Changes is a hip hop song by the late Tupac Shakur originally recorded during his tenure at Interscope records which was rerecorded and remixed between 1995-96.

The song was a #1 hit in Norway and in The Netherlands and reached the top ten in the singles charts of several other countries.

It is one of his most notable and popular songs. Released posthumously on his album Greatest Hits, the song addresses issues close to 2Pac's era of influence, notably racism, police brutality, drugs, and gang violence.

In addition, the song heavily samples the 1986 hit "The Way It Is" by Bruce Hornsby and the Range.

Top 10 Social/ Political Songs of Our Time - We hear songs everyday, whether on the radio, television, or from music sources such as CD's, iPod, and other sources. Music touches us in a unique way.

Music touches us.

Tupac Shakur's Best Songs - Tupac Shakur is one of the best rappers of all time. He was tragically shot in 1996 yet he is still producing CD's to this date. This can be done because he had recorded over 10,000 unreleased songs before he died. Lyrics are taken out of all those songs and used to make new songs which develop into album releases. That is pretty amazing. Tupac was a different kind of rapper than what you see today. He sometimes rapped about the same stuff rapppers rap about today but mostly he rapped about life. I dont really consider his music to be rap but some do. Well i have compiled a list of tupac's best songs.

Best Top 10 Old & New School Rappers - 1. Tupac: Although a lot of people differ about Tupac being a great lyricist, it' still obvious that Tupac made a big impact in the rap game as far as his lyrics. Songs such as Brenda's got a baby, So many Tears and Hail Mary showed his ability to be versatile and descriptive on a song. The detail he went into on his songs earns him a spot as a top lyricist. While other artist used cold blooded metaphors, Tupac kept it raw and gritty by getting right to the point. Sometimes the best lyrics are those that don't require much thinking, straight and direct is what Tupac was all about.

Tupac 7 Day Theory - The title of the new album by Makaveli (Tupac) is The 7 Day Theory.   He was shot on September 7th; and survived on the 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, and"died" the 13th. Hence the title The 7 Day Theory.  Tupac's album All Eyes on Me was released on Feb.13, 1996. Tupac "died" on Sept.13, 1996. It is quite a coincidence that the two dates are exactly 7 months apart. Tupac officially died at 4:03 PM. 4+3 = 7 Also he "died" at an age of 25 years. 2+5 = 7. It seems as if seven is Tupac's number.

• Every Picture Tells a Story, Don’t It? - By KEN JOHNSON - Published: October 29, 2009 - Rock ’n’ roll and photography need each other — or, at least, rock musicians need photographers. You can’t be a star if you don’t have an image. But what makes a good rock photograph is something to ponder, and “Who Shot Rock & Roll: A Photographic History, 1955 to the Present” at the Brooklyn Museum offers an excellent opportunity to do so.

• Would MJ be happy with film? - Dave Richards - The famous Joni Mitchell line from "Big Yellow Taxi" never ages, does it? - "You don't know what you've got till it's gone," she sang and though her message was environmental -- about paving paradise with a parking lot -- the notion applies to pop stars, too. Our fascination never ends with died-too-young artists such as John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Tupac, Jim Morrison and Elvis Presley.
