I have become more and more interested in Tupac’s death. I have never really been interested in Tupac at all. I think it may have mainly been because I was never exposed to him. When he was alive, his music was not what I was particularly interested in, besides, my parents had the most control of what I listened to and rap was not a part of their ongoing interests therefore it was not a part of mine. After reading about Tupac’s death in class I quickly became very interested. I never truly knew why so many people continued to say that Tupac was still alive. Some people may have just been saying it just because other people were saying but there are real reasons why other people were saying it. I have found myself now questioning whether or not Tupac is still alive. It seems that there are far too many clues and signifiers that are clearly unclear, questionable, or just too much of a coincidence. Because I have never been a Tupac fan, I will not to take a biased approach on the whole situation. Tupac may still be alive but he could also be dead. The fact that many of his lyrics suggest that he knows that he is dead or going to be dead when the album drops rises suspicion. Was his death planned? If so why would he want to die? He may not be dead right? So he staged his death? The death may have been staged just for marketing purposes. That is understandable but after that marketing and money making technique no longer works, Tupac will have no more opportunity to make money off of his talent. This is an extremely interesting topic to investigate. If I was into investigation. By the way, if he isn’t dead where in the world could he be and what is he doing?LaTasha Moss
