This was at the Coachella Festival last night. It was an intelligent way to bring 2pac back to life for a performance. Dr. Dre and Snoop also do some tracks together. Eminem and 50 Cent also perform.

my thought exactly...AMAZING! I saw the trend on twitter and seen everybody talking about it so I youtubed it and I was blown away! I bet that performance took Snoop back

That shit is crazy! i would have loved to see that live!

Wont try an chat shit, the hologram itself is fuckin sick, its crazy what technology can do today, but this just shows the music industrys true colours. Theyve finally got an artist they can permanantly attatch strings to an make em dance. It aint about pac, its about the hype, the trend and the money. He already got robbed of his money while he was alive, and motherfuckers are still in his pockets now hes dead.

I completely disagree with you. This was about none of that. You think they used this to hype the show? It was speculated that they were going to have Pac performing as a hologram. No one actually knew it was going to happen. You think they made a huge profit from that performance. It probably cost a ton of money to put that together. They got all the money from Dre, Snoop, Kendrick Lamar, 50 cent, and Eminem performing. While I'm typing I'll add out of no where that Eminem has lost his flow and delivery. It was shocking how terrible he sounded.

RA's thoughts about this....

 

I don't think they used it to hype the show, they used it for the hype the show will now get. I don't think they made a huge profit off the performance, but I think this was used to find a lane to make money in the future. I personally just don't like the idea of a dead guys body being puppeteered on a stage, fair enough i have no idea how pac would feel about it, but that fact should be more reason to not do it. I just think you're given a life to live and whatever impression you make while breathing is your impression, other people shouldn't be adding to it after your death, its not really their place. People are acting like tupacs done another show, but in reality, someones dressed a lightshow up as pac, which, while an amazing use of technology, its fucked up. I guess I just like term, rest for the dead.

Not real sure how I feel about it. Equal parts creepy and cool? But yeah, Pac probably wouldn't have been on stage with Dre. That beef was still brewing. And if he'd seen what his buddy Snoop did/said after he no longer had to fear Pac, he wouldn't have been up there with him either.

I didnt read all these posts just saw the video on YouTube, technology is fuckin nuts. Dont know how I feel about it (not that it matters.) How you gonna say "REST IN PEACE" and then have hologram performances of said artist. Kinda creepy
