He writes a descriptive rather than prescriptive, meaning he described the world he lived in rather than scripting a suggested solution or proposing a more optimistic outlook. He blends together autobiography, storytelling, and dark prediction of his life and the world. In this song he is addressing his own mother in a letter of appreciation also full disappointment and conflict. As one my favorite songs of all time “Dear Mama” by arguably one of the greatest rappers of all time and poets, Tupac Amar Shakur.
But hip-hop or rap music was way more than that. In the early 90’s, hip hop music was widely criticized because of its lyrical content, the degrading of women, and the violence it portrayed in its music videos.
