Hip Hop is everywhere, even in the Vatican

While surfing the internet I stumbled over some intriguing information, hear this. Back in 2009, when Benedict XVI was Pope and MySpace was still popular, the Vatican released an official playlist representing the Catholic church. In between recordings of Benedict XVI and selections from Mozart, the Vatican included one of Tupac's most well known songs, the 1998 single Changes.

The song was originally recorded while Pac was still at Interscope records in 1992 and was produced by Deon Evans. Changes was later remixed in 1998. Changes reuses lines from I Wonder If Heaven Got A Ghetto and samples the 1986 hit The Way It Is by Bruce Hornsby and the Range, the chorus of The Way It Is was re-sung by Talent.
