Apparently the staff at Blender Magazine aren't big fans of Tupac Shakur as they have voted him the "most overrated person in music" in their October issue which hits news stands next week.
Apart from Tupac they also listed other overrated artists, places and trends in music but 'Pac topped their list.
They did acknowledge that he was a decent rapper with "insane rock-star charisma," but they say he also "larded records with self-mythologizing, mediocre filler."
One has to wonder how much of the "mediocre filler" is a direct result of poorly executed posthumous albums and remixes released by his estate in recent years. Are they damaging his image and legacy? Drop your comments below and let us know what you think.
Rock group Pink Floyd and "The Grammy Awards" are also mentioned on the list.
