Actor

Tupac Shakur was an American rapper and actor who came to be anointed with the criminal beauty of the 1990s, and at his death he became a portrait of a good struggle. He has sold 75 million albums so far, making him one of the best-selling artists of all time. A sympathetic, talented and troubled soul, Tupac was shot dead in Las Vegas on September 7, 1996, and died six days later. His murder has never been resolved. Tupac began his musical career as a heretic with the intention of exposing the misery and injustice that so many Americans endured. His ability to do that made him a speaker not only for his generation but also for his followers who continued to face the same struggle for equality. In life, his biggest battle he sometimes had. As the fate propelled him to victory in gangsta rap, and in the arms of the controversial Death Row Records controversy Suge Knight, the boundaries between Shark's art and his life became increasingly dim - with disastrous consequences.
