2PAC HARD

About Me

Me, Myself, and I
Tupac's life and music are emblematic not only of the rap style, but the lifestyle associated with the genre. His life was so tumultuous that it is easy to ignore his musical accomplishments altogether. However, it was his lyrics and musical style that made him famous, and many consider 2Pac to be among the very best.

* Tupac Amaru means 'shining serpent' in Quechua, and was the name of the last royal Inca before that civilization was conquered by the Spanish. Shakur is Arabic for 'thankful for god'.

* Much effort has gone into bringing Tupac back to life through posthumous albums and in 2003, this trend continued with the release of the documentary Tupac: Resurrection. The film was produced under the supervision of Shakur's mother, and was narrated entirely with Tupac's own voice, from archival footage recorded before his death.

* Although the Tupac we know worked hard to cultivate his 'tough guy' image, one of the rapper's first loves was Shakespeare
