Tupac Talks Donald Trump & Greed in America in 1992 Interview | MTV News
– This world is such a, and when I say this world I mean it, I don’t mean in ideal sense, I mean in everyday, every little thing you do. It’s such a gimme gimme gimme! Everybody back off, you know everybody’s
taught that from school. Everywhere, big business, you want to be successful, you want to be like Trump? Gimme gimme gimme! Push push push push! Step step step! Crush crush crush! That’s how it all is, it’s like nobody ever stops. I feel like, instead of us just being like “Slavery’s bad, slavery’s
bad, bad whitey, bad whitey!” I mean, let’s stop that. Everybody’s smart enough to
know that we’ve been slighted. and we want ours. I don’t mean by ours, 40 acres and mule because we passed that. But we need help, I mean for
us to be on our own two feet, us meaning youth, or us
meaning black people, whatever you want to take it for, for us to be on our own
two feet we do need help. We have been here, we
have been a good friend. If you want to make it a
relationship type thing, we have been there, and
now we deserve our payback. It’s like you got a friend that you don’t never look out for. You know, you now dressed up in jewels, America’s got jewels, they
got paid and everything, lending money to everybody except us. And it’s like everybody need a little help on their way to being,
you know, self reliant. You know what I’m saying? That’s the whole thing about the album, about the Special Olympics, everybody need a little
something to be independent. No independent persons just grew up, and was born independent. You worked, and you learned team work, and you learned cooperation, and unity, and struggle, and then
you became independent. We have to teach that, and instill that. Why is it that they want to do that? I mean if this is truly a melting pot, and a country where we care about, and Lady Liberty got her hand like this, she really love us then
we need to be like that. It needs to be the black kids, and if there’s a white
person who got money, then he need to help’em. He need to help black kids, Mexican kids, Korean kids, whatever. But they need to be real, and
they need to be before we all die, and then you say “I made a mistake, we should have game them some money. We really should have
helped these folks.”. It’s going to be too late,
you know what I’m saying? Then that’s when you
gotta pay your own karma. And that’s what God make you punish, when God punishes you, because I feel like there’s too much money here. I mean nobody should be
hitting lotto for 36 million, and we got people starving in the streets. That is not idealistic, that’s just real. That is stupid. There is no way Michael
Jackson should have, or whoever Jackson, should
have a million, thousand, triple billion dollars and
then there’s people starving. There’s no way, there’s no way! That these people should own planes, and there are people
that don’t have houses, apartments, shacks, drawers, pants. – [Interviewer] Certain people will say, well, they earned it., now you go out and you earn it for yourself. – If they earned it, I
think that that’s good, I think they deserve it., but even if you earned it you still owe. Cause look at me, I don’t
have that mega money, but I feel guilty walking by somebody, I got to give him some mail. And if I know I got $3,000
in my pocket I feel like it’s wrong to give that person a quarter, or a dollar, it’s wrong. Only you know what you got in your pocket, and that’s wrong. No matter what they do, they take it and drink it then they take it and drink it. But I mean you got, you understand? And we all know how hard
it is, and it’s not about if you’re good, or you bad. So since it’s not about if
you’re good, or you bad, we know that because he don’t
got don’t mean he’s bad. Or don’t mean he’s a criminal,
don’t mean he’s crazy, or a drug addict or none of that. It just means he don’t got. Ain’t it bad you got,
I mean can you imagine somebody having 32 million dollars? 32! 32 million dollars, and
this person has nothing. And you can sleep? You can still go to the movies? These are the type of people
that get humanitarian awards. Millionaires, how can
they be humanitarians by the fact that they’re millionaires, and there’s so many poor people, shows how inhumane they are. You know what I’m
saying, and that bugs me. Not saying that I’m
never going to be rich, it’s a struggle and I
think everybody deserve. And I think there’s a
way to pay these people, I think there is a way, it just takes it to be revoluntionary. And it takes to do something
out of the ordinary, you know what I’m saying? I think if we just said, okay I got an idea, no more porno buildings, you know what I’m saying,
lets build houses. Or no more polo games, let’s
build houses for poor people. Or look, okay, I know you’re rich, I know you got 40 billion dollars, but can you just keep it to one house? You only need one house. And if you only got two kids, can you just keep it to two rooms? I mean why have 52 rooms
and you know there’s somebody with no room. It just don’t make sense to me, it don’t. And then these people celebrate Christmas, they got big trees, huge trees,
all the little trimmings, everybody got gifts, and
there’s somebody starving. And they having a white Christmas, they having a great Christmas, eggnog and the whole nine. That’s not fair to me.
