TDE president Punch got a lot of people talking over the weekend after tweeting “Cardi B is 2Pac.” Now, Terrence Henderson has decided to go into detail about his reason for the statement, courtesy of an essay for DJ Booth.
“She embodies some of those same qualities,” he says. “She’s a straight shooter right from the hip. Her interviews are as raw as her music. She’s politically incorrect, yet, her charisma means you cannot stop watching and listening, whether you agree or disagree. She says exactly what she’s feeling at the time the question is delivered.”
“Because 2Pac touched people on such a deep level emotionally, many of us feel it’s our personal responsibility to make sure he isn’t presented as anything less than perfect,” he says. “This is often why any type of comparison to 2Pac is regarded as complete and utter blasphemy.”
