Pac: Transformation from Beta to Alpha

This was meant for the other thread that's now closed, but I'll post it here:
People love to hate on Pac.
Yet listen to how Jada Pinkett talks about him to this day. She's been married to one of the most successful stars in the world for the past twenty years, but she's still in love with Tupac.
Then you have the "fake gangsta" claims. He definitely played up that image, but that was because he knew it would help him gain popularity with that demographic which he could then use to make positive changes in the black community. A lot of this was known before, but the phone conversations Monster Kody released recently between the two helped shed a lot of light on this.
Listen to this if you've never heard it. Really profound look into Tupac's pscyhe:
Related, funny how Tupac used to have casual phone conversations with notoriously ruthless LA Crips (Kody), yet he was "soft".
Another recent story gives some insight into Tupac's character, and that's the indictment of Jimmy Henchman. The truth about the extent of his extorting and strong arming rappers is being revealed, yet Pac was never intimidated by him.
Even after he had Tupac shot, it didn't stop him. Many of you probably remember this line from the song Against All Odds on Pac's last album: "Promised a payback, Jimmy Henchman, in due time".
