There’s tons of influential artists but for me I’m going with Tupac. Probably a cliche answer to most but the life I witness him live I felt was a replica of mine. Three songs I can sit back and think to is Reincarnation, Mammas just a little girl, and Me against the world. Deep songs I really love