Tupac may your soul be reborn in Me.for sure how can we have billionaires in the world ,yet there are people who starving out side there. This is total greed .and total greedinedss.Oh God
Wish I was living in the early 90s, the late 2010s really sucks.
Trump can take a class on humanity here.. Stupid fool. RIP Pac you were way ahead of your time.
Trump been in news for years believe shug knight jr and who ever this man is dead knowbody hides for this many years knowbody
He was so correct….
PREACH!
Pac heart is good… yet his music talk about robbing people, killing. Plus not everybody works hard. If I work hard to make my megaBillions, I'm NOT wanting to hand it to some lazy-joker each month.
Tupac heart was always for peace,love and society
He doesn't know what he is talking about.

Pac vs Trump 2020 woulda been to perfect rip pac
CAPUT GOOF
I dont know but whenever i listen to this guy it touches my soul than my preacher
The reality is a class war
This man was very well spoken.He made a lot of sense.There's plenty in this country for everyone. Too many people think only of themselves..
Pac just talk never help no one just brought beef
They can Kill the flesh but not the a spirit it lives on
I didn't know Tupac was a socialist.
Tell the truth 2pac
straight truth.
"Before we all end up dead and then you realize a mistake was made", prophetic much?
The greedy capitalist he takes aim at is Trump. Pac knew first.
Mancha Allh. This brother was a muslim…
Tupac.
This is why I rock and salute Tupac! And this is why he is number one on my top 5!
St8 facts.
Got bless him
Tupac was a socialist… truly a pro black, pro unity, dude. His end was untimely.
Tupac was warning us about trump since 92
Filmed on my birthday
Thanks Bro
What a smart caring young man
Our God never intended for some to have too much and others begging for bread. God will punish these people with His money. He said it is I that giveth thy power to get death. You just can't hoard God’s money and be at peace
A rapist giving advice, that’s a hoot. How much money did he donate to his own kind?
Pac acts like all white ppl have money
And this is why they killed him. He was Good. He had a heart and he was awake.
Special Olympics
Why do you think he was silenced
27 years on, this legendary man is still ahead of his time in the USA 🙌🙌🙌🙌
PAC been told us about Trump…
This is serious wisdom. Just crispy clean and purely truth!
I guess it's ok cuz Pac did his share for the community and would certainly have done way more had he lived longer. But I find it funny he's banging on about poverty when he's got two big ass over the top gold chains around his neck haha
Pac is 100 percent right commen sense people its comment sense and Pac had it also Pac had a heart and most stars are heartless . wonder what mtv blocked out when they skipped it
You should see the infinite millionaires the federal banks supposedly arent federal they are private bussines and are legaly allowed to create money as they please and get paid for it. People buy the propertys but its the federal banks that control money and the prices so its rigged propertys are to expensive in a land of the free people should get land to live in where are people shpposed to live if they rent allowed to build or create shelter in private spaces or anywhere?
Man, Pac talking Trump 1992.
Everything the man said was true. If we followed his logic the world would be a great place. It is now but not where it should be. Its sad. Years ago I was working dricing ti a job an I saw an old man and woman walking down road with a cart. They looked poir amd hungry obviously. I was on the ohone with my wife. I told her what I saw and felt bad for them. She had me turn around amd give them some money. I did and they were greatful. I think about them now amd again if they ok. Been lotta years since. I didnt have much then but Point is: Helping makes both better peoolle and lets people know you care
And it's still going on today… Wealthy people will continue to walk by the homeless while the poor people try to give them a hand. It's the poor trying to help the poor because we know what it's like not to have.
