button.gif (123 bytes) "When my heart can beat no more - I hope I die for a principle or a belief that I have lived for - I will die before my time because I already feel the shadow's depth - So much I wanted to accomplish before I reached my death - I have come to grips with possibility and wiped the last I loved all who were positive in the event of my demise " - an unpublished poem by 2Pac (1992) that he requested to be shared after his death

 
TIMELINE

2Pacbutton.gif (123 bytes) 2Pac - Tupac Shakur - was born in New York City, the son of Black Panther member, Afeni Shakur who was pregnant with 2Pac while in jail on bombing charges. When 2Pac was 15, his family moved to Baltimore where 2Pac wrote his first rap under the name MC New York. Three years later, 2Pac's family would move to California and 2Pac began selling drugs. By the time 2Pac was 25 years old, he had been arrested, jailed, shot, involved with gangs, and become one of the biggest rap stars ever. 2Pac wrote, sang and rapped about what he knew about, what he experienced, and what he felt. Before a shooting incident in Las Vegas that eventually took his life, 2Pac had perfected the combination of gansta rap music and poetic messages. His music brought the despair and hard life of the ghetto to the mainstream. Ironically, 2Pac's gansta rap image has now become a symbol of the results of hardcore rap. 2Pac was originally a member of the rap act Digital Underground in the late 80s as a combination roadie, dancer, and rapper. The group hit it big in 1990 with the hit "Humpty Dance," but 2Pac left the group in 1991 to strike out on his own.
