Product Details

Product Description

From Library Journal

Based on extensive interviews with hip-hop artist Shakur, including an unpublished online interview from June 1996 and another conducted two weeks before his drive-by shooting death, this book is both a richly illustrated celebration and a memorial.
Copyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.


From School Library Journal

YAAA collection of articles published in Vibe magazine since 1994 that present an in-depth look at Shakur and his music. The portrait is balanced and does not deify nor demonize the rap artist and, as one might expect, the language is raw. The subject's life is traced from his ghetto beginnings to his being gunned down in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas. The book is profusely illustrated and contains a chronology, a discography, and a filmology. It will appeal to fans of rap music.ARobert Burnham, R. E. Lee High School, Springfield, VA

5.0 out of 5 stars Tupac Shakur Book Is A Must-Buy!, April 26 2004
By Crazy Jim (Massachusetts) - See all my reviews
As a massive fan of the late great Tupac Shakur, there are few publishings that capture as much information and insight into his life and career as this amazing book from the good people at Vibe Magazine. Consisting of every Vibe article and interview written on Shakur between 1994-97, this gives even the most casual of Pac's fans more information than they could ever dream of. With features on his early career, his signing to Death Row, and his infamous interview with Kevin Powell from inside Clinton Correctional Facility where he denounced "Thug Life", it's all here. This book also contains some of the most informative material on the feud between Death Row Records and Bad Boy. You'll get everyone's side of the story on the Can-Am Studio shooting. You'll hear what both Suge and Puffy had to say about the East vs. West saga. You will also get to hear Pac at his rawest and most candid. If you are even the least bit interested in the amazing story of Tupac Shakur, you should pick up this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars huge fan, Nov 17 2003
By beamrgurl (vancouver, bc..canada) - See all my reviews
2pac is a legacy of our generation..he is and will always be the best, not only was he an awesome rapper, but he was also a good actor and poet. This book is very well done and covers so much. When he was shot the first time 5 times..and leading up to his unjustly death..i recommend this book to anyone if they want to learn about 2pac, he wasnt a bad man or a gangsta like most assume, he was just at the wrong place at the wrong time..or he just got involved with the wrong ppl...and like he said live by the gun..die by the gun..and that is exactly what happened to this man...may he rest in peace

5.0 out of 5 stars A good in depth book, Jun 6 2003
This book is not all about rap to start this review out. This book is more about his life and how he grew up in New York and lived on the bad part of the city. This book also mentions a lot of people who he has met many famous people before he was actually famous himself. The book tell some interesting facts about how his coward father left him and his mother alone and has some facts about how his sister was born and how she was also left by her father and how both of them were stuck with their mother that was on crack at the time and going through problems at school. I would highly recommend this book to any one who is interested in one of the worlds best and in depth rapper. I liked this book because it had a lot of facts and part where he ran into problems and how he handled most of them.