Man he would’ve helped a lot now🙏🏽❤️
He knew trump would be president missah
Rest in power ,brother you were a messenger of peace and revolution ,comrade ,the world needs you more than ever
Still no differnt after nearly 30years such a shame
what a load of crap
1 in 1992 Donald trump owned half of new York
and rocky was in its prime haha please get a life
Help yourself instead of waiting for others to do it for you. After years or decades of this, it's time to stop. Giving people money is dumb and won't encourage them to make their own money.
2pac is the REAL deal hes right on all he says
I cant stand Kanye
I'm glad you're speaking up but as migrant female Hispanic I grew up in the hood, I cleaned houses as a second job while I went to school. Many that grew up with me are still there living off perpetual welfare
666 Vi.Vi.Vi
😭😭😭😭😭Tupac was way ahead of his time
Love and miss that dude
Damn I hate he died
Giving people money without effort is no solution. It’s just taking from the workers to the non-workers. No more loopholes. Because giving loopholes is exactly the same as giving the poor money except you call it a tax break but your another azz trying to get a handout when you did not work for it.
Who ever dislike this video can suck my fucking Dick
This approach works everytime. 🙂
Nowadays black white etc race complain about everything, Pac here is not complaining here he's telling the truth and doing somthing about it. The rest of us are just complaining and don't do shit!
This is why HE is and will always be the KING🙌🏽👏🏼💕🎶
Today, there is no empathy or compassion anymore….. conservative ideologies is all about authority, greed, elitism, meritocracy etc.
Took him out before the new wave of entertainment artists, you’re seeing the end product now, where there’s no story, knowledge, or even knowledge to be questioned, it’s all about who sounds coolest or who can produce the most pleasure consumerism is being a pleasure addict without drug use
Everyone wanted to be like Trump, that's why now everyone hates him…exceot for those of us who don't carry hate in our hearts
32 million dollars will only feed and house 16 people for a lifetime, his ideas about how "rich people " should behave are unrealisric
notice he starts to tighten the purse strings when he starts talking about his money
Pac brazil
Prophet who came to speak against oppression.
💐💐💐⭐2Pac 💐💐💐
MTV full of sh%t..
The way we can honor and live up to his wish is if sooner or later there's a revolution carried out against America's oligarchy, coz its full of shit
The realest interview I ever saw…. you don't see interviews like this anymore rip Pac
I am Tupac, cause I'm as real as it gets. 💪🏿🖤
Ppl are like this still today
I been saying 40 acres and a mule! Even before I watched this interview bruh…
Had to thumbs down this vid even though I love the mans music. Idealistically I couldn’t disagree more. I believe in hard work and enjoying what I work. The lord helps those that help themselves so why would I give any one that won’t work for it my money. PAC had a huge house and he didn’t just give money to every bum he saw because he would have been broke before he got to his car in the parking lot. He drove luxury cars took lavish vacations and yes owned multiple homes. It’s easy to get all philosophical and preachy but when you don’t practice what you preach you are a hypocrite anyone can look these facts up I’m not wrong. Been bumpin pac for ever and he clowns broke rappers and flaunts his money harder then almost anyone. People need opportunities not hand outs. If you work for it you appreciate the value of it. And even if I won the lottery I know the value of a dollar and wouldn’t give anyone anything but the opportunity to earn money the same way I have all my life.
tupac for president
I know what mtv is trying to do with the title but still awsome watch and listen tupac
But yet he has two chains on and made millions. Go figure!
I love you too Tupac for everything
Feed the hungry cloth the naked …. do gods work
mega money lol😂😂
His wisdom n knowledge was very impacting! We miss you Pac
Tupac was not just a great rapper he had an intellectual mind. There will never be another Tupac Shakur.
Michael Jackson gave away more than 300 milion dollars
The world lost a good person, we’ll mourn this dude forever
Y'all are sheep 🙄 talking about how great he is and this message. He's wearing a mil in gold talking about how other people are greedy
Sounds kinda like socialism a little.
I am white, and I grew up poor. There are rich blacks too. 2pac is talking like a communist!
I love ❤️ u POC
You live forever
So true. Crush and crush we all die. How are you going to live and know that daddy trump killed everything. So true if you earned it, take it, but give to the people. Without the people, you cease to exist.
Garmon theres no way im giving my $10 to some homeless man thats smoking a dart on the side of the street 😂
