[Tupac]: I'm playin' a soldier thats all. Just like KRS-One, he called himself
God. I ain't calling me God. I'm just one doing my part on where I think hip hop should
go. Everybody else doing there thing on where hip hop should go....I think hip hop should
be about more money, crazier sounds, different beats MORE MONEY. Cause wit more money we
could do something for the communities that these hip hop artists are coming out of.
[Angie]: That's a positive thing.
[Tupac]: By getting more artists on part singing we could go into more coffee
shops and do more performances. We've been performing this shit since the 70's. Ya know
what I mean? Lets get some papers,get some buildings, get some community centers. Ya can't
do that without money.
[Angie]: Okay, so... but do you think thats gonna, I mean do you think that its
gonna be boom take care of your business, boom its over, boom everything is happily ever
after? You know when you attack somebody and they attack you back, you attack them, they
attack y... [note: Angie did not get a chance to complete the word "you" since
she pissed Tupac off!]
[Tupac]: That's why I don't attack! You think I'm gonna smack these niggas? I
aint smacking these niggas.
[Angie]: I think by you saying that...
[Tupac]: [really heated] Do you see me running into Bad Boy wit a gun? Does it
look like I'm doing drive-bys on these niggas? No...I'm not that nigga, I..... Fa real I
don't give a fuck if nobody understands but I'm a soldier.
[Angie]: But it's affecting other people though. That's the problem.
[Tupac]: [almost yelling] Other people need to just know that life's a bitch!
[Angie]: [laughing]
[Tupac]: Sometimes this shit, this shit I mean, damn life's a bitch and
sometimes ya know what? It get hot. What they thought they were just gonna make millions
and there wasn't gonna be no problems? You wanna be in the rap game, hustle for it, fight
for this shit just like I had to do. I done took bullets and went ta jail for this rap
shit, done caught cases and got sued and paid millions for this rap shit. About a
muthafucka being uncomfortable cause I'm doing my thing, I don't give a fuck for real..

This Site's Mission
The site showcases Tupac Shakur, a multi-talented legend, who was born in the Bronx, New York on June 16, 1971 and died from fatal gun shot wounds in Las Vegas, Nevada on September 13, 1996.
He is considered by many to be the greatest rapper of all time.
2Pac's lyrics always went deep into the meaning of many political and social subjects including violence, drug abuse, teenage pregnancy and broken families.
2Pac was well read as noted by his extensive reading list. 2Pac's poetry also reflected his many sides, some poems were motivated by love, some sought self-understanding and others were angry responses to the cruel injustices of American society.
Not only famous for his music, he was also a well respected actor with several films.
2Pac was down to die for everything he represented. He was very open and always expressed his mind. Some people consider 2Pac a modern-day prophet. Reading some of 2Pac's interviews, lyrics and quotes, its not hard to see why.
Being real and upfront, trouble always seemed to come naturally. Tupac was charged with rape, a crime he did not commit, but was still convicted of sodomy (forcibly touching the buttocks). Many witnesses seen the girl who made these accusations voluntarily give 2Pac oral sex on a night club dance floor. Tupac was also charged with shooting two off-duty police officers, but those charges were dropped due to insufficient evidence.
The fatal shooting in Vegas was the second shooting 2Pac was involved. The first occured in 1994 in New York.
Most likely, 2Pac's killer was Orlando Anderson, a south-side crip. Theories abound as to who coordinated the hit. Some believe it happened spur of the moment out of Orlando's rage. Others believe Suge Knight had 2Pac killed. The Las Vegas Times recently reported Biggie Smalls had 2Pac killed. Still others, believe it was an elaborate scheme and 2Pac is still alive (he faked his own death).
This site contains pictures of 2Pac, the latest news about 2Pac products and projects, information on 2Pac's tattoos, and anything else 2Pac related. The mission of this site is to show all sides of Tupac -- his thoughts, inspirations, and direction in life. All of this is to be shown through Tupac's lyrics, poetry, music videos and interviews. Hopefully, we can give you a better understanding of Tupac Shakur.
