Source text - English 2Pac
Beginning his career in the early 1990s as a member of the Oakland rap-funksters Digital Underground, 2Pac rose to become perhaps the single most controversial figure in rap music, easily equal in popularity and notoriety to Snoop Dogg on the West Coast and sometime rival Notorious B.I.G. out East. Taking his moniker from a South American revolutionary, 2Pac managed to embrace themes of black self-determination and social conscience without dulling the edge of his thug image. Achieving almost unrivalled popularity while alive, 2Pac had a penchant for religious and iconic motifs, ensuring his status as a rap martyr after his murder in 1996.
Abba
Not many pop groups end up on postage stamps, as Abba has in its native Sweden; but then again, few groups become their homeland's most identifiable export. The group's stratospheric success was built on a foundation of buoyant, exquisitely arranged and produced pop music. Although they called it a day in the early 1980s, Abba lives on in the form of popular tribute bands and albums, a Broadway musical, and consistent record sales of their voluminous catalogue.
AC/DC
AC/DC is generally regarded as a titanic force in the world of heavy rock, occupying a sphere of seminal influence right alongside Kiss. These Australian guitar gods--led by Angus Young, an axe-wielding man-boy in a school uniform--churn out songs laced with sexual double entendre and heavy riffs. Since the mid-1970s, Angus and his brother, Malcolm, have survived a stormy band history, including the death of original singer/wildman Bon Scott, all the while bashing out their simplistic, yet highly addictive, brand of bluesy riff-rock.
Translation - Spanish 2Pac
2Pac comenzó su carrera a principios de los 90 en Digital Underground, un grupo rap-funk de Oakland, y se convirtió en la figura más polémica del rap, haciéndole sombra al mismísimo Snoop Dogg en la costa oeste y a su rival Notorious B.I.G. en la costa este. El nombre hace honor al indígena revolucionario peruano Túpac Amaru II. En sus letras hablaba de la autodeterminación negra y de la conciencia social sin perder su imagen de chico malo. De fama inigualable en vida, su afición por los adornos religiosos e icónicos le aseguró el estatus de mártir del rap tras su asesinato en 1996.
Abba
No hay muchos grupos que presuman de aparecer en un sello de correos, pero Abba lo ha logrado en su Suecia natal. Aunque claro, muy pocos grupos se convierten en el producto de exportación más identificable de su país. Su estratosférico éxito se basa en un pop alegre, con exquisitos arreglos y una producción impecable. Aunque dejaron el mundo de la música a principios de los años 80, el grupo sigue en boga gracias a las bandas tributo, a un musical de Broadway y, por si fuera poco, su vasta discografía no para de venderse.
AC/DC
A AC/DC se les considera una de las fuerzas titánicas del rock duro, equiparables en influencia a Kiss. Estos dioses australianos de la guitarra, liderados por Angus Young, un hombre con cuerpo de niño y vestido de colegial, producen como churros temas con insinuaciones sexuales y potentes riffs. Desde mediados de los 70, Angus y su hermano Malcolm han sobrevivido a la tormentosa trayectoria de la banda, incluida la muerte del indomable Bon Scott, sin perder de vista su rock simplista y adictivo, con esos riffs bluseros marca de la casa.
