Song Lyric Analysis
Hit Em Up
Tupac
1) I know the artist was very mad at a group of people music artists from the east coast. this song was a response they way east coast rappers were making fun of him while he was in prison, and to the people the thought may have set him up in a shooting. 2) The speaker in the song is just a first person, him calling out other music artists for wrongs he had felt done against him, and wanting to get a chance to get even with them for disrespecting him, or even shooting him. 3) The setting for which this song takes place is in their present time Los Angeles making the year 1996. 4) The emotions I feel when listening to this song is anger, rage, and I get a sense of betrayal from the people he is angry with. 5) This song doesn’t really make me think about …show more content…
Where plenty of murder occurs, No points to come, We bring drama to all you herds, Now go check the scenario, Little Ceas', I'll bring you fake G's to your knees, Coppin' pleas in de Janeiro, Little Kim is you, Coked up or doped up, Get your little Junior Whopper clique smoked up, What the !@#$? Is you stupid? I take money, crash and mash through Brooklyn, With my clique looting, shooting, and polluting your block, With fifteen shot, Cocked glock to your knot, Outlaw Mafia clique moving up another notch, And your Pop stars popped and get mopped and dropped, And all your fake @!$ east coast props, Brainstormed and locked
[E.D.I. Mean]
You's a beat biter, Pac style taker, I'll tell you to your face, you ain't @!$% but a faker, Soften than Alize with a chaser, 'bout to get murdered for the paper, E.D. I mean post the scene of the caper, Like a loc, with little Ceas' in a choke (uh), Toting smoke, we ain't no mother$#@*in' joke, Thug Life, %&@!*s better be known, Be approaching, In the wide open, gun smoking, No need for hoping, It's a battle lost, I gottem crossed as soon as the funk is bopping off, $%#^@, I hit 'em up
