I've been listening to a lot of Tupac, since yesterday was the anniversary of his death. I recommend checking out a few of his songs on YouTube. Here, I found some of the classics: Changes: http://youtube.com/watch?v=psBEj6cUXyk Keep Ya Head Up: http://youtube.com/watch?v=HfXwmDGJAB8 Dear Momma: http://youtube.com/watch?v=JNcloTmvTeA -Floyd

My new favorite song, 'the champ' by ghostface. The only way it could be better is if Mr. T was doing his own lines. I put a little tupac on yesterday too floyd. Pain, Revolution, and Brenda's got a baby.

Seem to be stuck in a time warp here - still listening to Dark Star by the Grateful Dead. This modern music all sounds the same, blah blah blah....
