make everybody see shit your way, NEWS FLASH- not everybody will agree with you in life, and if you’re going to get mad over a question on tumblr.. how are you doing in the real world?

Tupac- Keep Ya Head Up (1993)
And if you fall, stand tall and comeback for more
Cause ain’t nuttin worse than when your son
wants to kno why his daddy don’t love him no mo’
You can’t complain you was dealt this
hell of a hand without a man, feelin helpless
Because there’s too many things for you to deal with
Dying inside, but outside you’re looking fearless
Drake Ft. Lil Wayne- The Motto (2012)
Now she want a photo
You already know though
You only live once: that’s the motto nigga YOLO
We bout it every day, every day, every day
Like we sittin on the bench, nigga we don’t really play
Every day, every day, fuck what anybody say
Can’t see ‘em ‘cause the money in the way
Real nigga what’s up what’s up what’s up
unpopular opinion: i think he should be able to keep it . i mean its a merit-based scholarship and not one based on financial need . & this is only up for discussion because its p. diddy’s son as opposed to a lesser known wealthy family . i think the boy got a decent gpa & should be awarded the scholarship . now if there is someone going out for the scholarship with a higher gpa, more extracurriculars, etc. then they are deserving of it, regardless of economic standing. but if you worked for it, then you deserve it.Should P. Diddy’s son return $54,000 college scholarship? – Schools of Thought - CNN.com Blogs
Justin Combs worked hard in high school to improve his football game and earn a 3.75 GPA . He recently received a $54,000 merit-based scholarship to UCLA, where he’ll play football.
In April, Forbes named Justin Combs’ dad, Sean “P. Diddy” Combs, the wealthiest artist in hip-hop. Some say the family should return Justin’s scholarship, arguing that Combs should pay for his son’s education and taxpayer money should go to students with greater financial need. Other say Justin Combs earned the scholarship through his grades and athletic ability, and deserves to keep it.
What do you think? Should the Combs family keep, return or donate the money? Should students with wealthy parents have access to merit-based scholarships and financial aid? via @CNN_Blogs
Well I’m sure it’s easier to work hard in school when your dad mad tracks with Biggie and has his own line of clothes and shit. I’d like to see his little ass earn the GPA in household with food stamps and poverty prevail. You gotta be fucking kidding me. Of course he should give it back. It’s obscene. Hip Hop heads already think Diddy milks people dry and leaves their careers in the morgue. Now it’s education? I don’t think Diddy’s son had to worry about shit other than school. I had to bust my ass in high school and college. If I was on a committee picking people I would pick people who weren’t born with a silver spoon in their mouth. Then again, schools are getting so grimey, they probably awarded Diddy’s son just for the publicity; it saved them money in marketing. The real question is why the school gave his ass money in the 1st place? Are they trying to provoke class warfare?
I think he should give it back from a economical standpoint. I’m sure there are other athletes on a UCLA team that can use the money that come from impoverished background. I know I would if I was Diddy, but ay….I’m not.
On a logical and moral standpoint, fuck outta here man. High school is high school… Why penalize him for being smart or taking advantage of the resources that are available to him? I swear, if this was some white kid, no one would have said a goddamn thing, but because this is Diddy’s kid, its front page.
Ridiculous.
True. I don’t see it as a penalty I guess. He could still afford to go to any higher education institute on earth without said scholarship. That’s the issue for Diddy’s son or the children of wealthy individuals period versus middle class individuals.
I dont see it as a penalty. No one is taking it away from him. It’s being suggested that he give it back, and I agree. Granted, it’s a merit based scholarship, not a need based scholarship, but I guarantee that there are people who have the grades and the need. 54K to the child of a multi millionaire is NOTHING compared to 54K to a child who’s household income is…well…54K a year. But hey…it’s his. He earned it. Sure, his father can fund his education, my education, the education of every person I follow on Tumblr and he wouldn’t miss a cent of it. But…the kid earned it.
I can’t believe this is even under discussion.
The kid earned that scholarship but he doesn’t need it. The money should be allocated to someone else who wouldn’t be able to go to college unless they had it.
Yes, he did earn the scholarship. But does he need it? I’m sure his wardrobe exceeds 54k. I wonder if he would’ve achieved that 3.75 GPA if he had to worry about his family eating, couldn’t afford tutors, and lived in poverty. Granted he didn’t ask for a wealthy father, he was just born to one. I think he should be a good person, recognize that he is capable of receiving merit based scholarships, and give it to someone with the same or higher GPA that’s not wealthy and seriously needs it.
Besides: Why would they pick him for that scholarship? Like there weren’t other students qualified for it…
A little-known life-threatening illness caused by blood sucking insects has been labelled the ‘new AIDS of the Americas’ by experts.
The parasitic illness called Chagas Disease has similarities to the early spread of HIV, according to a new study.
Similar to AIDS, Chagas is difficult to detect and it can take years for symptoms to emerge, according to experts writing in the journal PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases.
The disease - once largely contained to Latin America - has spread into the U.S due to increases in travel and immigration.
