Criando lição...
1
How's it been going so far?
2
Excellent.
3
Excellent.
4
I've been out I think already eight, nine days.
5
We've already finished 18 songs.
6
We're gonna do a double album, release it this Christmas, called Life Goes On.
7
We're gonna do the double album but sell it for like a single album.
8
I'm giving my fans like an extra album just for supporting me, helping me go number one while I was locked down.
9
I'm gonna just give them a double album for the price of wine.
10
So we're working on that.
11
It's real good.
12
I got a song with Snoop and Nadal, Corrupt, Faith Evans, doing well with Operation From the Bottom and Rage and Dre.
13
It's jam-packed.
14
I think it's good.
15
God, you've got everybody there.
16
Yeah, I think so.
17
I think so.
18
That's great.
19
Trying to do the best I can.
20
How do you feel creatively?
21
Do you feel like this is maybe the most creative time in your life so far? far?
22
I think so.
23
So far it's like now I'm coming with just brainstorm after brainstorm.
24
It feels like everything is just dropping out of me.
25
I've already written a movie called Live to Tell.
26
I got the half of two other movies I already started writing about halfway through.
27
I'm producing three groups simultaneously rapping on all of that.
28
I'm involved with the market of this album with the other groups as well.
29
I'm working on a project with Al Sharpton and some community leaders
30
and some former gangbangers trying to like take the hood back
31
you know get like a before maybe by next year we'll
32
be having a like a rap league like Tupac will have his own football league my own basketball league my own
33
everything every sport that you play in the hood and Tretcher have a league and
34
Coolio have his league and Snoopa have his league and Dre have his league and we'll play against each other.
35
Wouldn't that be wrong?
36
Take the hood back.
37
So we're going to do that.
38
Have block parties again in all the neighborhoods.
39
I'm going to get all the rappers together.
40
I just want us to stop through the worst hoods in America and, you know, take them back.
41
All of us, even the community, not like us going out to their neighborhood taking their hood, but people taking their own community back,
42
feeling empowered by their own positive, their own positive points positive points, their own strength.
43
I think if we do that, we'd be all right.
44
Plus, at the same time, if we register all of those voters,
45
by November, they'll have to recognize us as being important and as being somebody that they need to impress come election time.
46
So I want to help organize that as well as do all this music and acting and things like that.
47
God, you're a busy man.
48
I try to be.
49
I try to be.
50
Let's hit on some of this.
51
I want to know more about each of the individual things you talked about.
52
Now as far as your music goes, are we going to see a different side?
53
Has your music changed that much?
54
It depends on who wants it to change.
55
Has it changed as far as C.
56
Delores Tucker and Bob Dole?
57
No, it would probably be worse.
58
Has it changed in terms of people who like my music, fans of my music?
59
I believe so.
60
I believe that I've grown.
61
I believe that...
62
When the last album was really sad and reflective and like almost talking about death in every song,
63
this album is more celebratory of life, upbeat, energetic, fun, I think.
64
But it's also harsher in terms of the language.
65
Because I've been in jail for 11 and a half months, I wasn't about to come out and censor the thoughts that were in my head.
66
They were like building on top of each other.
67
So I just went in there and released it as is.
68
However, what I will do to show how responsible I am now, to show how mature I am now, is I will release a clean album.
69
With all of the songs I did, if I do a double album, I'll release a regular album with all clean songs for the kids.
70
But besides that, this album is NC-17 all the way.
71
Do you think that's a good compromise for, you know, for the maybe the smaller kids that aren't real comfortable with that, yet it's not ruining your integrity?
72
Right.
73
Right.
74
What it is is that it, we were never unreasonable rappers.
75
We were just never asked.
76
They just attacked us, you know.
77
And if we would have saw them attacking all kind kind of violent things like Arnold Schwarzenegger movies and Sylvester Stallone, it would have been a different thing.
78
I would have said, oh wait a minute, we should change.
79
But they just attacked us.
80
And the reason that they attacked us is because we have no voting power.
81
And because we don't give money to those presidential campaign and we don't know how to court those politicians,
82
so therefore they turn their backs on us and they use us to give votes.
83
Because right now, since there's no problem in Russia, there's no problem in the US,
84
it's time to pick on the rappers because we are becoming a threat to the nation's security when we're not really.
