Tupac Amaru Shakur (June 16, 1971 – September 13, 1996), known by his stage names 2Pac (or simply Pac) and Makaveli, was an American rapper and actor. Shakur has sold over 75 million albums worldwide as of 2007, making him one of the best-selling music artists in the world. Rolling Stone Magazine named him the 86th Greatest Artist of All Time.
In addition to his career as a rap artist, he was also an actor. The themes of most of Tupac's songs are the violence and hardship in inner cities, racism, other social problems, and conflicts with other rappers during the East Coast – West Coast hip hop rivalry. Shakur began his career as a roadie, backup dancer, and MC for the alternative hip hop group Digital Underground. Afeni Shakur, mother of 2pac, was involved with the Black Panthers, and 2pac made reference to the organization in the song Changes. 2pac was involved in a West-coast East-coast rivalry after a major feud with East-coast rappers, producers and record-label members of staff. On September 7, 1996, Shakur was shot four times in the Las Vegas metropolitan area of Nevada. He was taken to the University Medical Center, where he died six days later of respiratory failure and cardiac arrest.[9]

HOT men at their hottest!!!!! (12 person items)"Gridlocked: I will say one thing about this man....hes basically always looking beautiful, maybe its all the talent! But since this list is about people at their hottest it would most certainly be gridlocked. In this movie you get the pleasure of seeing his banging body, those beautiful eyelashes (which would make any girl jealous)that award winning smile and Tupac just being as COOL as ever!!! R.I.P"

Shocking deaths for me. (11 person items)" June 16, 1971 – September 13, 1996 / COD: drive-by shooting to his car, which he was in.
Till this day, nobody has a clue who murdered Tupac. Honestly, they would have a better chance of catching the killer if the crime scene was taken care of better. As soon as everybody knew that Tupac was shot, 6 days later died, people automatically assumed Suge Knight had something to do with it, but he was not talking. That was the problem, nobody talked. "
Quotes i agree with (22 person items)"“I know it seems hard sometimes but remember one thing.
Through every dark night, theres a bright day after that.
So no matter how hard it get, stick your chest out, keep ya head up.... and handle it.
During your life, never stop dreaming. No one can take away your dreams
“only god can judge me
I don't mean to sound sleezy but tease me I don't want it if it's that easy
You can spend minutes, hours, days, weeks, or even months over-analyzing a situation; trying to put the pieces togethe"
