Sometimes in both early and late 90's I barely know the lyrics of rap song because I don't seem to get what they're saying. So I don't ended up not liking rap songs. Something then happened on September 07,1997 which was on Saturday, while coming from the sport complex to watch the iron Mick Tyson's fight, Tupac was allegedly shot five times by an unidentified gun men and he was pronounced dead on the September 13, 1997. His death and circumstances surrounding it made noise and draw my attention to find out more about Tupac, his life and music.

From my reading, I found out that Tupac was a person who fight against injustice and also for the less privileged. He was a musician and an entertainer. He studied drama at Baltimore School for the Arts where he rapped under the then MC New York and also as a young man he also studied ballet and dance. Tupac first appearance on stage was when he was 12 years old when he acted in a play titled 'A raising in the sun' in his then school at Harlem 127th. Tupac Shakur was born on June 16,1971 in Brooklyn New York. His mother changed his name to Tupac Amaru after an Inca Indian revolutionary. Tupac Amaru meaning Shinning Serpent, Shakur means thankful to God in Arabic.

Will continue this tread tomorrow.
