The similiarities of XXXTentacion and Tupac Shakur’s life

Tupac Shakur’s and and Jahseh Onfroy as the popular name called XXXTentacion was a famous rapper at his era. Both were dead at young age. Tupac’s at 25 years old and XXXTentacion at 20 years old.
The surface-level similarities between Tupac and XXXTentacion make it somewhat understandable. For starters, there was a shared volatility between them. Both were very notable for their I-don’t- care attitudes. Take a look back at the unforgettable footage of Tupac, with a bandana tied around his head and clad in a Detroit Red Wings jersey, spitting at reporters after exiting the Supreme Court building in New York City in July 1994. XXX on the other hand, operated with complete impetuousness. He fought fans. His willingness to say anything to anyone resulted in him disrespecting Drake and Drizzy’s mother.
’Pac and XXX were frequently breaking the law. Tupac’s at April 1993 arrest for trying to hit rapper Chauncey Wynn with a baseball bat during a concert at Michigan State University. At October 1993 incident in which ’Pac was charged for shooting two off-duty police officers in Atlanta. In March 1994, he was convicted for his role in the assault of director Allen Hughes in Los Angeles the previous year following his ring from 1993’s Menace ll Society. As  for XXXTentacion, he was charged with home invasion, robbery, aggravated battery and possession of a firearm in November 2015.
In fact, the controversy only brought them more attention. Back in 1995, Tupac became the first artist to have an album debut atop the Billboard 200 chart while imprisoned. The album, Me Against the World, was ’Pac’s first to reach No. 1 and it remained in that spot for four consecutive weeks—his longest stint there. By the time XXX’s “Look at Me!” peaked at No. 34 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart last April, the rapper was just being released from jail. Five months later, his debut album, 17, debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 while its follow-up, ?, debuted at No. 1 this past March. The news surrounding him, as disturbing as it was, seemed to bolster his profile.
Both were also aware of their influence. Interviews sparked something inside of Tupac, who used his time in front of the camera to show how bright he was and display a willingness to speak up for his community—Black youth, in particular. As a sign of the times, XXXTentacion used social media platforms like Instagram to speak directly to fans who hung onto his every word. Tupac and XXXTentacion seemed to becamethe most influenced rapper at his short lives.

The short story titled The magic shop by H.G Wells is an interesting fiction story. This story tells a lot of unique new things. Besides the interesting things I also found moral values like: 1. The intelligent parents will understand how to protect and give everything what their son need. 2. Always listen to exprert. They will tell You what can't be done and why then do it. 3. Every human being has a mind that can develop imagination even sometimes beyond reason. By: Febiana Kusumastuti/183211047

The Moral Values of RIP Van Winkle By : Washington Irving The moral values that I have seen from 'Rip Van Winkle story is that time goes on and things keep changing whether a person is there or not. In the story, Rip takes a 21 year nap, but time does not stop the world keeps changing. Even though Rip is not aware of all of the changes going on, its still happen. When he awakes, Rip finds that there are some changes that he likes. For example, when he was going to the place where there had been a school and asked the crowd that had gathered and somebody said that everything had changed and finally he found his daughter. There were also some changes he didn't like, such as his dog getting older and his children growing up although Rip Van Winkle had been upset because he missed many important events. So the moral of the story is time does not wait the world will keep moving forward and changing . These things will happen even if someone is not ready for them! Ot...

B. 24

SYAHRUL MUKAROM 183211051 b.24 My opinion about the story is short tittle and very simple, but difficult to understanding it. I don’t know about a reason of the author to give tittle “b24”. This is make the reader ask about it, and make the story very interesting. The reader must know that we can take many moral messages from the story. About the law, injustice, and the rich. The parcipants of the story are Thief as suspected, Lady Mannering as a murderer, lord mannering as victim, and judge.       About the thief, although he was thief  because he have one reason and direction to do it. To continue he life, he have not the work that time.
