Composition Book Chronicles - Strictly 4 My …..

On the 32nd anniversary of its release, the image of 2Pac’s “Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z. is still burned in my memories. While sad that 2Pac was murdered only three years after this album came out, it is truly amazing how much quality material he was able to make in such a short period of time. The album is a solid listen to date and contains my favorite 2Pac song, “I Get Around”

⚫ Dans l’histoire de la musique, le rap tient une place importante (et à part).

Qu’on aime ou pas, c’est un genre musical qui a également ses codes graphiques, qui plus est lorsqu’on parle du rap de la côte ouest des États-Unis (plus communément appelé Gangsta Rap).

Le style est dérivé du rap Hardcore, né en Californie à la fin des années 80.

De très grands artistes ont émergés de ce mouvement Gansta Rap : Tupac, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg entre autres – il y en a beaucoup et de très grands.

Leurs pochettes d’album sont presque à chaque fois des œuvres d’art qui illustrent l’engagement de leurs auteurs.

L’album "Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z…" de Tupac est une pure réussite graphique (reprenant toutes les tendances et couleurs de l’époque, le visuel est tout aussi puissant que les paroles, c’est un brûlot politique et esthétique).

⚫ Living Tree Record propose aujourd’hui l’album de Kameron, rappeur new-yorkais engagé.

LTR s’associe au label ASSASSIN ANT PROD qui regroupe plusieurs rappeurs (il y aura donc, plus tard, une nouvelle incursion dans cet univers fascinant).

Lorsque j’en ai conçu la pochette, je me suis inspiré des set-lists de Janet Jackson qui proposent des interludes entre chaque titre. J’ai imaginé que Kameron en aurait composé un entre chaque opus.

LTR et Kameron proposent une pochette axée sur un visuel simple et fort. Un portrait N&B du rappeur fait en studio. Un portrait et un regard.

Tupac Amaru Shakur (Lesane Parish Crooks, June 16, 1971 – September 13, 1996) known as 2Pac and briefly Makaveli, was a rapper. He is considered one of the most influential and successful rappers of all time. He is among the best-selling music artists, having sold more than 75 million records worldwide. Much of his music has been noted for addressing contemporary social issues that plagued inner cities, and he is considered a symbol of activism against inequality.

He was born in Manhattan but relocated to the Bay Area. He moved to Los Angeles to further pursue his music career. By the time he released his debut album 2Pacalypse Now, he had become a central figure in West Coast Hip Hop, introducing social issues in the genre at a time when gangsta rap was dominant in the mainstream. He achieved further critical and commercial success with his follow-up albums Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z...and the critically acclaimed Me Against the World, which has been considered his magnum opus.

He was inducted into the Hip-Hop Hall of Fame. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility. Rolling Stone named him in its list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time. On June 7, 2023, he received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He gained considerable success as an actor, with his starring roles in Juice, Poetic Justice, Gridlock’d, and Gang Related.

He is credited as an important figure in hip-hop culture, and his prominence in pop culture, in general, has been noted. Dotdash, formerly About.com, while ranked fifth among the greatest rappers.

In 1997, UC Berkeley offered a course led by a student titled “History 98: Poetry and History of Tupac Shakur”. In April 2003, Harvard University co-sponsored the symposium “All Eyez on Me: Tupac Shakur and the Search for the Modern Folk Hero”. The papers presented cover his wide-ranging influence from entertainment to sociology. English scholar Mark Anthony Neal assessed his death as leaving a “leadership void amongst hip-hop artists”, as this “walking contradiction” helps, Neal explained, “make being an intellectual accessible to ordinary people.”#africanhistory365 #africanexcellence