85
We are a part of this nation.
86
So I believe that given the chance, we will always be responsible.
87
As soon as I figured out that the way that this is happening is because we write for adults.
88
Adults play the music.
89
Adults like it.
90
The little kids want to hear it, so they hear it.
91
And they get to learning the words verbatim, not understanding what I'm saying in context of the song.
92
They're just taking it as this is it.
93
So if I say bitch, they're going just, you know, bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, not knowing what I mean by bitch.
94
They don't know how I make love to a woman.
95
They don't know how I treat my mother.
96
They don't know how I treat a woman.
97
They only heard me say bitch in this one song and think that's how I treat all women when it's not true.
98
So by having a clean album, I think we'll be able to do that.
99
Also by explaining myself, talking, going to these schools, having a little league, doing the things that I want to do, I'll be able to talk more I'll be able to represent myself more not just for me
100
but for all for all rappers because we are deeper
101
and we are being portrayed through our protractors are the people who criticize us like Miss Tucker
102
and this message across to your critics what would it be I'm not mad at you
103
and I understand what you're doing you know I'm not like
104
awesome you know I hate Delores Tucker I'm not mad at him I think
105
that what they're doing like I said is using us to become somebody.
106
Not that she wasn't anybody before, not that Dole wasn't anybody before, but let's look at who he was before.
107
He was an over-the-heel politician who really, he was too harsh for the world.
108
You know, for the United States really to pick as a president, we would look at Dole and go, he's too much to the extreme, plus he's too old.
109
We've seen what Reagan did.
110
We're not going through that again.
111
However, If he becomes the man that says, I'll rid the world of these horrible, evil rappers, then he becomes somebody.
112
And Miss Tucker, she was just another one of the ladies you see at church.
113
They're going like, y'all give my respect.
114
Y'all better who we give our respect to all the time anyway.
115
But to make herself more important, she attacked us.
116
Because now with a black person, especially a black woman, attacking rappers, oh, it's not just white people saying it.
117
And so she's somebody.
118
So I'm not mad.
119
I'm glad that they can come up off of us.
120
But all I'm saying is, be fair.
121
And if it was just our music, then let's just talk about the music.
122
But how can they ban my records?
123
And they're talking about, I'm a gangster rapper.
124
You can listen to my songs with Dear Mama and shed so many tears and keep your head up, I find that to be very responsible lyrics.
125
More responsible even than some of these other groups who they're ignoring.
126
You know, the rock groups, who I don't even want to get into a big, we get it bad, they don't, we're all musicians, but they even recognize
127
that it's just like the rappers were getting too much power in terms of selling power and representation in the world, MTV, everywhere we was going,
128
so they're going to cut it down.
129
Instead of just snatching us away, they figure they'll cut down the topics we can talk about, but that won't make the things go away.
130
I know I'm going on, but it's like if the guy that discovered AIDS, the guy that first found the virus, let's say he found the virus,
131
but didn't talk about it.
132
People would still be dying from AIDS, but no one would know what they were dying from, and no one would know what it was called.
133
So that's the same thing.
134
Thug life is not going to go away.
135
I'm just a person that discovered it.
136
I'm telling you about it.
137
I'm telling you how it is.
138
And you can figure out how to prevent yourself from either being in thug life or being a victim of thug life.
139
Or at the best, at the worst, you'll understand us.
140
You'll understand why these kids act this way.
141
Why are they jeans sagging?
142
Why are they so mad at the world?
143
If you listen to the music, you'll understand.
144
It's not taunting you.
145
If anything, it's letting you see the type of life you live.
146
As far as doing a clean album, do you think that there are some people who are going to look at that and say, it's a cop-out, it's trying to be commercial,
147
trying to get in another part of the marketplace.
148
How do you respond to that?
149
I really don't care how they feel.
150
The people who say you're a cop-out are the biggest cowards of the pack, usually.
151
To me, it's that saying.
152
How does that saying go?
153
It's like some people see things happening, some people make things happen.
154
And some people just talk about it.
155
Something like that, you know?
156
That's how I feel.
157
I'm one of the people that make things happen.
158
Then there are people that just sit and talk about the things that I make happen.
