Tupac Shakur is one of the greatest and most controversial artists of all time. More than a quarter of a century after his tragic death in 1996 at the age of just twenty-five, he continues to be one of the most misunderstood, complicated and prolific figures in modern history. Tupac's unapologetic lyrics, for which he was villainized by many at the time, read in these pages as prophecy. His cry of outrage in a country that repeatedly told Black men and women that their lives did not matter, continues to inspire his fans around the world. Staci Robinson - who knew Tupac as a young man and who was entrusted by his mother, Afeni Shakur, to write his biography - peels back the myths and unpacks the complexities that have shadowed Tupac's existence.
