True true. Thats definitely a good point.
I understand why some people have problems with it morally. When I first saw it I was in a trance stuck between thoughts of "Is this real life?" and "This can't be real life". Then they started up Hail Mary and I was feeling like "too much real life".
But through the performance and Pac being placed in with the rest of the set, I started to appreciate it for what it was. A celebration of the mans life and music as well as letting everyone know that while he is gone he is not forgotten. They had him on stage this weekend with new artists and old artists and he was STILL more powerful on stage through his lyrics in Hail Mary.
Everyone is looking at it from a standpoint of money and whatnot, but as a fan or music, I was more appreciative of the fact that in 2012 I just sat and saw Dre, Snoop, 50, Kendrick Lamar, Pac, and Eminem on stage at one concert.
Coachella is an event that sells out EVERY year, so I HIGHLY doubt they needed Pac to sell tickets. So money and whoring out Pac's life and legacy is something that was not done last night.
The man was being celebrated. And even though you can't bring the dead back to life and should let the passed rest in peace, I don't see any malicious intent behind what happened.
Its not like they were slandering his name or planning on using this hologram to make multiple appearances to try and make money off Pac with a gimmick.

It looks like it was one of those motion capture perfomances and was just pre-recorded, then projected thru hologram.
Found a guy with the same build as Pac, made sure he had all his mannerisms down, then digitized the face. Its been done in movies, like with "Arnold" in Terminator Salvation and X-men The Last Stand when Professor X and Magneto were younger. It seems most logical IMO.

I can understand not thinking its right because its disrespectful to the deceased. But if you can continue to release the mans music without him being here to say a word about it then it shouldn't bother anyone seeing him digitally on stage.
If the standard were to always have been 3D holograms since before we were born, NOBODY would be objective to it right now. If this concept was created 70 years ago and we all grew up seeing it on a regular basis we'd be fine.
If you go back in time 200-300 years and play a dead mans voice for everyone to hear they'll label you a witch and try to hang you for some @@*+ they think isn't right. But yet we do it now don't we? We all play Biggie, Pac, MJ, etc. That concept is no different than this hologram. Its just visual rather than just audio playing through speakers.
This hologram is something a lot of people haven't seen before, especially with someone who has passed away. But just because you've never experienced something like that, it doesn't make it wrong.
IF people have no problem with them releasing and selling unreleased Pac music, then they shouldn't have a problem with him being digitally re created for a 2 song set.
Thats all I'm saying...
okay i understand but when you listen to his music after he has passed its still his music and his voice has not been altered. the problem i have is that with the hologram they have recreated him physically. with music their words will always live forever and its okay to replay their songs. but in my opinion its not morally right to recreate somebody physically with a hologram. if they recreated him with a statue or something i dont see a problem with that since they are commemorating him. but to recreate him for a concert is something else and i dont agree with it. but if you agree with it thats ur opinion and i respect it. but i wont support tupac holograms[h3]

How can this be disrepectful when it was done by Dre and Snoop. He wasnt @#%@!#@ with Dre at the time of his death but Snoop was like his brother.

Funny to read the opinions in this thread compared to the real time replies in /16 when the $%! first happened...
...this is entirely new stream of revenue.
Imagine the effin' possibilities...
...the program, get with it.

me and my cuzzo were smoked out watching the live stream.
I'm sitting there and I say "son what if Pac just dropped out the sky with his arms spread out and started spitting 50's Hail Mary verse and they did a megamix or some #*+%?"
*Hail Mary bell sound*
us: o_o
