His Diamond certified album All Eyez on Me (1996), the first double-length album in hip-hop history, abandoned his introspective lyrics for volatile gangsta rap. Shakur achieved further critical and commercial success with his follow-up albums Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z. With the release of his debut album 2Pacalypse Now in 1991, he became a central figure in West Coast hip hop for his conscious rap lyrics. Raised by his mother, he relocated to Baltimore in 1984 and to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1988. Shakur was born in New York City to parents who were both political activists and Black Panther Party members. Much of Shakur's music has been noted for addressing contemporary social issues that plagued inner cities, and he is considered a symbol of activism against inequality. Considered one of the most influential rappers of all time, Shakur is among the best-selling music artists, having sold more than 75 million records worldwide. His evolution as a rap artist, which was rooted in his upbringing AND his talent as a writer was never displayed.Tupac Amaru Shakur ( / ˈ t uː p ɑː k ʃ ə ˈ k ʊər/ TOO-pahk shə- KOOR born Lesane Parish Crooks, June 16, 1971 – September 13, 1996), better known by his stage name 2Pac and later by his alias Makaveli, was an American rapper and actor. Which is odd and frustrating because there is a WEALTH of information.first hand information and people to pull from about Tupac.
The story was extremely surface.never going further than what one can pull up on Wikipedia.Īccuracies and inaccuracies alike. There were several MISSED opportunities to dig deeper into Tupac's story, his motivation and who he really was at his core. But for the two of us.a C rated Pac motion picture biopic is a fail. We gave it the C for the elements mentioned above that, if absent, would have taken this movie to complete trash level. I walked out of the movie and was like 'Yeah that was like the chicken without the lawry's seasoning' 😑 and EVERYBODY knows chicken needs some good seasoning salt. It was released on his actual birthday (lol ok ok I reached for that one 😂) is the best casting we've seen yet in terms of Pac) I put an asterisk there because I'll come back to another aspect of this a little later. Afeni Shakur casting (Danai Gurira was perfect and the conversations between her and Pac in the movie were some of the refreshing moments) In the interest of time and FB space imma start bullet listing. Take it for what it is, but these are our opinions. Shay and I are diehard Tupac fans not only of his music but of his life, legacy, writings, etc. I even avoided the reviews that were coming out before I saw it. I think we both went in with level expectations and with an open mind. Therefore, this was not written in a bubble. We compared our notes and thoughts after seeing the movie (she saw it twice and I saw it once) and I also got some additional quick input from a few others. We ready! First off I wrote this review together with my Ride of Die sis and good good girlfriend Shawnna (Shay). *Disney and Marvel Codes do not include Disney Movie Insider/Rewards points.
