Tupac Shakur was one of rap music's brightest and most controversial starts. His first 'gangster rap' album 2Pacalypse Now, drew on his experiences to descrive life as a gang member in the ghetto. It launched a phenomenally succcessful music and film carer, with multi-platinum record sales and roles in movies such as JUICE and GRIDLOCK'D. He continued his life as a gang member in LA and ultimately died the death of one when he was gunned down in a drive-by-shooting at the age of 25. With exclusive interviews, this is the first book to pay tribute to an extraordinary life.
