New York. It grows in various districts of the city without
never having time to be made friends because of frequent removals.
Whereas it is still very young, his/her father, who belongs
to the movement of Black Panther, is condemned to a heavy prison
sentence. The life becomes of harder for the remainder of the
family which ends up settling in Oakland in California. Tupac,
delivered to him even, drag in the street and côtoie of
the not very advisable people, and ends up putting a finger
in the spiral of violence by selling drug. However, its meetings
of the street inspire it and it starts to write some texts of
rap which it interprets under the pseudo one of MC New York.
At twenty years,
in spite of a tormented course (multiple arrests, prison) and
tests with several groups (Strictly Dopes, DIGITAL Underground,
etc.)Tupac leaves its first album solo, "2Pacalypse Now",
which propels it on the front of the scene. Took by the swirl
of glory, Tupac tests itself with the cinema and it is also

of its wound, leaving the movement orphan rap. Since its death,
the myth of Tupac Shakur continuous of perdurer and many Cd
