Her attempt to sell crack cocaine results in robbery, and eventually she views prostitution as her only way to earn money and survive. Her mother scolds her severely, and Brenda becomes so ashamed of herself that she runs away from home.īrenda is now forced to live alone, and unsuccessfully seeks employment. She throws the baby into a 'trash heap' but later retrieves it when she hears it crying. Tupac explains that her family wouldn't care if she gave birth, as long as they got their cut of the government assistance.Īlthough she believes that her cousin (her baby's father) will stay with her and help her raise their child, he is merely a molester, and abandons her before she gives birth on the bathroom floor. Brenda is impregnated by her unnamed boyfriend, who is also her cousin, but she is successfully able to hide her pregnancy. Her family is very poor and her father is a drug addict. He also notes that she has had virtually no education, and calls this a "damn shame" because she has little hope of a future. The verse begins with Tupac telling a group that he has heard about Brenda's pregnancy. Much of the rest of the song is one long verse performed by Tupac. The opening consists of a duet singing the song's title twice. Shakur wrote the song while filming the feature film Juice, after reading a newspaper article about a 12-year-old girl who became pregnant by her cousin and threw the baby into a trash compactor. Using Brenda to represent young mothers in general, Shakur criticises the low level of support from the baby's father, the government, and society in general. Like many of Shakur's songs, "Brenda's Got a Baby" draws from the plight of the impoverished. The song explores the issue of teen pregnancy and its effect on young mothers and their families. The song, which features R&B singer Dave Hollister singing background vocals with Roniece Levias, is about a 12-year-old girl named Brenda who lives in a ghetto and has a baby she can't support. The song was first released as a promotional CD single a month prior to album's release, then in February 1992 it was re-released as a double A-side single with the song If My Homie Calls.
" Brenda's Got a Baby" is a song by American rapper 2Pac from his debut album 2Pacalypse Now.
