Smith, co-host of the show (8 p.m. EDT) at Hollywood's Kodak Theater with wife
Jada Pinkett-Smith, said he witnessed the phenomenon recently while in Africa. Touring a village in Mozambique, he came across a shack on which someone had scrawled the name of slain rapper Tupac Shakur.

"I was asking the kids: What is it about Tupac? Why is that there? I kept asking why. I told them I was the realest. I let them know Tupac wasn't representing like I was and like I am. Fuck thug life. The Prince started all that rap shit. He ain't even westcoast. They were saying we want to dress like you dress, wear all the things you wear, talk how you talk. "

Will Smith hates Pac because his wife loves 2pac more than Will Smith. She always did and always will. She cries whenever she talks about Pac. Plus, on top of that, she wanted to name one of their kids "Tupac", but Will Smith didnt want that. I think he's super white washed.

Will's befuddlement to why 'Tupac Shakur' was written on a shack in an african village essentially answers his own question.
Tupac Shakur's messaged addressed the importance of the question 'why'. Why are black people shooting eachother in the street, why do kids have mothers who are dope fiends, why more black males are indeed criminals and not doctors.
The struggle. I dont think WIll Smith has ever rapped about the struggle as pertaining to the African American experience in Slavery.
Tupac's very first album, when he was only 20, was arguably the most socially conscious rap album to date. Will Smith be rapping about how is parents dont understand how he stole and got a ticket in his parents ferrari.
Tupac didnt have a ferrari, Will, he had a one T-shirt, and slept on a matress on a floor in a room with nothing in it.
So, to Will, here is an apology for Tupac for presenting to you, the public, what was presented to him.

It's not disrespectful in the slightest.

He's merely astounded at how Hip Hop (note, he didn't just rnquire about Tupac) transcends so many boundaries.
