2 Pac, “Papa’z Song”
Before 2 Pac released the hit single “Dear Momma,” he rapped about the hardship of growing up without a father. But while the first half of the song speaks to the anger of growing up fatherless, 2 Pac raps as if he is a father explaining the reasons for his absence on the second half of the song. It’s an emotional look at how unplanned parenthood can affect so many lives.
