Tupac Shakur was a philosopher, rap artist, and actor. He was a great person, and he gives all the credit to his mom. He learned many great morals from her, then spread them to the world in interviews, lyrics, and the philosophy he wrote. Once she passed, he didn't stand strong for long, leaving many people around the world to give him the wrong image.

He was born in Manhattan, New York then later moved to LA where his riches started. He sold more than 75,000,000 records, with around eleven albums. Also, starred in fourteen films. He also has fourteen documentaries where he states many great things.

When he was born his name was "Lesane Parish Crooks" for protection, because his mother and father were active members of the Black Panther Party. Because of this, his family had to move more than a few times.

When Tupac Shakur moved to California, he started his acting career at age twelve. Around age fourteen he started his documentaries, and rapping career. The first song he wrote was for one of his movies, and continued from there. He was very successful, but had many problems with the law. Also, because of his success and claim of "thug life" he had much drama to look out for.

The night of the Mike Tyson show, Tupac Shakur was killed in a casino, the murderer is yet to be found. Some say it might have something to do with the Notorious B.I.G.'s death, some say it was a detective that shot him. His name is still showing up everywhere till this day, and albums have still been released, leaving a rumor that 2pac is still alive. In my opinion he did indeed pass away but is one in a million.
