He was fiercely outspoken, in a way that did not demean others
Tupac was candid about issues that others may find uncomfortable.
Though he was raw and uncut with his approach, he was noted as being well-spoken and seasoned when being interviewed.
As documented by New York radio personality Angie Martinez in 2016 in a Billboard article, Tupac addressed the East Coast-West Coast beef:
Angie: I’m sitting with Tupac in his crib. We need to talk about the East Coast-West Coast thing. Aren’t you from New York?
Tupac: That’s where I was born, but that’s not where I learned how to make money. This is where I got laced. This is where I became a man.
Martinez commented, “I could see that he was far more articulate and calculated than I was, more seasoned.”
Angie: Are you saying that you do not have a beef with New York?
Tupac: Nah, I have a beef with anybody in my way, anybody that feel like they could criticize me because they bought my album. That feel like just because they read an interview that they know who I am. I have a beef with them interfering with me getting my money. I got a beef with Wendy Williams saying I got raped in jail because that disrespected me, my family and what I represent. I got a beef with New York rappers just saying whatever they wanna say about where I’m from.
