Legends never die…
#KeepYaHeadUp ❤

Collection of Pac pics that touch my soul. I will never forget my close friend calling me up at 5am in the UK to tell me Pac was dead. I was working three jobs at the time and sleep was precious, but she was weeping and I needed to comfort her. It was the second time he was shot, multiple gunshots both times, guess we thought he was infallible and would make it through again. He didn’t. I had been annoyed at his willingness to keep walking the dark side. It seemed this was inevitable, and as a fan who followed his work from the movie Juice, before he became a big rapper, it was frustrating. I saw so much brilliance and potential, and now it was just gone. But he was on fire and he could not stop the heat from emitting… Who were we to choose his path? His weapons were pen and paper and he loved them, as I do. His words were powerful, his emotions raw, his intellect – razor sharp. We were not ready to let him go, but it was the life he chose.
… I wish we could have seen him grow older, have children, mentor, lead. It was not to be… but we can keep your words alive ❤

What Tupac track will you listen to today?
