As I watch some old 'Pac videos, and see how outspoken he is during the Clinton years, what would he have done during the Bush years. Imagion, if he dissed Clinton for not living up to his promises, what would he have said about George W. Bush. Would his views change with 9-11, or would he become a conspiricy theoriest like Immortal Technique. Would he have spoke out against Bush right away like Nas did only 3 months after the towers dropped, or would he wait until the next election like Eminem and Jadakiss. Would he be against this war, or would he shock us all and straight up say we have to defend our country. I also know he wanted to start his own party, would the election of 2000 with Gore losing stop him from that, or would he say fuck it, lets go all out. Would he support Obama, or would he go off on his own.

In a highly political time, what would have Hip-Hop's most political voice have said?

If Pac would have stayed alive, he would have been bigger than Michael Moore, John Lennon and Malcom X combined. This was forseen by a Pentagon think-tank back in 1995, so they had to kill him.

I don't think Pac is hiphop's most political voice. How can someone who claims to be a thug, kill people, fuck bitches etc. etc. be taken serious on a political level.

Immortal Technique, now that's someone who is political. I think he is the most political MC of all time, it's just sad he's not known by the public. I disagree with some of his theories though, but he got MC skills and deep lyrics, so it's all good to me.

^^ i absolutely agree with you that immortal technique is a very political rapper (see the song in my sig)
talib kweli for example is also quite political

4th branch is a dope song, listen how he spits that real talk about the media. But you know, he also got this hiphop-style you know, It's not *just* politics, it's about music.  8)
