When it comes to being a part of hip-hop culture, Justin Bieber wants you to know his tastes are beyond a steady diet of Kanye West and Drake. That's why he decided to cover the acoustic version of 2Pac's "Thugz Mansion for BBC Radio 1.
Dressed up in a Southern Ontario dinner jacket alongside a guitarist, Biebs raps Pac's second and third verses from the original, while also handling Anthony Hamilton's sung chorus section.
Whether Pac's spirit came to him in a dream and told him to make this acoustic cover a reality is still up for debate, though it could have easily been the 1.42 litres of milk he may have drank before playing the session.
