Answer:

<u>Parallelism</u>

Explanation:

Parallelism refers to the repetition of a chosen grammatical form within a sentence. It uses words, phrases or clauses that are grammatically similar or identical in structure, sound, meaning, or meter, with the purpose of showing that the stated ideas are equally important and to give a natural flow to the piece of writing.

The passage uses this literary device because some phrases and clauses have the same grammatical structure, such as <em>We </em><u><em>measured it</em></u><em> and </em><u><em>broke it </em></u><em>up; We were </em><u><em>born on it, we got killed on it, died on it</em></u>; and <em>being</em><u><em> born on it, working it, dying on it.</em></u>

2pac had a 'net positive' influence
Leni [432]

Answer:

2. He’s the man who single-handedly transformed a common epithet for a criminal into a source of masculine strength.

After recording two albums – the muddled 2Pacalypse Now and the slightly improved Strictly 4 My . – Shakur unveiled his crew  L.I.F.E., an acronym for The Hate U Gave Little Infants Everybody. At the time, it seemed like an unnecessary variation on the “gangster” trope that dominated West Coast rap at the time. However, his reimagining of a word that the Oxford Dictionary defines as “a violent person, especially a criminal” into an positive attribute resonated. 2Pac’s vision redefined the word “thug” into a man who triumphs over systemic and societal obstacles. By the end of 1994, Cleveland quintet B.O.N.E. Enterprises had renamed themselves Bone Thugs-N-Harmony; the word has been since been adopted by Young , Slim and too many others to mention.
