His skill in doing so made him a spokesperson not just for his own generation but for subsequent ones who continue to face the same struggle for equality.

In life, his biggest battle was sometimes with himself. As fate drove him towards the nihilism of gangsta rap, and into the arms of the controversial Death Row Records impresario Suge Knight , the boundaries between Shakur's art and his life became increasingly blurred — with tragic consequences. Tupac was born on June 16, , in Harlem, New York. His mother, Afeni, was raising two children on her own and struggled for money.

The family moved homes often, sometimes staying in shelters. They moved to Baltimore, where Tupac enrolled at the prestigious Baltimore School for the Arts, at which he felt "the freest I ever felt. Tupac was named Lesane Parish Crooks at birth. After joining the Black Panther party, his mother changed his first name to Tupac Amaru, a Peruvian revolutionary who was killed by the Spanish.

She became pregnant with Tupac in while on bail after being charged with conspiring to set off a race war. Afeni was acquitted the following year after successfully defending herself in court, displaying a gift for oration that her son would inherit.

Afeni died in May at the age of Tupac's father, Billy Garland, was also a Panther but lost contact with Afeni when Tupac was five years old.

The rapper would not see his father again until he was Afeni gave birth to a daughter, Sekiya, two years after Tupac.

She had a cameo in his music video for 'Strictly 4 My Niggaz. It was about survival, and it had always been about survival between us," she said. It turned out to be a "mean little ghetto," according to Robert Sam Anison's comprehensive posthumous feature on Tupac for Vanity Fair in It was in Marin City that Afeni succumbed to crack addiction — a drug her son, Tupac, would sell on the same streets where his mother bought her supply. Tupac's love for hip hop would steer him away from a life of crime for a while, at least.

At 17, in the spring of , he met an older white woman, Leila Steinberg, in a park. They struck up a conversation about Winnie Mandela. Steinberg would later recall "a young man with fan-like eyelashes, overflowing charisma, and the most infectious laugh. By the time they met, Tupac was obsessively writing poetry and convinced Steinberg, who had no music-industry experience, to become his manager.

Steinberg was eventually able to get Tupac in front of music manager Atron Gregory, who secured a gig for him in as a roadie and dancer for the hip hop group Digital Underground. He soon stepped up to the mic, making his recording debut in on Same Song , which soundtracked the Dan Aykroyd comedy Nothing but Trouble. After the band's manager, Gregory, took over from Steinberg, he landed Tupac a deal with Interscope Records.

A month after Sons of the P hit the stores came 2Pacalypse Now , Tupac's debut album as a solo artist. Tupac often complained that he was misunderstood. To me a perfect album talks about the hard stuff and the fun and caring stuff. The thing that bothers me is that it seems like a lot of the sensitive stuff I write just goes unnoticed.