159
And then there's other people who just wish they could make things happen.
160
And that's how I feel, you know?
161
There's some people that go, if I'm too hard, they go, oh, he's too hard.
162
If I compromise and put out the clean, I go, oh, look, cop out, he ain't real, he ain't real.
163
You know what I mean?
164
If I say, lady, oh, look at him, he's sprung, they got him all, they changed him all.
165
If I say, bitch, oh, he hates women, misogyny, so blah, blah, blah, blah.
166
So you can't please everybody, nor do I want to.
167
I just be myself.
168
That's it, you know, I'm satisfied.
169
As long as I'm satisfied, as long as I can play the album to my mother.
170
I can play any one of my albums to my mother
171
and my hardest homeboy and my hardest gangbanger friend and still be proud of what I play.
172
You know how Hugh Hefner has a dream to be a playboy?
173
And I have a dream to be a boss player.
174
And that is just to play life to the fullest and get everything I want.
175
You know, make a goal, accomplish it, make another one, accomplish it, and keep going higher and higher.
176
And that's why I'm happy.
177
I'm not mad.
178
You know, I'm not mad at nobody.
179
It's all good, whatever.
180
You know, I learned my lesson.
181
If we can just be even from here, I'm cool.
182
Let's start part two of Tupac's life.
183
I'm only 24.
184
You know, the world has just begun.
185
What am I going to say on my first interview?
186
You know what I mean?
187
That type of thing, honestly.
188
Watching other people on TV, going, I'm coming back stronger.
189
I'm going to reinforce my principles.
190
I'm going to be more focused and deliberate about the things that I do.
191
Also reading, like Maya Angelou helped me through.
192
Listening to Dionne Farris' album.
193
Sarah McLachlan, every night listening to her album, she got me through it.
194
newest rap tapes, the video shows, comedians telling jokes about me
195
and me wanting to get out there to make them sorry they ever chose me to be their laughing board.
196
Reading The Prince by Machiavelli and The Art of War by Sun Tzu and what else did I read?
197
I read a lot of good books.
198
I mean a lot of like crime novels, everything.
199
I got into Dean Kuntz in there.
200
So that type of thing like helped me to just look at the world differently and just be like, oh I want to write books now, I want to do movies, I want to write an autobiography.
201
I like to just really shake the world more.
202
I shook the world before with my anger
203
and now I want to shake the world with my ambition
204
and with my love for my music and my acting and generally for my comrades.
205
What was the hardest part?
206
The hardest part was knowing that I had the number one record in the country all across the boards.
207
I mean pop, rap, everything.
208
And I was in jail.
209
You know what I mean?
210
Knowing that I loved music and I couldn't be a part of it.
211
No more touring.
212
That sound of the crowd out there and no more common room service.
213
No more showering when you want to shower.
214
waking up and the noise and I can't tell this guy be quiet because it's not my house.
215
I'm in a house with hundreds of people and not being able to have my own space was the hardest part.
216
Not having any private space.
217
I'm very private.
218
I like to write in the bathroom, on the toilet alone, you know, just to get that privacy.
219
So imagine never having that privacy.
220
That was the hardest part.
221
I had a very...
222
How did you get treated in there?
223
I got treated to both extremes.
224
There were guards who hated me because I was black.
225
There was guards who hated me.
226
I mean, these are separate things.
227
One, just because I'm black.
228
One, just because I'm a rapper.
229
The other, because I got money.
230
You know what I mean?
231
And then I had prisoners who hated me for the same reasons.
232
Then I had prisoners who loved me.
233
as far as, you know, as much as love as they thought they was giving me
234
because of the things that I did and the way
235
that I did it and my music and the things that it said.
236
I had that type of thing.
237
I had people who were jealous because they knew I'd be back and they could see the fire, you know.
238
I had people who were as happy as me that I would be back.
239
You know I mean and they took it upon themselves to guide me
240
and to train me to say things And I remember man when you get out there you got to do this
241
Gotta do this everyday guys would tell me okay, why did you get in trouble and make me tell them
242
because I did this I did this and I did this and go now.
243
How are you not gonna do that again and make me say
244
Well the next time I'll do this I'll do this and I appreciate that

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
