Tupac Shakur is one of the greatest rappers to ever live. Shakur sold over 75 million records worldwide. In 2002, he was inducted into the Hip-Hop Hall of Fame. In 2017, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility. Rolling Stone named Shakur in its list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time. Outside music, Shakur also gained considerable success as an actor, with his starring roles as Bishop in Juice (1992), Lucky in Poetic Justice (1993) where he starred alongside Janet Jackson, Ezekiel in Gridlock’d (1997), and Jake in Gang Related (1997), all garnering praise from critics.
Shakur died on September 13, 1996 after being shot four times: once in the arm, once in the thigh, and twice in the chest the night of September 7, 1996. After one of those bullets punctured his right lung. He suffered from internal bleeding. The young phenom cause of death are respiratory failure and cardiopulmonary arrest associated with multiple gunshot wounds.
Conspiracies theorist believe Tupac is still alive and living in Cuba. So either Kamala Harris is out-of-touch with modern hip-hop, or a sitting US Senator with SCI Security Clearance that just slipped up and let everyone know Tupac is alive.
