This is so insanely cool and fun!!!

Here’s a Tupac song about my friend Ben who, against all odds was able to learn concept design and work for Blizzard Entertainment as a mid level concept artist:

Verse 1:

I'ma tell this story of my friend Ben He was never meant to be a designer in all money he had to spend His dream was, loved, but thought to be impossible so it seemed But all these "Nos" only drove him to scream do or die

Chorus:

Ben had a dream, never let it go And even when they said no, no, no He made it happen, sure and slow He earned his way, against all the odds My friend Ben, showed the world what he gots And made it in that industry, never stopped till he went pro

Verse 2:

With no artistic background, no resources at hand He studied his erases and textbooks and clocked in hours and hours Finally Ben got himself a portfolio, it was stronger than steel And he made sure his future was brighter than all the old tales

Chorus:

Ben had a dream, never let it go And even when they said no, no, no He made it happen, sure and slow He earned his way, against all the odds My friend Ben, showed the world what he gots And made it in that industry, never stopped till he went pro

Verse 3: Findin another job would be an easy feat But Ben kept his dream alive, tryin' to be more than just man of the street So he stayed focus, kept the faith and stayed true And it nearly paid off, 'cause that very day he got hired by Blizzard too

Chorus:

Ben had a dream, never let it go And even when they said no, no, no He made it happen, sure and slow He earned his way, against all the odds My friend Ben, showed the world what he gots And made it in that industry, never stopped till he went pro
