Acoustic Rap?

Tupac Ft Nas-Thugz Mansion(Acoustic)

I find this song and video incredible. It combines to genres which are quite extremely different. There is a huge gap in the market for something like this as it turns what is normally seen as people shouting about guns and girls into something a lot more deep and meaningful. The video also works very well as it uses a very simple idea to convey a strong message. I think it is trying to portray the message of how anyone can get hurt by shootings and gang rivalry as well as showing that so many people are affected. By changing character faces but having the same goal it connotes a feeling of society and as every race is represented it powerfully shows how everyone could be affected. The pace is very slow to work with the song, and there is only a small focus on the performance putting emphasis on the narrative and message being portrayed.
