    In this essay I goanna talk about Tupac Shakur, also known as 2pac. He do a lot of

    important things that all around the world appreciate.

    ´´Tupac Amaru Shakur also known as 2pac was born Lesane Parish Crooks, East

    Harlem,

    New York, June 16, 1971-Las Vegas; September 13, 1996. Was an American rapper

    Actor, poet and activist. He sold more than 150 million records worldwide until 2009´´

    , becoming the rapper with more sales in the world. Rolling Stone magazine ranked him

    as the best rapper of all time, on his list of the best rappers in history and About.com

    Named him the most influential rapper in history. His letters and revolutionary

    Speeches, many of them controversial, spoke of freedom, equality and criticism towards

    The government and the police. Also about growing up around the violence, because he

    Grew up in Harlem, a district with a lot of poverty, abuses towards women and the

    Difficulties of the neighborhoods. ´he was talented but problematic that came to adopt

    the aesthetics of the gangsta-rap of the 90s and paid the maximum price: was shot dead

    in Las Vegas on September 7, 1996 and died six days later. His murder has never been

    Resolved.

    ´´He began his musical career as a rebel with a cause: to articulate the tribulations and

    Injustices suffered by many African-Americans, often from a male point of view. His

    Ability to do so made him a spokesman not only for his own generation, but also for

    Those who continue to face the same struggle for equality. In death he became an icon

    that symbolizes the noble struggle, although in life his greatest battle was sometimes

    with himself. On the night of September 7, 1996, he suffered three gunshot wounds in a

    Gunfight from a car in the Las Vegas metropolitan area of Nevada. He died six days

    After respiratory failure and cardiac arrest at the University Medical Center in Las

    Vegas´´. 2pac do a lot of song and 1 song that it’s know like influenced a lot of people

    It’s called CHANGES. Is about how back in the days some people were racist and they

    called to black people Negros and that was like a offense to them they were felling bad

    about that and the police brutality was only with them. For example they threat the

    White people good with respect and the black with bad and disrespectful that is not

    Good and 2pac was equality for every Pearson no matter what you are. And was

    created in 1998. In1984, his family moved to Baltimore, Maryland where he became

    good friends with Jada Pinkest Smith. His family moved again in 1988 to Oakland,

    California. His first breakthrough in music came in 1991 as a member of the group

    Digital Underground. In the same year he received individual recognition for his album

    "2Pacalypse now, but this album was also the beginning of his notoriety as a leading

    figure of the gangster permutation of hip-hop, with references to cop killing and sexual

    violence. Many people in Shakur's life were involved with the Black Liberation Army;

    some were convicted of serious criminal offenses and imprisoned, including his mother
