Tupac had a sensitive side, however, and this is apparent in his lyrics and singles like ‘Dear Mama.’ Following a prison sentence, Suge Knight, CEO of Death Row Records, bailed Tupac out after nine months in exchange for a three-record deal with him. It topped the charts at number one but this also opened him up to charges of exploitation. His outlaw antics paved the way for his album “Me Against the World” in 1995. Still, his music career progressed, rivaling Snoop Dogg in 1994 as the most controversial figure in the rap industry due to his serving jail time. Tupac rose to stardom within a year but, unfortunately, also started having run-ins with the law.

He quickly became the buzz around town, and soon entered Hollywood with his acclaimed performance in the movie “Juice,” directed by Ernest Dickerson in 1992. He started off as a second-string rapper and dancer for Digital Underground and went on to produce and release his debut album “2Pacalypse Now” in 1991. Tupac had established himself as one of the definitive rappers of the ’90s era. Tupac became a victim of the world of gangster rap and a tragic symbol, as he was assassinated when he had so much more to share with the world, just like so many others who left us too soon.
The rawness of his lyrics and the way he rapped resonated with an entire generation and, to this day, his music deeply touches and speaks to people around the world.
Tupac Shakur, known by his stage names 2Pac, Pac, and Makaveli, is a widely respected rap icon, not just in the music industry but also outside it for his poetic deliverance of words, character, and outlook on life.
