2Pac’s "Changes" is the ultimate social justice "patch notes" for a glitched world. Recorded in ’92 but released in ’98, it flips Bruce Hornsby’s piano riff into a raw report on the "scuffle and struggle" of the streets.
For Gen Z, it’s the blueprint for conscious content: Pac calls out systemic poverty, police brutality, and the "war on drugs" while manifesting a Black President decades before it happened. It’s a vibe check on the loop of history—reminding us that the world doesn’t "auto-update" to be better; we have to manually install the change ourselves by treating each other with more respect.
