>Dawg...Tupac was adequate AT BEST.

No offense, but unless you support your arguments, I couldn't care less what radical one-liners hit the fan. I could reply with "2 Pac will always be THE GREATEST" -- but if that's all I have to say, where does that take us? I don't mean to single out this reply out, because it's one of many (even just on this page). But please, do me a favor: if you're going to attempt to give no more than a thesis statement, know that it needs more than six words. Saying that Pac is "barely satisfactory" is an inflammatory cheap shot when standing alone.
